SPEAKER_00: And I'm super excited to have you here.
0:49
And the purpose of what we're going to be looking at over the

SPEAKER_00: and you will also get the slides.
1:05
SPEAKER_00: But this is for you if you're feeling overwhelmed,
1:09
SPEAKER_00: if you're maybe struggling to switch off,
1:12
SPEAKER_00: if you're a bit disconnected from where you really feel you want to be,
1:20
and you might be in some sort of transition phase and
1:23
potentially something you
1:25
know that something needs to change but you don't really know
1:27
what and you want to
1:29
live more intentionally so this is a reset session and yeah
1:37
we're gonna go through
1:38
a number of things over the course of the next few days and
1:40
it's just to let you
1:42
know it's not another productivity hack it's not another
1:45
planner and it's not about
1:46
SPEAKER_00: pushing harder
1:48
SPEAKER_00: It's just about really coming back into who you are.
1:51
SPEAKER_00: So today we're going to talk about why this matters.
1:55
SPEAKER_00: On Monday we're going to go into the hidden cost of drift.
2:00
Tuesday looking at kind of how you understand yourself a bit
2:04
more so you can really
2:07
SPEAKER_00: get into that reset frame of mind.
2:11
SPEAKER_00: Wednesday we're going to look at AI and
2:14
My philosophy is around AI for human flourishing and really
2:19
building systems that help humans.
2:22
SPEAKER_00: So we'll dig into a bit on that on Wednesday.
2:25
SPEAKER_00: Then on Thursday,
2:26
we're going to look at some of the repeating patterns that
2:28
might be running your
2:29
SPEAKER_00: life.
2:30
And on Friday,
2:30
we're going to look at how you can design your life more
2:35
intentionally.
2:37
SPEAKER_00: So let's get on to the next thing.
2:41
SPEAKER_00: So yeah,
2:42
SPEAKER_00: everyone is going to get a copy of my Stop Drifting,
2:45
SPEAKER_00: Start Living on Purpose book,
2:49
SPEAKER_00: which will be available soon.
2:51
And it is really to help you learn how to thrive and stop
2:58
abandoning your authentic self
3:01
and yeah I've applied all of these principles to my own life
3:05
and it's just
3:06
something I really feel passionate about helping other women
3:11
discover what they
3:12
want now not what you wanted you know 20 years ago so yeah that
3:19
will be available
3:20
soon and you'll receive a copy for joining this masterclass and
3:26
just a bit about me
3:27
SPEAKER_00: and
3:29
SPEAKER_00: Why am I giving this masterclass?
3:32
SPEAKER_00: Well, I have been in business for over 30 years.
3:40
I was head of digital marketing and digital strategy for a
3:44
company that helped
3:45
SPEAKER_00: scale globally into 30 countries.
3:48
SPEAKER_00: I then started my own company and
3:53
and was Richard Branson's startup of the year,
3:56
won lots of different awards.
3:59
I'm one of the BIMA 100,
4:01
so that's one of the top people in digital in the UK.
4:04
SPEAKER_00: I've got a master's in digital marketing.
4:07
I have got the Diamond Lovable certificate for being one of the
4:15
builders on the
4:16
SPEAKER_00: Lovable platform,
4:17
SPEAKER_00: which is an AI vibe coding platform.
4:20
SPEAKER_00: and I have been through all of the things which I'd say burnout,
4:26
SPEAKER_00: late ADHD diagnosis combined with like menopause,
4:32
SPEAKER_00: failures and restarting again and I want to help people
4:37
Learn how to create businesses that are fulfilling and to live
4:42
their life in
4:43
balance and alignment really is what I mean by that so that's
4:48
why I'm running these
4:50
masterclass sessions and kind of just a bit more about me some
4:57
of the things that I
4:58
SPEAKER_00: love to do are to give
5:00
SPEAKER_00: Workshops on the future of work, responsible AI and holistic balance.
5:06
SPEAKER_00: Again, kind of the theme here.
5:09
SPEAKER_00: I'm an AI and life coach.
5:13
SPEAKER_00: I believe in sustainable success without burnout.
5:17
SPEAKER_00: And that's really what I teach.
5:20
SPEAKER_00: I also teach AI coaching and I mentor in a number of programs.
5:27
SPEAKER_00: where I feel I can really add value to the next generation.
5:34
How I think and work is really around creating these calm
5:38
systems,
5:38
not busy systems.
5:41
SPEAKER_00: And I mentioned earlier about technology supporting humanity.
5:44
So really solving real problems and not creating unnecessary
5:49
complexity and just a
5:51
SPEAKER_00: bunch of noise.
5:53
SPEAKER_00: And when we're using AI, we really need to be able to
5:57
Make sure that we are using it responsibly and ethically and
6:05
building systems that
6:07
are good for other people as well as for ourselves and using it
6:12
responsibly.
6:14
And my system that I built using AI is called Balance OS,
6:18
the operating system.
6:20
And that really combines everything I've been learning,
6:23
applying to myself and teaching
6:28
to help people develop an understanding of the patterns that
6:33
have been running
6:33
SPEAKER_00: their lives and really reflect and take action,
6:39
SPEAKER_00: set their vision and goals,
6:41
SPEAKER_00: a lot of which we're going to be covering this week.
6:47
SPEAKER_00: So, yeah, I just mentioned I've got two services.
6:51
SPEAKER_00: One is Balance, which is the operating system, which is...
6:57
the platform that I enable my clients to access and then the
7:03
one-to-one coaching
7:05
where I do AI and life coaching around the balance methodology
7:09
that I've been
7:11
developing and using on myself so that's me and my daughter
7:18
doing some Snapchat
7:20
SPEAKER_00: filters at some point I'm due to be a grandmother at any moment so
7:26
I'm super excited about that and yeah my daughter and I founded
7:31
the startup that
7:31
was Richard Branson's startup of the year so yeah this is kind
7:36
of really important
7:37
to me to kind of help other women and I am going to be having a
7:42
granddaughter so
7:43
I'm really keen to be campaigning for ethical AI and safe AI
7:51
which as you learn
7:53
SPEAKER_00: more about me you'll discover
7:56
This is my Substack website and actually if we do go on to work
8:06
with each other in
8:07
the future I'll be talking a lot about Substack I've just
8:11
started using it as my
8:13
publishing platform and it is literally amazing you can do so
8:21
much with it and yeah
8:23
SPEAKER_00: it's a really
8:24
to put your voice out there and to do it in a simple way and
8:29
going back to the sort
8:30
SPEAKER_00: of core way that I think everything is going.
8:34
It's not about,
8:37
for me anyway,
8:38
it's not about doing some entertainment on TikTok.
8:43
It's about really deeply connecting with my audience and
8:48
building content that
8:49
SPEAKER_00: really helps them and
8:52
Substack really enables me to do that I'll be creating and
8:56
hosting a lot of content
8:59
here on my daily reset which is my daily podcast that you have
9:07
access to during
9:08
SPEAKER_00: this program I'll be putting up this masterclass as well
9:14
and yeah it's just really a place that I'll be sharing how
9:19
things that I think that
9:20
are really valuable and coming back to you know where we are I
9:25
think in life at the
9:26
minute where we where a lot of us have ended up drifting and
9:32
and looking for kind
9:33
of ways that we can reset our lives to what to what I say is to
9:38
come back to our
9:38
SPEAKER_00: own selves and and
9:41
the human operating system is really how I'm kind of
9:44
implementing them human design
9:47
into everything that I am doing for my business and personal
9:54
life and the second
9:55
half human is all about you know what I'm doing later in life
9:59
so yeah really
10:02
SPEAKER_00: interesting and
10:05
the things that I'm trying to share as much as possible with
10:09
other women so that I
10:11
SPEAKER_00: can help them learn kind of what has helped me basically.
10:18
SPEAKER_00: So just going back to why we're all here,
10:21
I think what we have to acknowledge now is that the problem
10:29
really isn't us.
10:34
I think we're basically living in ways that no longer work and
10:39
I'll come back to
10:40
this concept of drift in a minute but there is so much
10:44
notifications constant
10:46
information pressure to perform keep up have it all figured out
10:51
and this whole
10:54
experience what I'm designing is about taking all of that back
10:59
and being aware and
11:02
SPEAKER_00: intentional of how we live
11:04
SPEAKER_00: with how we live.
11:07
SPEAKER_00: So this is really a place for you to reflect.
11:12
We'll be looking at patterns that have got buried beneath our
11:15
busy schedules and
11:16
SPEAKER_00: competing priorities.
11:18
We'll do some practical exercises and we're really just going
11:22
to get curious and
11:25
bring some awareness into our days and that's really where we
11:30
can start to have
11:31
SPEAKER_00: some meaningful change.
11:35
And what I really hope you to get at the end of this experience
11:39
is an understanding
11:42
SPEAKER_00: of what those kind of patterns are.
11:46
SPEAKER_00: Your human design profile,
11:48
SPEAKER_00: which if you have signed up and given me your details,
11:52
SPEAKER_00: you will receive a copy of.
11:56
SPEAKER_00: And how you're naturally wired.
11:58
SPEAKER_00: And that really has helped me in my business and in my life to understand
12:05
how to work and live better and also what we're going to do is
12:10
kind of understand
12:11
how to use AI and things like Substack kind of go into a bit
12:18
more detail on that and
12:21
to just help you get that kind of idea of where you might want
12:26
to focus your
12:30
work in the future and then a bit more clarity like I mentioned
12:35
of what's working
12:37
what's not long no longer working and yeah just confidence in
12:41
the in the changes
12:42
that you need to make and what intentional living could look
12:47
like for you and I've
12:49
SPEAKER_00: got a couple of mentors I'm in a number of programs at the moment and
12:55
one of my mentors really specifically focuses on what's your
12:58
now goal you know kind
12:59
of and by the end of that this master class I hope that you'll
13:04
leave with a renewed
13:07
SPEAKER_00: sense of direction of what your next now goal could be and so you'll get
13:16
SPEAKER_00: All the sessions, recordings, the daily reset.
13:21
SPEAKER_00: We're going to do the balance reset today.
13:24
SPEAKER_00: And if you haven't done it live,
13:27
you can do that and have a look at your archetype and your
13:32
personalized insights.
13:35
SPEAKER_00: We'll also be looking at your human design profile.
13:37
SPEAKER_00: There'll be some worksheets, guided exercise.
13:40
SPEAKER_00: Today we're going to do a future self letter.
13:44
and you'll get a copy of my Stop Drifting Start Living on
13:49
Purpose book when that is
13:51
SPEAKER_00: available and that's coming very soon.
13:55
So I'm going back to really I guess the most dangerous place to
14:02
be in life for me I
14:04
SPEAKER_00: think this concept of just being fine and
14:09
SPEAKER_00: Fine is not good.
14:11
SPEAKER_00: Fine is a way of masking and hiding how you truly feel.
14:15
SPEAKER_00: And actually,
14:16
SPEAKER_00: the more that you say you're fine,
14:18
the more that you're hiding really your true feelings about
14:23
life and everything
14:24
SPEAKER_00: becomes fine.
14:25
SPEAKER_00: Your relationships, your job, things that are not working, you tolerate.
14:30
SPEAKER_00: And this is really where I call this drift.
14:34
SPEAKER_00: And this is kind of where we want to move away from.
14:38
SPEAKER_00: So this is where I was previously,
14:43
SPEAKER_00: chaos,
14:44
SPEAKER_00: burnout,
14:44
SPEAKER_00: stress,
14:45
SPEAKER_00: and many of you will potentially resonate with us,
14:49
SPEAKER_00: but spinning lots of plates,
14:51
SPEAKER_00: just constant noise,
14:53
SPEAKER_00: constant distraction,
14:55
SPEAKER_00: overthinking,
14:57
SPEAKER_00: lots of tension in my body.
15:01
SPEAKER_00: I was functioning, but I was not surviving.
15:05
SPEAKER_00: I was not thriving rather.
15:07
um and yeah just really trying to keep everything together um
15:13
and what I then kind
15:15
of decided to do was to have a complete rethink um of how I was
15:20
living I started
15:21
going really deep into psychology neuroscience habit science
15:26
human design and um I
15:29
SPEAKER_00: realized a kind of few fundamental things during this process is that
15:34
SPEAKER_00: If you keep ignoring things, your body is storing them up.
15:37
You start making yourself physically ill and that being
15:44
positive isn't pretending,
15:46
SPEAKER_00: it's choosing.
15:49
We get to decide what we focus on and we can focus on what's
15:53
not working or we can
15:54
SPEAKER_00: really decide to focus on making changes to make things better.
16:02
SPEAKER_00: Joy is not a mood and this for me is a big thing.
16:07
SPEAKER_00: It's a strategy.
16:08
So if you look after your joy levels in your life,
16:15
things will start naturally coming to you.
16:19
The more that you can do things that make you happy really does
16:24
start transforming your life.
16:26
and it's all about small daily habits and it just makes massive
16:32
compounding return
16:33
returns it's not about changing everything in such a major day
16:37
it's about start
16:38
making these little changes so you're living on purpose not on
16:42
autopilot and it's
16:44
all about starting with you so what we are going to do um today
16:50
is I'm just going
16:51
SPEAKER_00: to run you through um
16:53
one of my frameworks which is moving from life drift to life
16:57
alignment and then
16:59
we're going to do the balance reset so this is where a lot of
17:05
people like myself
17:07
were starting out where you're basically stuck you're busy but
17:13
you're not fulfilled
17:13
and your days are all sort of blurring together and you just
17:17
have that sense that
17:18
SPEAKER_00: something needs to change and
17:23
SPEAKER_00: What the reset does,
17:25
SPEAKER_00: if you kind of take a pause and take an honest look at where you are,
17:29
SPEAKER_00: you can really find out a bit more about what's working and what isn't.
17:34
So this is just taking a moment to pause and reflect and see
17:42
kind of actually what is going on.
17:44
SPEAKER_00: And the balance reset is a good starting point there.
17:47
SPEAKER_00: Then we get into life design.
17:50
SPEAKER_00: So really
17:52
SPEAKER_00: Clarifying what are your values,
17:55
SPEAKER_00: what are your visions,
17:56
what's an ideal day and creating that blueprint that reflects
18:01
who you are and so
18:02
SPEAKER_00: just really clarifying and
18:04
SPEAKER_00: in an ideal world, what would your day look like?
18:08
We're going to do a bit of work on that during this masterclass
18:13
and then designing
18:14
SPEAKER_00: the systems that kind of bring that clarity and structure.
18:18
SPEAKER_00: So that's partly what Balance OS, the planning tool, helps you do.
18:25
SPEAKER_00: And then really,
18:26
really getting to the point where your life is no longer
18:29
reactive and that your
18:31
SPEAKER_00: decisions and your time and energy are invested intentionally.
18:35
SPEAKER_00: And that's really living your values every day.
18:39
SPEAKER_00: It's pursuing meaningful goals.
18:42
SPEAKER_00: It's protecting your energy and making intentional decisions.
18:46
SPEAKER_00: So that's the framework behind balance.
18:51
SPEAKER_00: So what I'm going to get you to do is to take the reset.
18:57
SPEAKER_00: Let me just show you where that is.
18:59
If you go to balance.ai.reset,
19:05
you will be able to run a report on yourself to figure out
19:12
SPEAKER_00: and where you are on the Explorer to Architect.
19:17
And you'll also get a flow score,
19:18
which we'll be looking at in more detail next week.
19:22
SPEAKER_00: So I'm going to let you go away and do that.
19:27
SPEAKER_00: And then we'll come back in a few minutes.
19:33
and next week we'll also be looking at your human design
19:36
profile so if you've not
19:37
already done that go through your emails and check your spam
19:42
but you will have
19:43
received an email from laurel at balanceos.com to give me some
19:51
information on your
19:57
SPEAKER_00: location of birth,
19:58
SPEAKER_00: time of birth and
20:02
SPEAKER_00: date of birth and we can combine the two together next week.
20:07
SPEAKER_00: So I'll leave you for a couple of minutes.
20:46
SPEAKER_00: Okay, so just a quick snapshot of balance.
20:55
In balance,
20:56
we have a number of different ways that we look at your
21:03
alignment.
21:04
SPEAKER_00: So we look at mind, body, relationships and purpose.
21:07
SPEAKER_00: And then we have different frameworks for looking at that.
21:10
SPEAKER_00: There's various challenges as well.
21:13
and once you get your archetype you will see that you will have
21:17
been suggested to
21:18
do to start by doing one of the challenges on the pillar that
21:24
is not as strong for
21:26
you so I'd recommend kind of starting with one challenge and we
21:35
can kind of discuss
21:36
SPEAKER_00: how this works later on in the week but
21:39
SPEAKER_00: Really focusing in on how you could look at that one pillar first.
21:43
SPEAKER_00: Each pillar supports the others.
21:45
SPEAKER_00: So if you are,
21:47
SPEAKER_00: for example,
21:49
SPEAKER_00: struggling with your mental health,
21:53
SPEAKER_00: that's going to affect how you show up in your relationships.
21:55
SPEAKER_00: It's going to affect your purpose.
21:58
SPEAKER_00: If you're struggling with your body,
22:00
SPEAKER_00: for example,
22:01
SPEAKER_00: that might be showing up in how your mood works.
22:08
SPEAKER_00: and potentially also your relationships.
22:12
SPEAKER_00: If you are struggling with relationships,
22:16
SPEAKER_00: you might also be struggling just generally with,
22:21
SPEAKER_00: you know,
22:21
SPEAKER_00: a lack of joy or a lack of purpose.
22:24
SPEAKER_00: They're all interconnected.
22:25
So balance really looks at all of the pillars and brings all
22:29
together with these
22:31
SPEAKER_00: sort of awareness challenges to set you off on the right path.
22:36
SPEAKER_00: Yeah,
22:36
and it's all about reducing overwhelm and developing consistent
22:41
habits and creating
22:42
SPEAKER_00: sustainable routines across your mind body relationships and purpose.
22:47
SPEAKER_00: And yeah, just to kind of the AI aspect of what balance does is
22:54
SPEAKER_00: People are using chatbots just to kind of think better.
22:59
But with balance,
23:00
it has a purpose built in system for clarity,
23:04
habits and human wellbeing.
23:05
SPEAKER_00: So kind of coming back to that sort of ethical AI,
23:09
SPEAKER_00: it kind of has a framework in there to guide you,
23:14
SPEAKER_00: which people are finding really valuable.
23:20
What we are going to do now this is our next exercise of the
23:25
day and if you're
23:28
joining on the replays you might want to pause this section
23:35
because I'm going to
23:37
join up the video at the end so we don't have a big gap but
23:42
what I want you to do
23:44
SPEAKER_00: now is to
23:47
SPEAKER_00: Take five minutes,
23:48
SPEAKER_00: and you can come back to this later,
23:52
SPEAKER_00: five or ten minutes,
23:53
to rewrite your story and just thinking about imagining you're
24:01
writing a letter to
24:02
SPEAKER_00: yourself ten years from now,
24:03
SPEAKER_00: what would you like to tell your future self?
24:08
So describe your life,
24:09
your achievements,
24:10
how you feel,
24:11
the person you become,
24:13
um it's got to be a really heartfelt message from your present
24:17
self to your future
24:18
filled with love dreams encouragement and a deep understanding
24:22
of who you are I
24:24
should say there um so yeah take your time like I said you can
24:31
come back to this
24:31
later but I really want you to start thinking about what would
24:35
be your life um how
24:37
SPEAKER_00: do you feel who are you and um
24:42
really kind of envisaging what your life could be if you
24:47
perhaps didn't have the
24:49
current limiting circumstances and limiting beliefs that you
24:54
you have now so I'll
24:56
SPEAKER_00: leave you to to that
25:23
SPEAKER_00: Hey, welcome back, everyone.
25:24
SPEAKER_00: How was that?
25:27
SPEAKER_00: So this is a journey, not a destination.
25:32
SPEAKER_00: And anything worth having takes focus.
25:35
And that's really what we're going to be talking a lot about
25:39
over the next five days.
25:42
SPEAKER_00: Really developing your focus on the now goal,
25:47
SPEAKER_00: developing a focus towards where you want to be,
25:51
SPEAKER_00: not where you are.
25:54
SPEAKER_00: and taking those now moves.
25:56
SPEAKER_00: So those next right now moves, what you're planning to do.
26:02
SPEAKER_00: One of the things that I really think about is if you have clarity,
26:07
you can then make progress and get into a flow towards your
26:11
goals instead of just
26:13
SPEAKER_00: drifting through your life.
26:14
And that's really what I want us to try to start thinking about
26:18
over the course of
26:19
SPEAKER_00: the next few days.
26:22
and really that is what balance is all about letting your days
26:26
reflect your purpose
26:27
not your distractions so I am going to leave us there for now
26:37
and yeah I am going
26:40
SPEAKER_00: to stop sharing and
26:47
and we'll stop the recording and I'll see you on day one of the
26:52
masterclass.
26:55
SPEAKER_00: Bye everyone.
26:55
SPEAKER_00: Have a great weekend.
