Hello, and welcome to this episode of our show.
And they're always fun favorite topics for me, but this is one
that's really close to my heart, and this one is
think bigger. It's not even think
big, it's think bigger. And
I. The idea is that you're taking
(00:34):
what you feel, your path, your purpose,
your direction, is that you're drawn to that, what you're
passionate about. And then you just do this
experiment where you really blow it up and you
start visualizing if there's absolutely no limitations.
And the limitations that we usually have when we're looking at something
(00:56):
big we want to do would be, obviously, time and money, and
time being the constraints of a job or constraints
of family. But if you really want to go big,
if you really want to do this big thing, think
bigger. And so that's what this episode is about. But
we're first going to recap the last episode, because at the
(01:19):
last episode, I kind of threw out there one of my big ideas that I
want to accomplish in this lifetime, which is the, this
new type of matchmaking service, one where
it feels like an arranged marriage,
where you're not doing the picking. And
then people,
(01:42):
the potential matches
are actually not developing their profile,
they're not developing their wish list, their family
members are doing this, that,
you know, one of the ideas was date my dad, match my mom. Those sort
of things where kids, that they
(02:05):
are uncomfortable with the loneliness of their parents, and they
really feel that if that person had some type of
partner or somebody to fill the gaps, that they
would, things would feel more in order. They would feel more
settled. You know, I think I explained this,
that like most of my 50 something, 60 something
(02:26):
girlfriends, they do not want to be on dating sites. They've
had, they have one or two horrible experiences, and they just check out,
and they would really like someone to introduce them to, somebody that would be a
good match. And I think, you know, so you could match your
friends on the site, you could match your, again, children matching
parents, or parents matching children, too. But the
(02:48):
whole idea is that you're not doing the picking, that other people are doing the
picking for you. And then the second part of it is that they
actually, all the people that are on
this site, this database of potential
people are going through this program. So
(03:10):
they're learning how to have an absolutely wonderful
relationship. And when I first was
introduced to the program, the three principles,
the host, which is the person that introduced me, is my wonderful friends Bob
and Marty Schall. They host the happy class in Akron.
And they play this video, and the
(03:33):
video was Jan and Chip
Chipman. And that's easy to remember because who has two
first parts of their names, like Bob Roberts,
so Chip Chipman. And they talk about their
experience, they talk about their beautiful
relationship that they have, how, you know, going through this,
(03:55):
all those things that bother you about your spouse, all those
things that are, you know, in your mind, like, all this drives me crazy. That
drives me crazy. You're trying to change this person. You're trying to,
you know, you're trying to get them to be something that you have this ideal
in your head of what a husband or a father or anything should
be. And you're forcing this
(04:17):
change. And when you're in this program, you realize that
fundamentally everybody is absolutely fine, there's nothing wrong with them,
you know? And so what you do is you just change your
whole approach and you just start supporting each other.
And, you know, one person has a vision of what they
need to do with their lifetime, and you have a vision of what you need
(04:38):
to do with your lifetime. And you find
alignment in those and you find how to support each other in where
they want to go and what they need. And it becomes this really mutual
working together. And so going through this program before you
start being matched is that you're open to this,
that it's not only the physical, it's
(05:01):
this alignment of goals, this alignment of
working together, this alignment of finding this
partner that is going to love adore you, support
you, be the person you need to help you achieve your
greatness. And so that's my
vision and so my goal. So, you know, when you're
(05:23):
thinking big, you don't necessarily have to
think, I don't know how to do this, I don't know how to make it
happen. I don't know where to go or where to start.
So for me, being an entrepreneur, it's just finding the right partner to
collaborate. Maybe it would be a new spinoff of
eHarmony, somebody that's already got all the technology, the database, they've
(05:44):
got everything they need, but they want to target
this audience that has become frustrated by the dating process,
they're frustrated by online dating, and
they want to have something different that is a little bit
deeper, a little bit more meaningful and
has all the elements of success. So it would be
(06:07):
the matching is not by the person, the matching is by other people that
know them. And then going through this program, those
things that would say, this isn't the right person for
me because of all these reasons. So once you've gone through the, you
know, the initial excitement of the relationship, there's
this, you know, questioning is, you know, you begin to
(06:29):
really start to throw all the questions in the mix. And the idea
is you're not looking at the person from
a who they are on the outside. You're
looking at the person from, like, more of a, you know,
this deeper, spiritual. You're looking for
this connection with their soul. When you're looking at
(06:51):
it from this point, then, is this the right person to support me on
my journey? And the whole, the why for the
relationship changes? And then things that may
have been a deal breaker in the past are no longer a deal breaker because
the alignment is with what you're supposed to be doing in this
lifetime. And so the ability to capture that ability to take
(07:13):
away all that, you know, the judgment, which is really
what ends up destroying relationships is judging.
You know, is this working? Is that working? Is this person, you know, you just
start judging everything. You're taking the judgment out of it, and you're
just really looking at the core things. Is there an
alignment here that would be successful? And
(07:35):
so it's a different model. It's a different. But it's, it's
saying, I've got this idea, I've got this program that works. I've got
this amazing relationship that I've had with my husband that we've
gone from this place where a lot of things really bothered me about him.
You know, there's those things churning your line in your mind
about them. You know, they're just constantly aggravating you, and where they just no
(07:57):
longer bother you anymore. You just, they're no longer issues. They're no longer. It just
isn't, isn't part of it. And you have this beautiful, supportive
relationship, and people even come up to us, they go, oh, my gosh,
you guys have such a wonderful relationship, and we're like, yeah,
I really. I've never had the courage to start telling them why.
I've never had the courage. So if they listen to this, they're like, why didn't
(08:20):
you tell us? You know? But I've never had the courage to say, hey, you
know, I've got this program. You know, it actually, you know, really
helps build this absolute beautiful relationship.
But, you know, it's, it's something that
works. So it's the idea that you think
bigger. It's the idea that I have these big ideas. I
(08:40):
don't have to be the person that actually executes them, but I have
something, a component of this, that I can improve and I can
solve some of the biggest problems we face. So one of the
problems that, so these are my think bigger ideas. So one of the
problems I really wanna solve is loneliness. And so the matchmaking is a
component of that. The other component of it is
(09:03):
these interest groups that have a similar
journey to yourself. There is a
camaraderie when people have been through the same
experiences, but they have
the same experiences based on the negative
part of it, not the positive part of it, which
(09:23):
is we've got through it, we've
been able to let go of it. We've been able to find a place where
we're happy again. And so whatever that
is, that trauma, whatever they went through, that,
there's this whole group of models that are saying, hey, this is the
other side of it, and this is how you get there. So there's
(09:45):
this. And so bringing these people together
to build awareness that you don't have to stay in the suffering of whatever
happened to you, that this is actually part of your journey, and you don't have
to suffer. You don't have to be defined by what happened in the
past. Because when you start to live in the place where you're a perfect
soul, you came into this world, you're perfect. You die. That perfect soul
(10:08):
dies and then happens whatever happens after, to you. But
there's nothing that can be heard, like, there's nothing that can be destroyed,
there's nothing that can be gone, that, that good. The
core part, the essence of who you are, is always there. That when
you start to operate from that, no matter what happens outside, no matter what happens,
what's experienced, no matter how, no matter what your programming
(10:30):
is, no matter what the, the patterns that you've told yourself and
you believe, all of that can just be reprogrammed, it can
disappear, and you can start to operate from this place. And
so, and that's really where the idea flow is.
That's where all the answers are. There's just so many ideas.
And you can say that that's, you know, back to episode
(10:52):
one. That's the mothership, you know, sending down
the ideas. It's the universe. It's, if, you know, you're
religious, that's God, that's spirit, holy spirit,
that's whatever that is. There is something there.
There's something to it. There's this flow of ideas that you
can tap into, this inspiration, this wisdom. And
(11:14):
living from this place is just amazing.
And then everybody you meet, you're no
longer judging them. You're just trying
to connect soul to soul with them. And that's what I love
about my children. Yeah, of course, I'm proud that
they're doctors, but it's not that they're
(11:35):
their doctors, because, again, we're not in a world of, like,
consumerism and materialism anymore. We're in a world of
alignment. And they have
taken every obstacle and said, that's not an obstacle. And
they've worked. They've worked to what they want to do. But that's not
even the proud part. What the proud part
(11:57):
is when you see.
So occasionally, obviously, I can't be
in the room with my daughters, but when we're in
public and there's somebody around us that needs help
or they need assistance with something, this,
or we're around an old person, like my oldest
(12:20):
daughter. That's her. She loves old people. Just
loves old people. And the.
The idea is that you see the patient, you
know, you see that hole, you see the person you don't
see. You're not judging the circumstances that got them
there. You're not judging. You're just supporting them where they are. And she
(12:42):
is just such, so beautiful at connecting with
these old people. It's just. It's like a really moving
experience. The way she talks to them, the way she connects with them, the
way she sees them, to the way she supports them. It's like
everything I've been trying to teach them, that they're like, no, mom, that's gentle.
You sound like a cult mom. You know, like, that's all that, you know, and
(13:05):
that's how your kids are. But they actually got the message. They got the
message. They see the person, they support the person, they connect with the
person, and that there's this healing moment
there where that person is being heard.
My goal would be that then that they can show the
person that the suffering, the mental
(13:27):
suffering component of this doesn't need to be there. Yes, there is a
physical suffering. There is physical pain. But we can actually.
If you really get good at this, if you really embrace this whole idea and
everything that you don't have to live in your head. You don't have to be
turning on the victim of it,
you know, I'm never gonna be able to do this. I'm never gonna be able
(13:48):
to do this again. You know, this pain, this
is that pain moves to experiencing it, the
way animals experience it, where they don't have
a conscience, they're aware of it. They can
experience the pain. They can have it, but it's not in the forefront where it's
creating this mental suffering, because, remember, our whole
(14:10):
world is thought so anyway,
so that you can help lift that burden of mental suffering. You can
teach people, and I don't know how you would do this through your practice other
than just model it, but you can teach people
that, yes, the rules have changed for
you. Yes, the way you show up in this world has changed for you.
(14:32):
But there's still, there's always possibilities, there's always
opportunities. There's always a way to flip this from a
negative into a positive, which is everything that we talk about here
is just living in this world of opportunity. And living
everything is an opportunity. Yes, it is not ideal.
Yes, it doesn't align with the plan, but maybe it
(14:54):
is the plan and that you're going to switch, you're going
to flip, you're going to move this. So one of my big goals is to
eliminate all the mental suffering in the world. It's to eliminate
all the judgment, all the isms. Everybody's
operating soul to soul. Everybody's out of their head. Like,
nobody sees anybody as different to themselves. We're all united.
(15:16):
We're all operating from this higher, this higher place,
and we're all open to all the possibilities of what can happen.
And so the big goals. So one is the matchmaking, I want to
solve loneliness. Two, the big goals are to eliminate
mental suffering. Three is to then develop
these like minded forums that are going to change the world. They're saying, hey,
(15:40):
I've used this. I've got past it. Yes, you're still going to have the physical
pain, but these are all the ways I've dealt with it. And this is, and
so it's support groups
that are really designed to say
present success. Like, okay, I
can't do this anymore, but this is how I flipped it. This is what I'm
(16:01):
doing now. I can't do this anymore. And so it's
opening up a world of hope and opportunity to everybody
that is stuck in their heads. And
then, so that's the other model, is these like minded groups, and then
with these like minded groups that we're solving every problem that the world
faces. So where there's drought, how do we bring water, how do
(16:23):
we move populations? How do we build jobs for populations?
How do you deal with what's going on with the warming of
our world? And then how do we fix global warming? Because
what, you know is that the
indigenous people know how to solve this problem. You
know, the people that are closest to the earth, they know how to solve this
(16:47):
problem. And so how do we listen to them and how do we take their
ideas, and how do we execute those ideas, and how can we do
it? Because everything's driven by profit. How can we
make those ideas for profit ideas,
you know, how can we fund the, the
problems that exist in this world? So it's these groups, it's these
(17:09):
forums, it's these idea banks, these,
this harvesting of ideas, and then these
incubators of ideas to then come up with
bigger solutions, bigger problems, and then just
everybody start to live from this better place instead of the worst of
ourselves, to live from the best of ourselves. And
(17:31):
it's a very big idea. All my ideas are very big. I'm just looking for
the right partners to collaborate with, to my
partners to collaborate with, to join with, to help support
all of these missions, and then to encourage everybody
to do the same. You know, everything in your life starts
the small problems. You know, start with
(17:54):
what is really like. If there's one thing you need to change right now, what
is that? You know, put it out there, go to bed on it, sleep on
it, do two minutes of brainstorming every morning, all the ideas,
and always think about the ideas. Like, there are no limitations.
Like, time and money are not a limitation,
talent is not a limitation. You can find somebody who can
(18:16):
help you with the pieces, parts. It's really how do you solve these
problems? And what happens is, when you shift and you start
looking at opportunities and possibilities, the momentum that
you create just starts to attract alignment
and all the things you need to move it. This is a note from our
sponsor, me. And
(18:39):
this is coming from one of our amazing clients, treetops.
And if you're looking to plan the. Ultimate family
vacation, northern Michigan is definitely where you should
go. Treetops can be your base camp. It's
just an amazing resort where
nature meets a venture. And whether it's summer or
(19:01):
winter, with extreme tubing and dog sledding, or in summer, you
can go to the skybridge, Mackinac island, sleeping bear
dunes, every outdoor activity that you can
imagine, go to treetops.com. and
this is where you're going to plan this incredible vacation and
memory for your families and get super creative, too.
(19:23):
They're huge ideas, and my goal is to just
talk through how these are working and inspire you
to make these changes that are of just really
fundamental to this whole currency of happiness and
this whole currency of. At
the end of the day, I look back on my life
(19:46):
and said, say nothing held me back.
There was no barrier that I couldn't step around. You know,
you're not going to push barriers out of the way, but you can come up
with creative ways to step around those barriers. There's nothing
that stopped me from doing what I was supposed to do in this
lifetime, and I feel good about it.
(20:08):
And at the end of the day, once you get past everything else,
it's the energy of love and kindness and
this positive energy of love that you're just
putting more and more and more and more out there. And
it's not about you anymore. It becomes about the
(20:28):
creation of this, you know, and we talked a little bit about
it in the last episode with this vibration where you're just
constantly, you're constantly doing something bigger, something great
or something where you're changing lives, you're impacting
lives, and you're showing people that
the suffering doesn't need to be there anymore, that something that's just,
(20:50):
it's just built into our programming that we have to, like, worry and churn
and suffer and be in our heads about it. And
then how to bring out of that, how to bring your greatness, how to bring
your potential, and how to bring out what you can do with this
lifetime. And so it's operating from a bigger
why, it's operating from a bigger purpose. And it just
(21:11):
is really exciting to be just hopefully a little
voice, a coach that's behind you saying, hey, I did this.
These are the big things I accomplished. I just connected with the
right partners. I connected with the right people to help me get there. This is
how it worked. I didn't have to have a bazillion dollars to do
this. I work 50 hours a week. I don't have a zillion
(21:35):
hours of time to do this, but I'm going to do these things and I'm
going to make them happen. So at the end of
the day, it's owning your experience,
it's owning your journey, and it's owning your happiness.
And I hope this was a little
inspirational. And I wish everybody
(21:56):
a fantastic week of growth and creativity.
Thank you.
