- 0:19Oh.
- 0:20and I admire you so much because I had seen your social and I see you're
- 0:25this amazing speaker, that you are this really magnetic personality,
- 0:32yet you are in no way intimidating as a person because you are so open.
- 0:38It's very four line.
- 0:40Mm.
- 0:40Um, you are so the depth.
- 0:45That.
- 0:46'cause I mean, there, there's some things that appear flashy, like,
- 0:49and not flashy, but like, you know, you have big personality.
- 0:52Like when, you know, and if anybody listening, if you haven't visited her,
- 0:57her socials, or if you have, you'll see it's bright colors, it's graffiti.
- 1:02It is this like big, big personality.
- 1:04But yet there is so much depth and intelligence and I just, the more
- 1:11I, I watched you and kind of had, had, uh, you know, experienced you.
- 1:18The more impressed I became and the more I was like, I wanna have a conversation.
- 1:23Like, we've done readings together and we've, we've had the pleasure of
- 1:26working together in a few ways that I, I was like, I really wanna have
- 1:31a conversation with you on the show.
- 1:33So thank you for being here.
- 1:34I am so excited
- 1:36I receive all of that.
- 1:37I'm really working on being receptive, which is my pearl, but aren't we all?
- 1:42So it's like, thank you.
- 1:44Um, no, really truly thank you.
- 1:45And I think that is the compliment of all compliments.
- 1:48You know, when someone says, you know, oh my God, you're just the same way on.
- 1:53Offstage as you are on stage or in real life as you are on the socials.
- 1:57And you know, I always say just because, just because something
- 2:00glitters doesn't doesn't make it gold.
- 2:03Right?
- 2:03And so, you know, feel into things and trust yourself and, and you kind of know.
- 2:10And so you had an intuitive hit with me.
- 2:12There was something about my page that stopped your scroll.
- 2:15Um, but really, truly what I reflect back to you is that I'm just a mirror, right?
- 2:19I'm just a mirror for, for everything you already hold inside yourself.
- 2:23And, and same with anybody listening.
- 2:24Anything you see in some, in someone else's, a reflection of,
- 2:27of maybe what's lying dormant.
- 2:29Yeah.
- 2:30Or possible in yourself.
- 2:31And we can talk about that.
- 2:32'cause I feel like I'm here to guide people back home to themselves so
- 2:35they can wake all that juicy shit up.
- 2:37Uh, I don't know if we can cuss on this podcast, but your girl just went there.
- 2:39Uh, pardon me.
- 2:40I'll, I'll try and keep it, I'll try and keep it, uh, uh, clean here.
- 2:43But, um, yeah, like literally what a compliment to receive.
- 2:46And, and just thank you for that.
- 2:47You know,
- 2:48I meant every
- 2:49assignment.
- 2:50I feel like that's the assignment just to just.
- 2:53Guide
- 2:54We have so much to get into.
- 2:55I'm going to read your official bio though, so everybody gets a little bit
- 2:58of, you know, that was my own personal introduction, but I'm gonna read a
- 3:02little bit 'cause I'm holding your book.
- 3:04Oh
- 3:04it's so exciting.
- 3:05It's like in the
- 3:06about it.
- 3:07Almost
- 3:07almost
- 3:08your book.
- 3:09I am and I'm one of the first people to hold it that's not part of like
- 3:12your team or like married to you.
- 3:14Yes.
- 3:14So I'm, I'm honored.
- 3:16Um, so I'm gonna read from here.
- 3:17Um, Judy Holler is a creative entrepreneur, motivational
- 3:21speaker and poet leading a revolution of self expressionism.
- 3:26Her bold, self-driven approach to life and work born to holler.
- 3:30Literally, Judy helps people amplify their voice, unlock their creativity, and
- 3:34boldly chase what sets their soul on fire.
- 3:37Through performance, poetry, and the power of her pen.
- 3:40She inspires originality, courage, and radical self-expression, whether on
- 3:45stage, on the page, or in your earbuds.
- 3:48Judy is here to remind you, you are the art, your life is the canvas.
- 3:55Amen.
- 3:55Yeah.
- 3:55And it almost makes me emotional to hear you read that out loud
- 3:58because, oh my God, here we go.
- 4:00We're just the, is this a record?
- 4:03Is this a record?
- 4:04Can we get tissues in the studio?
- 4:06Uh, oh my God.
- 4:07It's just the, the journey of, of, of self-discovery that I've been on.
- 4:13And to be able to bravely and confidently say that I am a self expressionist
- 4:20and I am here to help people be the full expression of themselves is the
- 4:26divine assignment that I have been so afraid to say out loud for so long.
- 4:31And to be able to, to have it come out into the world, to be standing on keynote
- 4:34stages now, teaching the art of self expressionism to proudly de declare myself
- 4:40a self expressionist and to really use.
- 4:44The last name I was born with in a way that allows people fe to feel safe to be
- 4:50the full expression of themself is, is what I have been wanting to do my whole
- 4:54life, and I've been so afraid to do.
- 4:56And off we go.
- 4:58So we can unpack that, but just to hear you read that out loud
- 5:02is, uh, really, really cool.
- 5:05Um, because I'm doing it, I'm doing it with me shaking like Bambi, I'm doing it.
- 5:10You're doing it.
- 5:11And you know the book is called Holler at Your Dreams.
- 5:14Yeah.
- 5:15Your name actually is Holler.
- 5:17That's not something Born With, born With It, which just feels pre-ordained.
- 5:21Oh yeah.
- 5:21For you to be doing what you're doing.
- 5:23And I have so many questions.
- 5:25Where I wanna start is tell everybody what is self expressionism to you?
- 5:32You use that word that is kind of the term that you've coined.
- 5:36Um, what does that mean
- 5:37to
- 5:37you?
- 5:38Yeah.
- 5:39So in a nutshell, I consider it to be kind of the.
- 5:44I believe the future is gonna be self-expressed.
- 5:46So it's sort of like, um, a bold keywords here, soul driven
- 5:52self-leadership philosophy built for the future of life and work.
- 5:56And ultimately I believe that when you live, work and be like a self
- 6:02expressionist, you will build a life and career that feels like yours.
- 6:06And so tell me a little bit about, you said you were, you were scared to do this.
- 6:11Mm-hmm.
- 6:11You don't strike me as a terribly fearful person.
- 6:15So, and I know that there are the people who, like the mostly women, but the person
- 6:21listening to this show, we, they listen because they want to be fully expressed.
- 6:27They want to step into who they are.
- 6:29They want to, some people wanna find who they are.
- 6:32Yeah.
- 6:32Some people are like, I know what it is, but I haven't fully owned it.
- 6:36Yeah.
- 6:36yeah.
- 6:37You don't strike me as a like, scared.
- 6:41Wilting flower, but can you talk to me a little bit about what that means to you?
- 6:48Like to say like, I'm, I'm scared, but I'm doing it.
- 6:50And, and what, what does that, what does that, how
- 6:53does that show up for you?
- 6:54Yeah.
- 6:55It's, it's everything.
- 6:55Well, first of all, we gotta drop my favorite little Wayne
- 6:58lyric, which is throw dirt on me.
- 7:00Grow a wild flower.
- 7:01So I am a wildflower.
- 7:03Um, and I love all the wildflowers.
- 7:05It's one of my favorite quotes, um, lyrics, bars in a, in a,
- 7:08you know, in a piece of poetry, which I consider, I love hip hop.
- 7:12Um, we come from the nineties that, right?
- 7:14And so I think it's some of the, you know, most beautiful poetry on the
- 7:17planet when done right, especially our.
- 7:20Nineties hip hop.
- 7:21Um, I digress on hip hop, but coming back full circle to, uh, living fully, fully
- 7:26expressed, you know, uh, my first book is called Fear is My Homeboy and Courage.
- 7:30So this, let's have a conversation about that.
- 7:32And I don't believe I would be sitting here hollering at my dreams if I did
- 7:36not use the concept of my first book and understand how to make fear my homeboy.
- 7:40This wouldn't even be in existence.
- 7:42So I, you know, one of the things people don't know about me, and I
- 7:45think would be surprised to understand, is that I am actually one of the
- 7:48biggest Fredy cats you'll ever meet.
- 7:50However, I believe that's what makes me qualified to write about fear,
- 7:54because I do it scared all the time, and I have become a professional fear
- 7:59facer, uh, because I understand how to dance with fear and how to ride with
- 8:04it, how to befriend it, and how to most importantly put it, put it in its place
- 8:08when it, when it needs to be checked.
- 8:09And so I'm scared all the time.
- 8:12I just have built a tolerance for pain that allows me.
- 8:17To move more intuitively, take more risks, put myself in rooms, jump before
- 8:23I'm ready, and just sort of trust that I'm, human design has helped me with
- 8:28this, but trust that I'm, I'm protected and that I'm, I'm divinely aligned.
- 8:33And that, you know, I'm evidence that I'm evidence because I exist.
- 8:37You know, I, I think we are living proof.
- 8:39Think of all the hard things you've done up until this point.
- 8:41You've, some of you, some of you listening, have gotten married,
- 8:44gotten divorced, moved across country, uh, the country started new
- 8:48jobs, quit jobs, death diagnosis.
- 8:49We have, we have done hard things.
- 8:51You are already the evidence of courage.
- 8:54It's self simply because you are breathing oxygen, right?
- 8:57And so I think we forget that we've got this resume.
- 9:01Already of like dopeness that we are forgetting to call upon.
- 9:06And I have a degree in Dopeness, meaning I am like, I may not have made straight
- 9:10A's in school and I may not have a PhD or a, like a, a master's in whatever.
- 9:15And I may not be a scientist or have like the most groundbreaking strategy, but
- 9:19I do have a degree in Dopeness and that is the dopeness of understanding self
- 9:23and like understanding that I can do it.
- 9:25Like I, I have done hard things and lived to talk about it.
- 9:29So it kind of gives me the courage to keep doing it and see what happens.
- 9:32I have a degree in dopeness.
- 9:34Is
- 9:34is that how like catchphrase, did we just create something there?
- 9:36I
- 9:36think you just, I should edit the book degree.
- 9:38I think I have a quote in the book.
- 9:39You know, trust your dopeness.
- 9:40But yeah, like, I really do, I think I have a degree in Dopeness and that is
- 9:43just the willingness to look cringe.
- 9:46The willingness to fail, the willingness to disappoint other people.
- 9:49But may I never disappoint myself.
- 9:50The willingness to get it wrong, the, the willingness to look
- 9:57silly.
- 9:58to, to try to just.
- 10:01I, I,
- 10:01I think.
- 10:03Because I'm a Fredy cat.
- 10:04Oh, I am.
- 10:05I am.
- 10:06When I think about all the things that I, I've done a lot of hard things, but
- 10:10I've also not done a lot of things.
- 10:13Yeah.
- 10:13Fully.
- 10:15My core wound is halfheartedness, which is, I think the Fredy Cats,
- 10:21uh, real Achilles heel is the fact that it can seem like we're trying.
- 10:26Mm. But I'm half-hearted in it because the fear of actually succeeding Yes.
- 10:32Is actually the thing that I'm most scared of.
- 10:36Or there have just been these, like, you know, I was an actor.
- 10:39I did brave things.
- 10:40I moved across the country and I put myself out there and I went on auditions
- 10:45and I did things, but I didn't do.
- 10:48Everything.
- 10:49I didn't love the business of show business.
- 10:52I really don't like the hobnobbing and the ass kissing and the, you
- 10:57know, and whatever else goes on to get the roles that you're looking for.
- 11:01I wasn't that type of person, and I'm not, I'm not great at being phony.
- 11:04I can
- 11:04but I
- 11:05but I don't like to act in my real life.
- 11:06She's a real for show business.
- 11:07But, you know, it was just like integrity is gets in the way sometimes of ambition.
- 11:13Yeah.
- 11:14But, um, yes, but I, so, so I, I kind of just thinking about like fear is my,
- 11:20I've done a lot of hard things, but I've also had to look at like, when have I not
- 11:23gone for it with everything that I have.
- 11:27Yeah.
- 11:28And that's what has been the journey for me.
- 11:31I think everybody has their journey with fear.
- 11:33Of course.
- 11:34And, and I think we can also look at, um, the things that we haven't done or
- 11:38the things that haven't worked out, or we can forget all of the hard things
- 11:41that we did, we take 'em for granted.
- 11:42Like, oh, anybody can do that.
- 11:43Yes.
- 11:43And it's like, well, no, there are a lot of people
- 11:46we don't.
- 11:46There's a, most people, most people don't.
- 11:49It is easier to play it safe.
- 11:51It is easier to ignore.
- 11:52It is easier to numb.
- 11:53It is easier to, you know.
- 11:56Hope and wish and excuse your way in
- 11:59and around things.
- 11:59Right.
- 12:00And I think it's easier as well to just fall into the patterns
- 12:04that everybody finds acceptable.
- 12:06I think it's, I think it's very courageous to be like, I'm gonna be different.
- 12:11I'm gonna do the thing that people are gonna say I'm crazy for.
- 12:14Yes.
- 12:15And I have been called crazy, probably not to my face, but
- 12:18in back rooms behind my back.
- 12:21Like, who's she kidding?
- 12:22Like, oh yeah.
- 12:23They're like, yeah, go for it.
- 12:24And they're like, she's out of her mind.
- 12:27You know?
- 12:27And probably everything that I've done in the last 15 years of
- 12:31my life have been quote unquote
- 12:33crazy.
- 12:33Oh yeah.
- 12:33But you know, here's to the crazy ones.
- 12:35Here's to the crazy ones.
- 12:36And it's okay to live a life.
- 12:37People
- 12:38understand.
- 12:39Yeah.
- 12:39You know, it's your life.
- 12:40Yeah.
- 12:41And yeah, it it's yours.
- 12:42And that's, and that's the point, right?
- 12:44Like that's one of the beautiful gifts of human design is like, and
- 12:49one of the things you've taught me and really reflected back to me is like.
- 12:53I think you, you said this at the opening, I just, on the way here, I listened
- 12:56to your projector podcast all about US projectors and you opened it by saying,
- 13:00one of my favorite things about human de design and I concur is, you know, when
- 13:04we think about fear and what everybody else is doing and the ways fear shows up.
- 13:08'cause we look around at what everybody else is doing.
- 13:09We're like, well, if everybody's doing this kind of course, I might as well.
- 13:12We do this.
- 13:12Well, everybody's building funnels.
- 13:13I should go build, build funnels.
- 13:14Oh, everybody's got a Instagram grid that looks this way, I
- 13:16should go do this everybody.
- 13:17So we start looking around and one of the things you say about human design,
- 13:22whether you're comparing yourself to other people or other people's paths
- 13:25or whatever that may look like, human design is just this beautiful reminder
- 13:28that there, there's only your path and, and it like, it helped me like.
- 13:34It so I felt so protected, like good for her.
- 13:38Ooh, but that's not for me.
- 13:39Ooh, you go girl.
- 13:41I love that funnel for you.
- 13:42I love that course for you.
- 13:43I love that conference for you.
- 13:45I'm gonna be over here doing my little thing in my laboratory
- 13:48and call me on Sunday, right?
- 13:50Like, but you see what I'm saying?
- 13:51Like now I just don't feel I went through such a phase of, Ooh, I got bitter.
- 13:56I was so bitter and, and jealous.
- 13:59And I had this chip on my shoulder 'cause things weren't working in my
- 14:02life and I had lost myself in like 2022.
- 14:05And um, so I just really went through this phase of like bitterness and so.
- 14:09you
- 14:10I had to go on a journey to go to, to, to find her and to come back home.
- 14:13And that's really what's in the pages of the book.
- 14:15But the moral of the story is human design has really helped me sort of
- 14:18realize like, there's nobody, I'm not running anybody else's race.
- 14:21This is my game.
- 14:22And it is okay for me to live a life that, that other people don't
- 14:25understand because it's mine.
- 14:26It's my one wildly dope, precious life.
- 14:29And it's gonna be scary at times and it might feel unconventional for
- 14:33other people, but you know, I kind of trust, trust the path and the process
- 14:38And the purpose.
- 14:39And that's the whole thing.
- 14:41I mean, and you know, something that I wanted to point out.
- 14:44You're, you're a four, six emotional projector.
- 14:46Just so people, just so, so people know.
- 14:48'cause they, they wanna know, they wanna know on the show.
- 14:50I, because I think it's, it's also, I love showing people because I, I loved,
- 14:55I was talking to one of my, my former clients this morning and I was talking
- 14:59about you and, and she knows who you are.
- 15:01And I was like, yeah,
- 15:01a projector.
- 15:02And she's like, get out.
- 15:03Isn't that wild?
- 15:04Like,
- 15:04everybody thinks you're a money jump.
- 15:05Oh, I, I was so remember I told you I
- 15:07was, is
- 15:07what you're about to say?
- 15:08Go ahead, finish it.
- 15:09I love it.
- 15:10Well, I was so mad.
- 15:11So when I run the, I literally ran it twice.
- 15:13I like, oh, I'm clearly put in, did I put am instead of PM 1 44?
- 15:17Did I get it right?
- 15:18Did I put the zero in front of the one?
- 15:19I was so furious that I was a projector.
- 15:22I was like, I am so Manny Jen, I'm gonna be with all my Manny Jen friends.
- 15:26Look at my life.
- 15:26I'm of course a manifesting generator.
- 15:28Look at me.
- 15:29I'm a manifester and I'm a generator.
- 15:31I'm a hustler.
- 15:32I'm a grinder.
- 15:32I get things done.
- 15:33I'm a finisher, which I am a finisher, and that's okay.
- 15:36And I could still be a projector finisher.
- 15:38Uh, but oh, I was like uncomfortable with being a projector.
- 15:42And then Nicole's like, oh, well, did you understand that 20, only 20% of
- 15:49the world are these projector energies?
- 15:51And I went from feeling.
- 15:54Mad to like, well, shit, maybe I'm a unicorn over here.
- 15:59And I've been living in this like other world where no
- 16:01wonder things weren't working.
- 16:02No wonder I was trying to squeeze my projector soul into a manifester
- 16:08manifesting generator, generator world.
- 16:10And no wonder I wasn't, I I no wonder I wasn't, I was
- 16:14blocking literally all of my bus.
- 16:17Yeah.
- 16:18And I think that one of the things as you were talking and you were, you,
- 16:22you were talking about, you know, fear as my homeboy and you were talking
- 16:25about, you know, your rise to where you are now and, and that journey
- 16:29that, that you've taken to get here.
- 16:30One of the things that was standing out to me was whether you knew you were
- 16:33doing it or not, but when you find out you're a projector, you can start to
- 16:37do this more deliberately, which is I think, the power of human design.
- 16:40It's not to be like, okay, now let's put you in this box.
- 16:42Yes.
- 16:42Yeah.
- 16:43Because that's not what it's about.
- 16:44I wanted to be a projector.
- 16:45I wanted people to tell me to, like that I'm supposed to be some guide.
- 16:48Yeah.
- 16:48And that, you know, I needed to nap more.
- 16:50That was, that was, that was, I was.
- 16:52Super disappointed when I was like, uh, uh, um, when I found out I was a mangen.
- 16:56Did you?
- 16:57I wanted yours.
- 16:57You wanted mine.
- 16:57Yeah, exactly.
- 16:58Well, we all want something.
- 16:59Of course.
- 16:59I think the first reaction to your chart is a very valid one to look at.
- 17:03Yeah.
- 17:03Yeah.
- 17:03What were you hoping
- 17:04it would be?
- 17:05and, and why?
- 17:07Yeah.
- 17:07And to me, I was like, I wanted to be like, tell me I'm a sage.
- 17:11Tell me that I'm, I wanted to be like a six, a six line projector.
- 17:15Like, tell me I'm a sage who's just meant to guide you.
- 17:17Yes.
- 17:17I need to nap more, spend more time in my own energy and
- 17:21just tell people what to do.
- 17:22That sounded great to me.
- 17:24Yeah.
- 17:25And I'm like, and then I had to be confronted with the fact that like,
- 17:27okay, that's, that's not you way, it doesn't mean you can't do those things.
- 17:32Yeah.
- 17:32Um,
- 17:33I can nap whenever
- 17:34want, but the truth is, is that I don't need
- 17:36to, you don't need
- 17:36We don't need to, not really.
- 17:38I don't, I don't, I don't nap My husband naps all the time.
- 17:41All the time.
- 17:42He is a professional napper.
- 17:44Yeah.
- 17:44Um, but as a projector, what I think is so powerful about this is that projectors
- 17:51rise when they recognize themselves.
- 17:53Mm. That's beautiful.
- 17:53And when they only give their energy to things that they
- 17:56want to be recognized for.
- 17:59And where one of my clients wrote Gram this morning asking me about
- 18:03what type of a projector she was.
- 18:05'cause there's like, there's a classic projector, there's a mental projector,
- 18:08and then there's energy projectors.
- 18:09You're an energy projector.
- 18:10Mm-hmm.
- 18:10Which energy projectors mean you have a motor defined at least one, and
- 18:15you have the emotional motor defined.
- 18:16Totally.
- 18:17But the, and the difference is you do have energy so you can present like something
- 18:21you're not gonna be as tired as my husband.
- 18:23Right.
- 18:24No, I don't nap actually.
- 18:25But I do need to.
- 18:27You
- 18:27Sit down schedule.
- 18:28I need, I
- 18:29literally schedule it.
- 18:30Yeah.
- 18:30Now.
- 18:31And you'll find that you will be brighter in all the areas that you show up in.
- 18:36Your energy enters the room before you do.
- 18:38And if you're depleted, you deplete that.
- 18:41And if you deplete that, then you're working harder for your success.
- 18:44And if you're working harder for your success, you're out of alignment.
- 18:46You're outta alignment.
- 18:46And that's, so it's, it's more of a way of like, it's a way of saying like, to
- 18:51check in with yourself as a roadmap.
- 18:54And for you, I think you've learned to recognize yourself
- 18:58for your degree in ness.
- 19:00Oh, yeah.
- 19:01Oh yeah.
- 19:01And the more you've owned that through that, like your light has
- 19:05shined, so, which gives you energy, which gives you power, and which
- 19:10makes you, you know, that, that overused word right now magnetic.
- 19:14But that's why people are drawn to you.
- 19:15You're a very successful professional speaker.
- 19:18I wanna talk about that.
- 19:19I wanna talk about the book, but I want to, I, I wanna ask
- 19:23you about, you've called this
- 19:24book.
- 19:25Mm.
- 19:26an Oracle.
- 19:27Oh.
- 19:27yeah.
- 19:28Talk to me about how
- 19:29you would love,
- 19:30in a perfect world, everybody who's listening buys this
- 19:33book holler at your dreams.
- 19:35And
- 19:36how are they using this?
- 19:37What are they doing?
- 19:38Okay, well, we're, we should do an Oracle before we end it to today.
- 19:41We'll sort of wrap and ask the book a question.
- 19:44Okay.
- 19:44And, and get our answer from it.
- 19:45And oh, sometimes, like, let's let the conversation happen and see if it
- 19:48affirms anything we've talked about or how it connects to what we've done.
- 19:52I really, I, I wrote the book, it's got four sections.
- 19:55So we start with pain, we gotta feel it, we gotta, we gotta sit in it.
- 20:01Sometimes we have to lose ourselves to find ourselves so that the first section,
- 20:04the book is grouped in four sections.
- 20:06It begins with pain.
- 20:08Um, and the book, by the way, is full of poetry, personal development, art, and
- 20:13prose to, to illustrate the concepts.
- 20:18I believe are are available to help someone holler their dreams.
- 20:22No longer chase dreams, actually catch dreams.
- 20:23So that's kind of the makeup of the book.
- 20:25It's, it's artistic.
- 20:26It's got coffee table book energy, but you can read it front to back.
- 20:29You start with pain.
- 20:30You go from pain to peace.
- 20:32Now we make peace with it.
- 20:34Ooh, now that we felt it and we're feeling the things, where we at with that?
- 20:37And what does peace look like?
- 20:38And how do we get peace with the things that maybe feel uncomfortable
- 20:42or icky or maybe bigger, or that fear of success that we have lurking around
- 20:46the corner, all this good stuff.
- 20:47And then once we've sort of felt the pain and we've made peace with
- 20:50it, ooh, now we step into presence.
- 20:52Who are we now?
- 20:53This is the becoming.
- 20:55This is the what could we become?
- 20:57What have we become?
- 20:58What do we want to become?
- 20:59And from there, we move into the paradigm.
- 21:02This is where we shift into new dimensions and we think even bigger.
- 21:05And we go to a whole new universe and a, and a bigger way of
- 21:08thinking for ourselves, right?
- 21:09So pain, peace, presence, and paradigm are the four sections.
- 21:13So you could read this book front to back, however.
- 21:16Intuitively and in my bones what I, how this book came through for me.
- 21:23It was a bit like an oracle, like, dare I say, it's a book you could ask a
- 21:28question to and and receive an answer to.
- 21:31So one of my favorite things to do in life is to, when I'm lost, when I'm
- 21:35stuck creatively, when I need an answer.
- 21:37The books in my office that surround my writing computer are
- 21:40all my favorite books in the world.
- 21:42The books that have changed my life the most.
- 21:43Art books, uh, personal development books, poetry books, all this stuff.
- 21:46And so I will be lost, I'll be stuck on what to write in my newsletter.
- 21:49I will be stuck on a decision I need to make.
- 21:52I will be stuck on whatever it is in life, a conversation
- 21:54I need to have with a friend.
- 21:55And I will go to the books on shelf.
- 21:57I will pull one out and I will say, what do I need today?
- 21:59And I will let the pages tell me the answer and I will use
- 22:03whatever's there to, to refine.
- 22:05And 99.99999% of the time, it is exactly what I needed.
- 22:10And then some, so.
- 22:12This is what you're gonna write about with your spin.
- 22:14This is how you're gonna approach that conversation with your friend.
- 22:16This is the message you need today.
- 22:17So I said, what if I could, I like chills.
- 22:20I'm like, what if I could write a book like that that allows the reader to also
- 22:24get the answers they need in this book?
- 22:27And so, yeah, you can ask her a question and get your answer
- 22:30and, and let that guide you.
- 22:32Um, this is also gift giving is my love language, and I'm always
- 22:36looking for the perfect gift.
- 22:37And so I wanted to create that beautiful treasure.
- 22:40You could give a best friend a team that is, and it's this unique little design.
- 22:45It's like a square, 400, 10 pages of magic.
- 22:47So she's gonna be really beautiful to give in a gift as a gift that, that, that
- 22:51just is something that serves someone.
- 22:52You don't just read it and put away, this is a book that's like
- 22:54actively on your nightstand.
- 22:56This is on a coffee table.
- 22:57This is like, this is like, there's, there's a buzz.
- 22:59This, this book is kind of alive, right?
- 23:02And that's why I think it's an oracle.
- 23:04And I don't know, you could read read it traditionally, but I, I wrote it very
- 23:08traditionally to just let you use it as you need to use it.
- 23:11I think it's actually more the way people read.
- 23:15I don't think that most people will stop.
- 23:18Yeah.
- 23:18At some point where I think a lot of personal development books or you
- 23:23know, nonfiction can sometimes feel like the same things get repeated or
- 23:29where it's like, okay, I get it now.
- 23:30We
- 23:31it now and
- 23:31then you, you put it away.
- 23:33I'm guilty of that.
- 23:34I'm a manny gen, so we are not finishers by the way, we're finishers.
- 23:37You're finish.
- 23:38We are not finishers.
- 23:39We're like, yeah, yeah.
- 23:40I get the gist next.
- 23:41Um, what's the next thing to get me my next like sacral?
- 23:44Yes.
- 23:44Yes.
- 23:45Um, this is a no for me now.
- 23:47Yeah.
- 23:47But I feel like this is actually more the way that people read.
- 23:50Yeah.
- 23:50Because it's more about like, what do I need right now?
- 23:52Yeah.
- 23:53And what's speaking to me right now.
- 23:54And I love that you've positioned it that way, where.
- 23:58They're not putting it away like I'm done with it.
- 24:01It's active.
- 24:02That it's something that it's, that
- 24:04they will use.
- 24:05Yes.
- 24:05The reader will use and come back to.
- 24:07Yes.
- 24:08And.
- 24:09And maybe someone's in pain right now and they need to go there.
- 24:12Maybe someone is in a really great place and they need to remember who they are.
- 24:15So they're gonna go right to presence.
- 24:17Maybe someone needs to get some peace in their life.
- 24:18Maybe someone has all the cards lined up and they want to get to another
- 24:22dimension and get weird with it, baby, we're gonna go right to presence, right?
- 24:26So where are you today?
- 24:27And they're 365 original ideas.
- 24:29Something new every day.
- 24:30So it's like a bite-sized, it's like a little bite-sized book that you can
- 24:35Yeah, it's the un, it's an unbook.
- 24:37But yeah, like where are you today?
- 24:38And you know what?
- 24:39Listen, I don't know about you.
- 24:41We're women, you know?
- 24:42We're women over 45.
- 24:43You're gonna go through pain and then you're gonna heal.
- 24:46And guess what?
- 24:46You're gonna have to come all the way back to the beginning and go through
- 24:49new pains as things change your life.
- 24:50So we're never fully, it is, it is.
- 24:53Life is a dance of becoming of, of change and growth and reinvention.
- 24:58That's a whole point.
- 24:59So it's kind of like a lifelong answer.
- 25:02Well, it's a longterm answer to the lifelong pursuit of growth and
- 25:05change in reinvention, which is the whole point.
- 25:07So
- 25:08talk to me about paradigm.
- 25:09Talk to me about, because that's a word that I think people use and I'm
- 25:14curious like, in the context of this.
- 25:15So like, so we have pain understood presence, so now we're getting, we've
- 25:20moved through our pain and now we're ready to kind of maybe peace presence.
- 25:24Yes.
- 25:24Oh, peace presence.
- 25:24Excuse me.
- 25:25And then
- 25:26we've got paradigm.
- 25:27Mm-hmm.
- 25:28Talk to me about paradigm
- 25:30What's
- 25:30and that part.
- 25:31So this is like the, the cosmic part of my soul.
- 25:34Like the, the like, you know, the right place.
- 25:36Yeah.
- 25:37This is the, like, this is the woo woo.
- 25:40This is the woo woo in Judy, uh, that wanted to kind of, you know, I, I've been
- 25:44building up in my, my mind and I'm slowly.
- 25:49Bringing it to life.
- 25:50Uh, this holi verse, right?
- 25:52This world that I've been dreaming up where like, you know, boombox is our
- 25:57muse and our, our manifestos written in graffiti, and the world is neon and brave.
- 26:04Like courage is our crown, and self-expression is our strategy,
- 26:07and intuition is our primary brain.
- 26:10And it's, it's, it's bold and creative and different, and it's, and I just had
- 26:17this vision, I'll tell you the truth.
- 26:18I had this vision of like, this UFO, I'm like, what?
- 26:23How could I end this book?
- 26:24And it was like this, like UFO came over me and it was like this bright
- 26:28pink light beaming down on me.
- 26:29And I, and I was like, Ooh, beam me up into this like, haul verse.
- 26:32Let's get weird.
- 26:33Let's go to a place that, that what could be possible here.
- 26:38If I really stepped into this presence, I've become, like, if
- 26:41I really fully embody, holler.
- 26:44What's next?
- 26:46What does bigger look like?
- 26:47What does stranger looks like?
- 26:50What does braver even, what does more expressed look like?
- 26:55So for me, it's a place of playfulness and, and joy and
- 27:00weirdness and cosmic divine energy.
- 27:03And this is just like the truth of it.
- 27:04I wanted to shift people into new dimensions for themselves internally
- 27:09so they could wake up what is possible when they tap into their potential.
- 27:14Because I think that's the divine assignment I am here to, to use my
- 27:18voice and the full expression of that voice to help others feel safe in using
- 27:25the full expression of their voice.
- 27:27And I can't do that if I don't show.
- 27:30I can't do that just in jeans and a t-shirt.
- 27:33I've gotta, I've gotta get like more fully expressed, like I have to, like, woo.
- 27:40You know?
- 27:40So in these photo shoots that I do and this, these worlds that I'm
- 27:43gonna be bringing to life, I get, I go, it's like the, you know, it's
- 27:47the Sasha Fierce that Beyonce has.
- 27:48We all have that Internal, internal, it's like, have these, it's me, but
- 27:52it's the, the, the fullest expression of, of where I could, where I want
- 27:57people to go with me, you know?
- 27:59Mm-hmm.
- 27:59Because if I can show them the way, maybe they'll feel more
- 28:01confident saying, well, she
- 28:02can be do that.
- 28:03I can do that.
- 28:04You know,
- 28:05I mean, I think that that's, you put up a, a clip from one of your speeches
- 28:10'cause you're a professional speaker and I wanna talk to you just about,
- 28:13I'm gonna say that most of our audience like that I know is out there and
- 28:18we've, we've done some polling and just talking with people in our community
- 28:22that's on a lot of people's list.
- 28:23Mm-hmm.
- 28:23I wanna be, I wanna be a professional speaker.
- 28:24I wanna get paid to speak.
- 28:26Yeah.
- 28:26And I think that there's a big question mark as to how that actually gets
- 28:31done.
- 28:31'cause you actually get paid to speak.
- 28:32I do.
- 28:33I want
- 28:33really be, I wanna differentiate.
- 28:34I'm a pro speaker.
- 28:35I mean, that's how
- 28:35that's how I make 80 per, that's my, that's my job.
- 28:37That's how I make my money.
- 28:39And a lot of people that are speaking, that's not how they're making their money.
- 28:42And, and that's fine.
- 28:44But you actually get paid for this.
- 28:45Yeah.
- 28:45So I feel like you, you have a, a level of qualification that
- 28:48I wanna really set apart here.
- 28:50Um, you put up a clip from one of your speeches where you talked
- 28:53about, um, I don't remember her name, but somebody from IBM Oh, Candace.
- 28:57I love this.
- 28:57We have to tell that story.
- 28:59Tell the story.
- 28:59Because I watched that and I was like, I wanna talk to her about this on the show.
- 29:03Because I think that that is sort of, it's, it's this, oh, it's everything
- 29:07and it's what you're here for.
- 29:08Because I wanna also say that, you know, you are a cross of planning person.
- 29:13Mm-hmm.
- 29:13Which I think there's usually an idea about the cross of planning.
- 29:16Oh, that's the old way that's going to be, that's really
- 29:19structured it's infrastructure.
- 29:21No, it's about doing things smartly and building something and being
- 29:24a person who can build things.
- 29:26But you're led by the 16th gate, the gate of enthusiasm and
- 29:29skills, and you've built a skill.
- 29:32It isn't just enthusiasm, but it's the enthusiasm that caused you to
- 29:35build the skills that you have.
- 29:37And now you, you.
- 29:40Spewing enthusiasm, like you're radiating it everywhere.
- 29:44And I think that that's, you're an example of somebody living their
- 29:48conscious sun, their incarnation cross, and the way you've approached the
- 29:51work has been the way I wish everybody would approach the work, which is not
- 29:56from a place of like a destination of like, okay, now I know where I'm going.
- 30:01You, you've also, you're, you've been living your life in a way where you
- 30:06are stepping into yourself too, but.
- 30:09But you look at the human design work and it's been amazing for me.
- 30:14'cause you're like, I, I take
- 30:15my, my business
- 30:16report and I sit with it with my morning coffee.
- 30:19I do,
- 30:19And I journal and I'm like, do you have no idea?
- 30:21That's what I did on my birthday.
- 30:23It was my birthday gift to myself.
- 30:24I was like, oh my God, this is amazing.
- 30:26I was like, I went through it, I printed it.
- 30:27I'm laying at a pool.
- 30:28My husband's like, what is that?
- 30:29I have like highlighters.
- 30:30And I'm like, this is Nicole's report.
- 30:32It's like this beautiful 40 page report.
- 30:33And I then I take it and dissect it, and then I divide it up into
- 30:36sections and then I like, oh my gosh.
- 30:38I, oh, I'm a student.
- 30:39I'm a student of the work for sure.
- 30:41And I love that.
- 30:42And I love that what you've done is you're allowing it to.
- 30:46Either unlock or open wider Yeah.
- 30:49The doors within yourself that have always been there.
- 30:52Yeah.
- 30:52And to go like, what happens if I go deeper into this?
- 30:55Yes.
- 30:55What if I, what if I really were, wow, that's there.
- 30:58I thought so.
- 30:59Yes.
- 30:59What if I turned that dial way up?
- 31:01What would happen then?
- 31:02What does that really mean for me?
- 31:04So I, I love that.
- 31:06So I wanted to, I
- 31:06wanted to say that, but, but tell everybody the story
- 31:08about Oh my God.
- 31:09From IBM.
- 31:09Oh my God.
- 31:11Okay.
- 31:12so this, this was, you know, we all have those flash, those, those flashpoint that,
- 31:17that are life defining and life changing.
- 31:19This is certainly one of 'em because
- 31:21I had been dreaming and deeply desiring.
- 31:27This free ability to talk about self-expression on
- 31:30stage in the keynote world.
- 31:32But keep in mind, I'm paid as a corporate keynote speaker, and
- 31:34those conversations feel very scary inside of corporate America.
- 31:38So when I launched Holler Your Dreams to the World in 2023,
- 31:42low Key, for real, it fell flat.
- 31:44And I was called by a lot of bureaus and agents and people in
- 31:47the business, people outside of me that told me it was dangerous.
- 31:50Nobody's gonna get it.
- 31:51Nobody's gonna understand it.
- 31:52Um, companies don't need people hollering at their dreams.
- 31:55They need people getting shit done, making money, getting results, all of this stuff.
- 31:58And, oh, how's that working out for you?
- 32:00Are you busy?
- 32:01And like all these things, right?
- 32:02Not out of.
- 32:03Not out of care, but out of critique.
- 32:05And I call them the money grabbers.
- 32:06These people start coming around you when you get to a certain level of success.
- 32:09I write about it in the book and everybody's got the way to fix you.
- 32:12You know what?
- 32:12Just write me this check and I'm gonna tell you this is how you're gonna
- 32:15scale and this is how I'll fix you.
- 32:16And this is the message that's really gonna work.
- 32:17But soul knows, and I knew that I wanted to use this verb, and I knew that I wanted
- 32:22to help people holler at their dreams.
- 32:23And I knew that I wanted to live out loud as a self expressionist.
- 32:26Like I wanted to come outta that creative closet so bad.
- 32:29But I was so scared, like, how will I, how will I pay my mortgage?
- 32:32How will I pay my team?
- 32:33I'm the breadwinner in my family.
- 32:35Like this is the, this is the business.
- 32:37It's like, will I lose everything?
- 32:39And people were telling me like, are you busy?
- 32:41And I'm like, I actually wasn't as busy at the time in 2023
- 32:44when somebody said that to me.
- 32:45So I got scared and I pulled back and this specific brand manager said
- 32:49to me, well, I've got the solution.
- 32:51I know what's gonna fix you, Judy.
- 32:53Um, and I have to give you this backstory before I tell Candace so that you can
- 32:56understand how powerful this moment was just six months ago with Canvas.
- 33:00Canvas with canvas.
- 33:02So.
- 33:04I hired this brand manager.
- 33:05I'm scared and I'm doubting myself, but I knew Holler at your dreams.
- 33:08Was it?
- 33:09But I'm scared.
- 33:10This brand manager goes, I got the thing.
- 33:12We're gonna fix you.
- 33:13You're gonna be the be the verb girl.
- 33:14That's what we're gonna do.
- 33:15We're gonna be the verb.
- 33:16So we're gonna, we're gonna rebrand your book, the title of the book, your
- 33:19keynote, your website, everything.
- 33:20We're gonna, you're gonna be the be the verb girl.
- 33:22Corporate will get that.
- 33:23Everybody's gonna understand that.
- 33:24So I go, okay, I guess I'm gonna be the be the verb girl.
- 33:27So I rebrand everything.
- 33:28I redo the keynote, I redo the book cover, redo everything, and we
- 33:30change everything to be the verb.
- 33:31And inside I am dying.
- 33:35I'm snapping at my husband.
- 33:36I'm not sleeping really good.
- 33:38I'm miserable.
- 33:39I'm on stage giving my keynote.
- 33:41I lost probably a year of video because I cannot use any of it
- 33:44because I just am a shell of myself.
- 33:46I don't know who that person is.
- 33:48Um, I I, and most acutely and most importantly, I could not make a
- 33:52decision on the cover of this book.
- 33:54And I was.
- 33:55Pissing off all these people and wasting a ton of money and time and energy.
- 33:59'cause I was like, what's it gonna be?
- 34:00What's it gonna be?
- 34:01It's coming out in Eptember.
- 34:01We gotta start.
- 34:02We gotta start.
- 34:02We need a decision.
- 34:03So we get to a point in March this year.
- 34:07So keep in mind, I'm out there.
- 34:08I'm be the verb girl, okay?
- 34:08But inside, I'm slowly dying.
- 34:10I'm like, what is happening?
- 34:10And why am I feeling resistance?
- 34:12And why am I mad at everybody and why am I bitter?
- 34:14Why do I have this chip on my shoulder?
- 34:15And everything's like, ah, whack push comes to shove and we have
- 34:20to make a decision on this cup.
- 34:21They're like, yo, we got 48 hours.
- 34:22Like we have to start moving, right?
- 34:24And rightfully so.
- 34:25I wake up in the middle of the night and I'm like, oh my God.
- 34:29I, I, I mean I can't do this.
- 34:33And I go, I know what it is.
- 34:34I go, and this is like literally the keynote of my entire presentation.
- 34:39I go, I am sitting here painting my life's canvas with other people's brushes.
- 34:48And what I came to learn because be the verb wasn't mine.
- 34:52That keynote wasn't really mine.
- 34:53That book cover wasn't mine because be the verb and the concept and the idea was
- 34:58assigned to me by a brand manager outside of me to fix me, but it was never mine.
- 35:02And the keynote is this, if something doesn't belong to you,
- 35:07it will not stay with you and you will not wanna stay with it.
- 35:11So maybe for you, it is not a keynote or a book title, it is a version
- 35:16of success that no longer fits.
- 35:18Maybe it's a relationship that now has tension.
- 35:20Maybe it's the actual clothes in your closet.
- 35:22Maybe it is a limiting belief.
- 35:24Like if it isn't yours, it ain't gonna stay maybe, and, and, and
- 35:30you're not gonna wanna stay with it.
- 35:31Mm-hmm.
- 35:31So I have this awakening.
- 35:33I I, I fire everybody.
- 35:36I, I call my graphic designer and I say, ginger, you're gonna kill me.
- 35:40But I knew she would get it.
- 35:41I go, I'm shutting the whole thing down.
- 35:43She goes, what are you doing?
- 35:44And I go, I'm not.
- 35:46We gotta redo the cover.
- 35:48I go, girl, it's holler at your dreams.
- 35:49It's always been, she's crying, I'm crying.
- 35:51We're like, let's go baby.
- 35:53Like, it was like Jerry McGuire with the fish tanker and I against the world.
- 35:56I'm like, so we get rid of everything.
- 35:58We call our power back.
- 35:59And I'm like, this book has was and always will be.
- 36:01It was born to be holler at your dreams.
- 36:03And I, I believe, I believe so.
- 36:06I rewrote the keynote.
- 36:08I rewrote the, redid the cover.
- 36:10I redid my website.
- 36:12I called my power back and I, and I did it scared as hell shaking, like, Bambi
- 36:17going, I have no idea how corporate's gonna react to this, but I react to it.
- 36:21So let's go.
- 36:21So I'm, I get hired by this Women in Technology Forum.
- 36:25Okay.
- 36:25And I'm a corporate keynote speaker.
- 36:26Keep in mind, my biggest fear is that I'm not gonna make any money
- 36:28and I'm never gonna work again in my livelihood and the love of my life,
- 36:31which is performing and speaking and really guiding people back home to
- 36:36themselves and being this projector energy that I am, was gonna go away.
- 36:40And so I needed a sign, I needed validation to like, is this it?
- 36:45So I am on a prep call for this Women in Tech technology event that was in
- 36:49Huntington Beach in May with the board of directors like IBM and Microsoft
- 36:54and Apple and like big women in tech in this room, 2000 women almost.
- 36:57And we're going around the room and I'm asking them all the questions
- 37:00to get prepared for my speeches.
- 37:02I always do, tell me about your audience.
- 37:03What's the theme?
- 37:04What, what's keeping you up at night?
- 37:05All this stuff.
- 37:06So you can customize the content, which every pro speaker
- 37:08should do so you can design an experience that feels like theirs.
- 37:10The last question I always ask is this.
- 37:12I go, so you've had a lot of speakers at this event.
- 37:16It's a women's event and they've hired women's speakers for this event.
- 37:19I say a lot, a lot of women on your stage over the years.
- 37:22You gotta tell me what works, what doesn't work, what's really crushed, what hasn't.
- 37:25So everybody's going around the zoom room giving me answers.
- 37:28I'm taking notes.
- 37:28And I noticed Candace with IBM Jersey girl, really outspoken the whole
- 37:32call, hadn't said anything and.
- 37:35uhoh
- 37:36Everybody said, yeah.
- 37:36And I'm like, okay, why hasn't she said anything?
- 37:38So I say, we're about to wrap up the call.
- 37:40I said, you know, Candace, would you like to add anything?
- 37:42You know, anything you wanna say about that before we, we wrap up.
- 37:44And she goes, you know, Judy, I wasn't gonna say anything and I
- 37:47almost didn't because I really, truly didn't know if this would be a
- 37:49value to you or if this would help.
- 37:51But since you asked, I'm just gonna say it the second she says that to me.
- 37:56I kid you not.
- 37:57I get the back sweat, my heart starts racing.
- 37:59I have the corporate PTSD I'm holding onto my table because I know what
- 38:04Candace with, with IBM's gonna tell me.
- 38:07She's gonna tell me to not be too much.
- 38:10She's gonna tell me to tone it down.
- 38:11She's gonna tell me to, you know, maybe watch what I wear, not do
- 38:14my hair too crazy, maybe don't wear that hot pink suit, whatever.
- 38:17Or graffiti, you know, graffiti like that could, you know.
- 38:21So I like, she's gonna tell me to tone it down.
- 38:22I'm like, shit, here we go.
- 38:24Right?
- 38:25And I'm holding onto the table.
- 38:26She goes.
- 38:27So yeah, Judy, we have had a lot of, lot of speakers on our stages
- 38:29over the years, and she goes and they all have their thing.
- 38:33They all look a certain way.
- 38:34They all talk a certain way.
- 38:35They all dress a certain way.
- 38:37They all move their body a certain way.
- 38:38They all tell stories a certain way.
- 38:40So Judy, you're gonna have your thing.
- 38:42And I guess what I'm trying to say is, whatever your thing is, my girl,
- 38:46Do more of
- 38:47it.
- 38:48Be more of it.
- 38:50She
- 38:51what beautiful permission
- 38:52be more you.
- 38:54I get it emotional.
- 38:56I was, I mean, I tell the story on stage and I'm like, you know, here I am.
- 39:01It, it gave me number one in an instant.
- 39:05I felt in 10 years of doing this as a pro speaker, no one's ever told
- 39:09me that, number one, number two.
- 39:12in
- 39:12an instant, I felt so safe to show up as the full expression of myself.
- 39:17It poured more co confidence and courage onto the courage and swagger.
- 39:20I already had to be even more me up there, and it was my answer because if
- 39:25Candace at IBM, senior Vice President of Sales inside of IBM exist, so do others.
- 39:32So I blow up the safe talk.
- 39:35I decide to give the self-expression talk.
- 39:37And for the first time ever in Huntington Beach in front of 2000 women
- 39:41in technology, I gave the art of self expressionism talk where I take the brain
- 39:45and I divide it into four questions.
- 39:47Questions.
- 39:48I divided into four quadrants, each quadrant aligning with H-O-L-L-E-R, and
- 39:52I taught for the first time ever, the art of self expressionism to a standing
- 39:57ovation, to a rebooking in New York this December on the spot and 35 direct
- 40:03leads to come into other organizations, three of which I've already booked.
- 40:07So.
- 40:08That's, that's, that was all I needed to know that Okay.
- 40:12Divine assignment.
- 40:13Okay.
- 40:14Divine alignment.
- 40:15Okay.
- 40:15Trusting the gate of enthusiasm, trusting the, everything that, that I have known
- 40:21to be true and proceeding despite the fear and, and kind of coming back on myself.
- 40:26So it, it was a life defining moment.
- 40:29And, and, you know, I'm so grateful for it.
- 40:32Canda, Candace will go down in history, and the second she said it
- 40:34to me, I go, oh, that's, that's that.
- 40:37I'm gonna tell this story for a real, so of course I go into that keynote
- 40:41and I open with that story, and Candace is in the room, and now it's my open.
- 40:46I tell that story a little differently on stage, and I, I,
- 40:48and I'm like, that's the point.
- 40:49So my segue is just imagine if we could do more of that.
- 40:53If leaders inside of our organizations did more of that, what if we
- 40:56did more of that for each other?
- 40:57Like, what could we, what could we create and
- 40:59could we become and how could we innovate?
- 41:02And so it's the open.
- 41:04I love that.
- 41:06And I love that, you know.
- 41:08Because I think we, we have an idea like, what will it take for me to be a speaker?
- 41:11What will it take for me to be a, you know, to, to be successful?
- 41:15And we can tend to look at other people's way.
- 41:19Yep.
- 41:19And, and that's my thing with human design is, you know, there is no
- 41:23the way and that's how, that's how things have been up until now.
- 41:27It's been like, this is the way Yeah.
- 41:29There's the Russell Brunson way.
- 41:30There's the, this way.
- 41:31Yeah.
- 41:31There's, that was Tony Robbins way.
- 41:33Yeah.
- 41:33There were all of these people that set off like these hard lined courses,
- 41:37which I think at the time is probably what people needed to start to embrace
- 41:44these new ways of doing things, was to be like, okay, give me the track for this.
- 41:48Yeah.
- 41:48Because it's all very new.
- 41:49Yeah.
- 41:49But now that we've been on that track, now that I think, I think we're ready
- 41:53to hear that, you know, there is no the way, there's only your way.
- 41:57And finding your way is the sustainable path.
- 42:02Yeah.
- 42:02And that's the way to success because we've all
- 42:04seen be, you know.
- 42:06pink suits and graffiti, I would not be able to work.
- 42:11It's not yours that 'cause it's not me.
- 42:13It's not yours.
- 42:14I have my way, I have my vibe and I'm a Manny Jen.
- 42:18Yeah.
- 42:18So it's not like, and again, it's like we have these preconceived notions about
- 42:22what these types or what these things are.
- 42:24And, and it's, it's not that, it's not a projector.
- 42:29Like you had an idea of what a projector was like, that it was
- 42:31gonna be dull or lifeless Yeah.
- 42:33Or something.
- 42:33And it's like Taylor Swift's a
- 42:34a projector.
- 42:35Oh yeah.
- 42:35Like, I mean, you know, it's
- 42:37like she's not
- 42:38lying in bed.
- 42:38No girl
- 42:39busy.
- 42:40Girl busy.
- 42:41She got new album.
- 42:42She's a poet.
- 42:42I mean a, a poet
- 42:44songwriter, entrepreneur, Elance elegance that she does things.
- 42:48Mm-hmm.
- 42:48She don't waste time.
- 42:49No.
- 42:50Obviously.
- 42:50No.
- 42:52She's a finisher.
- 42:54If, if, and then some,
- 42:55was, that's another new, my God, it's, she's a machine madness.
- 42:58I know she's an animal, she's a machine.
- 43:00I love it.
- 43:01But, but you know, there's, there's not a way that any of
- 43:05these things expresses itself.
- 43:06There's your way and for you, your way, I think you're very much
- 43:11living this purpose, this destiny that you have, which is to be an
- 43:15example of and guide people to.
- 43:18Their most enthusiastic life.
- 43:20What they're enthusiastic about is not gonna be what you're enthusiastic
- 43:23about, but for you, you're like, it's this, it's hollering at your dreams.
- 43:27And I think that that's so incredibly valuable.
- 43:30And I wanted to, part of the reason I wanted to have you on the show is I've
- 43:34wanted to have conversations on this show.
- 43:36'cause I think that there is some confusion over what
- 43:40it really takes to succeed.
- 43:42Mm-hmm.
- 43:42And there are so many strategic paths to go down.
- 43:46There are so many, you know, like, I need to have events, or I need
- 43:48to, I, I need to be this person because they did it that way.
- 43:53And I, to me, and I wanna ask you the question, um, what do you
- 43:59think, if there's anything universal in success, you have success.
- 44:06You're around a lot of people who have, who have, you know,
- 44:09had various degrees of success.
- 44:12What do you see?
- 44:13If you were to be like, I know there's not
- 44:15one thing, but
- 44:16you were like, there's, this
- 44:18is the most important thing,
- 44:21what do you feel
- 44:22it is
- 44:22for, for success?
- 44:24Yeah.
- 44:24To be successful in life?
- 44:26In life.
- 44:27I think it is a significant tolerance for pain spoken, like an emotional,
- 44:37you know, you know, and I, I, you know, I'm a professionally trained,
- 44:40you know, you're an actress.
- 44:42I'm a professionally trained improviser and, and, you know, improv is, I do improv
- 44:45on stage in my keynotes, so I use art and poetry and music and graffiti and improv.
- 44:50I get people on stage that they're really in interactive, but improv changed my
- 44:54life and it, it, one of the biggest things it did for me was really help me get.
- 44:59Chill about the cringe and chill about the failure and chill about the
- 45:03getting it wrong and the chill about the looking stupid, because I think
- 45:05that's the level of success there.
- 45:07There's so many people that want the quick fix the course.
- 45:10So the solution, and listen, I've taken courses that have changed my life.
- 45:13Marie Forleo's B School in 2013 when I took that, taught me everything
- 45:17about building an online business.
- 45:18And then I went and made it mine and turned it into all these other things.
- 45:21So there are some beautiful tools like human design courses, learning, and
- 45:25there there, of course, go out there and get that education for yourself.
- 45:29In the speaking business,
- 45:34I have a very big problem with.
- 45:39People promising overnight success in this space, or manufacturing preview
- 45:44videos or editing clips to make you look good on stage and stopping and starting.
- 45:48There's a lot of this that happens and that ain't, that ain't real.
- 45:51That ain't AAU authentic.
- 45:53'cause now someone's gonna hire you and you can't really deliver a full talk.
- 45:56And you know, I need to see you speaking for six minutes straight, no edits.
- 46:00You know, can you deliver that?
- 46:01I love your sizzle.
- 46:02And we need those, we need those chopped up jump cuts.
- 46:04People love that.
- 46:05Get to it, right?
- 46:06You gotta jump cut for Instagram and all that.
- 46:07But like, do you have tape of you for six minutes at minimum,
- 46:11delivering a key, a keynote on stage?
- 46:13You know?
- 46:13And if you don't have that, you know you're not ready
- 46:16for the corporate stages yet.
- 46:17Go get that.
- 46:18You know, and, and, and, and start building to that.
- 46:20You build to that.
- 46:21But what it takes, what success takes is a tolerance for pain, in my opinion.
- 46:26Patience.
- 46:29The ability to focus and stay in your lane and put those blinders on
- 46:33and to buckle up and do the work.
- 46:36And, and, and sometimes maddeningly watch other people get it before you
- 46:42and watch people less talented go, you know, and, and, and watch other people
- 46:47win, you know, and, and, and, you know, you have to just do the work and, and,
- 46:53and, and, and have the bad talks and the cringe moments and the bad off outfits.
- 46:58And, you know, I'll never forget my first keynote where I was hired and
- 47:00I, I was like 11 years ago and I was paid money and I had a video crew and
- 47:04I wore all these chains and I had a microphone on, and I lost all the video
- 47:08because I was ching ching, ching ching, ching ching, like all these things.
- 47:10And just like.
- 47:11Just so many, so many bad talks, so many bad slide decks, so many
- 47:18bad ballrooms, so many bad outfits.
- 47:21I mean, go through a scroll into the archives of my Instagram and
- 47:25you will see an evolution of cringe.
- 47:28You know, you will watch me even the way I look changes, right?
- 47:32Because as I, you know, just, oh, it's just, it's interesting, you know, I,
- 47:36I would, you know, even with the way I was forcing my, not becoming by
- 47:40blonding my hair, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a dark haired girl, you know, and I, I
- 47:44came back to my natural color over the years, and I think it's just helped
- 47:46me look better and more like myself.
- 47:48But I was like fighting who I was.
- 47:50I just like, but I love her because it's the becoming of, and the,
- 47:54and the, the braveness required on the relentless pursuit of figuring
- 47:59out what dope is for you, right?
- 48:01What, what a, a wildly precious, dangerously inspiring I life is for you.
- 48:07And so success is what?
- 48:12At the end of the day, it's, it's the, it's the un unpretty stuff.
- 48:14It's just the, the work and being real.
- 48:17And being real and not faking it, you know?
- 48:20'cause we don't fake it around here.
- 48:22We make it around here.
- 48:23And I think that's a big difference.
- 48:24Sometimes you have to.
- 48:26You know, you know, right now we're, we're chasing the USA today bestseller.
- 48:29So we're trying to make this book a national bestseller, right?
- 48:31And so I am literally walking around seductively slow in this.
- 48:35Like, what does it, like, how does a national bestseller, like, oh, I'm about
- 48:38to go, oh, I'm booked on the, you know, I'm booked on Good Morning America.
- 48:41If I sit down, what, how does, like I'm trying to move around
- 48:44in that energy of it already is.
- 48:46Yeah.
- 48:46And so how does she dress today?
- 48:48How does she show up today?
- 48:49How does she get ready today?
- 48:50What does her vanity look like?
- 48:52What is she drinking in the morning?
- 48:53What is she not drinking?
- 48:54What is she eating?
- 48:55What is she not eating?
- 48:56So, but that's not faking it, that's making it until you make it.
- 48:59I'm already, so maybe, you know, so you see what I'm saying?
- 49:01That's an energy faking it is like.
- 49:03Trying to do what someone else is doing or putting yourself into a box
- 49:06or bending like gummy gumby or caging yourself or wearing something like
- 49:10sitting here on this podcast being like really uncomfortable and all these
- 49:13Spanx, because like I wore something.
- 49:15Because I think that's how I'm supposed to show up on her.
- 49:16No, I'm like, I'm gonna wear the denim dress and the white boots.
- 49:18I feel like I need
- 49:19big hoops.
- 49:20Like, okay,
- 49:20okay, that's the vibe, right?
- 49:21Like
- 49:21that's just like a comfort, right?
- 49:23So I
- 49:23think success is comfort on the other side of courage.
- 49:27And it takes, and there's a journey to getting to that level of comfort.
- 49:30You have
- 49:31a long journey.
- 49:31I'm 49 years old and I'm just, I'm still
- 49:33it out.
- 49:34Like, I'm staring on the barrel of 50 and I
- 49:36feel like, oh my gosh,
- 49:37finally.
- 49:38You know what I mean?
- 49:39But you're a sixth line as well.
- 49:40So this is, this is that, you know, you're in that
- 49:43magic moment.
- 49:44It's the time.
- 49:44Like,
- 49:44ta-da, ta-da.
- 49:46I'm finally, here she is, baby.
- 49:48We've been working to this moment.
- 49:50We've been, we've been getting here the whole time.
- 49:53The whole, all the pain
- 49:54is on purpose.
- 49:54And I think like what was coming through for me, as you said,
- 49:57all of that was, it's, there's endurance to, Ooh, I love that word.
- 50:03Rise to the potential that you feel is there, even when you can't grab it.
- 50:10Yeah.
- 50:10Even when it's not.
- 50:11And that I, I love
- 50:12that you said, you know, that it doesn't happen overnight, that you
- 50:16have the patience to sit with it, to be bad, to fail, and I feel like
- 50:21to be judged, to be misunderstood.
- 50:23Yeah.
- 50:23To have your friends and family go.
- 50:24Uh oh, look at her.
- 50:25She loves herself.
- 50:26Look at her on the Instagram.
- 50:27Oh, she loves herself.
- 50:29Okay.
- 50:30Yeah, I do.
- 50:30And guess what?
- 50:31I'm hollering at a dream.
- 50:32So, yeah.
- 50:34You know, somebody, somebody said, you're too much.
- 50:36Somebody literally recently said me.
- 50:37Oh, Judy, you know, you're a lot.
- 50:39You know, and, and I go, okay, well then go be less like, mm.
- 50:44You free to do that,
- 50:45you're free to do that too.
- 50:46But like you have that too.
- 50:48Like there will be people that do not understand your assignment and you have
- 50:53to be okay with dropping some of the, those relationships like business calc.
- 50:57I've had to shed a lot of people and a lot of layers in this
- 51:01becoming too, and that is hard.
- 51:02There will people, that there will be people that you deeply love that do not,
- 51:09because then if you change and you go and you grow, oh, you're not their safe thing
- 51:14And you also hold up a mirror for what they're not ready to do in themselves.
- 51:16So that is hard.
- 51:17That's a, that's a dance in itself.
- 51:20And that's, you know, I, I feel like.
- 51:22We think, because in the moment that feels bad, the fact that
- 51:26we've grown and somebody else is not handling that very well.
- 51:30But you also may be the permission slip that causes them to the catalyst for them
- 51:35to say, maybe that's possible for me too, or maybe my version of that is possible
- 51:40for me to, so I think our preconceived notions about, you know, that that
- 51:44momentary pain about, you know, whether, you know, we don't wanna offend anybody,
- 51:48we don't wanna, you know, so I will.
- 51:50Sacrificed myself to please you.
- 51:52Oh.
- 51:52Or to make you comfortable.
- 51:53Yep.
- 51:54And I, I, I thank you for sharing all of that because I think that
- 51:58it gets distorted and there's so
- 52:00many voices out there and there's so much noise.
- 52:02And with the show
- 52:04part of my mission, we just hit 400
- 52:05episodes.
- 52:06Oh, I'm so, that's no smoke.
- 52:08So you've been on the
- 52:08about four
- 52:09years then, huh?
- 52:10Yeah.
- 52:10Yeah.
- 52:11Five.
- 52:11That's no small feat.
- 52:11That's no small feat.
- 52:12Congratulations.
- 52:13Thank you.
- 52:14And just at that, like, whenever I hit a milestone, it's like,
- 52:17okay, well now what's the mission?
- 52:19Like, let's revisit this.
- 52:20What, what else?
- 52:21I'm not gonna like next.
- 52:22Yeah.
- 52:23Well, and like, what's evolution?
- 52:24What do I wanna step into?
- 52:25What's the message that I wanna bring to the show?
- 52:27We've talked about 400 things on here.
- 52:29Yeah.
- 52:30So what's, what's kind of the next iteration?
- 52:32And for me, I really want to bring voices on where they can
- 52:36share what, what it really takes.
- 52:39because there's a lot of bullshit
- 52:41there.
- 52:42and
- 52:42there is.
- 52:43I want this to be a place
- 52:44of so much no
- 52:45bullshit.
- 52:46Yes.
- 52:47Welcome to the show.
- 52:48Welcome to the show.
- 52:49I just, yeah.
- 52:51You come from the acting world and in, even in the speaking world, you know,
- 52:55and I think we're moving into, as we sort of prepare to welcome the sleeping
- 53:00fe, the sleeping phoenix into the energetics of our world in 2027 and, and.
- 53:06Into the next 400 years.
- 53:07You know, we're the new, I think US creatives and us, um, lightworkers
- 53:12and US paradigm shifters and US human designers are, are the
- 53:18new, the new, the new soldiers.
- 53:20We're on the front lines of this revolution, and it is more important
- 53:23now than ever if the future is going to be about individual.
- 53:27Individuality.
- 53:28If old systems and structures and antiquated ways of doing and being are
- 53:33going to be burnt down, they will over the next 400 years, and it's going
- 53:37to be, and it's going to be about self sovereignty and taking power
- 53:41back and individual individuality, it feels like a really good time to
- 53:47understand who the F you are, what.
- 53:51Is real for you.
- 53:52Like for real, real.
- 53:54Because everybody says keep it real.
- 53:55So what is real for you?
- 53:57What's your point of view?
- 53:58What's your perspective?
- 53:59What are you inspired by?
- 54:00Right?
- 54:01Are you in the laboratory of your life?
- 54:03Are you out there recreating to recreate so you can build a
- 54:07point of view and perspective?
- 54:09You wanna cool keynote, you want a great book?
- 54:12Go live an Interesting Life and tell me all about it.
- 54:15Because that's what's gonna make you unique and original and an individual in a
- 54:18world that is getting more systemized and fake and botted and AI AIed by the minute.
- 54:23So now's the time.
- 54:24We're the soldiers, we're on the front lines and I am just so excited
- 54:27be a part of it and think of what, what it's gonna do for all
- 54:30the babies, the kids watching us.
- 54:32We are the
- 54:33soldiers.
- 54:34Yeah,
- 54:34I love that.
- 54:35And I think about that all the time because especially now we're
- 54:38in a world where facts, who even knows what a fact is anymore.
- 54:41Like it's totally put into question.
- 54:44Um, I've, I watched the other day, I watched a video where
- 54:46I'm, I I was watching it.
- 54:47It sounded so real.
- 54:48It sounded so.
- 54:50It's unbelievable.
- 54:50And, and I looked at it, I was like, that's a fake mouth.
- 54:52And he wouldn't say these things.
- 54:54Yes.
- 54:54And, and I'm, I'm watching it.
- 54:56I'm like, oh, this is a, this is a deep fake.
- 54:57And so now, uh, and what I think Scary human design's role in all of
- 55:04this as I see it, or the thing that I think is really valuable is you're
- 55:08not trusting the outside world.
- 55:10We're not looking for these trusted things which are gonna go away.
- 55:15Yep.
- 55:15Um, to validate our opinions, but to actually come back home to us and
- 55:20to make decisions from our truth.
- 55:22And I think a lot of us have not known for a long time what our truth really is.
- 55:27Yes.
- 55:27'cause we've been.
- 55:28I, we have been identifying with the outside world.
- 55:31We've been looking at the outside world to say, tell me what to do.
- 55:33Tell me who I am.
- 55:35Tell me what's me and what's right for me.
- 55:37Tell me what I need to do to get the things that I want.
- 55:39I wanna write the book.
- 55:40I wanna write, I'm, I'm in the process of, you know, you know, trying
- 55:44to find a book pub publisher and
- 55:46I am,
- 55:46am.
- 55:47I said I
- 55:48to write a book for years,
- 55:49but there was, I
- 55:50know the book wasn't ready
- 55:52' cause I
- 55:53ready.
- 55:54I wasn't there.
- 55:55yet.
- 55:55Oh, you were writing it?
- 55:56Oh, by the way,
- 55:57oh, I been writing it the whole time.
- 55:58Your life is the writing.
- 56:00Like
- 56:00you, you are, you have been writing this book your whole life.
- 56:01This is my first album.
- 56:03Like, you know, like bands have like their first album and it's like, it's like Pearl
- 56:06Jam 10 or something where it's like, this is the, you were working, their whole
- 56:10life has been culminating at this moment.
- 56:12And, but I wasn't, it wasn't ready to be born.
- 56:17And I respected that timeline and there were some people in my life
- 56:21that would say to me like, you know, you've been talking about it for years.
- 56:23You just have to, you just have to do it.
- 56:24And I'm like,
- 56:25It really just feels like it's not there yet.
- 56:29Yeah.
- 56:29You don't feel like I'm procrastinating.
- 56:31Oh, I
- 56:31feel like I'm brewing.
- 56:33See, and you're feeling into it as, as an emotional, that is the,
- 56:36the big question I'm asking myself.
- 56:38Yeah.
- 56:38You'd be so proud of me.
- 56:38I've been telling people, I'm like, let me, you know what, thank
- 56:41you so much for that request.
- 56:42I, I, I love it.
- 56:43Let me feel into it and I'll get back to you in the next couple of days.
- 56:46But yeah, I mean, I feel you honest.
- 56:48It's an ultimate power move.
- 56:49Let me, let me feel into that.
- 56:51And you know, in COVID, all my speaker friends, everybody,
- 56:55they're like, okay, cool.
- 56:55We're just gonna drop a book.
- 56:56A book, a book.
- 56:57Everybody started dropping all these books and everybody's like, hall, eight
- 56:59years it took me to write my next book.
- 57:01I was like, I wasn't ready.
- 57:02It, she wasn't there yet.
- 57:03She hadn't hit.
- 57:03And then when Hollerer hit, when it hit, it hit and I knew
- 57:07exactly what I was gonna do.
- 57:08So you're on that path, like you're, you felt it into it.
- 57:11Now she's ready.
- 57:11But yeah, you're taking your power back.
- 57:13You know, it is about not looking outside of you.
- 57:16It's looking inside of you.
- 57:16Like Dorothy the red, the ruby red slippers, she had
- 57:19'em the whole freaking time.
- 57:21It was always inside of her.
- 57:22She didn't need Oz. And I think that's it in a nutshell.
- 57:24That's the metaphor.
- 57:25There is no Oz. It's why like you even look, you know, take, draw
- 57:29the parallels to self-publishing.
- 57:31People are artists no longer going with big labels.
- 57:34A lot of these musicians are like the Doche of the world.
- 57:37They're pulling back their power and they're creating their
- 57:39own armies and their own team and their own worlds, right?
- 57:42It's why kids are like, oh, I don't need Disney anymore and actually I don't need
- 57:47to go to audition for Saturday Night Live.
- 57:49I'm gonna make my own show and I'm gonna be whatever Mr. Beast or this,
- 57:52this, this, and create my own world.
- 57:56That's where, that's how Sleeping Phoenix feels for me energetically and
- 58:01creative creatively for a lot of people.
- 58:02So I think whether you're writing a book or building a show or creating
- 58:07anything new, this is a good time to like self sovereignty here because the
- 58:13way it used to be done, you don't there gatekeepers, I think it's kind of.
- 58:17We are the gay,
- 58:18Like we're gonna be able to like sort of hire ourselves, which
- 58:21is really cool to consider.
- 58:23Right.
- 58:23We hold the power.
- 58:25I think authenticity is its own currency.
- 58:27Yeah.
- 58:27I think that that's, and I think that we are moving into a space right now where
- 58:31people are feeling into the investments that they make, into the people that
- 58:36they put their time and energy into.
- 58:38They're energetically feeling into that more than ever, rather than looking
- 58:42at the features or the credentials or that, it's just like, do I feel
- 58:47something authentic from this person?
- 58:49And I think for the first time that's becoming the, you know, one of the
- 58:53top priorities versus, you know, all of the other accolades and things.
- 58:59And I think if people start to prioritize that within themselves,
- 59:03the minute I started to prioritize who I was and my le my level of
- 59:09authenticity with myself and making that my priority, everything changed.
- 59:14And
- 59:15design was just the framework that I used to find that, and to not, and to stop.
- 59:20Instead of being like, you know what's authentic?
- 59:22Let me go watch this person's video online and see what their authentic is, and
- 59:25then see if I could be that authentic and
- 59:27That's not authentic.
- 59:28Instead, I went like, like, to me and the lens of the chart was just
- 59:32like, let's explore this aspect of
- 59:35yeah.
- 59:35Because of how am I not living that?
- 59:37Yes.
- 59:38And,
- 59:38and be like, Ooh.
- 59:39Yeah.
- 59:40You got curious.
- 59:41I
- 59:41got very curious because if something doesn't belong to you, it won't stay with
- 59:43you and you won't wanna stay with it.
- 59:45Right.
- 59:45And so yes and correct.
- 59:48Do not go out and paint your life with someone else's brush.
- 59:51And so the canvas of your life.
- 59:53And so human design is a beautiful tool to, to if you, it's a,
- 59:58it's a great place to start.
- 59:59I, I don't know.
- 1:00:00I wish this was taught in school, like it is the future.
- 1:00:03It is, to me it is.
- 1:00:05The one thing I would say I have done personally that has changed.
- 1:00:09'cause when I read my chart and when I really started to unpack, I was like.
- 1:00:13The level of understanding I had in myself and the level of confidence
- 1:00:19I got because I felt so protected.
- 1:00:22I was like, yep, here's why I'm here.
- 1:00:24This has all been on purpose.
- 1:00:25I am in the neighborhood.
- 1:00:27I'm just moving into a new house, as you told me,
- 1:00:30a
- 1:00:30different house down the street.
- 1:00:31We're just gonna upgrade a little bit.
- 1:00:33Um, but, but like, oh my God, if you are, I mean, everybody listening is
- 1:00:39likely obsessed with human design like we are, but, um, you know, it's
- 1:00:44a really beautiful tool to figure out who you are and what real is for you.
- 1:00:48And so I think one of the biggest things you can ask yourself, and
- 1:00:51this is something I ask people at networking events, is, you know
- 1:00:53what, you know, instead of the what do you do and where are you from?
- 1:00:56And tell me where are you vacation I the small talk, the, if you ever
- 1:01:00see me out, I'm gonna ask you this.
- 1:01:01So would you have an answer?
- 1:01:02And I'd love to know your answer right now.
- 1:01:04Um, I. What inspires you?
- 1:01:06Like, so what's inspiring you right now?
- 1:01:08Because now I, now I now I don't get the corporate mask.
- 1:01:11I get you.
- 1:01:12What are you reading?
- 1:01:13What are you listening to?
- 1:01:13Where are you traveling?
- 1:01:14Are you inspired by Spain?
- 1:01:15Are you inspired by graffiti?
- 1:01:16Did you just go somewhere cool?
- 1:01:17What, what are I'm really into protein and yogurt.
- 1:01:19Oh my God, I'm doing this thing at the gym.
- 1:01:21Like
- 1:01:21I start to find out who you
- 1:01:23are and what's inspiring you right now.
- 1:01:26What?
- 1:01:26Whether it's what you're reading, what you're listening to, what you're
- 1:01:29wearing, what you're vibing with, right?
- 1:01:31So like what is that thing that's inspiring you right now is a
- 1:01:34beautiful thing to be able to answer.
- 1:01:36And if you don't have a list of the people, places and things that inspire
- 1:01:39you in your notes on your iPhone, go
- 1:01:41that.
- 1:01:41That's homework assignment.
- 1:01:42Like keep that running list.
- 1:01:44You know, I'll have things that are forever inspiring me.
- 1:01:46Things like Gilda Radner, right?
- 1:01:48She's one of my biggest inspirations.
- 1:01:50Oh my God.
- 1:01:50You know, I mean.
- 1:01:51My mom's favorite.
- 1:01:52Oh
- 1:01:52my God.
- 1:01:53Gilda, I mean, was amused for me.
- 1:01:55The Beastie Boys, the boombox, graffiti, the graffiti, the
- 1:02:00entire generation of the nineties.
- 1:02:02Like these are OGs, neon colors, these are OG denim.
- 1:02:06These are, these are OGs in my life that have always
- 1:02:08inspired me in everything I do.
- 1:02:10Go take a spin through my world and you'll see that.
- 1:02:12But then there are new things that come in, you know, that I get inspired by.
- 1:02:14I moved to the desert and I start to get to know cactuses.
- 1:02:17I'm like, yo, like a cactus blooms in the desert.
- 1:02:20Yeah, no water, flowers.
- 1:02:21I'm like, dude, if I can do that, I can do anything.
- 1:02:23You know?
- 1:02:23So I got really inspired by cacti and now I'm really into, like, I just
- 1:02:27picked up a crocheting thing and I'm, I'm really into spray paint right now,
- 1:02:30so I'm so playing with spray paint.
- 1:02:32I'm really, so again, it makes me an
- 1:02:34person and it inspires my work.
- 1:02:36So what are you inspired by, Nicole?
- 1:02:38I'd love to know what you're inspired by now.
- 1:02:39Like what's really turning you on right now?
- 1:02:42What am I inspired by right now?
- 1:02:43I have actually gone back in time, so I was very much in the here and now for a
- 1:02:47while, like musically and stuff like that.
- 1:02:49Music has always been one of my biggest inspirations.
- 1:02:52Um, I was a music, you know, kid, I had an almost famous moment in my life where
- 1:02:57I like knew these people in concerts.
- 1:03:00So I was like, I went to like every show in New York City for like three years.
- 1:03:03And you s are you a singer?
- 1:03:05I'm not a singer.
- 1:03:06I can sing.
- 1:03:06Okay.
- 1:03:06I can, I can carry a tune, but I would not call myself a singer.
- 1:03:09I wish I could have been a singer, but like, yeah, I've sat on like,
- 1:03:12you know, on the speakers on the side of the stage at Pearl Jam and
- 1:03:14stuff like that with like Meg Ryan.
- 1:03:16Like I had moments like that.
- 1:03:17Um, but, but right now, yeah, I've gone back to like the nineties.
- 1:03:21I've gone back to like nineties rock.
- 1:03:22'cause I was like an alternative girl and I'm just sort of, kind of swimming in the.
- 1:03:29The, it's, it was very
- 1:03:31angsty.
- 1:03:31Yeah.
- 1:03:32time.
- 1:03:32And while I don't feel angsty necessarily, and I, I am kind of raging
- 1:03:37against the machine a little bit at the moment, another great band from
- 1:03:39the, and I know I've been, I've been, I've been cranking them in the car,
- 1:03:42I'm gonna play them one on my ride home and.
- 1:03:43Like
- 1:03:44Rock, like, it's kind of just been, been speaking to me at
- 1:03:47the moment, going back to like,
- 1:03:49there's something in there, this is fun.
- 1:03:51And, and just, just the sounds.
- 1:03:53And I've been really inspired by just the emotionality.
- 1:03:58Of that time there was like, it was like a big open wound, the nineties
- 1:04:04of just like, there was joy, there was, there was hope, but there was
- 1:04:09also just like, look at our pain.
- 1:04:11Yeah.
- 1:04:11Rebellion.
- 1:04:12It's real.
- 1:04:13Yeah.
- 1:04:13And there's something that's just kind of calling to me right now where, and
- 1:04:17there were times where I couldn't listen to it like I used to and then, but
- 1:04:21I'm having a moment with it right now.
- 1:04:22So that's kind of like, I worked out this morning, I was told, I worked
- 1:04:24out to like Stone Temple pilots and, and all of those old bands.
- 1:04:28And I've just kind of been watching, like when I cook, my husband and I cook, we,
- 1:04:33we put on like old concerts on YouTube and we dance and we cook and I'm, I'm
- 1:04:39fully like in love with all of that.
- 1:04:43And yeah.
- 1:04:43And then outside of that, it's honestly, I'm inspired by silence right now.
- 1:04:47I like walks without the earbuds.
- 1:04:50Great answer.
- 1:04:51And just listening to.
- 1:04:53Birds and walking my dogs and just having nothing and seeing what that space like
- 1:05:01a walking meditation can drop in for me.
- 1:05:05Mm-hmm.
- 1:05:05Like when I create the space.
- 1:05:07'cause I realize I'm a mangen.
- 1:05:09I'm not great at creating space, not my strong suit.
- 1:05:12You know, we can fill time.
- 1:05:14You'd like to fill time.
- 1:05:15We love to move.
- 1:05:17Yeah.
- 1:05:17And,
- 1:05:17and I love to move so I can move, but I can also be quiet.
- 1:05:20And that's sort of something that's, that's kind of, you know,
- 1:05:23fill in my soul at the moment.
- 1:05:25Thank you for all.
- 1:05:26Okay.
- 1:05:26Look what So listener.
- 1:05:28Watch her.
- 1:05:29Look what just happened there.
- 1:05:30That's Nicole.
- 1:05:31That's not a mask.
- 1:05:32That's something very interesting and unique and real.
- 1:05:36And.
- 1:05:38I can't wait to watch what you do with some of this self-discovery and some of
- 1:05:43this inspiration, and the silence answer was so unexpected and so beautiful, and.
- 1:05:50You know, as a projector just makes my soul sing, right?
- 1:05:52Because the silence is just like, you know, that, that thing to get
- 1:05:55really comfortable with over here if you wanna be at the fullest
- 1:05:58expression of your projectism.
- 1:05:59But, um, wow, Nicole, like, that's, that's why we want an answer to that question.
- 1:06:04So who are you?
- 1:06:05And, and, and I think it's hard to know who you are if you don't
- 1:06:07have things you're inspired by.
- 1:06:08If you're not out in your life living it, if you're not, the first thing
- 1:06:12cut is recreation and vacations and fun stuff and creative expression.
- 1:06:16We take it off our calendar 'cause we're slammed and busy and overwhelmed.
- 1:06:18But it's actually in all of that, that you, you find out who you are.
- 1:06:22So, you know, court your creativity, take yourself out on those weekly And
- 1:06:26Labat writes about, you know, those creativity, no, Julia Cameron, in the
- 1:06:29artist's way, the creativity dates, right?
- 1:06:32You know, so are you, are you an active participant in the
- 1:06:35creative process that is your life?
- 1:06:36And all of that will give you point of view and.
- 1:06:39If you wanna create something, you have to court that creativity court.
- 1:06:43You've got to, you've, you've got to end silence,
- 1:06:47Journaling, all of those ways of just experiencing and
- 1:06:50time with
- 1:06:50yourself Yeah.
- 1:06:51Is
- 1:06:52that can come through.
- 1:06:52You can't do
- 1:06:53it when you're moving all the
- 1:06:54time.
- 1:06:54No.
- 1:06:55Um, so should we, should we ask the book of questions?
- 1:06:58Okay.
- 1:06:58Let's, you want me to read?
- 1:06:59We'll do an article, Oracle reading.
- 1:07:00So ladies and gentlemen, we're gonna flip through, holler at your dreams
- 1:07:03and, uh, see what she gives us today.
- 1:07:06You know, as we sort of think about how we wanna wrap this up and what message,
- 1:07:10um, we're gonna leave, leave not just the listeners with, but ourselves with today.
- 1:07:14So this is for all of us listening.
- 1:07:15We just shared space together, sacred, sacred space together.
- 1:07:18So let's, let's get the message.
- 1:07:20We need to move on with our day and have, uh, her tell us.
- 1:07:23And I'm gonna, I'm gonna give her a couple flips here, but I think I kind of wanna do
- 1:07:27a
- 1:07:28a soft flip to the beginning here somewhere.
- 1:07:31Oh my gosh.
- 1:07:34What
- 1:07:35Oh lord.
- 1:07:36Okay.
- 1:07:37We opened to graveyard of dreams, which is very interesting because intuitively
- 1:07:42at the beginning when we were talking about what one of your fears was when we
- 1:07:46were talking about fear, you were like, you know, the things I haven't done,
- 1:07:49the things I've held back on are really these things that, you know, it's, the
- 1:07:52truth about it is the fear of success.
- 1:07:53Oh my God, what if it works?
- 1:07:55And what if I become and what if, oh my God, there's a tension.
- 1:07:57And what if people see me?
- 1:07:58And then now, oh my God, I'm gonna get feedback and oh my God, it's, it's scary.
- 1:08:02Growth is scary because.
- 1:08:03Success is the real true fear, the master fear, the mother of all fears, right?
- 1:08:07So, so many what I was gonna say to you, and then we moved on.
- 1:08:10So many dreams end up in the graveyard because of that, the graveyard of dreams.
- 1:08:14And so I opened to Graveyard of Dreams, a piece in the book and I'll read it to you.
- 1:08:18And there's also a poem on the other side called State of Emergency.
- 1:08:22This is a state of emergency, so I might read you the last section of state
- 1:08:26of emergency and graveyard of dreams.
- 1:08:28'cause they kind of go together.
- 1:08:29So graveyard of Dreams.
- 1:08:31One of my favorite quotes of all time is the Les Brown Graveyard of Dreams quote.
- 1:08:35And honestly, it reads more like a piece of poetry than a quote, an epitaph, an
- 1:08:39invitation, an anthem, a power ballot, a call to action that reminds us that
- 1:08:44success goes to those who keep moving.
- 1:08:47Here's what he writes.
- 1:08:49This is one of my favorite quotes of all of the earth of time.
- 1:08:52The graveyard is the richest place on earth because it is here that you will
- 1:08:57find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never
- 1:09:01written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared,
- 1:09:04the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take
- 1:09:09the first step, keep with the problem, or determined to carry out their dream.
- 1:09:19So that's the essence of hollering at your dreams.
- 1:09:22It's, it's not all the steps.
- 1:09:25It's not the perfect business plan.
- 1:09:27It's not the perfect systems or strategy.
- 1:09:29It's the first step.
- 1:09:30And then the next step, and then the next step next to it is a piece
- 1:09:33called, this is a state of emergency.
- 1:09:35And the last part of it is, there's three sections I talk about.
- 1:09:38This is a state of emergency, your mind.
- 1:09:40This is a state of emergency, your body, and I share why it's a, it's important
- 1:09:43to pay attention to those two things.
- 1:09:45But the last one is, this is a state of emergency, your soul.
- 1:09:49It always knows deep in your bones if it's a yes or if it's a no,
- 1:09:54but your ego, it loves control.
- 1:09:56Did you know that ego is just identity in a role built on fear,
- 1:10:00doubt and self patrol science.
- 1:10:02Yo, it'll trick your mind, get you misaligned.
- 1:10:05Have you thinking you're better than or less than, but you are neither.
- 1:10:09You are the ether.
- 1:10:10You are the breath between lightning and
- 1:10:13You are like
- 1:10:15no other,
- 1:10:19I'm sorry.
- 1:10:21Don't be sorry.
- 1:10:26Different by design, divinely by wonder.
- 1:10:29To read my poetry out loud is like,
- 1:10:34Thank you.
- 1:10:35Thank you for sharing it with us.
- 1:10:37It's like a dream come true.
- 1:10:39I know.
- 1:10:39I'm so sorry.
- 1:10:41Why are you sorry?
- 1:10:41Oh my God.
- 1:10:42You're hollering at your dream.
- 1:10:43It is a dream.
- 1:10:44Like I this's the first time I've be like read publicly things I've written.
- 1:10:48So privately,
- 1:10:52that is what it feels like to holler at your dreams.
- 1:10:55You know?
- 1:10:56It just is So, it's medicine, it's it's trust, it's Oh, it's vulnerable.
- 1:11:03It's scary.
- 1:11:03But yeah, I'm so proud of myself right now.
- 1:11:06Like, I just can't believe I did it, you know, and I, to share it with you.
- 1:11:10And
- 1:11:10say it out loud, I just did not expect to be so emotionally charged.
- 1:11:14But, um, it says a lot about the safety you could be.
- 1:11:16So
- 1:11:18I think it's a gift to not be like.
- 1:11:23Unfeeling walking through that, that was beautiful.
- 1:11:27And I love how that's written where the graveyard of dreams, um, that
- 1:11:34even just saying that hit home for me.
- 1:11:36So I love owning this book.
- 1:11:38You open up to that.
- 1:11:39You see graveyard of dreams and that gives you, it's like pulling a card.
- 1:11:42It's, you know, you are, you're being invited into this space to
- 1:11:46say, like, for some reason this is the message that I was given today.
- 1:11:49Yes.
- 1:11:50And what does that mean for me?
- 1:11:53Yes.
- 1:11:53Yes, me.
- 1:11:53And what if I walked through the graveyard of my dreams?
- 1:11:57Yes.
- 1:11:58What do I see there?
- 1:11:59What are the hopes and dreams that are laying there, you know?
- 1:12:02And what does it say on the.
- 1:12:03Tombstone
- 1:12:03what's lying dormant.
- 1:12:04And this, this is a state of emergency.
- 1:12:06And when I wrote that, I think that's why I felt it so deeply.
- 1:12:09'cause I was trying to tell myself like, Judy, wake up.
- 1:12:12This is a state of emergency.
- 1:12:14You are the ether my girl.
- 1:12:15You are everything.
- 1:12:17You are, you are, you are everything in all of it.
- 1:12:19And then Sum, I wrote this book to, to come to, to heal myself, you know?
- 1:12:25And so to, so to be able to say it out loud just brought me right back
- 1:12:30to where I was when I wrote it.
- 1:12:31I remember what I was wearing and where I was sitting and how I was
- 1:12:34feeling and who I was becoming.
- 1:12:36And so I really felt like I was, it was an emergency for me to remember this, right?
- 1:12:40And to come back home to myself.
- 1:12:41And so, yeah, what's a state of emergency in your life and, and what needs to be
- 1:12:46looked at acutely and urgently, uh, to bring you back home to yourself so it
- 1:12:51doesn't end up in the graveyard of dreams.
- 1:12:52And this book almost did.
- 1:12:54And I think that's why I
- 1:12:55so emotional because she, she might not have been here
- 1:12:59had I not woken up, you know,
- 1:13:03I think this is a call to, to the listener.
- 1:13:06What dream are you not honoring with your patient?
- 1:13:11With your
- 1:13:13endurance and your willingness to stay with it through the uncomfortable.
- 1:13:18Yes.
- 1:13:18And through the times where it doesn't feel like it's gonna happen.
- 1:13:21Yes.
- 1:13:22But it's yours.
- 1:13:22If it's yours.
- 1:13:23Yeah.
- 1:13:24It is sustainable.
- 1:13:25It'll be there.
- 1:13:25Yep.
