1:38
I want to say welcome. I hope you keep coming back. And
1:42
just so you know, any show that you don't get to hear live,
1:46
you can always catch on the replay and the archives on Home Times Radio and
1:51
the archives, and I also upload the show on my podcasts on Postcards to
1:56
the universe dot com, so you can always find any shows there interested.
2:00
And I have some really interesting guests, so please check it out. Like
2:05
I said, my guest today's a photographer. I am also a photographer and
2:08
I'm an author, and I have a book. It's titled Postcards to the
2:13
Universe, Harness the Universe's power and manifest your dreams. And I in my
2:16
book, I took photographs of people's manifesting postcards, which are kind of like
2:22
mini vision boards, and when their manifestation became the reality, they shared their
2:29
story with me and I published it in the book. So we have thirty
2:32
manifesting stories in my book along with the photos that I took of their postcards.
2:40
And I have a bunch of writing exercises and fun games, manifesting games
2:46
to play to bring more abundance in our life in the main areas where we
2:51
always would like more abundance, which is love, money, our health careers,
2:55
you know. So there's just so much good stuff in there, So
3:00
I hope you check it out. If you're interested, please go to Barnes
3:04
and Noble or Amazon. You could purchase a book. You can also ask
3:07
your favorite bookstore to grab you one if they don't already have it in stock.
3:12
And I started reading from my book online. I've been releasing probably one
3:19
video a week or about five minutes long. I've been reading the book start
3:23
to finish. So you can also follow along on Instagram, TikTok. I
3:28
post them there and then I share them on YouTube and LinkedIn, so you
3:31
can follow along that way too. And if you do, just let me
3:34
know that you're there, you know, send me a little high a little
3:37
wave that says, hey, I'm listening. I would love that. And
3:39
what I started doing is I vote. Every week. I usually release a
3:46
photo with I call it a magical message. It's usually on Mondays with an
3:50
affirmation. And since I started reading the book, I decided that I wanted
3:57
to rephotograph all of the postcards that were in the book. Yeah, and
4:03
I've been having a lot of fun doing that and it always has an affirmation
4:09
along with it. And this week's is Healing through Art. And a painter,
4:15
Barry, contributed his postcard to my book and his story is all about
4:20
healing how art has healed him throughout his life. So you can check out
4:25
his story if you, you know, are interested, and I hope that
4:28
you are all right. A couple of announcements I want to make, and
4:31
I've been mentioning this if you listen to me on the regular. I have
4:34
two workshops. One is a rotating workshop. It's called Manifesting through Gratitude.
4:41
You know, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, a visual journey and it runs five weeks
4:45
on Thursday evenings six to eight pm Eastern time. It's online. Of course,
4:49
there's not one tomorrow because it's Thanksgiving. But we're going to be talking
4:55
about how to use gratitude to focus on what we all already have, using
5:00
gratitude, excuse me, to bring in more of those things that we want.
5:04
But the interesting component about the workshop is I'm going to be using and
5:12
helping you use your camera phone as a tool to manifesting. So we're going
5:16
to be photographing during that workshop also. And the other workshop I have will
5:25
be a one day workshop. It's January sixth, one to four pm and
5:30
Eastern time, and it's titled put your Wishes to work and manifest the life
5:34
you desire. And we're going to be making a manifesting postcard in that workshop.
5:40
So it's going to be a lot of fun. It's great to start
5:42
off the new year, like, what do you want to bring in in
5:44
twenty twenty four? Right? I can't even believe that we're already at twenty
5:47
twenty four, So what is it that you want to bring into your life
5:50
next year? So if you're interested, you can check out I have more
5:56
information on those. If you go to Postcards Too theuniverse dot Com and you
5:59
go into Workhio, you'll see both workshops and I hope to see you over
6:01
there. And if you like Facebook and you like public and you like groups
6:05
that are interesting, I have one called Postcards of Love and the only thing
6:10
that is shared on that group it's public, is funny, uplifting stories.
6:15
I always shared lots of animal videos because I'm such an animal person, so
6:17
I like to keep it light. We want to keep it light. There's
6:20
a lot of heaviness already in the world. We don't need. I don't
6:23
need to add to that any more than there already is. So it's all
6:27
good stuff, all right. So to get to my guest today, I'm

7:56
d j A NYS. Welcome that janis. Thanks for being here with me
8:03
today this time. I'm so excited about you. I'm excited to talk to
8:09
you too, because we're very aligned in what we're doing. And also,
8:13
you know, as a fellow photographer, and I was looking at some of
8:16
your photos. They're beautiful, by the way, I really enjoyed. I
8:20
really enjoy them. So yeah, we're very aligned in the kind of work
8:24
we're doing, and we both use creativity, you know, as far as
8:28
manifesting. So how did you kind of get into this the manifesting game?
8:33
Like what were you always like into intuitive to that you were the creator of
8:39
your own reality? Or is that something you discovered later on, like as
8:45
you were, you know, going in your life. Yeah, I grew
8:50
up very religious Pentecostal. Oh okay, so yeah it's pretty religious. When
9:00
I tell the story, I laugh at myself because I'm just like, how
9:01
did I even get here? Yeah, that's how it always is. Okay,
9:07
And so no, no, no, I'm here. Can you hear
9:13
me? Yeah? Go ahead. Yeah, I didn't mean to cut you
9:15
off. No, you didn't lose me. I'm still here. Go ahead.
9:18
Yeah, I want to give you the platform to tell us your story.
9:22
Okay. Well it's always funny to just even think back on it.
9:26
But very very religious. And it's interesting because I was just when I was
9:33
doing my photo shoot yesterday. I had a photo shoot and I have this
9:37
little doll. So my studio look kind of mystical. But I'm a little
9:41
toy and it's a little creepy because it's an old doll, and most old
9:45
dolls tend to have like that, like look about that. Yes, yeah,
9:50
I don't like old doll. I don't like dolls. Is it your
9:56
doll or did your client bring the doll into the shoot? I'm just curious,
10:00
it's your doll, it's my doll. I trust got it and now
10:03
it's vintage because it's from the eighties. Is that my parents thought it was
10:09
demon for sess and they threw it away when I was young. So my
10:15
inner child, I was like, should I buy a should I get a
10:18
pet, or should it get I really wanted to see my inner child.
10:20
And I don't know why this crazy doll out of the blue stowed up in
10:26
my memory, something that I never think about. And I had to tour
10:31
at sea just to find it. And my background is very religious, so
10:37
to the point that if a doll seemed to be posessed by the devil,
10:41
it was going to be thrown away. I got you prayed over, and
10:46
so it was very strict and very scary because in tennecostos. And I don't
10:52
know how familiary you I tell me, if you're familiar with plenty couples,
10:56
I mean, I know what it is, but I'm not familiar at all
11:01
with the teachings, Like I don't know about how strict it is or you
11:05
know, stringent. I don't know anything about that. Okay, So basically
11:09
it's like very extreme Christianity, but like women can't shave their legs or do
11:15
anything that that seems seductive. You can't listen to music from the outside,
11:20
the outside world. It's pretty insulated. Yeah, I think being aesthetic in
11:26
Puerto Rican was still made it really fun because going to curch like a party.
11:30
But when you get out of the world and you look back, you
11:33
go, whoa that was? That was not okay? Like very controlled?
11:37
You know, yeah, sure, sure, Well it's not surprising to me
11:41
that having that background would make you question, you know, well, what
11:46
else is there? Like what else is available to me? You know,
11:48
like this can't be the only way, right, That's what we always think.
11:52
Weird. Yeah, even being indoctrinated, it was too weird. I
11:56
was like, it feels like God hates women. It feels like the Devil's
12:00
get women. I'm like, what's going on with women in the Bible?
12:03
Like, I don't I'm a woman. I don't understand. I don't feel
12:05
much different than my brothers. I don't feel like they're better. Like I
12:09
just didn't, did I even as a child, it just did not make
12:13
It didn't resonate with you. Yeah, so what so what's the story with
12:18
the doll? Did the doll make you re examine your inner child and that's
12:22
what like, was the dog representative of that to you? Right? So
12:26
it was like a few weeks ago and I was doing have you ever read
12:31
The Artist's Way? Yeah? Oh yeah, yeah I haven't. I haven't.
12:35
And the Workbook, Yes, I've done that. I used to do
12:37
the three pages all the time. Yeah, h every morning, yeah yeah,
12:43
yeah, so I had. I had kind of just gotten to the
12:46
end of it, and it was kind of like, I think it was
12:48
an exercise. What it was actually telling you to get, like something insignificant
12:52
for your interview, could have been like a stone of course, you know,
12:56
crazy Gemini. I was like, well, I'll get a stuffed animal,
13:01
I'll get this, and I just nothing. My inner child was like
13:03
nope, And so that's where this story comes from. But it's also like
13:07
regaining that power because as a child in a control environment and with the ignorance
13:13
of my parents, like they threw away my toys. So as an adult,
13:18
I'm forty five getting it's all a little funny and creepy for my kids,
13:22
but it means so much for my inner child. And believe it or
13:26
not, it's a healing tool. It's sitting in my in part of my
13:30
office and I look at it and it's almost like I'm giving my inner child
13:33
all the toys that kind of you know, like they all they got all
13:39
thrown away. And you know, side note, I don't even remember playing
13:43
that much as a child. I was felt like a mini adult and I
13:46
was like, I think that it was because of that moment, like it
13:50
suddenly was like toys are bad. This is not a ta for me.
13:54
Yeah, so you're a c Yeah, and well it is interesting and it's
13:58
interesting to me as a creative person because creativity, especially as children, equates
14:05
to play, right, We get to be playful when we're being creative,
14:09
you know, as a photographer. Right, So if your family was so
14:13
strict and and it was frowned upon, of course that that was like that
14:20
was taken from you as a kid. So it's not surprising to me that
14:24
that you would use that doll would be representative to you. Like those dolls
14:28
creep me out though I don't, I don't, I swear they always have
14:31
they always have since I was a kid. I remember getting a porcelain one
14:35
from an uncle and aunt and I wouldn't put it in my bedroom and my
14:39
mom had to put it in the living room because I'm like, I don't
14:43
want that in my now. I'm afraid it's gonna come to No, I
14:46
don't like those little dolls. I never did, though I never was as
14:52
an adult creepy nose were creepy? My doll is it looks like God it
14:58
was called the ice cream dolls. He's not creepy at all. But oh
15:01
that's good. So my daughter sort of creeped out. She's cute, she's
15:07
adorable. But I know what you're talking about. And I was like,
15:09
oh, no, that's from like the nineteen sixties. Yeah, No,
15:16
it's funny that you said the eighties is vintage. Is the eighties considered vintage
15:20
now? Because it is? I grew up in the eighties. Oh my
15:24
god, I believe. Oh my god, I can't believe the eighties.
15:30
Well I do see it on Turner Classic Network that movies from the eighties every
15:33
once in a while, and I'm like, oh my god, no,
15:35
that's crazy. I know it's insane, but I want to talk about.
15:39
So, how do you use manifestation and the law of attraction in your own
15:48
success? In your own you know, doing what you really love to do.
15:52
How are you utilizing like what tools do you use? Or tips or
15:58
techniques, like what are your technique? Yeah? Okay, So because of
16:03
the crazy like feeling so restricted in religion, I definitely wanted once I was
16:07
able to go to college, to be in the arts. So it was
16:11
like, I'm doing something artistic. I thought it was going to be a
16:14
fashion designer. The photography, photograph. I took a photography class when I
16:18
was twelve, you know, like summer school thing, and then I just
16:22
became the photographer for the family. So it was almost like, well,
16:26
this is already my job. Might as go make it official when I went
16:29
to college. And I've always after you know, kind of releasing myself slowly
16:33
from religion. I always was still spiritualized, was still speak I even still
16:40
you know, believe in God, and so something didn't make sense. I
16:42
was like, I don't know, but the creativity, I think that became
16:48
so important that I wasn't really willing to do anything else unless it was creative,
16:53
Like I have gotten to that point in my life. But I was
16:56
like, okay, I died in photography or art or painting. I just
17:00
photography was so necessary at that time, and that he for me to make
17:06
money and do something fun because you know something that you know, like a
17:11
doctor, a teacher, which is you know what you know. My parents
17:15
would encourage because it's so stinct, but I was like, I'm not interested
17:18
in tape, right, you know I want you were looking, You were
17:22
looking for something that would bring you joy. So do you find that it
17:26
has brought you? Like more clients? Do you do you? Like?
17:30
We first of all tell everybody what kind of photography that is your preferred,
17:34
Like everybody does something different, like what do you like to photograph? So
17:40
when I went to school, I did it. I knew I wanted to
17:42
do fashion photography because when I was young, as a teenager, I wanted
17:47
to be a fashion designer. So I was like, pay clothes enough,
17:52
I'm in the I'm in the residence. It's fine. And so going from
17:56
fashion photography in to branding and personal branding, which is what I do now,
18:02
it just seems like a natural progression. And the reason I do personal
18:07
branding for spiritual women and mythics is because I also was going into that direction.
18:14
So I couldn't at some point, I couldn't separate my spirituality from my
18:18
creativity, right, I just couldn't find a way to do one or the
18:22
other, and sometimes I wanted to do just like spiritual counseling. Currently,
18:27
right now I'm working on a PhD in metaphysics, so that's very important to
18:32
me. But as I could never stop doing photography. So when you say
18:37
personal branding, would you justct for for those who don't understand, what do
18:41
you mean by foot photography and personal branding? For people are like, well,
18:47
I don't get what she's talking about. Like, you're not talking about
18:49
just doing a headshot. That's not what you mean. It's not like a
18:52
corporate photograph that you just need your Oh I need my headshot done for whatever
18:56
and on my website or my business card or yeah yeah, yeah, it's
19:03
something more than that. So can you explain that to us? Absolutely?
19:07
And I love to use the term business photography because as soon as you understand
19:11
that, it's simple with business photography. The idea of branding is to bring
19:18
story, the story of your brand, the story of your business or service,
19:21
what you do, sometimes the story of your mission. I know I
19:26
have women that you know, they retail at cards and they do psychic stuff,
19:29
but their mission is for healing homelessness. So the story has to be
19:36
told in a way in this world that's so quick and fast, and we
19:38
have social media that's like thirty seconds long. Even though video is the fastest
19:45
converting type of content where people feel resonating, they get engaged, photography is
19:52
the fastest stopping one. It's the wrong stoppers. Take three seconds to get
19:59
into a video, but it takes fifty five milliseconds to look at a photo.
20:06
Yeah, so it's fine on a very unconscious level, it's very powerful.
20:11
Go ahead. No, I was gonna say, well, I totally
20:14
get that because I do do some videos, but I prefer still photography.
20:19
I still do you know, as a photographer, I like stopping and looking.
20:26
Yeah, yes, because video everything that requires time is so important now
20:34
nowadays because I'm so little bit because we have so much content to consume,
20:38
so we have to be content shorter so we can consume more of it.
20:41
And so our attention span I think it went from like seven seconds to three
20:48
seconds and got over its head. It keeps shrinking and advertisers keep finding psychological
20:56
reasons to trap us. But just like our shadow, sophisticates a sophisticates,
21:03
So we learned the tricks. Also, you know, it's not like you're
21:06
always schooled. We're full temporarily, but then we learn and those advertisements are
21:11
not effective anymore. So like catchy titles, right, like you make sure
21:15
you put a catchy title, that's cool. That still requires someone to invest
21:18
time five seconds, ten seconds, and in the world that we're living in,
21:25
those seconds are precious. Well, you know, it's so amazing.
21:30
It's amazing because you say that, because I know you know this. It
21:33
takes so much time to create the photograph and whatever you're going to caption,
21:37
right, how long does it take you? It could take you a long
21:41
time for somebody to stop for three seconds, right, isn't that amazing?
21:45
It's amazing? Okay, go ahead, I'm sorry. I just thought of
21:48
that when you were talking, because oh yeah, it's yeah, it takes
21:52
us a lot of time by a little logic to the you know, just
21:56
a little data. You're just like, wow, this is not I'm not
22:00
a pessimist. I'm an optimist, but we can be we could be realist
22:04
is not a word that I use. We can see the fact, we
22:07
can see what it is that's in front of us without having a negative justments,
22:11
but we can still analyze it and says, well, I need to
22:15
find a way to convey my powerful mission in this world in a world that's
22:21
painting, in the world that consumes content in a different way. Because you
22:26
know, like the intro thinks so much for that intro, I was like,
22:29
oh my god, that's me. Yeah. No, well, your
22:36
bio is, like I said, it resonated with me because of the work
22:38
that you're doing. So when your brand, when you somebody comes to you
22:42
with their brand, you want to tell their story. There's something in the
22:47
photographs you want to like, you want people to get to know who that
22:52
person is by your photos, right, yeah, right, absolutely, because
22:59
we're not think anymore like when we were during the like pre COVID and the
23:06
COVID, Because what happened during COVID is that intensify of fear all over the
23:11
world, and that intensity makes people vulnerable to all kinds of advertising, sales
23:15
and techniques. So where you see a lot of online millionaires, it's because
23:22
you know, some people capitalize on the fear that was happening around the entire
23:26
world. All of us were like, what is going on? Sure that
23:32
any more vulnerable? Yeah? And I don't know. I mean, I
23:36
can't speak for you, but for myself, I don't want to capitalize on
23:41
that. That's not my mish personal mission, you know what I mean.
23:45
I don't want to capitalize on the fear. And when I talk about manifestation,
23:49
it's not to for people to focus on like, oh I don't have
23:52
this, and no I don't have that. It's to look at what you
23:56
already have so that you can magnify that, magnify what you are already love
24:00
about your life and what you already have. And I just like to help
24:03
people, give them some maybe tools and tips that make their journey to doing
24:08
that is a little easier. They not have to be painful, right because
24:15
a lot of times we learn through pain. We don't always want to do
24:18
that. We learn a lot through mad Yeah, but we're not as vulnerable
24:26
anymore, you know, And that is the buying behavior, so you know,
24:32
it's a little bit harder. The market has sophisticated, so we don't
24:36
want to trick people. We're going to tell them a story that is meaningful
24:40
to them, and that happens to be fifty milliseconds And unfortunately that's the science.
24:45
You can't do anything about that, but we have to. I believe
24:48
that if you have a powerful, powerful message to share, then in your
24:52
messages to learn to learn how to engage people in a way that makes them
24:56
interested and helps them out. Hmmm, that's interesting. So how do we
25:03
tell a story in under three seconds? Like? How do we how do
25:10
we do that without it feeling? What's the word I'm looking for? Like,
25:17
you know, like the best way I can describe it is, you
25:19
know, when you have a list in front of you and you have a
25:22
million you have to check off, like I have to do this and I
25:25
have to do that, right, So we're putting that energy that we don't
25:29
really want to do it, but we have to do it into it and
25:30
that's not what we want to do is creative people. We want to be
25:33
inspired by what we're sharing and offering to other people. We want to feel
25:41
good about it, and we created it out of joy. So we wanted
25:44
to bring joy. So yeah, like, how in the heck do we
25:48
accomplish that in you know, what did you say? Zero point fifty five
25:52
milliseconds in fast? Yeah? Two three seconds to have video seconds for the
26:00
video of the whopping three seconds Melissa, is not that hard. It's not
26:07
this requires you to be an integrity. Yes, I'm glad you said that
26:12
it does require you to be in integrity. And I think that, Yeah,
26:17
people can feel that energy of that. I think they really can.
26:21
Yeah, we have to know that energy leads, energy leads, and even
26:25
though there might be some people out there taking advantage of others, it's because
26:30
they're in the same frequency. So we have to be so so extra careful
26:36
to remain pure of heart and with good intentions and in alignment. And that
26:41
is it has to be priority because the ego is also sophisticated, and take
26:47
the trip us up we can. We can believe we're doing something good and
26:49
then oh, oh you're not. So we ourselves from being blinded from our
26:56
own potential negativity. So yeah, let's talk more about that. I just
27:03

30:04
on creativity, abundance and prosperity, and you will be introduced to the coolest
30:08
guests, trailblazers, mystics and creatives who enrich our lives. Hi, and
30:21
welcome back if you're just joining me today. My guest is at Janice Morrero
30:26
and she is a photographer and she teaches spiritual entrepreneurship. She helps us with
30:34
getting our messages out there right and a unique and a creative way in integrity.
30:44
So how do we use the principles of the law of attraction and manifestation
30:48
to transform our brand so to speak? Well, it's the same exact work.
30:56
I realized that when I was doing branding, I was asking people questions
31:00
that were really important, like you know, their practices, like what's important
31:07
to them, their values, things that in branding we're asking people like colors
31:11
and symbols. But in magic, we're creating sigils, and we're creating symbolism
31:18
around our homes. We're using affirmations. And I just like I said,
31:22
I suddenly found myself where I didn't know where. Once one ended and one
31:26
began, and the world was exactly the same. It all always began the
31:29
sense. It began with your identity and in metaphysics, your identities who you
31:34
really are, which in my opinion, is the divine. And in branding,
31:40
your brand, identity is that message that you're putting out there, the
31:45
people you're reaching exactly who you're talking to. Your values and the colors and
31:49
the symbols, right, they are also the same thing. They kind of
31:52
say that sad that signal out and say hey, where are my people at?
31:56
Will these pretty colors because the people who are in that vibration are going
32:00
to be like, I love that brand. So it is definitely vibrational exchange.
32:06
But we are human beings and in the world of senses, you know,
32:08
the eye is king. Beauty has so much value. That's why we
32:14
go to museums. That's why when we buy a house and it has a
32:17
front view of the beach in Marrowville, it's millions and millions of dollars.
32:22
You're not buying the house, you're buying the view, and the view was
32:27
made by God. So I want people to understand that to be credible,
32:32
especially when you are, you know, considered like a person that does magic
32:37
or spiritual a little bit different. I want you to be seen as credible.
32:43
I want people to see yourself and say, wow, I feel like
32:46
that person can help me. Because we have a lot I work a lot
32:50
with psychics, So there's a lot of three hundreds with psychics, right,
32:53
a lot of dms like I feel connected to you and all sub really tarnishes
33:00
the image of the real psychics who sometimes do remote viewing with the military,
33:07
you know sometimes, I mean we have Abraham Hits who channel is a powerful
33:10
message for the world. So it gets tarnished sometimes, and my desire is
33:19
to elevate that so it's celebrated and so it's seen as credible and not like
33:24
you know, hous focus pray to people. Right. So that's why you
33:29
help people find their unique message that they can share with the world. Right.
33:35
You help you help brands find their because we're all so unique, and
33:38
we all have a different story to tell, and some of us tell very
33:42
similar stories, but we each tell it in our own way that I may
33:46
resonate with some people and you may resonate with different people, right, because
33:51
we're we each tell our story differently, but our message may be the same.
33:54
It's just on how we tell it and who resonates with that. So
33:59
how important part to know about who you're serving and not be kind of self
34:05
serving? So what would be a good question for anybody listening to ask themselves
34:10
if they have something, a brand, a product, something that they want
34:16
to offer to people, Like, what would be a good question for them
34:20
to say? How do I share this? Or how do I market this?
34:24
I hate the word market Like I wish we could come up with a
34:28
better word than marketing, you know, because it always makes me think of
34:30
like car salesmen, you know, like as soon as you walk in,
34:34
like you get hit with like you know, sorry to all the car salesmen
34:38
listening, but you know, like that aggressive like like you know they're pitching
34:43
you, Like you don't want to feel pitched to all the time. So
34:46
what what should I ask myself if I want to share my message, like
34:51
to make sure I'm with an integrity? Yeah, I would. I would
34:55
ask if you got no benefit at all whatsoever from the work that you do,
35:02
and it would only be of a benefit, you know, what would
35:06
you do? Because I think that's so much of our culture and just living
35:09
in just the modern society. We're not exempt from fear and a lot of
35:15
times that fear triggers that self protecting and acquiring material things, and you know,
35:22
we all know that there's no real safety in that. But I think
35:25
that the best thing that I teach people with the same movement, which is
35:30
more about creating a focus on healing the world. And I'm really being a
35:38
big about it, like I have a personal mission that if I could eradicate
35:44
domestic violence from society, and it's so big that I don't know how it's
35:50
going to happen, but I can only just like to a mission like so
35:54
all the same, all the glory, all the podcasts, has absolutely nothing
35:59
with me. I know I'm a representative because that's the nature of the work,
36:04
but it's really I just cannot wait till I have you know, so
36:08
many people who are saying, you know, you help me get out of
36:13
domestic violence. I don't know what to do. I don't know who's talk
36:16
to, you know, like not relying on the government or anything like that,
36:21
but having that internal manifestation ability using creativity, because you have to sometimes
36:30
creativity is all you have. I talk to women who are undocumented illegal women
36:34
who are in the mestic abuse relationship, what are they going to go through.
36:38
Right, But the imagination, it is something we all have and visualizing
36:45
could be just the biggest, most powerful thing. So if you could be
36:50
selfless in your pursuit and imagine that you're actually fixing the world, that you're
36:57
actually taking on a big, powerful, beautiful can you draw inspiration from that
37:02
and it doesn't matter what you sell doesn't change. Yeah, yeah, I
37:08
can see exactly what you mean. I get it because if it was if
37:12
I could offer everybody in the world to know and feel seen, validated,
37:17
heard, and grateful in their life, then I know the world would change.
37:21
Because if I'm grateful for my life, how am I going to hurt
37:23
you? I can't hurt somebody else, right, I can't because I'm happy,
37:29
joyful and grateful. Right. So if we all felt that way and
37:32
looked at their own life and felt grateful for what they have around them,
37:37
the love that they have, and whatever it is they're doing, it doesn't
37:39
matter, then the world would look different. So, yeah, I know
37:43
what you're saying, because if I could do that, if I could offer
37:46
and teach people how to do that, then I would. Yeah, everything
37:51
would start to shift. Everything shift. And if you think about it.
37:55
It's not that big a deal. You're just teaching people, yeah, to
37:59
be grateful. And it's not like we're not offering a magical pills, some
38:02
very very thing. We're offering something that's concrete and solid, that scientific evidence
38:09
that just being grateful makes you make better choices because you're happy. When you're
38:14
happy, you have more access to better decisions. Well, yeah, and
38:19
you're literally and it raises your vibration, like you mentioned Abraham Hicks, Like
38:24
that's what they talk about, raising our frequency, raising our vibrations. So
38:30
gratitude is high on the vibrational scale compared to like guilt, shame, anger,
38:37
you know, fear, all those things which are low. So we
38:38
attract more of those low frequencies where we want to attract higher frequencies. And
38:45
that's what we all. We all want that. And you talk about like
38:49
you do these what do you call them energetic activations? Is you're part of
38:54
what you do? You like to do? What is that? How do
38:57
you explain how they work? Yeah? Absolutely? Yeah, So doing a
39:01
photo shoot just because I have done so many throughout the years, and you
39:07
know, each each tession is an experience. But as I started to work
39:10
with more people who are in the law of attraction, manifestation and energetic Uh
39:15
huh. I noticed that while we were in session and the way that I
39:21
directed them through the directions actually created these crazy breakthroughs and yes, so I
39:29
started to really get these downloads around how when you not only brand your vision
39:35
and branded for the world in a very beautiful way, whatever feels beautiful in
39:38
a ling for you, but like you're absolutely almost like able to break into
39:45
that that that frequency into the future because a photo shoot could be quite a
39:50
pampered experience. It could be like you're leaning back and you're receiving the spotlight
39:55
and you're allowing yourself to be seen and there's not thing you can do.
40:00
Is is that post? You know, no matter how uncomfortable you are,
40:01
you're still being like held. You realize that a lot of people, it's
40:07
almost like they grab that future self and they just literally brought it to this
40:13
very present moment. And I was like, it's like you meet your peers
40:17
yourself because you're dressing how she would dress, you're speaking, and you're feeling
40:21
into that and I'm bringing that that energy because I want you to be at
40:25
your highest calibration because I know that's what's going to get captured in the image.
40:30
So the reason I do metaphysical branding is because if you if you're in
40:37
a negative mood, Okay for example, well you know I am I'm sure
40:40
you have a lot of listeners, but I'm a woman. So speaking of
40:44
women being in front of the camera is nerve breaking. Yes, it is
40:47
so many body issues, so many issues, you know, it is nervrasing.
40:52
And so when you are scared of how you look, you are even
40:59
if you look beautifull, but your your hair and your your mind is going
41:02
oray, I feel ugly, I'm fat, I'm I don't care how beautiful
41:07
your images look. To energy that is being emitted is going to put people
41:13
off because the energy is Yeah, So what I need to do is to
41:20
break people out of thinking about themselves and thinking about their clients. In my
41:23
second, you're always constantly thinking about the works and the love that you're giving
41:28
your clients. So when I capture you, you're I literally captain you the
41:32
love you have for those who are going to see these images, so they
41:37
can like receive something from that. So that's where we had the fifty millisecond
41:44
because we do energy work and we do it very intentionally. So yes they
41:47
look gorgeous, Yes you're having fun, but at every step of the way,
41:52
we're thinking about how we're serving the collective in the name of the divine
41:58
always, always oways, Oh my god, I love that so much.
42:01
I never, as a photographer, even thought about that. But because I
42:07
do do portraits sometimes, I don't very often anymore. I used to do
42:10
them a lot more, but I never thought about your capturing your future self.
42:16
And it's like, it's like could be used as like such a wonderful,
42:22
energetic thing for manifesting, and I cannot believe it never dawned on me
42:29
like that. I love that I got that from you. I love that
42:34
I'm gonna look at it different. I call it becoming the dream board.
42:39
Oh I love it. I wish that I would have you photograph me if
42:43
you live closer, because as a photographer, and I have done many self
42:46
portraits, I have a body of work that I do, the self portraits.
42:50
I don't talk about it that much. It's on my melissacaprio dot com
42:54
photography site. But when you photograph yourself, it's very different. But it's
42:59
nice to find another photographer as a photographer who can capture you the way that
43:07
you want to be captured. So too bad we don't live close. So
43:10
where are you in California? I am? Yeah, I can tell by
43:15
your numbers, so yeah, see that. Yeah, I'm in Florida,
43:17
So Florida. I'm in Florida. Maybe next time I go to California,
43:22
I go to California a lot. So maybe next time I'm in California,
43:27
off I go to Florida. One of my I have three kids, and
43:30
one of my boys lived in California, I mean in Florida. So we
43:37
might read up. Yeah, we might. We'll have to talk after the
43:40
show about exactly where we are. No, that's really but I love what
43:45
you said about that, because as somebody who thinks about manifestation all the time,
43:51
and I'm I'm looking at me. My project with postcards is about helping
43:57
other people facilitate and and be helping a co creator with them to help them
44:04
facilitate whatever it is that they want to bring into their life. So like
44:07
I've been photographing the postcards right, these these affirmations, and I haven't really
44:13
been focusing on portraiture necessarily. But now that you have planted that seed in
44:20
my head and when I do as I will, I'm sure again I'm going
44:25
to think about it differently that I love that you do that in your sessions.
44:30
Yeah, I think that for our work to be I think our work
44:34
is sacred sharing goods, like literally sharing good news, making people feel optimistic,
44:39
having hope, delivering faith tools. All these things are like sacred,
44:45
They're important. I was talking to some friends and I was like, if
44:51
you write a book and it's not a bestseller, but only one person's readment,
44:55
and it came through their lives and they just come up to you and
44:58
be like, I read your book change my life, Like, wouldn't that
45:01
be enough? Wouldn't that be enough of a reason to write the book because
45:07
if it was your life, you already have the benefit you did it,
45:12
So book, it's like, how do we give back and not try to
45:15
get famous? I love talking about saying because it makes such a like like
45:22
people who are really uncomfortable by that term might not have an ego, and
45:27
I'm just like, no, we let the ego help us get the same.
45:30
But the ego is never leaving ego's just a little helper that makes some
45:35
validation sometimes at time. Yeah. So, wait, so you're saying that
45:40
thinking about being famous is not necessarily a bad thing. If there's something we're
45:49
offering, it just depends on where we kind of think about it, right,
45:53
So if it's only for self serving reasons so that you can just get
45:57
elaborate and attention and people can and you know, but you're not really offering
46:02
anything that has a different energy to it, right, is that what you
46:06
mean? Okay, okay, yeah, yeah, and so but I do
46:12
like that it's a little bit of a confronting firm because like, no,
46:16
but it helps me open the conversation because it really just means visibility. I
46:22
really want to make it more clear. It just means visibility with purpose.
46:24
It really just means that you're super intentional about how you show up in the
46:30
world. Yeah right right, Yeah, Because no, I'm glad that you
46:34
mentioned that because it does have a connotation because when I think, oh,
46:37
would I want to be famous, I'm like, eh, But then when
46:40
you say do I want to be visible with an intention? Then yeah,
46:44
that's what I'm doing. I Mean, I have a radio show and I'm
46:49
and I'm doing I'm putting all my stuff out there and I'm talking all these
46:52
people. I get myself on other people's shows. Of course I want to
46:55
do that, right But yeah, so it's it's good that you mentioned it
46:59
that way to look at it, to just take the change the energy around
47:02
the world, the word, because I think sometimes we think of famous we
47:07
see like some people like actors or pop stars or whatever, and it gets
47:14
so much attention and the press never leaves them alone, and their whole life
47:16
is out there and we're just like, well, who would want that?
47:21
Right Like, So it has a different energy to it then, But I
47:24
want to be visible with intention. So yes, that's fame. That is
47:30
fame, though if people recognize me, it is fame, right, interesting
47:35
and same is what's interesting about fame, you know, because I'm kind of
47:38
you know, I'm a you know, I'm a Gemini. So am I?
47:43
I'm a Gemini. I'm a Gemini too. When's your birthday? Oh
47:49
you're early Gemini. I'm June nineteenth Gemini. Yeah, yeah, the interesting
48:00
go ahead, So you're gonna say I'm a Gemini? So I got ahead?
48:02
What was it? I cut you off? Sorry? I feel like
48:07
I lost it. Probably that's what us geminis do. We cut each other
48:10
off in conversation and then we lose our thoughts and we never went out of
48:15
things to talk about. So it's not even a big deal. Never Oh
48:20
you were talking about fame. Yeah, go ahead, Well you are famous,
48:24
and I know that it may feel uncomfortable, but the same is something
48:28
that we all want because it's just simply to be recognized. But the reason
48:34
we want it is it's what makes the difference the more than your platform.
48:38
And you're a podcast, beautiful podcast. And by the way, I listened
48:42
to the most recent one and I was lying to the ground. Yeah when
48:47
she was talking about the UFOs. Yeah that was wild. That wasn't wild,
48:52
she was wild? Yeah it was wild. Yeah, I lloster yeah
48:59
right. But the idea is that the more people that know about this podcast,
49:04
the more people that can share the perspective. That's a good thing.
49:08
Yeah, But that is that is same. Same is a relationship between you
49:13
and the world sometimes. Yeah. The difference is that it is not necessarily
49:16
a one on one relationship because you can can possibly be friends with you could
49:22
even possibly be friends with a thousand people. It would be impossible to be.
49:25
You can't call that many people, you can't text them, so you
49:28
wouldn't really have an intimate connection with that many people. But you can still
49:32
have an intimacy and have a connection and have this relationship that's a little bit
49:38
about the work that you do, not necessarily like hey call me and yeah.
49:44
And a lot of people also think that the celebrities, like you were
49:47
mentioning that, you know, a lot of paparazzi don't want this. I
49:51
can promise you, I can promise you. I can promise you. A
49:53
lot of the parazzi that people don't want they call the paparazzi themselves. It's
50:00
a lot of a lot of stuff. It's just perception. And so yeah,
50:06
there's a lot of people that enjoy the limelight, you know. Yeah,
50:09
there are, Yeah, and some people who are famous and they're they're
50:14
famous in their in their world, for example, a famous violinist. I
50:17
would never know who they are, but in their world they're they're famous.
50:22
Right, So that's very very true. It's not you know, Paris Hilton,
50:29
have Parry Hilton, Paris Hilton. It's a character. So sometimes that's
50:34
why I always like we'll bring it respect to the people. And I always
50:37
feel like you you take the spotlight in that's a very vulnerable and brave thing
50:42
to do because in reality, people could be cool. And if you say
50:46
the wrong thing and make a mistake, you're putting yourself out there. No,
50:51
it's true. Yeah, you put yourself out there. Yeah, you
50:54
put yourself out there. And you know, I try to be I'm a
50:59
pretty open book, you know, Like on my social media, I don't
51:02
share anything too too personal, but I am not I but I'll share on
51:08
the podcast, like with like pictures or something like a lot of stuff,
51:12
but like on the podcast, I'll share, like if I have a guest
51:15
and the story resonates with an experience that I've been through, and if it
51:20
may be painful or even like you know, embarrassing, ill, I have
51:23
no problem sharing it. You know, I'm pretty open because I feel like
51:28
we've all had those in our lives, you know, like we all have
51:30
had those those those moments. And then it also I believe it makes me
51:37
more relatable, you know, because I can understand I'm more relatable, well
51:44
because you went through an experience, well, I know what that feels like.
51:46
I had a similar experience, you know, instead of being like people
51:50
who come up and preach and then they haven't actually gone through the stuff themselves.
51:54
That's always yeah, so what would you, oh, go ahead,
52:00
no, go ahead with the photography. I was gonna say, with the
52:02
photography. That's really also important to note is that because you're a photographer too,
52:08
I know you can understand that, like photography is a skill, and
52:14
when you know, phones and things come out, it's really cool, but
52:16
it should never replaced the seriousness of having that the business right, like maybe
52:24
in America, like the legal, legal stuff, but and for me,
52:28
my soul, it just tells me that I take care and I treat my
52:32
business as something that I'm responsible for. And when I can take selfies,
52:37
I take them. But when I can afford to pay my sisters, you
52:40
know, I also play it forward, right, Yeah, absolutely, yeah,
52:45
no, I agree. Like as a photographer, you know, the
52:50
phone cameras are great and they've gotten really good, and don't get me wrong,
52:54
but when you study photography, it's you really study the way the light
53:01
reflects on what it is you're photographing and how you frame the picture. And
53:07
that's not something that everybody can do. And it is a skill, and
53:10
it really is a skill. And you know, we're I believe we're true
53:16
artists. You know we our tool is the camera. You know, we
53:21
take what we see in the environment and we use our camera to help bring
53:25
it forward for other people to enjoy it right in our own unique way,
53:30
in our own unique vision. Absolute enough. And you brand in this way
53:35
in a metaphysical way, which means you're leading from your soul, from your
53:38
integrity. You never have to worry about competition. You and I could look
53:45
both of us are metaphysical, both of us are photographer, and we would
53:49
never stand next to each other in any amount of competition. We're rooting for
53:52
each other. I'm like, girl, you should try to do this right.
53:57
It's you. You get to own the song. Gives a shift and
54:01
it's so freeing to be in the era of collaboration where you can tell another
54:07
photographer. I don't know about you, but like when I grew up,
54:09
when I went to school for photography, you have to keep your secret to
54:13
yourself and you have to like make sure people didn't steal your clients, and
54:15
it was very competitive. So to me, collaboration where you can just do
54:21
like, here's my secret because you're my secret on you as it looks different
54:25
of course, of course, and if you and I h hat our cameras
54:30
and we're photographing the same exact subject, it would look very different. For
54:34
your picture was like very different than mine, right, and yeah, I
54:37
agree with you. I agree with you beautiful right, yeah, which is
54:44
really really really cool? Is there we only have like a minute? Is
54:49
there anything that you want to share or let people know if they want to
54:52
connect with you. The best way to find you, you know, the
54:55
best way to find me is on my website at Janet dot com adj a
55:00
nys dot com and yeah, and from there then you can find my other
55:05
stuff, courses, classes, you know. And I'm very open book easy
55:08
to connect with. So if you guys reach out to me, I'll be
55:12
so happy to connect. Oh, Janus, No, it's been really interesting
55:16
talking to a fellow photographer and doing what you're doing. And I love I
55:22
love what you said about you know, when you photograph people and the brand
55:27
and you know bringing that visioning forward, like right, like what your your
55:32
vision is bringing that to the to the photograph and the present moment, and
55:37
that is manifesting I love that well. Thank you so much for being here
