#422 How to Call Your Tribe

Flow Dreaming.

It's a show where we talk about the power of your mind to change your world around you, to literally affect the fabric of your reality. We talk about this feeling of hope.

And joy and relief. And that is what being aware of your flow does. It gives you a feeling of power.

Again in your lives.

Oh my God.

You were so on target. You are so amazing.

I can't thank you enough. Breathe. It is the feeling that you bring forward. It is your emotional connection that really sets the tone for what is going.

To be happening to you and for you.

And you know that feeling, when you touch it, it just spreads through you. Thank you for taking my call.

I don't know why I feel like crying. I think I just feel your love.

Of course. And I think I'm gonna get some ANSWERS.

I'm Summer McStravik and welcome to another episode of Flow Dreaming.

That's right, Welco. Flow. Welcome to the flow of your life. Your future, yourself, your expansion, your present, your past. It's all there. It's all energy, it's all information. And that's you. That's it. This physical life that we're experiencing, this day to day process we're going through, well, just shuffling those molecules one step ahead in time after another. This means that when we look at ourselves as these sort of timeless beings, this consciousness just shuffling through time, you really do get a different perspective on what life is all about. And especially how to work that life. How to do life. Please. Why didn't someone teach me this when I was in high school? How to do life. It's about so much more than going through the motions of the things people expect of us. You know, school and marriage and kids and houses and cars and career advancement and babies. Yes, that is huge. All of it. But there's something else. There's a way to live. A method for living that can make the difference between a successful, full, contented, positive, depression free life and a life where you constantly feel like you're navigating against the hurricanes. Where you're always bracing for the next thing to wallop you or your family. Anyway, that is one of the big reasons why I Flow dream. It's one of the big reasons why I got into manifesting and creating. And I'll admit, just like everyone, I got in because I had a pressing, burning desire to fix something in my life, which is usually what leads us there. But this journey is set off in me, has been so profound. And that's why I'm here with you today. That's Why I have been putting this podcast out for the last nine years. Yes. Every week for nine years. Yay. I look back and I constantly ask myself, how did I do that? How is there something new possible to talk about? Because many of you know, I don't often have guests. Very rarely, I've gone through periods where I've interviewed certain select people that I thought were fascinating or sort of could add to the conversation about flow. But by and large, each week I'm just exploring a new facet of the world from an energy perspective. And sometimes I'm riffing, sometimes I'm teaching, sometimes I'm just, you know, flowing or working through ideas in my mind. And you guys are following along, listening. So my love goes to all of you who have been on this journey with me and we're continuing. The podcast is growing and it's getting bigger, bigger than ever. And I continue to love it. It's the week. It's rather the hour each week that I spend. So look forward to. Some of you guys know I record this live. I record this on the fly. There's no notes, there's no post production. It just is what it is. And it creates a kind of remarkable accountability to me. It means that if I'm not prepared to push my thinking each week, if I'm not prepared to grow, it means I haven't been doing my inner work for the other six days of the week. It means I better be prepared in terms of what I have experienced so that I can continually share with you. I love things like that that make me accountable more and more as I grow older, I see a need for that because it's like having a structure or a scaffold. As I've been telling a lot of my students recently, having a structure that you can lean on, that you know is there, it takes a lot of fear. It decreases fear in life. I don't ever sit down in fear before I get on air with you because I know I have structure, I have accountability. I've been pushing my growth. So when we sit and we chat like this, something I hope of good will come from it. So today my topic is how to call your tribe. And we're going to plunge into that in just a moment. First, go take a look@flowdreaming.com if you don't mind. That is the website, my website that underwrites the whole podcast and makes it free for you. If you check out the manifesting store, you're going to see all kinds of gorgeously produced flow dreams these are 15 to 20 minute energy exercises, emotional energy exercises that bring you deep into flow, that help you communicate with your greater self, with source energy, with the universe. They actually each, each one of them creates a template of energy inside you that wasn't there before you did it. They're very strong, they're very effective. They're not meditation. Flow dreaming is its own beautiful creature. So if you want to learn the basics of how to flow dream and what those are and how to use this technique for some of the most phenomenal manifesting you've ever encountered, also on my website there is a page for you. It's called are you new? Or something along those lines. And this will walk you through the process of how to flow. It's a free podcast I uploaded there. You can also visit my blog, have something there called the online learning library, which is a series of articles about how to flow dream. Another great resource is simply to get the PDF version of my book, Flow Dreaming. All of these are either free or absurdly inexpensive. And if you want to continue these podcasts, you know, a certain number of them are free on itunes. You probably saw that, or on Stitcher, some of the other outlets that I have out there or even through my website, look there. But the other hundreds and hundreds of episodes are through subscription and the subscription is super, super, super cheap. Pretty much less than a tall coffee at Starbucks per month. So go knock yourselves out. Enjoy yourself learning this tremendous process of creation and manifesting and flow dreaming. Okay, so that being said, a quick update. MI school has pretty much reached a ceiling in terms of bringing in new students. I'm still accepting a few select ones here and there, but in the whole, it's full and we are ramping up to go. If you missed this year's enrollment, send me an email. If you're still interested, super interested, let me know. And if not, just stick around. If you're on podcast, this will be re enrolling again a year from now. And that might be the point where you say, what is this me school of flow, by the way? M is for manifesting E empathic intuition. We are changing our thinking. We are changing our mindset, we are changing our growth level. We are breaking through patterns and restrictions. We're going to be pretty much new people in about 12 months. So it's going to be so, so, so exciting. That is kicking off anytime. So that's a quick update on that. Okay, let's talk about what it means to call your tribe. This is something I started thinking about actually when I was interviewing students for MI school because I was recognizing, you know, there's a little dance that goes on. Am I the right teacher? Are you the right student? It's a mutual kind of, you know, speed dating in a way. It's kind of a funny thing, but I realized when I was plunging headfirst into it, I wanted to meet each student because I was seeking to create a specific energy within my school and I need a critical mass. I need the majority of my students to embody certain qualities. This is the energy they're going to give to each other, share with each other, that will grow because of their interaction and my interaction with them. When I was seeking this tribe of students, I was looking for characteristics in them that I knew I could work with, that I knew I could sort of tease out of them, like spotting equality and saying, yes, we're going to make more of that. That's so much easier, frankly, for me as a teacher than trying to create brand new qualities inside of people that don't have them to start with. Some of the qualities that I was looking for in my tribe were a willingness to go bigger and a recognition that that really is a state of mind, a recognition that there is a next step, that life isn't just a series of stumbling along, but the next step is something that must be consciously decided on, chosen, taken. A willingness to commit. That is an energy, a willingness to commit, to say, yes, I'm absolutely going to do what it takes. There is no can I? Or maybe, or I hope I will. Those are not energies that work very well when you are a super manifester because those energies all represent an emotion of holding back, of waiting for something more, of waiting for more validation. It's like watching the parade go by without being in it. My school is a school of doers. Now, I have a selfish reason for this as well. One, I already mentioned it. It makes it a lot easier for me to teach. But two, it's become so clear to me over the years that the people you surround yourself with are where you go next. They are where you go next. It's not just who you are now, but where you go next. And I've counseled so many people and we talk about everything together in these, you know, many private sessions I've done over the years. And often, you know, that the topics are, well, my family is this way and they say, don't do this. And my mother was like that. And my sister's, you know, negative and jealous. And I say, you know what? This is this is the family you're in. They're not just showing you who you are now, but, but who you'll be next. It's true. Birds of a feather flock together. When you move into a new energy, a new group of people's energy, you will match them. You will match them. You will. If you don't match them, you're going to fall out of alignment with them and you're going to plop. Fall right out of that friendship group. Come on. We've all had this happen so many times. You know, we meet a new group of people and we're thinking, oh, I wonder if they're going to be my new group of girlfriends. And, you know, you go out for girls night a few times, or maybe you're a guy and you, you know, you're going out watching a game and you think, is this my new group? Am I going to fit? And you can't put your finger on it, you know, what is it? Maybe it's one friend who kind of brought you in. You just, you're not sure. Well, if they're like you, if they're where your next step is, you're going to grow into alignment with that very rapidly. If they're not you, if they're out of alignment, you'll, you'll just watch as it doesn't come together, as it doesn't work out. Likewise, we all have friend groups that are kind of on their way out. Right on their way out. These are the people you used to see all the time. And now you say, gosh, where's everybody been? Gosh, it sure been a while since we got together. And you're recognizing, oh, our energy group is dispersing. We are shifting into new and different alignments. Now this is natural. This has nothing to do with you, your personality, whether something fell out, if whatever. This is a natural process. We are always doing this. So as a manifestor, I think about these things. I think, what's the energy behind this? I see it happening and I think to myself, do I like this new group of people? Am I wanting to invest more with them? Are they who I want to become? Ask yourself, look at your friends. Are they who I want to become? Now extend that. Look at your co workers. Are they who I want to become? Ooh, that's a much more prickly and interesting question. Are they who I want to become? We often feel that our workplaces trap us in. You've heard me tell you before, our workplaces contain a very definite energy. They call that corporate culture. Or your work environment. But there's an energy and it's usually spread from the top down. You know, whoever's running that company, the ethos of that company just trickles down into everyone. And some of us are in very competitive workplaces where people are fighting over scraps. Makes them embittered, makes them not want to help. Are they who you want to become? If so, stay there. If not, why are you staying there? You are probably not in alignment with that. You are probably phasing out of alignment with that more and more every day. Do you take the step of saying, I'm going where I'm back, I'm a better fit again. Look, this has nothing to do with how long it takes to commute or what your pay is or if it's a promotion. This is basic energy. And you know, this stuff rules. This is the stuff that explains why you didn't get the promotion, that explains why you got the pay cut and you're still there or whatever, or why you did get the promotion. You're in alignment. Looking preemptively at your life like this helps you tremendously. It helps you make the jump before everyone else around you even realizes a jump needs to be made. It also gives you that confidence and courage, that inner self knowing and trust that says it's time to start looking. And I don't know exactly why, but I just feel that. I feel that. How about looking at who you want to be in alignment with in your family? Oh, you say, well, I'm even more stuck noticing how I'm taking you through degrees of things. You tell yourself you can't change friend groups. You're like, well, okay, yeah, I can move. I move around there. Just saying, yeah, I get it. I, you know, I should be with the people who I want to be like. I get, I understand. And I say work. You say, well, I don't know. That's a lot harder to pull off. Family, oh, my God, no. I have to just deal with that. I have to put up with that. This is again a pattern in your thinking. You're saying, this is my family. I am stuck with this forever. I am going to have to align to this. They are my tribe. Even though we don't match at all, in some cases, we are a continuous source of conflict in each other's lives. These are your tribe. At some point, you chose them. They weren't foisted on you. At some point. Now you can go back into any belief that you have, any faith, any religion, how you picked your family. But you all came together out of some basic alignment at some point. Now, often this alignment is there because, you know, families are often the stickiest things. You know, they're the least likely to fall apart. You can't apply for a job with a new family. However, your family is there because they're going to help you often work out the biggest things, the biggest traps in your thinking. You're going to provoke each other to the biggest growth. And I will even put boyfriends, girlfriends, spouses into this as well. They will provoke you into the biggest growth. Why? Because you feel you can't get away from them. So you have to keep encountering them. You have to notice your alignment. You have to push each other to move to new levels. It's almost like an agreement with each other because you can't just move off and find a new one. Oh, this is my new family for these five years and the next. Well, I guess you can. Speaking of some people I know who've been divorced five or six or eight times, new family every five years. But generally speaking, most of us, you know, it's sticky. It stays around longer, especially if you have children. So instead of seeing this as something you need to move away from and move out of, another way of looking at it is like this. We're not aligning. How can we better align? How can we. How can I change inside so that your behavior doesn't bother me like it once did? How can I change my expectations for you? Is it my thinking that needs to adjust? If I adjust my thinking with you, I wonder what that's teaching me and growing inside of me that will then apply to the larger world. Because I bet you it is. Because I know I signed up to do this with you. So I'm going to honor that. Instead of fighting it, I'm going to embrace that. Instead of being angry or disappointed or bitter or resentful about it. Going to honor that. Now we're getting into deep stuff. You know, this is like relationships with your dad or people who've abandoned you. You know, parents honor that. You have to honor that. You can't be in a state of continuous anger or betrayal or heartbreak or that's what you're aligning to. Is that what you want to be like? Is that what you want to be like tomorrow? No. Call your tribe. Practice it in any one of these areas that you want. I'm playing with a brand new form of tribe. That's my mi school students, right? They're. They're not my friend group. They're not my family group, they're not even my work group. But they have certain characteristics that I want to be around so much because it's going to bring it out in me and I'll bring it out in them. To be able to choose a group of people who all have very decisive personality and characteristics and energetic capabilities, how profound is that? Right now you're doing this too. You do that when you go to a new church or when you join some classes in a subject matter you love. That's how you come together with people who have similar interests, similar energies that you want to align to. We all do this. Be aware of it, be very conscious of it. Here's something else to think about. Many of you are in a business where you are having to do sales or get clients. You know, you guys who are coaches and real estate agents and, you know, gosh, even, even doctors, even teachers, right? You notice the kind of class you get. They line up with you. It's not fully random. They say, I want her, I want him. That's going to be my teacher. You attract a kind of student, a kind of client around you based on who you presently are. You will match them. You will match that class. And I'm sure you've had experiences where you haven't. And those people or those couple of people stick out. They're like, blink, blink, blink, blink. And you wonder, why did it irritate me so much? Because they're simply not in alignment with the whole. And because of that, they're sticking out. You see them so much brighter there. It's like, you know, the color red and a sea of yellow. Wow, there it is. That's why if you are developing a network of people around you because, you know, for any services, you're an editor, anything that you do, be conscious. Who's my tribe? They're not just random clients. No, this is a tribe of people who match your skill set, who have the same expectations for the outcome of their, you know, work that you have for it when you're manifesting. Here's where I'm going with this. That's where your energy needs to be directed. Here's my outcome for you. Here's the problem I solve for you. To use, you know, marketing speak. Here's the problem I solve for you. Are you in alignment with this? Are we in alignment with this? Now you can see how what I'm really talking about here is ease, ease, ease and flow, right? Fundamental. If you're in alignment, you're in a state of Ease. You're in a state of effortless exchange. There's no resistance. There's no resistance. It flows, it grows, it expands, it rewards. You move into that, you become more like that. Your clients become more like that. That is where I like to be as much as I possibly, possibly can. So growing your tribe is really about consciously creating supportive, aligned groups of people and situations in your life that always support your growth. Always support your growth. Now you can play with this idea. How can I make my family be more of my tribe? How can I make my workplace be more of my tribe? How can I make my friend group be more of my tribe? How can I make my church group be more of my tribe? Tribe? How can I make. Go down the list, who's in your tribe, who's not in your tribe, which places or. Or which groups of people are most out of alignment with you. Do you want to become like them? That's your next question. Do I want to become more like them? Because if I stay there, I'm going to. Either I'm going to slowly become more like them or I'm going to get knocked out of that situation eventually. You know, two things that are not in alignment, they're like opposite charged magnets that just continue to push away from each other or rather the same charge when they push away from each other. So that will happen. And, you know, I love to work preemptively. So look at it now, feel it now. That's what really future planning and future manifesting is all about. Preemptively looking, seeing, acknowledging, sifting through and saying yes to this and no to that. There. Whew. Give you a lot to think about in that little monologue. We have to go to a quick break, by the way. It'll be a fast one when we get back. I will be doing a flow dream with you on getting aligned to your tribe. I mean, doesn't it just sound delicious when you think about it? Like a part of you leaps up and says, oh, yes, God, I could use that. I need that. I'll also be getting to your calls, by the way. Love to talk with you. And I'm noticing, oh, my gosh, I have open lines. It must be because it's a holiday week. So do give me a call. You can find that number on my website, flow dreaming.com or you can try 1-877-230-3062 again, 1-877-230-3032. You can only call that number when I'm recording live, though. Like I am right at the moment, which of course you wouldn't know if you're listening on podcast, but if you're listening live, do call and I'd love to look in you and I'll look in your flow and we'll do all kinds of stuff. All right, we'll be back in just a few moments. I'm Summer McStravik. You're listening to Flow Dreaming.

You're listening to Flow Dreaming with your host, Summer McStravic. Welcome back to Flow Dreaming. I'm thinking maybe we'll just go into our Flow dream right now and I'll wrap it up with a few observations on how do you know specifically when someone is in alignment with you or not? Because we just spoke in the beginning about how to notice the alignment you have with the people around you in these different segments of your life, these different tribes you're already a part of. What about individuals within there? Well, we'll take a look at that in a few moments. But first, let's move into Flow together. Now, for those of you who are new, as I say every podcast, go to my website to learn what Flow Dreaming is. Truly, it is not meditation or self hypnosis. It is an active emotional energy technique. It relies on daydreaming. It relies on awareness of flow energy, you as a flowing being. And lastly, it relies on your emotional self communicating through deep expressive emotion. So we're going to Flow Dream. Now that we have found our tribe, we are part of our tribe. We are with those people who are leading us into the people we want to become. We are surrounding ourselves with sort of the next step up. Now, that's not to say You. You can't always be with the people who are a step behind. Of course, there are people we love so deeply in our life, it doesn't matter where they are. We love them anyway. But in general, for this exercise, this is what we're going to focus on. All right? Your eyes are closed and you're relaxing. Shoulders relax. Your breathing is easy and deep. Jaw relaxing. Your forehead releases all tension, lets go. You feel calm. That is a bit lazy. Like a lazy leaf meandering on the top of a stream, swirling in the flow of water. You are this leaf, swirling and being carried on a flow of light, of energy. You twirling, moving. And while it may not be perfectly straight, it is never stuck, it's never stalled. You're continuously moving forward, moving into a future, moving into the next step. And you see yourself now bending to take energy, scooping it out from your hand, from this stream. Watch as it spills over your palms. Light. It's frothy. It's beautiful. This energy is power. It's potent. It's the raw stuff of creation. Look up. Look forward. Look how this stream of light rolls into the distance. It's all yours. In a way, it is you. You could grab it with both hands, like grabbing the edges of a long, white, beautiful, sparkling cloak and wrap it around yourself. Queen of the universe, King of the galaxy. Your galaxy, your future, your flow, your absolute, utter alignment with everything that you are becoming and desiring and expanding into each day, each minute that ticks by. And you're saying to yourself, now, in this place, this flow, this absolute alignment that you find yourself flowing with now, however you see it, you're flowing with it. You find yourself saying, I recognize and I love the people and situations in my life. And yet I'm seeking ever greater and continuous alignment, ever greater continuous alignment. This means that as I look forward, more people arise in my life, daily, monthly, who usher me into the next step, the next phase of whom I'm becoming. Whatever characteristics I want to see and feel and know in myself, know in myself, as if perhaps these characteristics were already there. They just have to be brought out. Well, those are the circumstances that bring them out in me. These are the people, these are the ideas. These are the workplaces. These are the places I go where these ideas, these new expressions of me are allowed to come out and unfold. I go deep into that a place where I feel like, yes, they're being brought forward from me, brought out of me. I can look at them, see them, and I say, oh, I didn't realize. I didn't know. Is this who I'm becoming? Wow. How exciting. How exciting. And likewise, all the new faces in my life. Or perhaps they're people I already know. I'm just getting closer to them, getting more like them. I'm. I'm feeling, I'm saying we are so successful. We're so successful. We're so clear, we're so open, we're so transparent. We vibe with positivity. We. We vibe a feeling that yes, everything is getting better. Why wouldn't it? Of course my life is improving day by day. Of course good and wonderful things roll into my life. Of course this is how I live. This is how I think. And then we add in anything else. How else do they like us? How else are we like them? Do we honor each other? Are we good to each other? Do we think with high thoughts? Do we look at life with beauty and grace? Do we feel connection? Are these the people who embody the characteristics I want to be in myself? Yes. Yes, they are. And why wouldn't they be with me? We are alike. We are alike and I honor that. I accept that. I revel in that. I love that feeling. I love the support it gives me. It's not support like it has to be there. It's support because it just is there. It couldn't not be there. And as I look around, I realize there are very few places that I'm not in alignment in my life. The tribes around me, well, they are me. They reflect me. I've chosen every one of them. Every one. And if I have any doubt or confusion as to why I chose them, then I look deeper, perhaps I reevaluate and I realize, oh, I chose you a long time ago. You no longer fit. Let's change the things. Or perhaps I'm realizing I chose you and then I didn't know what to do about it. Let's go deeper. Let's. Let's create more alignment here. All of this for me means I am in flow. This is flow. This is ease. This is easy. Easy, easy. My life is easy. My tribes are easily in my life. I am led. I am led. Right now I feel myself. It's as if someone has taken my hand and I'm walking forward. I'm being led right into where I need to go. I'm being introduced. Very old fashioned. How do you do? How do you do? Being formally introduced, I'm being connected. And I say, yes, thank you. I appreciate the introduction and being introduced. Here. You are my tribe, my friends. My family, my peers, my clients, my partners. Thank you. Introduce me. Of course. Makes sense because I belong. I absolutely belong. And I linger on that feeling. Now in flow, I hold to that introduction. It has been made. My tribe is here and they are arriving daily. Even now, as I return from my flow, A three, two, one. I open. How did that feel? Do you notice some of the emotions we were using in flow? Emotions of ease, emotion of connectivity, of alignment, of introduction. Every single one of those words carries an emotional quality to it. Great manifestors know what that means and you felt it. And of course, the pictures that you saw, those were secondary. Those just kept your mind busy. Those were just whatever sprung up in your head. The emotion and the flow. That's key. Okay, quick break. Once more. When we get back, calls. And how do you know if you're in alignment with somebody? Specifically, how do you know if they're in your tribe? Stay with me. We'll come back for more Flow Dreaming right after this.

Now back to the show.

Manifest your life with summer mcstravic and flow dreaming. Well, welcome back to Flow Dreaming. Ah, what a lovely day it is. I'm just looking outside. The wind is blowing in off the pac Pacific Ocean. I live not too far from shore, just past the fog line, and I have the most gorgeous roses blooming out front. Recently put in a water wise garden here, but I couldn't sacrifice a few of my roses. So I have cinnamon dolce blooming gloriously right out front. I just can't wait to run out there and inhale it when I'm done recording this with you. So let's talk a little bit about how you know if you're in alignment and then I see some calls we'll get to those of you that we can. So when I have people flow into my life, new people or people who are even existing in my life, and I'm asking, are you part of my tribe now or not, there's a few emotional Sort of things that I look at with them. One of them is when we interact, is there growth? Are we growing in our interaction? It's a funny thing. Unless you've been practicing this for a while, it's sometimes hard to tell. The more you practice being in flow, the more you practice flow dreaming, the clearer and sharper and more instant the response is. When you're interacting with someone, it's either good and right and it feels expansive. There's often a tinge of excitement, a hint of excitement. Now this can happen with people that you've known 20 years. You know, think about some of your best friends. You get with them and you're just so happy to see them. They open up something in your heart. You feel expanded with them. Now look at people that you encounter and you're with and you're definitely not in alignment with. You're struggling to match them. You feel awkward. Perhaps there's even an awkwardness in the way that you communicate. It doesn't have to be bad. This doesn't mean they're going to be evil or wicked or do something. It just means you. They're not exactly meshing with you. Right? Or only a portion of them are meshing with you. People don't always completely match you. It's sort of like, you know, think of two circles and some of them overlap a little bit. You have a little area that's in common. Some of them overlap a great deal. You feel perfectly at ease. There's tons of growth and alignment there. But some people, you don't overlap at all. And you always feel like you're reaching out across some gulf to try and figure them out, to try and work through it. When I'm encountering a person, I'm always feeling, are we moving further into alignment with each other or are we disengaging from one another? Is there struggle? Is there distance? Is there a gulf? Are our energies turned in opposite directions? This can be a co worker. This can be the guy that you dated two weeks ago and haven't heard from since, right? Our physical actions always, always follow our energetic emotional alignment. Okay, hear that? It's something so obvious that we overlook it. Our physical actions always follow our energetic and emotional alignment. If you are struggling with someone who hasn't spoken to you in a while, they're removing themselves from your flow. They're removing themselves from your alignment. Even if you don't understand why they have done so. And you feel that, you feel it in your gut. You feel it as a sense of what's wrong with me or what happened or why are they angry at me? Right. It's the feeling. The action is just a symptom of that feeling. They could still be nice to you, yet that feeling would still be there. And then you'd say, what's wrong? Why am I getting such a mixed message? They seem like they're being nice and friendly and wanting to go do things with me, but it just feels. I don't know. I just don't. Something feels not right. Okay, that's a case where, again, the action follows the core energy. So you can't ever really tell just from the action. It's the energy that comes first. So use that as kind of a litmus test with people. Do they feel clear, transparent, open? Do you feel expansive with them? Do you feel at ease with them? Or do you feel on guard, confused? Do you feel jealous, envious? Do you feel embattled in some cases with them? Are you tugging over the same resources? They're not in alignment with you, so just recognize that and then take your foot off the pedal and go, oh, do I really need to put more energy into this relationship? Do I? Maybe you don't. Maybe you can just say, nope, I'm not spending my energy on people who aren't in my tribe. I would rather give more to the people who are in my tribe. So, you know, people ask me all the time, how do I get rid of negativity in my life that what? This one simple way of looking at things can wash away 75% of the negativity in your life because you're no longer aligning to it. You're no longer trying to battle it, conquer it, bring it back to you. You just look at it and go, oh, we don't align. Takes a lot of strength to do that sometimes because you get fearful. You know, like, what if it's an ex boyfriend? What if you're saying, oh, I don't want to not align, I want to stay aligned even though we're not together anymore? What you're doing then is you're really pouring effort, pouring yourself, pouring your life, pouring your flow into someone who is no longer giving it back to you. You're trying to be part of a tribe that you're not matching any longer. So, yes, it can take stamina, it can take strength, but here's where flow always comes in and comforts me. I say, this is just one phase. This is just one moment in a long stream of potential interactions all through my life and future. This may be a Necessary separation. This may be a necessary change. May be necessary to step out of this workplace for a while. Maybe necessary for whatever. You know, the sense that everything is a finale, let that go. There is no finale. Change and flow are constant. You can meander in and meander back and meander here, meander there. So this sustains me. This always reminds me there is a next. There is a next. So I can stop clinging onto that thing and just let myself be moved into the next where I naturally should be going anyway. I'm going to do that because it's going to be aligned in some way, which means it's going to make me feel good, it's going to make me feel better. I know that. I feel that. I believe that. Okay, quick call. Hey, change of, change of, change of pace here. Quick call, quick call. Nicole, you're calling from Ontario, Canada today. Hey, how are you?

Fine, how are you?

I'm great. What can I help you with? Hey, have we ever spoken before?

No, but I have. Your overnight riches and more money, monthly little dreams.

Nice. Love it.

Yes. I was just wondering if you would be able to look into my flow and see if there's any particular. Anything specific to me that I can do to get more into alignment with money to the next level. Because I already. I'm doing pretty good. I've seen significant improvement, but I kind of want to get to that next level because I have the. Tried to. I know you're talking about tribes and I already have that pretty. I feel pretty good about that.

Yeah. Okay.

About money.

Okay, let's see here. Nicole, what do you do now, by the way? How are you earning your money or bringing it in in your life?

I am a musician, songwriter.

Fun.

Yes.

Let's see. Oh, yes. And you have a passion for it. You love your work. You love your work because when I'm looking at you, I don't see any fault with the connection that you have to the work you do. I'm really not feeling much insecurity there. I'm feeling just an overwhelming sense of love expansion. It's almost puzzling to you why you could be putting out so much energy into something yet not be receiving back what you would consider equal. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. It is puzzling if you look at it from that perspective. The one thing, what you're expecting to do though right now is put your music out into the world and just have it do all the work for you.

You without having to deal with a certain type of. How do I say it? There's a Certain type of network and a certain type of system that's in place and type of people that I just can't. I can't be around them. I can't.

Yeah, yeah. This is what, this is where I was seeing you. It's like you're really happy to put your music out there and let it do all the work and the connectivity for you. But you yourself, you hold back behind your music. You have to. It's like you need to go about setting up some outlets for yourself. Outlets and take your mind off those people. And the one way that you know to do it, just let that. Just put that aside. Set it aside. Like clearing dishes off a table. Begin thinking of new outlets. Where can my music go? Who would want it? Who should hear it? Who can see it? Where can I get booked for it? Do I need to go new places? I want you to just. It's like clearing all the old dirty dishes. It's exactly what I'm seeing. Set a new place setting. Because you are stuck in this place where you are not putting yourself out there. And you need to be. Now, I don't mean as a musician, you know, playing, you're very happy. But the business part of you, the part of you that says, I need to create these ongoing funnels, these ongoing channels of expression where I'm being paid, where I'm being rewarded, where I'm being booked, where my stuff's being sold, that is really where your shift needs to go because you've got the goods. I mean, that's taken care of. You don't need to worry about making anything more.

Yeah, okay.

Even though it's tempting to do that, because that's what's easy, that's what's in your comfort zone to do. You have to switch and get those channels open and take away the blocks to doing that. Remind yourself. It's not what I think it's going to be like. Because when you go in thinking it's going to be what you think it's like, that's exactly what you're going to get. All right. I hope that helps you, Nicole.

Yeah, that is very helpful. What do you think about just receiving money? Just receiving money. No justification without.

Great. You know, I put that into my prosperity challenge. That's. That's on my website. It's a. It's a two week program to really break open a lot of doors to money. And that's one of them. Just receiving it. Just like if money's out there and it could come my way. Hey, I'M I'm absolutely an open, you know, an open book for you to come into my life. So yeah, go ahead. But I like to create that as an adjunct, you know, just one more way in, one more channel in. I don't pin my hopes on that being the only way because you see, then I'm saying to the universe, just give me money while I kick back and wait. And I, you know that that doesn't work. You have to do action and pre action. If you do, if you're doing both, you're going to get results in both. So that's, I'd really like to see you. Do you need more action, my dear?

Excellent.

All right. Thank you so much for your call, Nicole. Take care. Bye now. And looking at this, oh my gosh, I think, I think the show is just about wrapping up. I have like a few seconds left. So I'll tell you what, stay with me through the summer. I have a whole series of fun new subjects and topics planned. I'm also, like I mentioned last time, gathering new topics to go over. If you guys have suggestions for me, please email me summerlowdreaming.com summerlowdreaming.com ask me what you would like to hear me speak about. Also, another request that I would have for you is if you go to itunes or Stitcher, either one of those, both of those have apps on your phone or on the computer if you would subscribe to the show. It does wonders for its rating if you subscribe to it. Also if you post a review about it. And that really helps me because I don't do any advertising for this podcast. Zip. None at all. So it all relies on you saying good things. So if you do, you'll get all my kisses, love and extra, extra flow. Alright, until next week. I'll talk to you all then. Bye for now.

That's a wrap for today, but if you want to keep things going, then download my free Flow Dreaming apps. That's right, there's two of them. The first app allows you to listen to this podcast anywhere you want on your mobile device, as well as search and favorite episodes. The other app hooks you up with my Manifesting store, which includes an oracle to help you see where, what direction you most are in need of right now and advice.
