Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are so successful and you are always on the go,
you perform and outperformeveryone and you achieved so
much in your life.
You've done all the business.
You are looking after family,you look after everyone, you are
loyal to your friends, to yourfriends, and there is always

(00:28):
this type of feeling withinyourself that you sometimes feel
guilty to be successful.
I know that feeling because Iwas there.
I was feeling like if I wouldjust downplay myself a little
bit, then I will be connected topeople on a much more deeper
level.
I was afraid to show all thesuccess and the power that I had

(00:51):
within because of the fear oflosing them.
So this is the twist that wesometimes feel inside and we
cannot resolve it because wedon't know why.
Why we need to downplayourselves.
Because we feel and see peoplearound us, even in our families

(01:13):
or in our relative circle, thatpeople are jealous, they kind of
you know, resentful.
They jealous.
They always have this um kindof hidden agenda towards you
because you are so successful.
And also you feel so lonely inthis um, in this state, because

(01:41):
you feel like no one reallyunderstands you.
You feel like you're living inthe island of your own creation
and there is no way out.
So I know how painful thisstate is, because you're living
and existing in this space ofwho you are not and it is really

(02:09):
hard because this requires tohave your energy twisted and
present to the outside world theperson that you are not and
your beautiful, soft, loving,kind and very strong, powerful
nature is not in alignment withthis and it creates this tension

(02:35):
and conflict within that you'recarrying and you just try and
try and try to have connectionwith your loved ones on a deeper
level and you don't know why.
Because you have that fear,that fear that they not going to
love you and you then downplayto be different.

(03:02):
Well, I know how you feel.
I've been there myself and itis a painful place to be and
very, very lonely.
But the good news is that, if wetake that first step and start
to ask these questions, why isit?

(03:22):
Why is it that I'm having somuch success but it's not
translate into my internalfulfillment, happiness and joy?
Why?
Why I have this wall betweenmyself and my loved ones or the
relatives or friends and I needto somehow pretend to be

(03:43):
different?
Well, it is all sits in thatunconscious level and we don't
know how to approach it becausewe feel that we're so strong and
we can control and do anythingand we just miss that little
point to ask for help.

(04:03):
And it's easy to fix and learnhow to understand your own
nature and start to be you witheveryone and everything around,
and then you would not evennotice how quickly you build
connections, how quickly youbuild it so deep and authentic

(04:27):
that people would justmagnetized by you and they will
enter your life with a very,very positive intentions and
they will be um so enjoying tobe with you and understand you,
and that you're not going to belonely.
So hit the button below and bookyour mapping session with me if

(04:52):
you are curious, if you wouldlike to understand how you can
fix that problem.
How can you just be yourself inany situations, not downplay
yourself or not upplay yourselfand just be like everyone else,
but stepping into that naturalinternal power that we all hold

(05:17):
and have.
But for some reason we try tofind all these different ways
not to step into our power butplay something different.
So thank you so much.
I hope you're going to come andbook your mapping session with
me and we can sort it out.
And if I would feel that we'renot matched, I can help you, to

(05:43):
point you in the right direction.
