- 1:16Speaker 1: old ways of thinking. By recognizing that soul health encompasses
- 1:21Speaker 1: more than just mental health and physical well being, she's
- 1:24Speaker 1: created an approach that is set to transform the way
- 1:26Speaker 1: we understand and achieve over all health. Well awesome, I mean,
- 1:33Speaker 1: let's get into this, but before we do, share with
- 1:35Speaker 1: the listeners where you're from originally and where you are
- 1:37Speaker 1: are currently.
- 1:40Speaker 3: Well Originally, I am from Illinois, grew up born and
- 1:45Speaker 3: raised in central Illinois near Champagne Orbana, which is the
- 1:49Speaker 3: University of Illinois, so people may recognize that. And I
- 1:53Speaker 3: have lived primarily in Chicago, but did spend about ten
- 1:58Speaker 3: years in Silicon Valley out in California as well, but
- 2:01Speaker 3: currently in the frigid tempts of Chicago.
- 2:06Speaker 1: So reading your bio it one easily gets the impression
- 2:14Speaker 1: not all too familiar nowadays, where you've had all this
- 2:17Speaker 1: experience in corporate and something shifted, you shifted and we're
- 2:25Speaker 1: talking about soul health. How did this? How did how
- 2:30Speaker 1: did this start? For you? This? This what did we
- 2:32Speaker 1: call it? New paradigm awareness?
- 2:35Speaker 3: Yeah, so I really started, you know, during my corporate career.
- 2:40Speaker 3: I was a fan of deeppop Chopra back in the eighties, right,
- 2:44Speaker 3: So all that self awareness started back there in the eighties,
- 2:49Speaker 3: and was an avid reader and just knew that, you know,
- 2:53Speaker 3: something was missing in terms of some depth of being, right.
- 2:58Speaker 1: So you personally for me personally for.
- 3:01Speaker 3: Me personally, So just wanting to understand myself more, give
- 3:05Speaker 3: back more of my true self and survive in the
- 3:10Speaker 3: corporate setting. As you know, back in the eighties, there
- 3:13Speaker 3: weren't a lot of business women and and so you know,
- 3:18Speaker 3: I was amongst my male counterparts, and you know, working
- 3:24Speaker 3: in a male dominated environment primarily, and wanted to thrive,
- 3:29Speaker 3: and so I just kept reading and taking in information
- 3:34Speaker 3: and again enjoying my career. So I truly enjoyed my
- 3:38Speaker 3: career in finance and asset management. You know, worked with
- 3:44Speaker 3: two different companies, you know, Deutsche Bank as well as
- 3:48Speaker 3: NASDAC as you mentioned, and really enjoyed all aspects of that.
- 3:52Speaker 2: But there were some struggles as well.
- 3:55Speaker 1: Okay, let's let's kind of put a frame around that.
- 3:57Speaker 1: What what are we talking about here? What kind of
- 3:59Speaker 1: struggles was missing for you?
- 4:03Speaker 3: You know, I think in terms of what was missing
- 4:05Speaker 3: is you know, people being real. Right, Let's not just
- 4:09Speaker 3: play the game and pretend where somebody were not.
- 4:12Speaker 2: Let's be real about our struggles.
- 4:15Speaker 3: Are pain, the angst of working, you know, in corporate America,
- 4:20Speaker 3: winning deals, losing deals. You know, let's all be real
- 4:24Speaker 3: and in depth about this.
- 4:26Speaker 2: So it's not all a bull of cherries, as they say.
- 4:30Speaker 1: Right.
- 4:31Speaker 3: So, I think in corporate America you couldn't show your
- 4:35Speaker 3: true feelings, right. You have to, you know, pick yourself
- 4:40Speaker 3: back up and say, okay, got to go again.
- 4:42Speaker 2: But wow did that hurt? Right?
- 4:45Speaker 3: To lose a deal or to be in conflict with
- 4:50Speaker 3: an associate?
- 4:51Speaker 1: And I guess one of the arguments here is that, well,
- 4:55Speaker 1: there's a time and a place for that, Pam, Right,
- 4:58Speaker 1: why are you bringing into the office deal with that
- 5:02Speaker 1: at home? So? Why why was this important for you
- 5:07Speaker 1: to bring into the workplace?
- 5:09Speaker 2: In a sense, Well, it's who I am, right.
- 5:13Speaker 3: I think I'm a sensitive being. I think that I
- 5:16Speaker 3: want to know individuals at their truest level. And I
- 5:21Speaker 3: was able to get there with my colleagues.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Right.
- 5:23Speaker 3: A lot of colleagues would say, wow, I enjoyed our conversation.
- 5:26Speaker 2: And you really know me who I am.
- 5:29Speaker 3: And so once you validate a person and see them
- 5:32Speaker 3: for who they are, they shine.
- 5:35Speaker 2: They truly shine. So I tell people you want.
- 5:38Speaker 3: To show your true self and be valued for that
- 5:42Speaker 3: true self because there's multi dimensions of us.
- 5:48Speaker 2: Regardless of whatever position you hold.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I love this. Okay. So, and just to
- 5:55Speaker 1: set some context here, how long when did this happen
- 6:00Speaker 1: for you? How long did how long had you been
- 6:03Speaker 1: in corporate before when this started arising for you emerging
- 6:08Speaker 1: for you?
- 6:09Speaker 2: I would say about twenty years.
- 6:12Speaker 1: What's crazy? Now, it's not crazy, but we hear this
- 6:14Speaker 1: all the time, but this is amazing. So yeah, twenty years.
- 6:18Speaker 1: Was there something that was there an event or was
- 6:21Speaker 1: just like a slow burning?
- 6:23Speaker 2: Yeah, probably a slow burn.
- 6:25Speaker 3: I think you know, you would enjoy moments and then
- 6:29Speaker 3: those moments and then you had some tough moments and
- 6:31Speaker 3: that would take you back. And it's like finding that balance, right,
- 6:35Speaker 3: I mean, life is hard, life is good, but let's
- 6:39Speaker 3: just balance it all out. So I wanted that balance
- 6:42Speaker 3: where I wouldn't take that home with me and then
- 6:46Speaker 3: ruminate over it, right, like just keep going over and
- 6:49Speaker 3: over the negative versus the positive.
- 6:52Speaker 2: So we're all.
- 6:53Speaker 3: Real and there's you know, as they say in entrepreneurship,
- 6:57Speaker 3: if you're not failing, you're not succeeding you. And I
- 7:02Speaker 3: did have a boss tell me one, Pam, you should
- 7:05Speaker 3: have told me. I neglected to mention something a conversation
- 7:10Speaker 3: I had with another executive and he then, of course
- 7:14Speaker 3: had that conversation with the executive, and they came back
- 7:16Speaker 3: to me and said, Pam, why don't you tell me
- 7:18Speaker 3: about this conversation?
- 7:19Speaker 2: And I'm like, well, I didn't want it to look
- 7:23Speaker 2: bad on me.
- 7:23Speaker 3: I didn't want to bring you into the problem. And
- 7:26Speaker 3: he said, no, no, no, you need to tell me
- 7:28Speaker 3: and give me a heads up so that one I
- 7:31Speaker 3: can defend you. Or it's okay to make a mistake,
- 7:34Speaker 3: it's okay. So again you're validated. Wow, I don't have
- 7:38Speaker 3: to hide, you know, the bad comments in the situations.
- 7:43Speaker 3: And so I think I learned from there too. You
- 7:48Speaker 3: should be truthful up front. Not that you weren't truthful,
- 7:51Speaker 3: but let's just get it all out there.
- 7:55Speaker 1: So you're reading Deepak, You're having these experience at the workplace.
- 8:00Speaker 1: Is this unfold? What do you start to do?
- 8:03Speaker 3: So I started living my truth and just speaking my
- 8:07Speaker 3: truth in terms of you know, if I didn't like something,
- 8:12Speaker 3: I would say it, and if you speak it out.
- 8:16Speaker 2: Of truth, and not out of ego or attack. People
- 8:23Speaker 2: will listen to that.
- 8:25Speaker 3: People will listen, so you don't always have to agree
- 8:29Speaker 3: with what is happening, and you can add comments of
- 8:34Speaker 3: that doesn't feel right to me.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Can we discuss it further.
- 8:38Speaker 1: It takes a certain amount of courage to do that.
- 8:40Speaker 3: Yes, yes, and you have to you know, we have
- 8:44Speaker 3: you know as women. You know, I fought to get
- 8:47Speaker 3: a seat at the table. You got a seat at
- 8:49Speaker 3: the table. But you have to speak up. Once you're
- 8:52Speaker 3: at the table, you cannot sit back. You have to
- 8:55Speaker 3: speak up and your voice is important. So I think
- 8:58Speaker 3: I learned that as I evolved into that.
- 9:03Speaker 1: So let's talk about quantum sense. How did that come about?
- 9:08Speaker 1: And why?
- 9:10Speaker 3: So? I I loved corporate America. After forty years, it
- 9:15Speaker 3: was time to move on. It was right at the
- 9:16Speaker 3: beginning of COVID. Little did I realize that the timing
- 9:20Speaker 3: was COVID because obviously the world changed, and I thought,
- 9:27Speaker 3: why not, you know, talk more about the true being.
- 9:32Speaker 3: You know, we're mind, body and soul, not just mind
- 9:37Speaker 3: and body.
- 9:37Speaker 2: But let's bring our soul.
- 9:39Speaker 3: And I think that's what's missing in corporate America, as
- 9:42Speaker 3: a person bringing their entire being to the party. And
- 9:48Speaker 3: most people aren't comfortable talking about the soul. They don't
- 9:52Speaker 3: know what their soul is, their soul essence. But you know,
- 9:55Speaker 3: it's kindness, it's positivity, it's knowing who you are at
- 10:01Speaker 3: your core.
- 10:03Speaker 1: Were you did you have a family at this time?
- 10:06Speaker 1: Married and you don't have a family.
- 10:07Speaker 2: No?
- 10:08Speaker 1: No, okay, so you weren't married ever, No kids, no
- 10:13Speaker 1: kid solo pam mm hmm okay.
- 10:17Speaker 2: Evolving on my own, on your own.
- 10:20Speaker 1: So let's get back to you kind of touched upon
- 10:23Speaker 1: a little bit. But how do you how do you
- 10:24Speaker 1: define soul? What is it? You said kindness? The soul is.
- 10:29Speaker 2: Your energy center.
- 10:30Speaker 3: It's an energetic part of yourself that is within yourself.
- 10:36Speaker 2: You own that part of you, just like you own.
- 10:39Speaker 3: Your physical body. So I like to say for your
- 10:42Speaker 3: physical body, your heart, your lungs, your muscles, you go
- 10:47Speaker 3: to a doctor, right, a medical doctor, but you don't
- 10:51Speaker 3: give over your physical body to someone.
- 10:55Speaker 2: You still own that and you still.
- 10:57Speaker 3: Have to take care of it mental body as well, right,
- 11:02Speaker 3: your mental facilities. You may go and talk to a therapist,
- 11:06Speaker 3: but you still have to do the hard work.
- 11:08Speaker 2: And it's still part of you. Soul.
- 11:11Speaker 3: I find people think that's religion, that's part of religion.
- 11:16Speaker 2: It's not. It's part of you. So we need to
- 11:20Speaker 2: be talking about it.
- 11:21Speaker 3: Just like you wouldn't give your physical body over and say, okay,
- 11:25Speaker 3: here doctor, here's my physical body. You wouldn't give that
- 11:28Speaker 3: over to Religion's religion is a resource, but it's not
- 11:35Speaker 3: your soul. So let's talk start talking about your soul
- 11:39Speaker 3: as part of you.
- 11:42Speaker 1: So what okay? So talk more specifically about the genesis
- 11:47Speaker 1: of quantum.
- 11:50Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, So Quantum Sense is a consulting firm. So
- 11:54Speaker 3: I go in and consult whether it is individuals or
- 11:57Speaker 3: with groups, and I talk about the importance of knowing
- 12:02Speaker 3: and bringing forth your whole being to everything that you do,
- 12:06Speaker 3: and that includes your work. So and how can you
- 12:09Speaker 3: bring forth everything if you don't know about a certain
- 12:13Speaker 3: part of yourself? You know, corporations have you know, club memberships,
- 12:19Speaker 3: you know doctors, you know on staff that you can
- 12:23Speaker 3: go to for your physical health. We now even have
- 12:26Speaker 3: mental health facilities, right, you can talk freely about you know,
- 12:30Speaker 3: I need a mental health day, I'm depressed, I'm taking
- 12:32Speaker 3: this drug, you know, the therapist, et cetera. But you
- 12:36Speaker 3: don't have a part about the soul. And where do
- 12:39Speaker 3: you go to talk about your soul? And what programs
- 12:42Speaker 3: can you incorporate for your employees to get a better
- 12:45Speaker 3: knowing of that?
- 12:47Speaker 2: And so I start with the.
- 12:48Speaker 3: Senses, and so I have a program that incorporates grounding
- 12:52Speaker 3: yourself and your senses, elevating yourself into your highest energetic being,
- 12:58Speaker 3: and then evolving to your souls essence and purpose.
- 13:02Speaker 1: My guess is that there are some people who are like,
- 13:09Speaker 1: what are you talking about. I don't want this, I
- 13:12Speaker 1: don't want my I don't want my employees induct with
- 13:15Speaker 1: their soul. They want to do that, Pam, let them
- 13:17Speaker 1: do it on their own time. But what are the
- 13:20Speaker 1: benefits of having employees running and I'm just speaking hyperbolic
- 13:26Speaker 1: here in a sense, what is the benefits of having
- 13:28Speaker 1: them running around feeling more in tune with themselves?
- 13:32Speaker 3: Well, you get a better commitment from that employer, employee.
- 13:37Speaker 3: They're committed because you understand them as a whole being. Right,
- 13:42Speaker 3: Why are you taking care of their physical health? Why
- 13:45Speaker 3: are you taking care of their mental health? Because it's
- 13:47Speaker 3: important what they bring to the office.
- 13:50Speaker 2: So the third leg of that is the soul.
- 13:54Speaker 3: So it's just as important as the physical and the mental.
- 13:58Speaker 3: So obviously you want healthy employees physically so that they
- 14:02Speaker 3: do show up mentally, Yeah, you want healthy employees so
- 14:07Speaker 3: that they can function at a higher level.
- 14:10Speaker 2: And then the soul is is a part of that.
- 14:12Speaker 3: Something's missing, right, the surveys are saying again and again,
- 14:17Speaker 3: employees are unhappy.
- 14:18Speaker 2: Employees are unhappy.
- 14:19Speaker 3: So you're providing all these resources, they have comfortable surroundings
- 14:25Speaker 3: to work in.
- 14:26Speaker 2: What what is missing?
- 14:29Speaker 3: And I say it's soul and the soul health and
- 14:33Speaker 3: how we're evolving into the new paradigm give us.
- 14:37Speaker 2: And we are creating a new future.
- 14:39Speaker 1: Well, okay, so what is when you say new paradigm?
- 14:42Speaker 1: What does that mean?
- 14:44Speaker 3: So you know, we all were born into a paradigm
- 14:48Speaker 3: that was really based on survival, so and survival the fittest,
- 14:54Speaker 3: and yes that was necessary back in the dark ages,
- 14:59Speaker 3: But now I would put out there that you and
- 15:02Speaker 3: I don't have to wake up and figure out where
- 15:04Speaker 3: we're going to get food.
- 15:06Speaker 2: So it's not survival mode.
- 15:09Speaker 3: So how can we transition from survival mode to thrive mode? Well,
- 15:14Speaker 3: the structures that have been built might be keeping us
- 15:17Speaker 3: in survival mode. So whether that's corporate structures, political structures.
- 15:23Speaker 3: So we're entering into a new phase where we can
- 15:28Speaker 3: thrive at an elevated positive being instead of a negative
- 15:34Speaker 3: survival being. So do you have the skills to do that?
- 15:38Speaker 3: And it takes practice to learn how to be a
- 15:43Speaker 3: part of the new paradigm that we are all creating.
- 15:46Speaker 2: We're creating a future and I like to say, when
- 15:48Speaker 2: I was in Silicon Valley, I live the future.
- 15:53Speaker 3: You know, we need inspirational you know, people that think
- 15:57Speaker 3: outside the box and all these new tools that we're using.
- 16:02Speaker 3: I'm sure that you know, my grandmother never thought we'd
- 16:05Speaker 3: be talking on a cell phone.
- 16:06Speaker 2: You know, when they didn't even have you.
- 16:09Speaker 3: Know, telephones probably or you know, when Henry Ford invented
- 16:14Speaker 3: the car, right, there were many people that said, what's
- 16:17Speaker 3: wrong with horse and buggy? Right?
- 16:18Speaker 1: So faster horse?
- 16:21Speaker 2: Huh?
- 16:21Speaker 1: A faster horse? They don't now a faster horse.
- 16:24Speaker 3: But we need to continue to reinvent ourselves, and not
- 16:27Speaker 3: just with products physical products, but as part of our
- 16:31Speaker 3: human structure. We need to continue to reinvent ourselves.
- 16:35Speaker 2: And so that's what soul health.
- 16:37Speaker 3: Is about, continuing to reinvent and add one more element
- 16:43Speaker 3: to who you are as a person.
- 16:45Speaker 1: When when you work with a company. First of all,
- 16:53Speaker 1: who calls you, who reaches out to you? What do
- 16:55Speaker 1: they say? Well, obviously it's going to be different in
- 16:57Speaker 1: many answers, but generally speaking, what do they said, call
- 17:00Speaker 1: you up, PAM when you need to talk to us?
- 17:03Speaker 3: Because you know what is soul health? I first of
- 17:09Speaker 3: all ask about what is soul health? What is your program? Like,
- 17:12Speaker 3: what do you bring to the table? And when I
- 17:15Speaker 3: say you have programs for physical health, you have programs
- 17:19Speaker 3: for mental health, but do you have programs for soul health?
- 17:22Speaker 2: And we all know the.
- 17:23Speaker 3: Phrase mind, body, and soul, and soul does not belong
- 17:27Speaker 3: to it's not religious. So the number one obstacle I
- 17:31Speaker 3: get is, oh, you're teetering into the religious aspect of people,
- 17:36Speaker 3: and that's not true.
- 17:38Speaker 2: Take back your soul.
- 17:40Speaker 1: What would you say? It's a spiritual aspect.
- 17:44Speaker 3: You know, I don't use the word spiritual, but yes,
- 17:46Speaker 3: if you want to say spirit, you can say spirit.
- 17:49Speaker 3: I say soul because spirit does lean more towards religion. Right,
- 17:54Speaker 3: So if I say body, mind, and soul, I feel
- 18:00Speaker 3: it's encapsulates your humanness, your humanness versus I'm not saying
- 18:08Speaker 3: you know the resources available to help us in our humanness. Right.
- 18:14Speaker 3: And traditionally, again, there's many modes of medicine, right, so
- 18:19Speaker 3: there's Western and Eastern medicine. Western medicine takes place, so
- 18:23Speaker 3: you go, let's say you go to a Western medicine doctor,
- 18:27Speaker 3: but someone else may go to the Eastern medicine doctor, right,
- 18:30Speaker 3: and you may disagree on those concepts.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Same with mental health. You know what you know? Products
- 18:36Speaker 2: are you adjusting.
- 18:37Speaker 3: In your body or is it the typical you know,
- 18:41Speaker 3: drugs that are manufactured, is it natural essences?
- 18:44Speaker 2: What are you doing? And the same with soul.
- 18:47Speaker 3: You know, traditionally, I think people have given over the
- 18:50Speaker 3: soul to the religious aspect of it, and maybe that
- 18:54Speaker 3: was a start. But in this new dimension, the soul
- 18:57Speaker 3: belongs to you. So take back your soul. How do
- 19:02Speaker 3: you do that? Is you start with your senses. We
- 19:05Speaker 3: all have our senses. And there's some neuroscience to this,
- 19:09Speaker 3: there's some biology to this, there's some you know, chemistry
- 19:13Speaker 3: all related to this.
- 19:14Speaker 2: But you take in and let's say that you love the.
- 19:18Speaker 1: Smell of pnder pine.
- 19:20Speaker 2: Pine.
- 19:21Speaker 3: Let's say you love that relaxes you, that makes you
- 19:24Speaker 3: feel good. Let's say somebody else walks in and says, oh,
- 19:27Speaker 3: what's that smell?
- 19:28Speaker 2: That doesn't feel good to me? That makes me tense.
- 19:31Speaker 3: So we're individuals in that right, in terms of our senses.
- 19:37Speaker 3: We're individuals in terms of our soul. So I'm an
- 19:40Speaker 3: identical twin. So literally, people have said, well, you're half
- 19:44Speaker 3: a person. Well, my body is exactly like another person's body. Right, Physically,
- 19:51Speaker 3: we're in half.
- 19:52Speaker 2: Our DNA the whole thing.
- 19:54Speaker 3: Mentally, okay, you can say mentally pretty much the same.
- 19:58Speaker 3: But what is different is our So we're two individuals
- 20:04Speaker 3: because of our soul.
- 20:05Speaker 1: Okay, let me hone in here. So you started talking
- 20:11Speaker 1: about the senses. How do you help people get in
- 20:15Speaker 1: touch with their soul? How do you work? Give us
- 20:18Speaker 1: more specifics?
- 20:19Speaker 3: Yeah, so I take them through a series of questions
- 20:24Speaker 3: that start with the senses, and we can spend a
- 20:27Speaker 3: lot of time on that.
- 20:28Speaker 2: Right.
- 20:28Speaker 3: So your senses are how you interact with your outside environment.
- 20:33Speaker 3: And so I like to say, let's start outside in
- 20:37Speaker 3: so let's sit here.
- 20:39Speaker 2: What are your surroundings?
- 20:41Speaker 3: Are your surroundings uplifting or is there some negative vibration
- 20:47Speaker 3: to it?
- 20:48Speaker 2: So let's what are you hearing, what are you seeing?
- 20:52Speaker 2: What are you smelling? Because that does affect your overall being. Right,
- 20:57Speaker 2: if you walked into a.
- 20:58Speaker 3: Dark, cluttered, smelling house, would you feel good when you
- 21:02Speaker 3: walked in or would your body go into probably automatic
- 21:06Speaker 3: stress mode? Right? And so it's so simple, right, like
- 21:11Speaker 3: fill your house with pine candles, right, that uplifts you.
- 21:15Speaker 2: That doesn't take much.
- 21:17Speaker 3: You know, or you know essential oils that makes you
- 21:20Speaker 3: feel good. You know that, why don't you incorporate that
- 21:23Speaker 3: into your home. Let's say you love the color blue.
- 21:27Speaker 3: That your home is brown and pink, So does that
- 21:33Speaker 3: make you know? So fill your home with blue items,
- 21:36Speaker 3: paint the walls, because there is science to that. You're
- 21:41Speaker 3: you're taking that in through your senses, and you're either
- 21:44Speaker 3: elevating your bean or you're downrating.
- 21:48Speaker 1: Okay, and I'm sorry direct, but obviously this is something
- 21:52Speaker 1: that many of us don't even think about.
- 21:55Speaker 2: Right, So you're automatically right.
- 21:57Speaker 1: So you're inviting people to begin to become aware of
- 22:03Speaker 1: their senses.
- 22:04Speaker 3: Yes, in intentionally become aware of your senses. And then
- 22:08Speaker 3: once you start to do that, you'll start to notice
- 22:10Speaker 3: the little things.
- 22:12Speaker 2: And then there's little tweaks and.
- 22:13Speaker 3: Corporations are doing this now, putting in smell wow, right,
- 22:19Speaker 3: they're putting in senses or sense.
- 22:24Speaker 1: Say that's because people are different, right, people like sense peop.
- 22:28Speaker 3: People are different, So there has to be a neutral
- 22:31Speaker 3: type of scent. It can't be strong, but it has
- 22:34Speaker 3: to be a neutralized scent. Right. So just think about
- 22:39Speaker 3: going into a store and you know how some stores
- 22:41Speaker 3: have sense oh, you know, like overly perfume sensor, you know,
- 22:46Speaker 3: and you're like, oh, and some people say, oh, that
- 22:48Speaker 3: feels good.
- 22:49Speaker 2: Some people may not. Well, the majority have to say.
- 22:51Speaker 3: It feels good because they want people coming back in.
- 22:55Speaker 3: But it it becomes part of their brand. But also music,
- 22:58Speaker 3: you know how music is piped in, so there's a
- 23:01Speaker 3: reason to that. But let's take it a little bit deeper.
- 23:04Speaker 3: You know, let's talk about the frequencies. Let's talk about
- 23:07Speaker 3: the vibrations that let's say music, binarial beats are very popular.
- 23:12Speaker 3: There's other ways to measure frequencies and that truly does
- 23:16Speaker 3: vibrate at a cellular level.
- 23:18Speaker 2: And uplift us.
- 23:19Speaker 3: You know, there's negative frequencies. So let's get the highest
- 23:23Speaker 3: frequency we can and you're almost creating a wellness bubble, right,
- 23:29Speaker 3: you're creating a wellness bubble around you so that you
- 23:33Speaker 3: continue to come from a base of high, positive, energetic beings.
- 23:40Speaker 3: So not only are you putting like you're going to
- 23:42Speaker 3: put good food into your body.
- 23:45Speaker 2: Right, you know that going to McDonald's every.
- 23:47Speaker 3: Day may not be the healthiest for you if you
- 23:51Speaker 3: ate a hamburger and French frise every day, versus let's
- 23:54Speaker 3: go for lean meats and salmon and veggies and all
- 23:57Speaker 3: of that. Right, you know that to be true, and
- 24:00Speaker 3: so I want it known to be true. The vibrations,
- 24:05Speaker 3: the sounds, the smells, the censorary things that you incorporate
- 24:10Speaker 3: into your life make a difference as well.
- 24:13Speaker 1: Speaking with Pam Buchanan, she's the founder of Quantum Sense. Okay,
- 24:20Speaker 1: so as we kind of wind down here, Pam give us,
- 24:23Speaker 1: if you will, another leg of the stool in a sense.
- 24:27Speaker 1: You talked about senses. What else do you broach for
- 24:31Speaker 1: these people? What else do you invite them to become
- 24:33Speaker 1: aware of?
- 24:34Speaker 2: So I talk about we all are energy.
- 24:37Speaker 3: Nikola Tesla said that all things are energy and nothing
- 24:40Speaker 3: else matters. So, and I think it was it wasn't
- 24:46Speaker 3: Steve Jobs that Tim Cook said, I manage my energy,
- 24:49Speaker 3: not my time.
- 24:50Speaker 1: Huh.
- 24:50Speaker 3: So let's start talking about energy, and you know, what
- 24:55Speaker 3: is your energy like in terms of just okay, are
- 24:59Speaker 3: you feeling time, tired, excited, energetic, non energetic? But let's
- 25:04Speaker 3: go to a deeper level too and talk about your
- 25:07Speaker 3: energy and how we manage that energy. So I think
- 25:12Speaker 3: also the next box, if you will, is from senses
- 25:17Speaker 3: to energy is where I go.
- 25:20Speaker 1: Now, I could just hear employers going, well, I don't
- 25:27Speaker 1: want people working when they feel like they need to.
- 25:31Speaker 1: I want them working when I want them to work.
- 25:34Speaker 3: You know, yes, I want them to work. You have
- 25:39Speaker 3: to manage through that. I'm a big believer. Yes, absolutely,
- 25:43Speaker 3: you have to put in the effort. You have to
- 25:45Speaker 3: put in the work despite what your energy is feeling like.
- 25:48Speaker 1: Right, right, But.
- 25:50Speaker 3: Don't you want to be more at your higher energy self.
- 25:56Speaker 2: To contribute, right? So what is taking away from your energy?
- 26:02Speaker 2: And how can you manage that?
- 26:03Speaker 1: Yeah? I love this? So do you? I mean, do
- 26:09Speaker 1: you feel this is where corporations are moving toward tours?
- 26:14Speaker 2: I do. I do.
- 26:15Speaker 1: Incorporating these elements and honoring these elements.
- 26:20Speaker 3: It's starting very slow, I'll admit, you know. I think
- 26:24Speaker 3: in the next two years it will begin to trend
- 26:27Speaker 3: a little bit more, but yes, it will be where
- 26:31Speaker 3: corporations will go.
- 26:33Speaker 1: Because it's not just good. I feel like I'm in
- 26:36Speaker 1: a commercial now because it's not just good for the
- 26:38Speaker 1: individual employee. It's good for the company as well.
- 26:40Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's good for the company. Because what is a company?
- 26:43Speaker 1: Right?
- 26:44Speaker 2: A company is made up of people.
- 26:46Speaker 3: So unless you have your people producing at a high level,
- 26:50Speaker 3: you don't have a company.
- 26:51Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, Now, I just want to take a step
- 26:55Speaker 1: back here. When you started reading, you mentioned deepop Show,
- 27:00Speaker 1: but I'm sure there are others you were reading as well.
- 27:02Speaker 1: But how did this feel for you? Did this just
- 27:07Speaker 1: feel like it just makes so much sense?
- 27:10Speaker 2: Yes, I'm home with their.
- 27:13Speaker 1: Challenges along the way. If so, what do they look.
- 27:15Speaker 2: Like in terms of challenges, in terms of what.
- 27:19Speaker 1: In terms of well, you know, you're talking about being real?
- 27:25Speaker 1: I mean that that's to me. I love that statement,
- 27:29Speaker 1: but it's it's it's not always easy, right, It's very
- 27:33Speaker 1: difficult for us to be real, no An, and with
- 27:37Speaker 1: ourselves too. So I'm curious about your own process in
- 27:41Speaker 1: moving through this.
- 27:43Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it it so It's not like I went
- 27:46Speaker 3: and started saying, oh, I'm reading deep hop chroper in
- 27:49Speaker 3: this and elevating.
- 27:50Speaker 2: My being and all that. I didn't do that at all.
- 27:53Speaker 2: You know, it was just within me.
- 27:55Speaker 3: You know, like there's more so how do I engage
- 27:58Speaker 3: with my boss, my their colleagues, et cetera, et cetera.
- 28:02Speaker 2: I was just me.
- 28:03Speaker 3: But then I went back and said, oh, why did
- 28:05Speaker 3: I get that emotion? Because it's all tied to emotion.
- 28:08Speaker 3: Why is that making me angry? Why is that making
- 28:11Speaker 3: me sad? Why did that person say that to me
- 28:14Speaker 3: that way? Is he mad at me? You know, like
- 28:17Speaker 3: it's like, you know, you go through all of that
- 28:20Speaker 3: and then you come back to center and say, no,
- 28:22Speaker 3: that may have been about he was having a bad
- 28:24Speaker 3: day or she was having a bad day. You know,
- 28:27Speaker 3: I have to manage my own emotion. But can I
- 28:30Speaker 3: go back and say that didn't feel good to me?
- 28:36Speaker 3: Is that how you met it? Or you know, did
- 28:40Speaker 3: I do something? You know, let's confront the hard conversations.
- 28:43Speaker 3: So I was able to confront the hard conversations.
- 28:47Speaker 2: And some people may.
- 28:49Speaker 3: Have walked away and said, I, who know its why
- 28:50Speaker 3: Pam's going over that again?
- 28:52Speaker 2: She you know, like that was yesterday. I don't know
- 28:55Speaker 2: what's going on.
- 28:55Speaker 3: But for me, I needed to have that conversation. I
- 29:00Speaker 3: have a successful forty year career. You know, I had
- 29:03Speaker 3: two you know, jobs that were long term, so obviously
- 29:09Speaker 3: you know I did provide value. I worked really hard
- 29:12Speaker 3: to provide value I wanted to get back.
- 29:14Speaker 2: I worked very hard.
- 29:15Speaker 3: I was very loyal to both those companies, right, and
- 29:19Speaker 3: worked for them and took pride in that.
