Latest / AWAKEN with Dylan Ayaloo: Inner Work, Healing, Yoga & Meditation / [EP12] How to ask for money when someone owes me
Transcript
- 0:00Feeling resistant, embarrassed, afraid, asking money back from someone that owes you.
- 0:05And I think, you know, this is, yep, we're talking about abundance and worth.
- 0:11But really, it's also relationship dynamics, right?
- 0:17So I say relationship doesn't have to be intimate.
- 0:19It sounds like friends here or family.
- 0:22And one of the things I've learned is that because you love that person,
- 0:30love that person um i'm willing to have the difficult conversation first because i care
- 0:36about them because i love them i'm more interested in the long term and i would rather have what
- 0:42seems like a potential conflict right like a conversation which could result in conflict
- 0:48and the conflict kind of almost never comes if you're able to be very clear of your intention
- 1:00that for me, I'll speak for myself again,
- 1:02I love this person and I'm willing to have
- 1:06a short-term conflict if it does come to that
- 1:10or not agreeing, so it doesn't even have to be a disagreement
- 1:14but it's like we're just not agreeing
- 1:17and for it to be uncomfortable, I'm willing to have the short-term discomfort
- 1:22because I'm committed to the long-term, so therefore I'm willing
- 1:27conversation. And money is just, you know, that's why it's one of the six key areas of what we work on in a circle. We start that journey and awaken. Because it's an area that is loaded with our story.
- 1:45right so there's a lot to heal there for most of us around this energy of money and you know we
- 1:52might have been passed down the beliefs you know it's generational it's societal it's you know it's
- 1:57all around or it's just our own beliefs that we kind of made up at some point consciously or
- 2:01subconsciously therefore it's running right it's like those patterns are running that area of your
- 2:07life, your relationship with money. And having the conversation, you know, leadership is bringing
- 2:14clarity to a situation which is lacking clarity. So taking the lead in the relationship because
- 2:22you care, because you love that person, because you value the relationship, and having the
- 2:26difficult conversation from your heart. If you're not able to come from your heart yet, then don't
- 2:33have the conversation yet. If you're coming from resentment or
- 2:37attacking or blaming, that's not a good time. You need to step away
- 2:41go and do your work to release the resentments, the pain, the struggle
- 2:45whatever it is there before. If you can't completely
- 2:49come from your heart and speak from your heart as in be
- 2:53really clear and come from that clarity of intention of I love
- 2:57this person therefore I'm willing to have this difficult conversation. Don't have
- 3:01for conversation yet not the time yet because what will come out is you might pretend that's
- 3:06the truth like we'll pretend like oh i'm saying all this you know i'm going to say all these loving
- 3:11things but actually we're just hurt like you know we're saying hurtful things or we're saying kind
- 3:15of like nasty horrible things even if they're slightly nasty because we know how to push their
- 3:20buttons right but it's different if i've let go of the resentments or the anger or whatever
- 3:26and I'm able to speak from my heart.
- 3:28Or sometimes the healing happens when you actually air it out
- 3:32and you can come from an honest place
- 3:35and taking responsibility for your part.
- 3:38So in this case, it's like having that open conversation
- 3:42and say like, hey, I felt resistant, embarrassed, afraid to speak about this,
- 3:47but I care about you and our relationship means more than this money that is owed.
- 3:52So therefore, I want to have the conversation.
- 3:55And I don't want to have money get in between us.
- 3:58So therefore, I want to bring some clarity.
- 4:02And it just opens up a space to have the conversation.
- 4:06So much of relationship is really communication.
- 4:10Having the conversation and having the difficult conversation first.
- 4:15Not sweeping it under the carpet.
- 4:17Because what we sweep under the carpet, you know, it's like sweeping the dust under the carpet.
- 4:21one day there's a fucking monster that bites your ass just jumps out you know when you're on the
- 4:27couch jumps out of under the carpet and bites your ass and the kids and you're like oh what's that
- 4:33oh that's the monster that i've been building that i've been sweeping under the carpet all these years
- 4:38a conversation that we didn't have and that's what normally what happens next thing you know
- 4:44you know the things that seem like it's left field and just kind of took you out or took the
- 4:49relationship out, it's been building for a long time. Just like most people pull their back from
- 4:56a sneeze. Now is it the sneeze or is it an accumulation of years of their posture or bad
- 5:05posture for their lower back for example? What is it? Is it the sneeze? It looks like the sneeze
- 5:14but the sneeze was just a thing as they say it's the cam you know the straw that broke the camel's
- 5:19back or the human's back that one sneeze is not a deadly sneeze or it's not a virus that broke
- 5:26your back it's you've been sitting badly and moving badly or not moving so your back has
- 5:32been accumulating this all this time therefore in that one last moment it happens so relationships
- 5:39also are like that when there's a lot that's been accumulating and hasn't been aired out and spoken
- 5:45rather than seeing a conflict as something that could destroy the relationship
- 5:50what I've learned is what can potentially be a conflict
- 5:54is an opportunity to deepen the relationship
- 5:58and if you enter into a conversation
- 6:00because you want to deepen the love, the relationship, the connection, the friendship
- 6:05then that becomes possible
- 6:08but if we come from blame
- 6:10it cannot go deeper
- 6:12it just kills the relationship or friendship
- 6:16so I hope that helps
- 6:17we went from money to that
