• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Are you running your life or is your life running you?

  Speaker 1: I'll help you create real wealth, success and freedom from the inside out.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Welcome to the Inner Wealth Podcast, where we learn and choose to live inspired each and every day.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: It's pretty cliche to find your why.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: It's pretty cliche, pretty accepted, pretty commonplace for any coach, teacher, author, influencer to talk about finding your why or finding your purpose.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: And today I want to turn that.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: I'm definitely I'm going to reinforce the find your purpose, but I'm going to redefine what find your purpose means.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: I'm going to redefine what find your purpose means.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: I'm going to redefine what find your why means.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: We've talked about purpose on this podcast before, but I'm going to add another little extra layer of flavor and flair to it.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: So, if you really want to feel fulfilled in this world now, I was sitting with somebody yesterday, with a client, a Mastermind, student and I said listen, I'm going to throw out three words wealth, success and happiness.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: I also think of fulfillment, because to me, fulfillment and happiness are hand in hand.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: It means you're fulfilled with life.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: It means it means you're you're kind of like, you're kind of satisfied with with where you are and you're reaching, you're always open to new levels of everything you know.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: And just so often people think that when we become fulfilled or satisfied or happy, that we'll become complacent and we won't be open to new things and we won't strive and we won't achieve and we won't accomplish.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: And I just that's just not true.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: It's not true.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: And that's what keeps everyone you know most grind gurus and hustle whores.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: It's what keeps people in a a massive state of of, I don't know, just strugglicious activity and stress and always staying busy and always staying distracted.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: To me that doesn't feel like a very fulfilling life.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: But maybe I'm wrong, maybe there's somebody that is.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: But when I talk about outcomes and the magic of life, I'm talking about achieving wealth, success and happiness.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: So let's reframe that in wealth, success and fulfillment.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Now, I do completely believe that you can achieve wealth and success without being fulfilled and happy.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I've met and I well, I work with many of them.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: I work with a lot of folks that are wealthy and successful, but there's still something missing inside of them.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: There's a space, a spaciousness.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: There's an emptiness, there's a void.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: There's something missing.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: They're wealthy, they're successful, they've had massive impact in this world.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: They own massive rental portfolios.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: They own three, four, five businesses.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: They have the marriage of their dreams.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: They're healthy maybe sometimes not always, but they're healthy.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: They have children.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: But there's still something missing and they can't figure out what it is.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Maybe you know one or two or a thousand of those people as well.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I know many, many people that fit that exact description.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: In fact, those are my favorite clients.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Now I'm going to go on the opposite end of the spectrum.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I also have worked with in the past.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: In the past, I also have worked with and been on phone calls and been on discovery calls and been on prospect calls and had people that wanted a lot of my time and people that that were trying to uh, we're trying to get value that did get value out of me that, at the end of the day, they didn't have the money to pay for my service.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: They didn't have the money to pay for my courses.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: They didn't have the money to pay for workshops.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: They didn't have money to pay for mastermind or private coaching.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: They didn't even have.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: In a lot of cases they didn't even have money to pay their rent.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: They didn't even have.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: In a lot of cases they didn't even have money to pay their rent, but they were really, really they felt happy and fulfilled in their life.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Now, I know to many, many people that doesn't sound possible, but I like to call these people and I don't think I coined it but I like to call these people the woke and broke.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: They're very, very woke.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: They're spiritually in tuned with their mind and their emotions.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: They're spiritually centered and grounded.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: They usually have a big smile on their face, they're satisfied and content in life and they are broke as fuck.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Now, I've worked with both people or people on both ends of that spectrum people that had wealth and success, that were unfulfilled and unhappy, and people that were happy and fulfilled because they were on the spiritual journey, but they were broke as a joke and they weren't doing anything in the world.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: They were, they were spending their lives being just being spiritual and being grounded, and they it almost appears like sometimes when you, when you talk to one of these folks, it appears they're in la-la land and I know they've got their head in the clouds and I know where they are, I know what they're doing, I know why they're being that and you'll hear them say I'm called to dot, dot, dot.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Right, they're very spiritual and sometimes it's a spiritual mask and sometimes're practicing like spiritual bypass, where they're pretending that the lack of wealth and success doesn't matter to them, but they are fulfilled in some sense of the way because they feel an interconnectedness to their spirit and that's wonderful.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: That's wonderful.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: But I call that woke and broke Now and I'm going to caveat that and say when you're woke and broke, it means you're not really woke, and hopefully this podcast episode will help those people or maybe you, or maybe it'll help you see both ends of the spectrum and to see where the missing piece is.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Now, how does this fit in with purpose?
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: When you hear find your purpose.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: I don't think people have a purpose.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: I really don't.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: I used to.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I used to think that you had one defined purpose in your life and you were born with a mission.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: You were born with inherent talents and desires and you were born with a dream inside of you that wanted to be born and wanted to be materialized.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: I used to believe this to be true, but I don't anymore.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: I think there's two purposes and that's what we're going to talk about in this episode.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: I believe that we are born with two purposes.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Now I am I'm sure if you've listened to this for any period of time I'm woo-woo as fuck.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I am a spiritual teacher living in a material world, and I do teach, I do work with those people with wealth and success and help bring them on the spiritual journey, because that's where they're going to find their fulfillment.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: And I do subscribe to the mystical and I do subscribe to everything.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Is God what you can see and what you can't see?
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: And I do believe that we are God, we are part of God, and I do believe that God can't see.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: And I do believe that we are God, we are part of God, and I do believe that God is within us and I do believe that the universe is one living, breathing organism and we are just part of it and we are one sliver of consciousness in the unified consciousness and we are just God, playing like human characters.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: And when you change your character, you change your essence.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: And when you change your character, you change your essence.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: And when you change your character, you change how you experience the world.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: I do believe this and I do see this and I do understand and I do see that when you change your beliefs, your reality changes.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: So there is no single reality.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Reality you see is the, is the, is it from the perspective and the lens of the beliefs and the expectations and the thoughts and the feelings and the emotions and the attachments and the aversions that are buried inside of you.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: And this is creating your reality.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: And what the reality you see is much different than the reality that somebody else sees, and I'm not going to hide from that fact, and sometimes I post this on Facebook.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: If you're not connected with me on Facebook, please connect with me, follow me.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: I do some daily musings on there, but when I post something like that, I get I don't know, I get whipped by the religious community, the dogmatic religious community that subscribes to the same thing that they were taught to subscribe to, that was passed down from generation to generation.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: And when you start to see things differently and you start to share your beliefs, which are in conflict with somebody else, they typically don't like it very much and they typically attack in some way, shape or form and try to bring you around to their way of thinking and feeling and acting and believing and behaving, because what if they're wrong?
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: And it exposes, what if I'm wrong?
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: And they don't like that.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Now, since I believe we're born into we are God, the essence of God, born into a meat suit with a supercomputer attached to our neck, I believe that when we were born, we were born with two missions, two purposes, two reasons for being, and the people that are wealthy and successful they've achieved, People that are wealthy and successful, they've achieved and they are fulfilled and they are happy and they could go sit on a, you know, on a, be living in a stupa or live in a.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: You know, and I could, I certainly could, but I wouldn't be, I wouldn't be like living out my, my other mission, my other purpose, but you know where, where they're, they're happy, being happy, and they're, they've like, kind of pushed away the material world, they're not worried about and they're not focused on wealth and success, and that's why they struggle to live.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Actually, to live on the earth is because they can't pay their bills and they're not functioning in the world and on the earth, the material plane, they are in their spiritual essence and in their spiritual purpose, but they don't have their feet on the ground, and that's why it's so hard for them to live in a human existence, if that makes sense.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: They're living in heaven, but right now, for the 80, 90 years that we're alive, we're actually on the earth and we survive through having money in order to pay the bills and in order to eat, in order to live, in order to survive and in order to thrive.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: But sometimes people are so rooted in their spiritual purpose that they almost reject their material purpose.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: And this is what I'm saying.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: I believe and I see that there are two purposes that we are here to carry out during the course of our lifetime, and sometimes people neglect one of those purposes in lieu of the other one, and I do believe that we're here to put both of them together.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: One of these purposes is your physical purpose.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: It's your material purpose.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: It's what are you here to achieve and accomplish?
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: There's a dream inside of you, you have talents, you have desires, you have a dream, you have aspirations, you have a hunger inside of you, you have the desire to build something, to accomplish something, to accumulate something, to achieve something in some way, shape or form and there's 8 billion people on the planet and only 8 billion people have this thing inside of them looking to materialize.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Whatever it is for you, it's individual.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: It's an individual aspiration.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: Each person is born with a unique purpose, a unique vision, a unique yearning to create.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Whatever it is that you intended to create when you put on this human meat suit, intended to create, when you put on this human meat suit and when you look at somebody who is wealthy and successful, oftentimes they've materialized their physical purpose and that's why they're wealthy and successful.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Because they got in their zone, they understood their purpose, they understood their role in the world.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: They put themselves on the path.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: They hit the gas.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: They were inspired.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: In their physical purpose, in their material purpose, they hit the gas.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: They had innate talent that allowed them to achieve that and accomplish that.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: They had innate desire that allowed them to achieve that and accomplish that.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: And when they aligned that desire, talent and the purpose and the end action and appropriate action, they created wealth and success, because that was always their birthright.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: When they got on their physical and material purpose, when they got in that zone, when they got in that zone and they hit the gas, they were unstoppable and they created wealth and success.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: That's part of our material purpose, that is a natural byproduct of carrying out our material purpose.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: But there's this other purpose that, if you look at, you know we talked about the woke and broke a little bit.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Talked about the woke and broke a little bit, but if you really look at society, most people are not carrying out their other purpose and that's their spiritual purpose.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: And what I mean when I say spiritual purpose is not religious, it's understanding the darkness that's inside of each of us and it's unique, understanding what's happening in our minds and in our bodies.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: That's dark, that's our shadows, are self-doubt and shame and guilt and self-rejection and fear of judgment and fear of abandonment and some of the deepest fears that human beings have the fear to express yourself.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: When you're a creative, when you are a creative and you're given the purpose of carrying out creativity in the world and artistic nature, there's two aspects to that.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: First of all, it's clearing out the fear of actually creating your art, of speaking your voice, of singing your song, of writing your book.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: It's clearing out that fear and facing that fear and clearing it out and creating.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: And sometimes, when somebody is a creative, all they're doing is creating, but they allow and they continue to live in the fear as if it's real, instead of working through it and working beyond it.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: And this is why, when they get in their zone their physical and their material zone and they create and they achieve and they accomplish and they become world renowned, but they haven't done this spiritual work, they haven't carried out their spiritual purpose, which is clearing out the internal clutter that's happening inside of them.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Then when they are world's happening inside of them, then when they are world-renowned and everybody knows them, they still feel like a reject, they still feel invisible, they still feel not valuable, not worthy, they still feel like a fraud.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: And they've carried out work in their material and their physical purpose, but they haven't done the spiritual purpose work and their physical purpose.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: But they haven't done the spiritual purpose work, which is to clean out the garbage and the clutter that is creating that internal conflict, the insecurity, the inadequacy and insignificance.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: And this explains why some people are wealthy and successful and unfulfilled and miserable and some people have no money and have created nothing in the world but are fulfilled and satisfied.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Some people just jump right into their spiritual purpose and start doing internal work and never do any real work in the world and this is why they struggle to pay their rent and pay their mortgage.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Nothing wrong with those folks.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: They're living half of their purpose, just like the people that are achieving wealth and success are only achieving only doing half of their purpose.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: And what happens?
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: And I love working with the wealthy and successful people who are unfulfilled because, well, first of all, I run a business and they can pay me, but, second of all, when, when they're wealthy and successful?
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Now we have time, now we have space.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Now we can create a space in their life so that we can carry out and find and identify the spiritual purpose that they're here to achieve and accomplish the healing, the internal healing, the internal letting go of the stories, the internal reconditioning and the reprogramming of the stories and the beliefs and the perspectives that's inside.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: And we can do that because they have the financial means and the financial wherewithal to be able to create space in their life in order to carry out, to identify and carry out their spiritual work.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: And I can help them identify their spiritual purpose and listen to their stories and listen to their beliefs so we can start the process of reframing it.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: And oftentimes, when they're willing to do the work.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: I take someone who's really wealthy, who's really successful, who's unhappy and unfulfilled, and I make them not just a millionaire but a happy millionaire, a fulfilled millionaire, a fulfilled multimillionaire.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: They've created the millions.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: I help them create the fulfillment and happiness and that's my zone of genius.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: But when you have someone who's only carrying out their spiritual purpose, oftentimes if they haven't cleared out the internal conflict, if they have cleared out the internal conflict but they haven't jumped into achieving, accomplishing, accumulating in terms of or in corroboration, in alignment with their physical, their material purpose, then it's up to them to make the jump.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: But they've got no financial means for support or for a tribe or a community and that's a tougher pill to crack.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: But since they've cleaned out the inner conflict and since they're living in a state of bliss, oftentimes they just have to get over their money stories and jump onto the money train and create some wealth and success in this world.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Both of these, I guess, extremes, and most people are somewhere in the middle where maybe you haven't found your physical and material purpose, maybe you haven't found your spiritual purpose, but you know you're missing something.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: I would encourage you to identify and look for both your internal purpose and your external purpose, your physical and material purpose and your spiritual purpose, because if you don't find one or the other, you're going to be, you're still going to feel incomplete, you're still going to feel like there's something missing when you've achieved one or the other.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: And it's up to us to achieve both Now, as part of this woo-woo thing and this mystical thing and this spiritual thing and this esoteric teachings that I love and I adore and I trust and I've studied.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: There are different applications, like human design, like the gene keys, like soul contracts, like the life you were born to live, by Dan Millman, like the pattern.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: It's an app on Apple not Apple, but on your.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: I have an Apple iPhone, but the pattern is an app on your phone that you can download, that you can get connected with.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: These are aspects of what I've been taught and what I teach as the soul sciences.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: It's your soul was born with missions spiritual purpose, material purpose and it's up to you to find both of those and to jump on both of those paths so that you can harmonize them, so that you can feel real wealth, success and happiness.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: If you'd love connections to any of those, please reach out.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Connect through this podcast, my ops assistant, carol, we can help you get connected with human design.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: We also have a Soul Sciences call inside of the inner wealth mastermind where we study human design.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: We study gene keys, we study the pattern, we study the life you were born to live.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: We haven't started studying soul science or soul contracts yet, but we will.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: But these are all mechanisms that will help you connect your internal and your external purpose.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Look for both of them.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: Separate them.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Just because you're doing one doesn't mean you're doing the other.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Just because you're doing well, most people are doing neither to any magnificent degree.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: But I would say, when you find your internal and external purpose, you start the work required for that purpose, you harmonize them.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: You'll live a life that you could have never imagined.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: And I can see and feel this every single day because my internal purpose in the world is to overcome inadequacy and insecurity.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: I wrote a book called the Imposter in Charge and insecurity.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: I wrote a book called the Imposter in Charge.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: It's to overcome inadequacy, overcome insecurity, to start to reestablish my own self-worth, reestablish my own self-value and create in this world and speak my voice and teach, and teach what I'm learning and I'm doing it more and more every day, and these have all come from understanding what my spiritual purpose is and my material and my physical purpose.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Hope this helps guys.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Thanks for letting me jam.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: I am a spiritual teacher in essence and that's why we've partnered.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: My wife, angie, and I have partnered with Justin Dassey and Cara Dassey in our business, because Justin has that business mind.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: He's built multiple seven-figure businesses and he's helping us build InterWealth Global as well.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I have more of a spiritual bent, he has more of a physical bent.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: I help him with the spiritual, he helps me with the physical and we just jam together.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: It's a lot of fun.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Get on the path, identify both.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: If you don't identify both, something's always going to be missing and you don't deserve that.
