- 1:10Speaker 3: Welcome back.
- 1:10Speaker 1: We are doing our living your Diamond Life Q and
- 1:14Speaker 1: A Questions for Women series, and we are on chapter eight,
- 1:21Speaker 1: part what are we doing?
- 1:22Speaker 3: Part two?
- 1:22Speaker 1: Let me get to my little thing here, Okay, So
- 1:25Speaker 1: we are going to do how do I rebuild my
- 1:28Speaker 1: life after financial betrayal? And this is part two. So
- 1:31Speaker 1: I hope you saw part one or listen to part one.
- 1:34Speaker 1: It's really good. So we're going to pick it right
- 1:37Speaker 1: up from where we left off on part one. So
- 1:39Speaker 1: part one went through the explanations of what is betrayal? Right,
- 1:43Speaker 1: it could be loss of money, it could be loss
- 1:47Speaker 1: of control, trust, identity, like it hits all the spots
- 1:51Speaker 1: within our body, right, our nervous system, and we want
- 1:54Speaker 1: to rush right out to fix it.
- 1:55Speaker 3: But we really can't fix it.
- 1:57Speaker 1: By moving numbers around, budgeting, you know, getting new advisors,
- 2:00Speaker 1: you know, selling, buying things. Maybe we actually have to
- 2:04Speaker 1: fix us it has We have to fix our nervous system.
- 2:06Speaker 1: We have to fix the trust and ourselves or our
- 2:09Speaker 1: own decision making. And so that's the inner work. And
- 2:13Speaker 1: that's what we like to do here, right, we like
- 2:15Speaker 1: to do the inner work. Okay, So here's some questions
- 2:18Speaker 1: that I got around financial betrayal. One of them was
- 2:22Speaker 1: on anger. I talked about that in the last episode.
- 2:24Speaker 1: It was really good. I wanted to go over it
- 2:26Speaker 1: again here because I know we feel like we shouldn't
- 2:29Speaker 1: be angry and we should always be nice and be
- 2:32Speaker 1: under control and all that stuff. But anger is really
- 2:35Speaker 1: good because it helps us go up to the emotional
- 2:39Speaker 1: level that we want to be at, which is more happy. Right,
- 2:42Speaker 1: So check out the emotional scale on your computer. Find it,
- 2:46Speaker 1: get it, print it out, make sure you have it.
- 2:49Speaker 1: So when we're in anger, we want to move up
- 2:51Speaker 1: just a little bit. But anger helps us get to
- 2:54Speaker 1: our next emotions. Sometimes we get stuck in anger, or
- 2:57Speaker 1: sometimes we get stuck in depression or below that because
- 3:00Speaker 1: we can't get to anger. We're afraid to be angry.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Maybe we're afraid we're going to lash out on someone,
- 3:05Speaker 1: or we're afraid of other people's anger. So I was
- 3:08Speaker 1: raised an alcoholic calm and yeah, my dad would scream
- 3:10Speaker 1: and yell sometimes, and that scared the crap out of me. Right.
- 3:14Speaker 1: I had a boyfriend in high school that was physical,
- 3:18Speaker 1: and so that was scary. And so all these little things.
- 3:22Speaker 1: As kids and children and teenagers, we create our own
- 3:26Speaker 1: thoughts around anger. That anger is scary. To this day,
- 3:30Speaker 1: I do not like when someone's angry, Like to this day,
- 3:34Speaker 1: confrontation someone else's confrontation scares the heck out of me,
- 3:38Speaker 1: and so I have always grown up to keep the peace.
- 3:42Speaker 1: I'm sure some of you can relate to that. So
- 3:45Speaker 1: I'm afraid sometimes to go to anger around that. Now
- 3:48Speaker 1: for me, I can get there easy if I'm triggered,
- 3:51Speaker 1: but it's not the healthy anger, right, It's more of
- 3:54Speaker 1: the reaction of holy crap, something's going to attack me anger,
- 3:58Speaker 1: And so that's not the level that I need to
- 4:00Speaker 1: be out and nuts. When I know that, when I
- 4:02Speaker 1: get that angry that quick, that trigger, I know that
- 4:06Speaker 1: that's all me, that it has nothing to do with
- 4:08Speaker 1: anybody else. That's all me, And I need to go
- 4:10Speaker 1: figure that out myself. Back away from the situation, the person,
- 4:14Speaker 1: you know, the phone, whoever it might be, and go
- 4:18Speaker 1: figure it out.
- 4:19Speaker 3: Okay. So anger is okay.
- 4:22Speaker 1: On the other side of anger, even when you work
- 4:24Speaker 1: through it becomes it comes clarity, and so you will
- 4:27Speaker 1: find that through the anger. So it's okay to be angry,
- 4:31Speaker 1: but let's just work it out healthily. That makes sense, okay.
- 4:35Speaker 1: Question number one here, how do I trust anyone after
- 4:38Speaker 1: I've been betrayed something like this. That's a great question,
- 4:42Speaker 1: how do I trust anyone? Well, we don't start with
- 4:44Speaker 1: trusting other people. We have to start with trusting ourselves first,
- 4:48Speaker 1: which is actually the biggest job. And so we want
- 4:51Speaker 1: to trust our voice, We want to trust our own questions,
- 4:55Speaker 1: we want to trust our instincts, we want to trust
- 4:57Speaker 1: our gut, and we won't. We don't want to ignore
- 5:00Speaker 1: the same flags that we did before. So we're going
- 5:03Speaker 1: to look at the facts what actually happened. So we're
- 5:08Speaker 1: going to unpack what happened. Right, So let's say, let's see, oh,
- 5:13Speaker 1: my gosh, I used my eyeglasses in the last episode.
- 5:17Speaker 1: Let's just stick with the eyeglasses because that's what's coming
- 5:19Speaker 1: to my mind. Okay, So when I went and sat
- 5:22Speaker 1: down to buy my eyeglasses, did I ask the right questions?
- 5:25Speaker 1: I didn't because I didn't know about all the bells
- 5:28Speaker 1: and whistles that you can do with the glasses, and
- 5:30Speaker 1: so I didn't ask the right questions. And so the
- 5:33Speaker 1: flags are to me when someone's trying to rush me
- 5:36Speaker 1: to make a decision and just to buy this. Now,
- 5:39Speaker 1: do this now. A lot of coaches do that twenty
- 5:42Speaker 1: four hours. If you make the decision now, you're going
- 5:44Speaker 1: to save money. And we do that on purpose because
- 5:47Speaker 1: we do know that once you go home and get
- 5:49Speaker 1: back in your head, or go to your spouse, or
- 5:52Speaker 1: you might change your mind when you know this is
- 5:54Speaker 1: a really good thing for you. I get that, and
- 5:56Speaker 1: I also get that our nervous system could be made
- 6:00Speaker 1: that decision not our true intention sells. So if we
- 6:03Speaker 1: were to purchase that on that spur of the moment,
- 6:07Speaker 1: then we might regret that later. So what I like
- 6:10Speaker 1: to do is at least give it twenty four hours,
- 6:13Speaker 1: sleep on it, whatever, but then think pick it back
- 6:16Speaker 1: up again tomorrow, because you're going to be in a
- 6:17Speaker 1: different state of mind, You're going to be in a different,
- 6:20Speaker 1: different emotional place, and that's when you make your decision
- 6:23Speaker 1: on that. So in the meantime, we're going to do that.
- 6:25Speaker 1: We're going to pause, we're going to trust our instincts,
- 6:28Speaker 1: and we will see things differently. We will see pink flags,
- 6:31Speaker 1: we might see caution flags, yellow flags before we see
- 6:34Speaker 1: the actual red flag of not purchasing something. But I
- 6:38Speaker 1: wouldn't have known, right, I wouldn't have known at that
- 6:41Speaker 1: time I went, I was trying to save some money,
- 6:44Speaker 1: of course, so I did go, and I thought everybody
- 6:47Speaker 1: was great there, But the glasses that actually came out
- 6:50Speaker 1: did not last long at all. And I'm hearing that
- 6:53Speaker 1: around a lot of people are saying that. So trusting
- 6:56Speaker 1: yourself is not about moving the risks removing the risk.
- 7:00Speaker 1: We're still going to have risk when we make decisions,
- 7:02Speaker 1: but it's about increasing our awareness and increasing that we
- 7:07Speaker 1: are where we're at today, making this decision of what
- 7:10Speaker 1: we know right this moment, and trust our gut, not
- 7:14Speaker 1: our head. We have to go into our intuition because
- 7:18Speaker 1: it might not make sense to anyone else why we're
- 7:21Speaker 1: saying yes or no to this, but it does work
- 7:25Speaker 1: with us. And if you ever just I always say,
- 7:27Speaker 1: do you have you ever got a like a hell yeah,
- 7:29Speaker 1: I'm down. That feels great, I'm doing it. Oh heck no,
- 7:33Speaker 1: I'm staying away from that. That doesn't feel good to
- 7:36Speaker 1: me right now, even though on paper it might make
- 7:38Speaker 1: perfect sense to do that, but it just doesn't feel right.
- 7:43Speaker 1: I really want us to get in touch with that,
- 7:45Speaker 1: because there's other things that are going on with everything,
- 7:49Speaker 1: with our world, with our whole body or lives or
- 7:52Speaker 1: next day, the next day after our finances, everything and
- 7:56Speaker 1: our right truer self, our inner knowing, our God, our
- 8:00Speaker 1: angels are whatever you want to call it knows what's
- 8:03Speaker 1: best for us. So if we can tap into that
- 8:06Speaker 1: intuition and to trusting our feelings, we will make the
- 8:09Speaker 1: right decisions moving forward. I know that when I'm in
- 8:12Speaker 1: the flow, when I'm aligned with my inner, knowing, my
- 8:15Speaker 1: true self, my north star, I feel so good and
- 8:18Speaker 1: I can make decisions so quick. I literally my biggest
- 8:22Speaker 1: decisions that I've made. We're really made and done and
- 8:25Speaker 1: accomplished within three weeks, moving across the country, changing companies,
- 8:30Speaker 1: moving places, making big decisions. I'm usually in huge alignment,
- 8:35Speaker 1: and it's so easy. If you're not, then pause. So
- 8:39Speaker 1: if we're not aligned, we're going to pause, and little
- 8:42Speaker 1: steps like that is going to help us. Trust ourselves first,
- 8:46Speaker 1: then we can trust other people. Then we can trust
- 8:49Speaker 1: other people. Okay, question number two, I keep replaying everything
- 8:53Speaker 1: in my head. Why can't I let it go? Oh
- 8:55Speaker 1: my gosh, do we always do that? Right? Oh? We
- 8:58Speaker 1: just beat ourselves up. If I would have done, if
- 9:00Speaker 1: I would have seen this, Oh my goodness. Our brain
- 9:03Speaker 1: is trying to solve what happens, what doesn't happen again,
- 9:07Speaker 1: it's natural, So it's okay. That replay loop in our
- 9:10Speaker 1: mind is searching for control, it's searching for clarity so
- 9:15Speaker 1: that it protects itself from feeling this pain again. Gently
- 9:19Speaker 1: interrupt it by grounding yourself in the present moment. So
- 9:23Speaker 1: we're going to say, hey, what is actually happening right now?
- 9:25Speaker 1: Ask our brain, what is actually happening right now? Wait?
- 9:29Speaker 1: I don't need to solve anything right now, because the
- 9:31Speaker 1: past is done. I'm already safe right now, right this moment.
- 9:37Speaker 1: Take a breath. I have food in my refrigerator, I
- 9:39Speaker 1: have a roof over my head, I have a.
- 9:42Speaker 3: Car to drive.
- 9:43Speaker 1: I'm all good. I'm all good. I'm safe right this moment.
- 9:47Speaker 3: I'm safe.
- 9:48Speaker 1: That will stop the loop. Do you remember that the
- 9:51Speaker 1: Power of Now book? I can't remember who wrote that,
- 9:54Speaker 1: but that was a big thing for a while, the
- 9:55Speaker 1: power of now. Let's stay into the now intentions of
- 9:58Speaker 1: what's going on right now, this moment, write this moment.
- 10:01Speaker 1: I'm sitting here talking to you all. This is great.
- 10:04Speaker 1: I have my amazing producer, Rebel, She's here taking care
- 10:07Speaker 1: of all the sounds. So I can go up and down.
- 10:09Speaker 1: It's all. It's all good. You guys are gonna hear
- 10:11Speaker 1: this amazing podcast. Your life's gonna be transformed.
- 10:17Speaker 3: Everything is great. Write this moment.
- 10:19Speaker 1: I don't have to think back of what just happened
- 10:22Speaker 1: or what I didn't see or could do differently. Let's
- 10:25Speaker 1: just stay right here and then say, Okay, now that
- 10:28Speaker 1: I'm here and safe, what can I do next?
- 10:31Speaker 3: Write it down?
- 10:32Speaker 1: If it's still in your head, write it down, journal, journal, journal,
- 10:35Speaker 1: Make your list, checklist, checklist, get it out of your head.
- 10:38Speaker 1: That's what's trying to control things as our head and
- 10:41Speaker 1: our inner knowing and our heart need to control things
- 10:43Speaker 1: more so. I hope that makes sense. So we want
- 10:47Speaker 1: to be able to feel safe right now. Let go
- 10:49Speaker 1: of the past. I've even written a letter to that incident.
- 10:54Speaker 1: Whatever happened. I had an incident happened with my family
- 10:57Speaker 1: years ago, and we had to go to meet mediation.
- 11:00Speaker 3: It was about a real estate deal and it was horrible.
- 11:03Speaker 1: We actually I lost half my family in the whole transaction,
- 11:06Speaker 1: all around money, which was so sad, so sad, sad,
- 11:09Speaker 1: and it took me a while to work through all
- 11:12Speaker 1: of that and still feel safe in my decisions moving forward,
- 11:16Speaker 1: and so betrayal happens, right, it just does.
- 11:20Speaker 3: But don't worry.
- 11:21Speaker 1: We can absolutely get on the right track and trust
- 11:23Speaker 1: ourselves again. Okay, question number three, I feel like I
- 11:26Speaker 1: lost part of who I was.
- 11:28Speaker 3: Is that normal?
- 11:29Speaker 1: Abs so freaking lutely that's normal, right, totally normal, because
- 11:34Speaker 1: we feel like we're so solid when we're making a
- 11:36Speaker 1: decision like I did with that real estate deal. I
- 11:39Speaker 1: felt that I was doing the best thing for everyone included,
- 11:43Speaker 1: and then I went and got blindsided, totally betrayed, lost
- 11:46Speaker 1: my trust.
- 11:47Speaker 3: In humanity and family and people. It was horrible.
- 11:51Speaker 1: So I needed to go back and say, Okay, who
- 11:55Speaker 1: was I during that time making those decisions? It just
- 11:59Speaker 1: shat matters us completely. If I saw myself as secure,
- 12:03Speaker 1: which I did, I saw myself secure, capable, knowing, in control.
- 12:08Speaker 1: But I still made the mistakes of trusting people I
- 12:11Speaker 1: shouldn't have trusted. So here's the reframe. I did not
- 12:14Speaker 1: lose myself. I'm meeting with more of a version of
- 12:18Speaker 1: whom I am now. My identity isn't gone, it's evolving.
- 12:22Speaker 3: We're just growing. Yeah, I'm still growing in my sixties.
- 12:26Speaker 3: Is that not ridiculous.
- 12:27Speaker 1: So actually this happened in my fifties, but still I'm
- 12:30Speaker 1: still It's still with me, right, It's all the experiences.
- 12:33Speaker 1: And as they say, every thought can never be unthought.
- 12:37Speaker 1: Every thought is in our file cabinet of the sunconscious.
- 12:40Speaker 1: That is there in our subconscious. It's there, it doesn't
- 12:43Speaker 1: go away. All we want to do is reframe it
- 12:46Speaker 1: and have introduced new thoughts. So that's who I was then.
- 12:50Speaker 1: I probably going back then, I probably would have made
- 12:53Speaker 1: the same decisions as I did then because that's who
- 12:56Speaker 1: I was then. That's not who I am now, So
- 12:59Speaker 1: now I would be different. I'm evolving. I still trust people,
- 13:04Speaker 1: I still look at that. However, I'm going to look
- 13:06Speaker 1: at the whole picture, not just this this incident. I
- 13:10Speaker 1: would get more reviews on past workings and past dealings
- 13:15Speaker 1: that people have done in order to step up and
- 13:17Speaker 1: trust them. And you know, I'm learning definitely, Okay. Question
- 13:22Speaker 1: number four, how do I stop this from affecting my
- 13:24Speaker 1: future relationships? That is a great question, with relationships or
- 13:29Speaker 1: with money and people? How do I not just you know,
- 13:32Speaker 1: throw up a bunch of boundaries and like, I'm never
- 13:35Speaker 1: doing business with friends and family again, Well, I can't
- 13:38Speaker 1: ever say that because my friends and family are my
- 13:41Speaker 1: clients and I want it that way and I would
- 13:43Speaker 1: never want to stop that. So it's not friends and family,
- 13:46Speaker 1: it's people who that are your friends and family. Is
- 13:50Speaker 1: it that person that you want to do business with,
- 13:53Speaker 1: not just a blanket? So how do I stop from
- 13:55Speaker 1: doing this? I want to not harden myself, not throw
- 13:59Speaker 1: up all those boundaries just because, but refining it, there's
- 14:03Speaker 1: a difference. The boundaries say I'll never do business with
- 14:05Speaker 1: friends and family again, I'll never trust my friends and
- 14:08Speaker 1: family again. So the redefining that is going to say,
- 14:12Speaker 1: I will trust with awareness, with boundaries, and with my
- 14:18Speaker 1: full voice. My future doesn't need to be controlled by
- 14:21Speaker 1: my past, but it should be informed by it. So
- 14:25Speaker 1: we are learning from our past, but it's not going
- 14:28Speaker 1: to dictate my future. So we're going to learn what
- 14:31Speaker 1: happened and move forward. Which is why we do want
- 14:35Speaker 1: to talk to our elderly and our middle aged and
- 14:39Speaker 1: our boomers and whatever we want to call it, because
- 14:41Speaker 1: we've been around the block so many times and we
- 14:44Speaker 1: want to be able to talk to the people who
- 14:45Speaker 1: aren't just rigid and throwing up the boundaries against everyone
- 14:49Speaker 1: but that have some type of knowledge and a little
- 14:52Speaker 1: bit of lessons that they've learned, because then we can
- 14:55Speaker 1: share in that knowledge. However, words don't teach actions do
- 14:59Speaker 1: behaviors do? Right, So we all kind of have to
- 15:01Speaker 1: learn or lessons ourselves. I love it, Okay, Next question,
- 15:06Speaker 1: Why do I feel like I can't relax when nothing
- 15:08Speaker 1: is happening right now? Oh that's a good one. So
- 15:11Speaker 1: your nervous system is still an alert. It is waiting
- 15:13Speaker 1: for the next shoe to drop. Have you ever felt
- 15:15Speaker 1: that that way? Like you're walking on eggshells after a betrayal.
- 15:19Speaker 1: Your body is scanning for the next problem. It's like,
- 15:22Speaker 1: where's it at? Where's it at? So it doesn't get
- 15:24Speaker 1: caught off guard again, that was just like a big
- 15:27Speaker 1: slap in the face, like it hurt so bad, So
- 15:30Speaker 1: it's on guard. Your body is doing that on its own.
- 15:33Speaker 1: It's just automatic. So safety doesn't come from everything just
- 15:38Speaker 1: being perfect. It actually comes from us controlling our body.
- 15:42Speaker 1: So we need to remind our body I can handle
- 15:45Speaker 1: what comes. That's how we slowly turn the alarm off
- 15:49Speaker 1: and again, going back to right this moment, I'm safe,
- 15:53Speaker 1: right now, right this moment, right today, this time and life.
- 15:57Speaker 3: I'm good. I'm all good. It's amazing.
- 16:01Speaker 1: The alarms can just go off because everything's great. And
- 16:05Speaker 1: if you got through one betrayal, you can handle what
- 16:08Speaker 1: comes next. And any of us, if you've been like me,
- 16:11Speaker 1: been through the hell and back, we have been on
- 16:14Speaker 1: the floor of despair. We've been there. I know that
- 16:18Speaker 1: I can handle so much. Not that I want to
- 16:20Speaker 1: call it in. That's not what I'm saying. I'm just
- 16:23Speaker 1: saying I know that I can handle myself. I know
- 16:26Speaker 1: that I can handle what life generates or I attract. Right,
- 16:32Speaker 1: I know I can handle it. I just I know
- 16:34Speaker 1: I can't. I'm just stronger every day. But I'm also
- 16:38Speaker 1: stronger with an inner knowing and an inner alignment that
- 16:41Speaker 1: I'm not alone and the universe has got my back. Okay,
- 16:44Speaker 1: next question. I feel like I'm lost. I feel like
- 16:48Speaker 1: I lost actual time in my life. I feel like
- 16:51Speaker 1: I have to rush to fix everything right now. Okay,
- 16:55Speaker 1: that's a good one. That urgency is just fear dressed
- 16:59Speaker 1: up in action. It wants to do something to get
- 17:04Speaker 1: out of the fear. So first of all, we have
- 17:06Speaker 1: to know that we did not lose our future. You're
- 17:09Speaker 1: just being invited to rebuild it differently. So okay, thank
- 17:13Speaker 1: you for that contrast, thank you for that lesson. What
- 17:16Speaker 1: have I learned moving forward? I need to look at
- 17:19Speaker 1: the person in previous incidences before before I can actually
- 17:22Speaker 1: trust that person. So how do they handle life in general?
- 17:26Speaker 1: If I'm going to do a real estate deal with someone, well,
- 17:28Speaker 1: that's okay. But have they ever filed for bankruptcy? Have
- 17:32Speaker 1: they ever tried to trick somebody on an insurance scam?
- 17:35Speaker 1: Have they ever betrayed a friend? Or have they ever
- 17:39Speaker 1: just cut somebody off completely? Like do they only focus
- 17:42Speaker 1: on themselves or do they actually listen to you when
- 17:45Speaker 1: they're having a conversation. Do they actually care about you
- 17:49Speaker 1: personally as well? Like all of that goes rolls into
- 17:53Speaker 1: can I trust this person? So we want to look
- 17:55Speaker 1: at all of that before we rush into fixing everything.
- 18:01Speaker 1: Rushing creates more mistakes because it's coming from the fear
- 18:05Speaker 1: part of us. It's coming from the scarce, scared little
- 18:08Speaker 1: part of us. Blowing down creates alignment. I should say
- 18:12Speaker 1: even slowing down allows alignment. You're not behind. We're just
- 18:17Speaker 1: recalibrating our energy. We're recalibrating our thought or just stepping
- 18:23Speaker 1: into the nervous system of calm and clarity before we
- 18:27Speaker 1: make the next decision. Okay, next question, I don't trust
- 18:31Speaker 1: my judgment anymore? How do I get back to trusting
- 18:33Speaker 1: my judgment? Great quick question. Start by honoring decisions you're
- 18:37Speaker 1: making right now, even small. What time you wake up,
- 18:40Speaker 1: what you have for breakfast? Did you like I went
- 18:42Speaker 1: to kickboxing. I took my vitamins first, I took my electrolytes.
- 18:47Speaker 1: All these decisions I'm making to stay safe and take
- 18:51Speaker 1: care of myself and my body. Judgment isn't rebuilt through
- 18:55Speaker 1: big leaps. It's rebuilt through consistent, aligned choice and decisions
- 19:00Speaker 1: that you're making today. Did you make your bed? Did
- 19:03Speaker 1: you take a shower? What type of music are you
- 19:05Speaker 1: listening to? Everything needs to do. Everything in my life
- 19:09Speaker 1: is built up to build me healthy. I want to
- 19:12Speaker 1: be healthy. I want to be strong. I want to
- 19:14Speaker 1: be happy and joyous. So every little thing that I do,
- 19:18Speaker 1: like this right here, talking on this podcast sharing this
- 19:21Speaker 1: information to me lights me up.
- 19:23Speaker 3: I love it. It feels really good.
- 19:24Speaker 1: It's stressful right before I'm getting it done and working
- 19:27Speaker 1: on it and pushing the button to go. But then
- 19:29Speaker 1: once I'm here. It's awesome because I know that's what
- 19:31Speaker 1: I'm built to do. Right, So every little thing needs
- 19:35Speaker 1: to be built up to help us trust ourselves again
- 19:38Speaker 1: because we don't trust our judgment. So take into account
- 19:41Speaker 1: not just the money items, but everything your shopping for yourselves,
- 19:45Speaker 1: your groceries, your recipes. Who are you allowing into your world?
- 19:50Speaker 1: Are you allowing negative nellies to come in when we
- 19:53Speaker 1: are not trusting ourselves with our decisions. We really need
- 19:57Speaker 1: to have the people that build us up in our life,
- 20:00Speaker 1: that person that loves you no matter what, have a
- 20:02Speaker 1: conversation with them. Reach out to the people that are
- 20:05Speaker 1: just happy all the time, and positive reach out to
- 20:08Speaker 1: those don't. Don't don't call the despair people and the
- 20:13Speaker 1: negative nellies, right, we want to call the positive people, Okay,
- 20:17Speaker 1: And then we're gonna listen to ourselves just a little
- 20:20Speaker 1: bit more. Every every choice that we make, we're going
- 20:23Speaker 1: to listen to ourselves a little bit more. And the
- 20:25Speaker 1: louder our inner voice becomes, the more we're going to
- 20:29Speaker 1: trust our intuition. And then we will get right back
- 20:32Speaker 1: to our understanding our judgment. I promise you it will work.
- 20:35Speaker 1: Last question, part of me still feels attached to the
- 20:38Speaker 1: person who hurt me. Oh my gosh, I was attached
- 20:40Speaker 1: for so long, especially if they've been in your life
- 20:42Speaker 1: for a long time. Connection doesn't disappear just because our
- 20:46Speaker 1: heart was broken and we were betrayed. We love somebody,
- 20:48Speaker 1: We can still love them, and we can acknowledge that
- 20:51Speaker 1: wasn't happened, wasn't okay. Healing isn't about shutting off emotion.
- 20:55Speaker 1: It's about holding the truth and compassion in the same
- 20:57Speaker 1: time without abounding ourselves. So yes, I had amazing memories
- 21:02Speaker 1: with my family. I had amazing memories. It was all good,
- 21:05Speaker 1: and it was great. That didn't go away. That's still
- 21:07Speaker 1: with me right now. You know what we did before
- 21:11Speaker 1: was great. They're not here now. But I still have
- 21:13Speaker 1: to heal how I felt. I have to heal the anger,
- 21:16Speaker 1: to release let go, release the judgment, release the anger,
- 21:20Speaker 1: forgive myself. I had to forgive myself for making the
- 21:23Speaker 1: mistakes that I did. So I had to forgive myself
- 21:26Speaker 1: to be able to trust myself again and to release
- 21:30Speaker 1: that person.
- 21:31Speaker 3: There's a lot of.
- 21:33Speaker 1: Journaling, writing a letter, releasing, forgiving yourself. There's a lot
- 21:37Speaker 1: of ways that we can do that. Just to release
- 21:38Speaker 1: the energy from that person. I hope this has all
- 21:41Speaker 1: helped you all with part two of being financially betrayed
- 21:45Speaker 1: and come back and listen to all the other chapters,
- 21:47Speaker 1: and I want you all to be able to walk
