- 0:28and prepare to be coached. Hey, guys, doctor Kellys is Unpause your
- 0:35Life and the Addictions Coach. Thank you for joining me on my podcast.
- 0:39I know we've had this podcast for a few years and I love coming on
- 0:43and giving you guys tips and tricks and talking about some cool stuff. Today,
- 0:48I want to talk about something unique and interesting and a different take on
- 0:53something. So you know, I'm always talking about manifestation and abundance and manifesting
- 0:59you know what you want and creating a life you desire. And we talk
- 1:02about money a lot. But a friend of mine mentioned something the other day.
- 1:07It was kind of interesting and it sparked my brain to think about a
- 1:11few things. And what he said was you have to worry more about time
- 1:17than money. Basically, so he said time is more important than money,
- 1:21meaning experiences are more important than money, and time is really short, so
- 1:26if you're always focusing on making money, you're losing time, which is true
- 1:32to a sense. But the problem with that is we talk about automation.
- 1:36Can I automate my job? Can I do something from travel wherever I am?
- 1:40I can? I knew at age fourteen I wanted to travel and work
- 1:45from anywhere. And that's back before cell phones and laptops. I didn't know
- 1:49how I was going to do it, but I knew I wanted to do
- 1:52that. So I created a company where I can do coaching and counseling from
- 1:59anywhere. Obviously, you know, zoom, what have you. But that's
- 2:02not enough. I need to make money while I sleep, right so I
- 2:06can travel and do fun things while money's coming in. So I created AI
- 2:12School, the Addictions Academy, where we offer classes for people to learn different
- 2:16things. Right now, we have forty classes on there. We're in thirty
- 2:21different countries, so people can go on take a self studied video course we
- 2:24created, get a certification, and go out and make money and help people.
- 2:30That I thought was really cool. Because I'm only one person, I
- 2:32can only help so many people in you know, in a day or a
- 2:36week or a month or year, why not train other people to help other
- 2:39people. So that's amazing. So that's making money while you sleep. So
- 2:44you all know, in the Unpausure Life brand, we have a certification coming
- 2:49out for life coaching. It's like nothing on the market. It is pretty
- 2:53in depths, got mental health, and it's got some addiction in it.
- 2:58It's got coaching. It's got a relationship coach course and a performance coaching course
- 3:01in there. So all those things are there to help other people make money
- 3:07too. So going back to time versus money, it's pretty interesting. So
- 3:14my friend that I'm telling you about makes joy and he makes beautiful Joey.
- 3:20And he showed me this piece of his Auntie mask that's in the shape of
- 3:23Coda from Why and I loved it. It's amazing, it's beautiful. Now
- 3:28I have options, Right, I can ask him to give it to me
- 3:31for free, which isn't really fair because it's one side of exchange. Or
- 3:37I can pay him for that, which is money, which is currency.
- 3:42Currency is also energy. Right, money is energy. Currency is energy.
- 3:49Money is called currency. Follow that, so money is an energetic exchange.
- 3:57Or I could do what we did. We borrow, we traded item for
- 4:00item. So I had a pair of Apple earbuds that I bought. Can't
- 4:06use mix. My head hurt. I'm old school. I have to have
- 4:10the phone with the cord attached to the ear pieces. So we tradeed.
- 4:16We use the currency of barter instead of money, so we traded item for
- 4:21item. Everybody was happy, nobody complained. No actual money changed hands,
- 4:30but item for item was still an exchange of currency or energy. So what
- 4:35I'm dealing with people who look at money as not necessary or money is the
- 4:43root of all evil. Our money is too much focused on that and not
- 4:49enough on time and experiences. I tell people to flip their mindset. Money
- 4:57is nothing more than an energetic exchange of goods and services. That's all it
- 5:02is. It's currency. It's time, but it's currency. You could do
- 5:09the same thing with offering your time for a hard good or barter. Looking
- 5:15at money as a conduit and not the endgame is how you have to look
- 5:20at something. Because money, currency, as we like to say, allows
- 5:28you freedom. Freedom is the ultimate endgame because freedom gives you time. So
- 5:34think about that for a second. If you go to work somewhere, your
- 5:40time is limited in your free time. Your freedom is limited because you work
- 5:46for someone else. In my career of working for people, I have worked
- 5:53my entire adult career for a total of two years for an employer. I
- 6:00don't have the mentality to be locked down like that. I don't have this
- 6:04spirit to be locked down like that, and I don't play well in the
- 6:08sandbox. So I've always worked for myself. I've always had a business.
- 6:12This is my sixth business. I've always done something for myself. Some were
- 6:17lucrative, some were not lucrative. But freedom, free time was more important
- 6:24to me my whole life than money until I learned how to leverage currency.
- 6:31So that's what I want to talk to you about. Leveraging currency allows you
- 6:36more free time, free time and freedom. So where does that come from?
- 6:42That comes from automation? And I know people talk about this and people
- 6:46say, well, you know, it's a lot of work. I don't
- 6:49know what to do. How do I do it? You have to come
- 6:54up with something that makes you money while you're not actively engaged in that activity
- 7:00of making money. So people talk about real estate. Right, you buy
- 7:06a house, you rent it out, if the house is paid off,
- 7:09you're actively making passive income once you hit the amount of money you spent.
- 7:13So there's that, there's Airbnb. I have two of those. Does it
- 7:18help? Absolutely? Am I making money while I sleep? Yes? I'm
- 7:23running out a section of my mother in law suit while I live in the
- 7:26big house and allowing them to use the pool, in the hot tub and
- 7:30the grounds and come and go on the beach. Absolutely, I'm making money
- 7:34while I sleep. That needs to be your goal instead of thinking money is
- 7:40the root of all evil, or money is bad, or money ruins things,
- 7:46or money causes problems. You have to shift your mindset from money's the
- 7:53problem to money is just a conduit of energy, and currency means electricity.
- 8:01It means energy. That's all it is. Get yourself out of the mindset
- 8:07that money is bad and life isn't all about money. You're right, Life
- 8:11is not all about money. Life is about freedom, free time and experiences.
- 8:16How do you get there if you're not a trust fund baby? How
- 8:20do you get there? If you don't have an unlimited bank account? How
- 8:22do you get there? What is that path look like? And it can
- 8:26be investing in something, It can be playing the stock market, it can
- 8:31be anything, investing in a business investing in yourself. But you can create
- 8:39more freedom and free time if you simply shift how you view the conduit to
- 8:46get there. That's it. The conduit in your brain has to shift.
- 8:52Money is just energy, that's all it is. And it really is energy.
- 8:58And we're taking a living tree and chopping it down and putting ink on
- 9:03paper. That paper is still energy. It's still life force energy, and
- 9:07you're exchanging that for something, a good, a service, something. So
- 9:13when I work with clients on mindset and shifting mindset, I try to figure
- 9:20out what their goal is. What is your goal? What do you want
- 9:24to accomplish? You want more freedom? Okay, great, how do we
- 9:26get there? Well, if you have a nine to five job, and
- 9:31I say nine to five, that can be eleven to seven, two to
- 9:33ten, three to midnight, whatever. If you have a job where you
- 9:37go somewhere for a period of time and you do not set your own schedule,
- 9:43that has to shift immediately. You have to figure out how to shift
- 9:48that. If you can't shift that, you need a side hustle. That
- 9:52simple. You need a side hustle. And when I talk about side hustles,
- 9:56people say, oh, you're taking more of my freedom. I'm away
- 10:00more of my free time. Yes, in the beginning, you are.
- 10:03Unless you have the balls to do what I did, which is quit your
- 10:07job one day with three hundred bucks in your bank account, a rent payment
- 10:11of fifteen hundred, a car payment of four hundred. No, you can't
- 10:15pay either and create a company. You need a side hustle. Not everybody
- 10:20can fly without a safety knit like I can. I've done that. My
- 10:24whole life is something I know is an uncomfortable shore. But I can do
- 10:30it. So if you have that in you and you want to do it,
- 10:35do it. If you think in the back of your head what if
- 10:37I fail? You're not ready for that, So then create that side hustle
- 10:41and it can be anything. You can create a video online and sell it.
- 10:46You can create a how too, You can do pretty much anything.
- 10:50Do some investing. You can offer a cleaning company, clean people's houses,
- 10:54shovel snow. Any of those things brings in additional income, and you set
- 11:00your own schedule. If you're good at that side hustle and you like that
- 11:05side hustle and it nets you some money, which is energy, you can
- 11:11make this shift from full time job to side hustle, and in the beginning,
- 11:16maybe you need to dedicate more freedom and free time to the business.
- 11:20My company's now eleven years old. In the beginning, I put in fifteen
- 11:24sixteen hour days. I built my own website, I made my own business
- 11:26cards, I created my own courses. I taught my own courses. I
- 11:30called my own leads. I did all of that. Eleven years later,
- 11:35I have a full staff. I have a full time staff, and I
- 11:37have a part time staff that go out and service clients. I have a
- 11:41lot more free time and freedom today than I did eleven years ago. But
- 11:46I put that time and energy in to do it. The second piece of
- 11:52this where people get lost in translation, is when you make money, you
- 11:56cannot hoard it. Energy. Energy is flowing, right, you know,
- 12:03energy flows. You touch a tree, you feel energy. You walk barefoot
- 12:05on the grass, You're sucking up all that energy. Right, Those are
- 12:09positive resets you should be doing every day anyway. You should be resetting your
- 12:15energy because there is some energy draining motherfucker's on this planet, and if you
- 12:20come in contact with them, they will deplete you. So barefoot on the
- 12:24grass, hugging a tree very important. Do you ask permission to hug the
- 12:30tree first before you do it. Those are things you can do to reset,
- 12:33reply ish or place, because you cannot pour from an empty cup.
- 12:37Having said that, though, you have to understand the currency. Everything is
- 12:45energy, Everything you touch is energy. Everything is always in motion. So
- 12:50if you hoard your money, if you put it in a bank account and
- 12:54you don't use it, and you don't spread it around, number one,
- 12:58you're gonna be miserable. I see that every time number two, you may
- 13:03have an addiction. I see that you're not using the energy as as as
- 13:09it was intended. So every time I make money, I spread it around.
- 13:13I go out, I have dinner. I tip forty percent fifty percent
- 13:18of the check on purpose. I give homeless people money. Now, granted,
- 13:22if you look like you're doing drugs, I'm not giving you shit because
- 13:24that's my industry. I am not gonna help you kill yourself. But if
- 13:28you truly look homeless, I might buy you some food. Absolutely, So
- 13:35you can do that. You have to spread it around. You have to
- 13:41free will give it away. And I do that all the time. I
- 13:45tip well and make sure my staff are paid. All of my staff make
- 13:48thirty percent more than the industry because I want them to be happy, and
- 13:52if I have, they have. That's how it works. So that is
- 13:56the secret to getting out of your head head that money is bad, money
- 14:01is evil. It's very simple that money is energy that's meant to be spread
- 14:07around, and the more money you have, the more money you can spread
- 14:09around. You have to think of it that way. I have clients that
- 14:13can pay my rate, and I have clients that cannot. The clients that
- 14:18can pay my rate, those that can't, I do promona work for it.
- 14:24And that's not everybody. Not every client you know is a free client.
- 14:26But I do promona work. I also have a school, and there
- 14:31are people that can pay full price for the classes and they do, and
- 14:35there are people that cannot, and we do scholarships. Absolutely. The goal
- 14:41is those that can pay you due and those that can't you can give back
- 14:45freely. Two. That's how the energy of money works. And I think
- 14:50a lot of people get stuck on I can't make money because money is bad.
- 14:58If I make too much money, I'm greedy, I'm evil, I'm
- 15:01wrong. Get out of your head and start thinking about money as energy that
- 15:05transfers hands for more good look at the good of what you can do if
- 15:11you had more currency. The more currency you have, the more currency you
- 15:15can put back into humankind and into the universe to create more currency. I'm
- 15:24gonna take it one step further for you. If you own a lot of
- 15:26junk, and you hold on to stuff, furniture, clothes, baby,
- 15:31stuff, what have you, you cannot get more currency. Ever. Notice
- 15:39the poorer person has more junk on their front porch. There's a reason for
- 15:43that. The more stuff you hold on to, the less the universe gives
- 15:46you. You have to give things away. If you're not using it and
- 15:50it's sitting in your closet, get rid of it. Somebody else can be
- 15:54enjoying it. Even if in the back of your mind you go, oh
- 15:58my god, I don't want to part with that. It is. If
- 16:00you don't want to part with it, sell it on off or up sell
- 16:03it on Facebook, marketplace, give it to a friend. The more you
- 16:07do that, the more you get energetic currency without having to work for it.
- 16:14That's the law of attraction, it's the law of abundance, it's the
- 16:18law of one. We are all connected. If you put back out into
- 16:22the universe, energy you're going to get energy. And if money is the
- 16:27way you need it, it will come in that form. If it's help
- 16:30you need it will come in that form. Whatever it is you need will
- 16:36come in that form. Example, I'm trying to sell my house. I
- 16:42know nothing about visual representation or color palette or anything at all, roughly amauditory
- 16:52dominant. I just know I want it sold. Friend of mine's a builder,
- 16:56took a look at the house and he said, I know what you
- 16:59need to do to make this a higher selling property. I know how to
- 17:03do it, and here's my price. Okay, So he gave me a
- 17:07monetary price for his time, which he should do. I then put out
- 17:11to the universe, I've got to meet this price, or I want to
- 17:15meet this price because I know his work is good and I know it's a
- 17:18fair price. It's under market value, and I know he'll do a good
- 17:22job and I know he'll help me get the house sold. So I put
- 17:26out there that I need to meet a monetary currency. I then got a
- 17:32client that met that monetary currency. So the client I helped get sober that
- 17:37monetary currency comes to me. It flows through me to my friend, the
- 17:41builder. My friend the builder provides the service that which will help me sell
- 17:47my house. Follow that for a second. That's how you should be thinking.
- 17:55I need the service of getting this done, the service required and exchange
- 18:00of something this will be monetary currency. How do I get monetary currency?
- 18:04I do what I'm good at. I help people get sober. That's my
- 18:07job. I'm good at it, and that's my gift to humankind. My
- 18:14friend's gift to humankind is making esthetically pleasing spaces that make people happy. So
- 18:19I know he's gonna come here and make my house look badass, and then
- 18:23somebody will buy it that will want a badass house, that will say I
- 18:27love this house. I love the way it looks. It makes me happy.
- 18:32So what does my friend do? Does he build? No, he
- 18:34makes people happy through the art of building, and he loves what he does,
- 18:40so he should be compensated through the energetic portal of currency because that gets
- 18:45passed on to the buyer, who then appreciates the product. That's how the
- 18:52energy of the universe works right there. That is, in a nutshell,
- 18:56how law of attraction works. So when people tell me I can't manifest anything
- 19:02if you're standing in the mirror giving yourself ten positive affirmations. It doesn't work
- 19:07like that. You have to give to get. You have to freely give
- 19:11with the understanding and the trust that you will get. That's where people go
- 19:18wrong. They want it immediately. If I give you this, I expect
- 19:22something back. You can never expect something in return. You should always freely
- 19:27give. The universe will bring you the people you need and the money and
- 19:33currency you need to do the job you're here for. But you have to
- 19:37trust that process. You have to believe in that process, and you have
- 19:42to have the skill set to get there. So if you want more information,
