Unstoppable Leaders 24524

Recorded episode of the Unstoppable Leaders series (YouTube) featuring host Jorge Gamboa and guest Coach Ambereen. Ambereen, a Pakistani-American family coach and host of the Lead With Intentions show (airs Tuesdays at 12:00pm Eastern), discusses her immigrant family roots, journey into intentional living, and focus on family coaching. She describes a coaching model that begins with individual discovery (often six weeks) then reunites couples for joint transformation (about three months), emphasizes gratitude, forgiveness (including self-forgiveness after an abusive marriage), and practical tools (journaling prompts, future-letter exercise). The conversation also touches on AI as a productivity/helper tool, guest types on her show, and contact details (CoachAmbreen on social platforms).

Hey. Thank you so much, Jorge, for having me.
Yeah, no, it's great to have you here. So tell me a little bit about your story for those that don't know you. How did you get started in all of this?
Wonderful. Yeah. So my story has led me to here right now, where I am a coach and a coach who is super passionate about families. And I would say leading up from my, you know, from my little, little years to. To now, family has been something that's kind of been the brink of it all. It's been the foundation of who I am, how I was raised, and the values that I've really taken on seriously in my life. I'm an immigrant, so I'm a Pakistani immigrant by descent. And we moved to America with, you know, really big dreams for, for, you know, for my own family in making sure that we can carve out the pathway to becoming unstoppable, just like your show talks about. And we've all evolved, you know, every single one of us. My mom, my dad, to my sisters, since we've taken on this journey of being in America and it's given us this opportunity to step into our, our unleashed versions. If I were to say, like, really understanding who it is that you want to be and just show up and march towards that without having any remorse, if you haven't hurt anybody along the way.
Nice. And what, what type of show do you have? Because I know a lot of people are curious.
Yeah. So my show is called Lead With Intentions. It appears every single Tuesday at 12:00pm Eastern Standard Time. And the intention of that show is I'm bringing on guests who are living intentional lives who really have something to charge forth in this world with a mission, with a purpose. And they, they execute actions that are taking them to that purpose and to Living more intentionally with not only themselves and the way that they think, the way that they act, but also in the interaction that they have with their loved ones, with their co workers, with a stranger, you know, that they see at a store, doesn't matter what it is, but really stepping into all of you and knowing that you're becoming more and more conscious as a person to elevate yourself at any given moment.
You know what? I love to go into the history of my guests and figure out, especially from the perspective of how they were evolving their leadership, the way of thinking from that point of view. Can you tell us a little bit about your story and how did you came into that concept of I need to be intentional on the way you're running your life? How did that happen?
Yeah, so, you know, like with everyone else's lives, we run through challenges. We have challenges that sometimes they seem like they're too big to bear. They don't seem like they're fair. It seems almost like, why me, God, why me? And as I began to think more and more, you know, of my own situation, and I got married pretty young, you know, in our culture, in our Pakistani culture, you come kind of get married. 18 to 22 is like the marriage time creme de la creme, but after that you're like a little too old or so on and so forth. So I got married within that time range. And you really don't understand how different people are in the world, especially when you're growing up in a family that's really united and cultivating this sense of unity and connection amongst each other. And so, and my parents, you know, they're. They're intentional humans. They. They're very kind and very generous and very loving and very compassionate and very service oriented. So you would. We also saw. We always saw them doing things because they wanted to, which is where the intentionality part comes in. But when I got married, you find out that not everybody leads their life in that way. You know, that many people kind of just go with the mundane. They don't really prioritize what needs to be prioritized. They don't pause and shift and reflect and change their ways of being to better who they are. And so when I found myself in places where I was like, that doesn't seem right. That's not who I am. Why am I becoming this person? I started to see, realize that there's so much influence that we get from other people around us. And, you know, when I would ask God, like, why me? Why are you doing this to me, I'm not even a bad person. Why are you punishing me? What sins have I committed to get to this point? It was always understanding of know who you are and live into that. But you know, Jorge, I didn't have the courage to do that at one point in my life. And I had also forgotten who I was. So how could I live an intentional life? And then when you go back and you kind of take a pause and really define for me, it was, what kind of mother do I want to show up? As I already know, I'm crushing in this game of being a wife, like, remarkable wife, unstoppable life. Right. In your words, great, you know, sister in law, great daughter in law, all these things. But when I think of myself as a mother, because this is where my true strength came. I didn't feel like I was unstoppable. I felt like I was stopped. And so for me to cultivate and carve out becoming the parent that I wanted to be so that my kids had a successful life meant I had to change. And as I began to change, it was always like, be more intentional. And I am somebody who is a very spiritual person. And for us, the understanding is when you live a life of intentionality, you're kind of in a state of worship because you're surrendering to serving, you know, mankind or serving the creation of God, which is where that concept of intentionally actually evolved into nice.
I love it. So in other ways, all the struggles, when we go through those phases of struggles, we tend to think when you look back at them and you're finally okay, not all of those things that you were blaming and asking, why me? And getting on your knees and asking for help, you realize that all those things were preparing you to make the change that you had to make. Because that is kind of your. Your destiny. Right. You need to become your true self, otherwise you're living somebody else's life on your own body type of thing. How. How have you. What, that was your personal experience now?
Yeah.
How are you helping the world or bringing that experience in what you're doing?
Well, I began a little bit about talking about family. That's my sweet spot. So I have this vision of a world where families live in harmony with each other, where they realize that their bond is the most sacred bond and it's irreplaceable, regardless of whatever life throws at you, people throw at you, and things that happened. That this bond that you build within a family is truly yours because it's very authentic. So when I'm working with parents and children, I really work with them to find out what does it mean to be authentically your family? How are you not like everybody else? What are those values that you're going to share as a unit, which are the foundations and the pillars of how you want to show up in this world? How do you accept each other as you are? Because every six months we're evolving, right? My eight year old kid is not going to be the same kid when they're 12, totally different. So as parents, as family members, we have to evolve with them. We have to change what was and step into what needs to be and then become what is, what is desired or deserving. And so in the midst of all this, I think the most important thing is what my background says is gratitude. And gratitude is the number one predictor of joy and who doesn't want more fun and like laughter and just, you know, blissful, happy moments in life, Every single one of us. Yet in families we don't see that all the time. We see family members sitting in the same room, really not engaging and connecting. So as I think about my own family and how it's been so important for me from the get go, now I pour back into the world working with families and I take, you know, if there's, if they're both parents that are involved, I take both parents on a journey of six weeks alone with me where I'm coaching them and really making them understand, like who are you and what do you want to step into? What are those ambitions that you have? How do you take time and value it and really become productive with it? What is it that you want to leave behind? What's that influence element of life? You know, how are you going to take these courageous, bold moves that are required to, to summon the next version of you? And after these six weeks of working separately, I joined the couple together. And then that's when you launch into greatness. Because now the both of you, number one job is to pour into each other and strengthen that relationship. And there's so much research that shows that the best gift that we can give our children is a healthy relationship between the parents. Now the parents I kind of reminded why did we marry each other or why are we together and why did we decide to have all these kids and why do we not care about each other anymore, even ourselves and worry about the kids so much? Because when we're doing the kids, kids, kids and forgetting us, we're only pouring in a portion of our best selves into the kids, because our cup is unfold, because we don't feel whole, we don't feel ambitious, we don't feel driven, we don't feel energetic. And so when that companionship journey begins, it is a three months of just transformation like you cannot imagine. And at the end of it, what happens is these, these parents or these companions, they become stronger together, which means now they can actually lead their families consciously to be better parents. And also it basically trickled down into all the other relationships as well. Because now they know who they are.
Yeah, because I guess when they go through that big transformation together, that kind of creates that bond. Right. It's like people, were they playing in team sports or do whatever. When you go through a big challenge together, it creates that bond. So when you start working with them separately to find themselves, to rediscover who they are, do you start painting the picture of how you're gonna bring them together later on or.
Yeah. So, Jorge, I think the most important thing is I look at myself as a coach. I'm just, I am a guide. My job is to guide you. And sometimes they're going to be difficult things that you may not realize you're repeating, which I will hold you accountable for and I will call you out for or I'll make you recognize, realize there's like a shift of perspective is needed. But most of the discovery that's happening is going to be happening between the both of them. Let's say the husband is like, no, I want the kids to be homeschooled. I don't want any of that influence coming into the house. I don't want it. And the wife is like, I work a full time job. I can't homeschool these kids. It's not, it's not going to be possible. And that becomes like a friction point. Now when we're working on seeking clarity and understanding the definition, the vision that we want for our family. This is where the work happens. So you kind of make them both realize what they both want and then help them to resolve that solution to be one that's befitting of both of them. Because it can't be one way or the highway. You both are in this together. It's a companionship. And the, the brink of a companionship is like you're cheering each other on. You're listening to understand, and you're really becoming a force, you know, of strength for each other. And that's how you start to resolve problems. Because they will go on their own journey where I'm facilitating the questions or maybe provoking quest, like thoughts that they may not have thought. You know, even something as simple as, okay, well, have you guys thought about each one of your children individually? How would they benefit from this? And the second husband's like, my second will go crazy. Well, crazy being homeschooled because he needs to go outside. He needs people contact now. He said it himself. I didn't. Right. Whereas the mom may say, okay, fine, you know what? My third, she explores too much and maybe she needs that boundary. Maybe right now is not the time to put her in public school because she's in eighth grade. And I think, you know, the stuff that I've seen her doing, maybe it's better that we keep her at home for a year. So now they're talking. I'm listening. And then they actually come up with solutions because it is authentically their family solutions.
Have you dealt with scenarios where one parent is all on board on this experiment, on this coaching, and the other one is kind of okay, but I don't really want to do it?
Yes. So that. I'm glad you asked that question, because I have done that. I have done that where I work with one parent and they're on board. And the kids are kind of part of my mentorship, mentorship circle where we really focus on their mindset and making them realize that they can be really successful human beings when they can reverse a lot of the thoughts that go in their head. And what I noticed is that's probably not the best, you know, recipe for success. In order for us to create the change that's going to stick for a family, it has to be all hands on deck, you know, so if the father isn't ready, you know, then we say, you know what? Great. If you're not ready right now, that's totally fine. When you are ready, reach back out to me. Because this change, change, what I've learned in my own life is it cannot be forced. It has to be welcomed. So at that moment in time, I know as a coach, I cannot add 100 value to that, to that, you know, program, or that individual or that couple, then I will very politely and happily kind of step away and say, you have two choices. Either you reevaluate your commitment to your family and really understand this is what you guys have asked me to come and facilitate and help you do because you want a better version of you. You want to be connected and united and engaged in adventurous and fun and, you know, like, loving and compassion towards each other. If that isn't as high on a scale, you know, weighing wise, then that's okay. You know, when you are there, then reach back out to me and I would love to, you know, pour back into you to make sure that you guys get to the destination that you want to.
Okay, now my head is spinning with all these crazy scenarios. How about when, okay, both of both parents are interested, but one is kind of more at present, knows what they want, where they are in the world, and the other one is about to go into this journey of self discovery because they hate what they're doing, they don't like their life, they're finding their purpose. Because that, that may be a big disconnect. Where they are right there is.
And it goes back to that, that thing that we talked about is they're taking this journey together. Together, which is only going to strengthen their bond. So there's a lot of vulnerability that comes in, right? Because let's say that she's the mom and she's the wife and she makes it seem like she has it put together that she knows exactly how things need to be. But in reality she doesn't even know what she is without the title of a mother and a wife. Where she. When you ask her, similar to me, when you asked me, who are you? I would be like, oh, I'm a mom of three and I'm a wife of blah blah, blah, blah, blah blah. And they're like, no, Ambreen, who are you? I had no answer. Now imagine my partner and I going on that journey together where he's reminding me, you know, if this situation heterosexual relationship we're talking about here, but whatever your preference is, where your partner is reminding you of your greatness, of the untapped potential that they see in you, of the strains that you have, wouldn't that expedite your discovery faster? Because they see you as this rock star, which is why they're with you. They see you like, girl, I'm bringing you. Then you don't have to figure out you got so much figured out. Let me tell you what you have figured out. You have figured out a whole morning routine. I don't know how you do it, how you keep so calm, so collected, getting four kids out the door, packing their lunches and making sure you're giving them lots of love. And they wake up calm. And you do this for me, this for me. Now that that woman that's in this relationship is like, oh, I don't even give myself credit for any of those things. So now you Start to really evolve at a rate that's much faster because the both of you are working on this one person together, making them realize there's just your mind playing tricks on you. You're so much more than you give yourself credit for.
Yeah. It's like you have your number one fan living under the same roof. Doesn't get any better than that. And what. What type of. Of families do you typically work with? From small children or all the way to now? Kids are gone, and we are on our own.
Yeah. So, I mean, I work with any families. Right. Anybody that raises their hand and wants to become better. Because the way I think about it is even if your children are not in the house anymore, the potential thing that you might become a grandfather, a grandmother in that moment in time, this makes you a better grandmother and grandfather. It makes you a better sister, a better brother, a better friend. Doesn't really matter. But when I'm looking at my ideal clients and I'm thinking of those people who can really benefit from my services, it's people who have adolescence as their children, people who have young children, you know, from like the age of 9 to 19, because this is when we can actually shift their mindset and really open their. Their potential to become limitless. Because when they're bombarded with so many societal norms, which they really don't even know how to, like, troubleshoot or, like, walk through or like, dodge, you're teaching them that you, as you are, is enough. And your parents are really taking that time and taking out the resources and doing the work that they need to make sure that they can make you realize that you matter, that you're loved, that you're cared for, that you're wanted. And every single one of us, as humans, that's what we want. At the end of the day.
That makes me remember a few weeks ago, I. I heard. I don't know if it's true, but it really stroke accordingly that if once your kids reach 18 years old, pretty much not like a big student, like 90 of the time you're gonna be spending with them in their life, it's already gone. Because once they. After 18, you're gonna be spending just a few hours here and there, maybe some days, some vacations, is literally nothing compared to the first 18 years. So the impact of making those years as better, as more insightful, impactful as possible, it's. It's huge. It's.
Yeah. And. And I think that is probably something that's more catered for the Western world. Right. I still Think my parents have a big impact in my life, my kids life, my sister's lives. Because we are so close knit, you know, in our culture, just because you get married doesn't mean like just because you leave the house. No, we're like you're always engaged. It was like you're constantly in communication with the phone, you know, whatever, FaceTime, WhatsApp, hurry on, call it in person. And so we really do a beautiful job of keeping our families united and, you know, unified. Can you share something about yourself with me? Because I don't really know you that well, Jorge.
Oh yeah. So that's a tough question. I wasn't expecting it. So yeah, I grew up and I, I was raised in Mexico at around 25. That's when I moved to Canada, to Toronto. That's where I live. A stranger in a strange land. And since then it's been more than half my life here and in, in over all my professional life. One thing that I, I realized is I got fascinated. But what makes people move, what makes people separate themselves from each other? When I used to work in the corporate world doing a lot of different things, my background is technology and one of the things that struck me was how some people whom, some managers, some directors would excel and cross their goals compared to others when they had the same skills, the same abilities. And that's what started my journey on this unstoppable leadership thing that I'm doing today. But yeah, no, that's my fascination is how to unlock your potential. Because at the end of the day we are all leaders of our own life and that is a projection that will be reflected in your work, in your personal life and everywhere. But it all starts with you believing that you're in this journey to be unstoppable.
And what was it that you found that was kind of the underlying theme amongst the leaders who were succeeding.
Now that you mention starts a big part with awareness and knowing who you are, kind of knowing your purpose. And that's what I have done with this show. Right, similar to yours. Well, this show we are in my show, as I have guessed and I hear their stories. The underlying thing that we never mentioned explicitly in the show is how at some point they find their purpose. And once you find the purpose, it kind of things just start flowing from them in all aspects of their lives. And I have seen had guests that are, have accomplished a lot, they were in a position to actually retire, play golf, but they don't, they love what they are doing and they want to continue doing that. So being unstoppable and having that passion means different things for different people. It's just your personal journey on how you get there. Yeah, yeah, but you're my guest. I'm not your guest in the near future when I go to your show. So. So one quick question that. Well, one question that I always ask my guest is, everything sounds good. When we hear all the stories of success and everything is beautiful. But what about those stories that are really challenging, that made a. It took you a lot of effort to overcome them, either personally or for one of your clients. Can you share some of those hurdles?
Definitely. So there's a lot of serendipity, I think, in the conversation today, because my answer is forgiveness. I actually, you know, did a training today, earlier today for my own community and how family, how forgiveness plays such a big part in surrendering the heart and welcoming more into our lives. And it kind of goes back with my intention for today, which is just gratitude. And the one thing that I've learned in my life is I faced a lot of challenges that ordinary people would never even think about. I have been in a relationship. You know, in our culture, we are, you know, like I said, we get married really young. We, as girls, more than boys, are put in almost like, I don't want to say a cage, but in a very small box where we are told and taught who to be and how to be, which is. Which is kind of sad because that's kind of quite the contrary of what the religion teaches us. And so from a very young age, girls are, you know, they're molded to become somebody that they are not even truly that's what they are. And in my own life, what I started to do is I noticed that there's a lot of hurt and pain and trauma that I've gone through with my. With my, you know, with my ex marriage, I would say, and it all began from this understanding that I knew who I was. And then I started to lose parts of me. And those challenges came to remind me to say, hey, I'm brain. Like, wake up, wake up, right? Like, he's being disrespectful on brain. You know, you're the kind of woman who would tell your uncle, which is something that Pakistani girls do not do. Like, they just don't do that. You would tell your uncle very lovingly, politely, by giving him a hug, to talk to his wife nicer. Like, that's what you would do. And your uncle would laugh at you, thinking, like, what is this girl doing? But understood that that was required because the correction was not coming from anywhere else. And here you are. I'm Breen. Letting a man disrespect you so much so that you don't even feel like you're worthy of living. You know, there's so much has happened in my life. When people hear bits and bits and of my piece and stories, they will say that, like, how are you alive? How are you alive? Like, why did you keep going? Why didn't you just, like, end it? Like, it was. It was so miserable. And brain, why didn't you just end it? And when they talk about ending, they're talking about my life, not my marriage. And I had thought many times about, you know, leaving that abusive relationship. Many, many times did I even attempt to do it? Yes. But what I realized is I lived from a state of fear. And so this fear showed up in every single direction in my life. And when the challenges came, like, let's say now he's being disrespectful, and I'm like, oh, you know what? If I say something back, he's gonna scream even louder. And then I'm. I'm already so scared, so I'm just gonna stay quiet. Or when it was like, no, this is the house that we're moving into. We're moving into this house. Because I'm saying it and me not. Not putting up my end of the story, you know, and saying, hey, this house doesn't seem right for our family. You know, it just doesn't seem like the place that I want to raise my kids. Now there's something wrong with it. But to the heart, like, intentionally, it doesn't sit well. No staying quiet in that direction or like, there were so many things. And the challenges that kept coming, you. You know, when you're in an abusive relationship, the challenges in the beginning, they're very small. Like, they're very like, okay, yeah. And then they keep elevating. Why? Because I kept putting up with the behavior and the version of me that I knew she would stop anybody from, like, disrespecting other people, let alone myself. But what had happened was the cultural training came back, the molding came back. Your number one job is to do whatever your husband says. That's how you become a good wife. And remember, you are a good wife, and you're a good wife, which makes you a good daughter. Because if you're a bad wife, then you're not a good daughter either. If not a good daughter, you really can't be a good sister either. In brain. So how are you going to do that? There was so much that was wrapped up in this cultural conversation that I didn't even know where to start. And I didn't even know how I had gotten here. All I knew is I just kept putting up with more and more and more. And at the end of the day, didn't see seemed right. It didn't sit well. Like, if I'm doing all these things that you want, why isn't there a change of behavior that I need to see from you? And what I had understood it to be was I became a huge forgiver of other people's actions and their mistreatment and their disrespect and their dialogue and their condescending ways and their manipulation. For me, that was like second nature. Like, it. It was a thing that I was like, oh, you know, forgiveness. I gotta forgive. And what I began to realize is forgiveness was serving me. It was making me tap into a very different energy and a frequency because it was giving me a sense of freedom. And in the beginning, I would forgive and forget for years. Over a decade, I just forgave and I forgot, Forgave and I forgot. And then the challenges kept getting bigger. And the idea came like, why are you forgetting everything? Forgive it because you want to feel free, you want to be liberated, you want to charge forth as being the best, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But don't forget those things. There are lessons that you're forgetting which are required for you to step into who you're meant to be. And so the forgiveness piece I kept doing, and as, you know, as the relationship kind of came to an end a few years prior to, I had to do a lot of work, Jorge, to forgive myself. I was really good at forgiving other people. Like, literally, it required no effort. And no. It became second nature to me where I would hear the. The worst words coming out of someone's mouth and I'm like, oh, all right. It doesn't faze me. I forgive you. They don't deserve the forgiveness. I'm being honest now, when I think about it, but I forgave them because I had that as a survival mechanism to move forward. And in all of that, I didn't forgive myself because I let someone abuse me. I let somebody take me out of the equation. I give somebody power of my life. I gave someone the control of my heart, and I give somebody the. The ticket to playing with my mind as they wanted and as they saw fit. And I think for us human beings, that is such A challenge to really say, wow, Ambreen, I forgive myself and I set myself free. It's like a daily mantra that I have. I forgive myself and I set myself free for letting someone else abuse the creation of God. Because my soul does not belong to anyone, nor does my body. So how did you let somebody do all that to you?
Yeah, and it's interesting how at some point a lot of people, not everyone, a lot of people come to that realization where you need to be authentic unapologetically to who you are and be aware, unintentional on the decision on how you're acting. But the awareness is, are you acting from a place of fear or from a place of who you really are? And once you start going into who you really are, that's where the love thing kicks in significantly because that's when you start forgiving yourself and others. It's. That's the big domino that makes all the other dominoes. Yeah, that's, yeah. No, I love that. So what are some of the. Okay, I have to ask this going back to your clients. Have you ever had a situation where a couple is working with you and you clearly have to say, ah, these two are like oil and water. They, they don't go together. What do you do in those situations?
I think in those situations it's this beautiful art, right. When we're in a conversation with anybody. Even right now, the art of communication is so tight around this concept of creativity. Right. And I've had situations like that. I was actually talking to a, A, a woman and she was talking about how, you know, I'm brain. Like we were just so in love. Everything was perfect and great and we were marching to forth. And then we got married and he's not the same man anymore and I don't know what's wrong with him. I don't know what's going on. We just recently got married. But it's like a totally different shift in him. I don't even like, even my kids are noticing things. And so I had kind of taken this person and just like taking them and I said, okay, well I want you to just pause. And this exact same thing I would do for that couple is I want you to just pause. And the both of you, I'm going to give you a journal prompt and I want you to just journal. I want you to turn your cameras off, I'll put whatever, 10 minutes on the clock and I'm going to pause the both of you and make you realize, why are you in this relationship in the first place. No one's forcing you. No one's making you. There's a way out. If the way out is better for your lives and the lives of your family members, then take that high road. Yet if you want to pour back in and invest in this relationship because this truly matters to you, and in this moment, you have forgotten why you love this person, and you have forgotten respect for them because of some challenges that you're going through. Then write a letter to them from your future self. Where, let's say the 25th anniversary. I want you to imagine where you are in this anniversary. Who is surrounding all of you. If you have kids, what are those kids doing? How are they helping you with this beautiful moment of yours? What are the things that actually matter? I want you to write a letter to your partner. I want you to really sit down and use the right words, and I want you to feel everything that you're writing, and I want it to come from a place of maybe not love right now, maybe just neutrality. And try to find a joy. Try to find joy in that. Because what happens, Jorge, is when we're stuck in the now, it doesn't get easier yet. When you can paint a picture of a future that they both desire, that they have forgotten about or not, marching towards it really shifts the perspectives and brings back what really is important for this couple, you know? And at first, they might have friction. Like, why are you making us. It's so ridiculous. It's so retarded. Like, why would we do this? And you're like, great. Is it? Yeah, go ahead. You know what? Don't worry about, like, for me, I don't take things personally because I understand that it's not about me, it's about them. And my intention is to serve them to rise from this moment, because it's just a moment. This is not who they're defined to be. And very quickly, when that camera turns off and now they're in a private place where nobody could see them, and they just have a pen and a journal, Thoughts begin to pour in, feelings begin to connect. An imagination. You start to unleash creativity you bring into it. Because right now we're talking about a huge moment. 25 years of being married and actually being happy and wanting to commit to each other. Let's see how you get there. Let's not look at the mud that we're in right now and pretend it's like quicksand is gonna suck us dry. No, let's elevate from that.
Yeah. It reminds Me of something I'm a big fan of Abraham Hicks.
Yes.
And that's 17 seconds trick. Right. To create momentum. We are so focused on the present, on our problems. That is creating such a momentum that it's difficult to just have a different perspective. But when we stop start journaling after 17 seconds, another thought will come in, another, another one. And then you start shifting the momentum on that direction, and that's where you can see things from a different perspective. That is difficult. But, yeah, we need. We need coaches like you to. To help out along the way.
That's very possible. Right. Like, the human potential is. Is unstoppable. It's limitless. So why not tap into that a little bit more?
Yeah, it's. The mind is a mystery. So what Another thing that is happening these days, changing the topic a little bit, is AI. AI is all over the place. It's taking over everyone. What is the impact that you have seen in your practice with your clients? And what do you think things are going in the future?
Yeah. So AI is my helper right now. It helps me take notes. It helps me sense the notes. It helps. Helps me action items. It helps me create, like, you know, beautiful little clips. And so at first, if you had asked me this question, like a year and a half, two years ago, I would say, oh, my God, I'm like, it's this. I'm scared it's gonna take my job. But I don't look at things in life from a state of fear anymore. I try to see, like, what. How is this serving me right with technology. The same thing. Our phones, right in the beginning when they came, they were pretty boring and like, you know, flip, flip, go, and that's it. Now they've elevated so much where people are also consumed in their phones and the people can also be consumed by AI because there's such a plethora of knowledge that it can give to you in seconds. When I'm looking at my own practice, I think AI will actually help me reach my goals. Not. I think, I believe AI will help me reach my goals to a broader audience faster. Right. I think AI is going to elevate my life to simplify things for me, to automate things for me. But AI cannot replace me because what I am bringing is me. Like, I am bringing umbergy. Like, my energy is coming to that coaching session, which is what people are paying me for. People are not choosing me because of the fact that I'm a family driven coach only. There's some connection. There's some Engagement. There's something that I've given to them to make them believe that this, this woman with a high pitch, super high vibe, like, whoa, off the top. This one is the one that we need to bring back aliveness into our family, to bring back ambition, to joy and love and care and really take moments throughout the day to realize how blessed we are. We need that girl. An AI can't do me. It just can't. It's not possible.
Yeah. At the end of the day, especially in this type of professions or things that we do, I think at the end, it's not having a bigger audience, it's finding your soul drive, the group of people that you connect. Because there may be amazing people that we just don't connect for whatever reason, and that's perfectly fine. But with those that we connect, that's where magic really happens. If we can help each other is the, like I call it help me help you, help me help you type of thing.
You got it. That's what it is. Yes.
Yeah. Tell me a little bit about who are the, the guests in your show, because now we know a little bit about you, we know a little bit about your clients, but what's the dynamic in your show?
Yeah. So the guests on my show, they, they vary, they range. Some of them are coaches, some of them are authors, some of them are facilitators, some of them are speakers, some of our entrepreneurs. Some of them are more mindset driven. Some of them are health driven fitness. There is no one way. And I intentionally have done that. When I bring on a guest, I ask myself, does this person have greatness that the world needs to tap into that my community needs to be a part of that. Unleashing their greatness will somehow shift one thing, just one thing for somebody who's watching today. If the answer is yes, and I say, yeah. The other thing that I really rely on is my intuition. Yeah. And you know, God sends people your way and you're like, wait, that person came to me. Great, let me see what I can take. And like. And you, and you recognize that these people, they keep coming and crossing paths with you only because they're authentically being themselves. And that's one of the most important things for me is to bring on people not only who are great, who have greatness, but also individuals who are authentic to themselves and embrace who they are. I think it's one of the key things.
Okay, so this is a challenging question. What's more important? Intentional gratitude or acting out of love and out of Fear. Which one would you prioritize as number.
One quality intentional gratitude of love? I think love is the emotion that wins it because. Go ahead.
My. My next question is everybody? Well, I hear a lot, and I think most people believe that love is the most powerful force in the universe. I challenge that. I say it's hope, but that's. We don't have time to talk about it. Which one do you think is more important, love or hope?
Love.
Love.
Hands down, I think love is the most important because for me, love means oneness. Oneness of all the creation that exists in this world, not in our planet, only in this world. Everything that we see before our eyes, you know, like you are and I are sitting on a screen talking to each other. You know, this is somebody's imagination that came to serve us. That came to serve us. And that came from the understanding of wanting to do more for our own, like our mankind or our own creation. And it all starts and stems from the idea of imagination with a thought. And that's what I think we are as human beings and God's creations. We are all thought that got morphed into something because of love. And so for me, you know, I'm really big on love. For me, hope is a. Is a very different way that I think of hope very differently than most people.
Yeah. One day we have to.
Yes.
Yeah. So tell me, where can people reach you? But before that, what is one final message or insight that you want to leave to the audience? Because we have talked about a lot of things today. What would be the final measures that you think will resonate?
I often remind myself that we all get one life, so design and lead it with intentionality.
I. I'm with you. I recently came to the realization, my aha moment, where I believe that regardless of which religion everybody is, we're kind of a spirit. Right. Then we chose to come into this world with the goal to experience and get whatever experiences out of it, to live it, to enjoy it. And once our time ends in this world, we continue as a spirit in whatever is next. So, yeah, getting the most out of our time here we are living. It goes back to. To what we were talking. Being intentional, gratitude, acting out of love, not of fear. And yeah, I mean, unstoppable. Loving it. So tell us, last thing. Where. When is your show? When can we watch it?
Yeah, so my show airs every single Tuesday at 12pm Eastern Time in the afternoon hours. And it's something that I'm learning to step into more and more because, you know, when you start something new, you're. You're not really sure of where it's going to go. But the more that I. The more in tune that I become with the person on the other side, the more I realize that all of us are connected in, you know, in beautiful energy fields. And it's so brilliant when we can tap into that, you know, somebody else's world for even just a little bit. And for anybody else who is looking to reach me, it's Coach Umbrean across any social media platform, of course. C O a C H A M B E R E N Reach out to me. Tell me what you enjoyed about the conversation here. Tell me how I can serve you. Talk to me about problems you're having with your children. Give me anything. Because it's these small interactions that you have no idea how much they pour back into us to make us realize that, you know, coming here, being courageous, putting ourselves out there shows that there is a reason as to why it's because we have done something good for you.
