Gabby, I'm so excited to have you on the show again. Thank you so much for coming on.

I love being on your show. So happy to be back on.

Oh my gosh.

This is.

Honestly, I just keep making excuses or finding excuses to have you on. This is our third one. So you guys, if you want to hear today, we're gonna jump right into some really amazing, epic information for you guys. But if you want to hear more about her story, I'm gonna put it in the show notes. You can go to either episode 38 or 66, so they're gonna get just like a ton of Gabby. It's gonna be amazing. All right, So I would love. I'm so excited that your master class is here again. You just got done with.

Yeah, the live events happened. It was amazing. And then we always launch the digital shortly after so that nobody has to have any FOMO and they can get on in it.

So that's what we're going to chat about today because if you can't make it to the live event, which I got to experience myself, which Gabby, if you guys listen to the conversations before this and if you follow me at all or know anything about this podcast, you guys know that that was truly one of the biggest, biggest launching pads for myself and my business. It was like after that everything changed. Because honestly, it's just being able to come from a place where you feel like you are owning your voice and your business and you can really, when you do that, it is so powerful to reach people. So that in person event was, like, mind blowing for me. And I've done your digital course since then, too, because it's just so important. Right. It's so foundational. Is that what you feel like when you created this is it was really just the foundation of what everybody needed to begin?

Yeah. I think that the number one element of the training that comes through for every single one of our alumni is that it's a confidence training. It's a training in accepting your mission and your purpose and your greatness. And so that's why someone like yourself, I think, has thrived so much from this training, because you already ready, you believed that you had something to do. And the masterclass, I believe, really kicks people over the edge. And just there's a nice little gentle kick in the ass and say, yes, it is your time to rise up and speak up and be unapologetic about the work that you're here to do in the world in whatever form that comes. So first and foremost, it's a confidence training and a practice in clearing all the blocks and the fears that stand in our way from stepping into our power as humans, as leaders, as people, as entrepreneurs, as abundant beings. Beings in the world. And. And so I'm so happy that that has had the same effect on you, which I'm so thrilled to see.

Yeah, for sure. So are there common threads that you find when people are ready to step in, or maybe they're starting to think about stepping in where spiritual people really struggle in business, what are those things that seem to hold people back?

Some of the biggest business struggles are fear of financial insecurity. So I see a lot of people that come through our masterclass are in career transition. So they may be working by day as a publicist or in some kind of day job and moonlighting as a life coach or running a podcast or doing something that they want to have as their primary career? So that fear of financial insecurity is holding them back. So belief system that how can I make money doing this healing work? Or how can I make money doing this inspiration work? And so that's a big story that I hear when I see my students come through. And in the training, we bust the myth that it's not spiritual to make money or that you can't make money doing what inspires you. We really clear the slate on that story. So that's a really big one. Another one is people just sort of having a belief system of, who am I to be great, who am I to do this? Who am I To step out and make an impact, have a voice, create a movement in whatever form that is. For me, I see that a lot. So who am I to do this? Is a huge one. The masterclass training helps people walk away with a new mantra, which is, who am I not to? I know that you've had that experience. It's like that silly story of who am I to do this? Is completely washed away through the practices and the foundational work that occurs early in the training, which is a lot of spiritual work. So what's different about this training is it's equal parts spiritual and personal growth, as it is also a business training. So there's this really beautiful element, because I believe if we're going to succeed in business and if we're going to have abundance financially, we have to do the spiritual work to clear the belief systems that hold us back from our earning capacity and hold us back from stepping into our light. And that is foundational work that has to occur in order for us to really step out and do the things that we're here to do.

I love that. So do you ever find that people, maybe once they first start putting themselves out there, or they first start maybe making or creating a program, that they might have questions in their head or these ideas that maybe making money or setting these abundant goals might not be spiritual? Like they don't know how to focus on making money while still getting their message across? Do you hear that?

Oh, yeah. And I see people struggle with this all the time, where they let the financial insecurity get in the way of the purpose of the work. So a huge message that comes through in the training and also just from me as a teacher, because this has been the belief system that I have embodied as a entrepreneur and as a spiritual teacher, which is that the more authentic I am in the truth of what I'm teaching, the more abundant I will be naturally. It doesn't have to come from a place of forcefulness. It doesn't have to come from a place of manipulation or control. It really comes naturally. So when you're in alignment with the core message and the service of the work that you're here to bring forth, then the universe provides. And that sounds like nice spiritual language, but it's truth. And it is probably the most truthful statement I can say on this entire podcast, which is that when you're in alignment with inspiration and joy and excitement and enthusiasm, you become a magnet for opportunities, for money, for clients, for ideas and opportunities and messages that come through that are beyond what you could think of with your own logical mind.

Chris, my husband, actually just started a podcast about being unapologetic about making money. Is there something that maybe a program or something that you've done that's brought in a lot of cash flow for you? What has it allowed you to do that you would not have been able to do? Maybe get a message out there more or have a bigger reach. What are some of the major things that you have been able to do because of what you've been able to create?

I think that's a beautiful question because I think a lot of people have like a lot of guilt around earning. And I had this too. I mean, I grew up without any money and my family really just taught me the belief systems of financial insecurity. So my whole story was, you know, you can't make money, it's hard to make money. My money story was disgusting, it was horrible. And so when I learned that I could make money, what I began to accept was that earning was a way of recycling back into the mission and the vision that I had. So I continued to take the financial abundance that I accumulated through the great work that I've been doing in the world and I've begun to continue to put it back into the business that I'm creating. And create not only opportunities to hire more people to do this work or invest in getting the message out or invest in my personal well being, which is another huge part, which is when we accept that earning for our great work is also a great opportunity to begin to invest in our well being so that we can continue to do the work that we're here to do, right? So it's one thing to just make money and work your ass off and never take care of yourself, but if you can see what you earn as currency for your health and wellness, that is fantastic. I remember when I just got to a place where I no longer cared about how much money I spent at Whole Foods. And that was a great feeling because it's like I'm putting myself first. I'm putting my well being first. I'm caring for my body and my physical presence and for the energy that I put out into the world. And so if you start to just change the way you perceive abundance, then abundance can flow.

I totally remember having moments in the Whole Foods line and just being like, you know, I just don't want to think about how much Greek yogurt costs.

Like, yeah, like, I just want to.

Never think about that ever again so that I can free up all of those little thoughts like that and put it just somewhere else. And that is the most freeing feeling just to have something small like that and so many other huge things just be gone. Because of everything that I've learned, I still root way into all of these teachings. Whenever something comes up, let's say I'm going to launch something really big. I can can get these old stories about, you know, what is this worth? Or is this valuable enough? So what do you do when you are either creating a program or you're putting something out there? How would somebody who's starting know what value to place and just to feel good about it, no matter what they decide?

So I usually say that you'll know in your body what currency feels right to you. So it's less about logic and it's much more about intuition. I have products and courses that range from $0 to $1,800. And it depends on the value that I perceive the course to be worth. Right. I also can feel really good. And this is something for anyone that's creating their own content. It's wonderful to be able to feel great. That, okay, I have a book that costs $14 on Amazon and I have a meditation that I give for free. And then I have a training that I value at 1800 because it's 30 hours of content and it's being updated every year. So. So when you have those different levels of ways that people can enter, you don't have to feel guilty about what you charge. Somebody says to you, oh, I can't afford that. You can say, well, no problem, I can give you this or no problem. Here's five free lessons that I have on my blog. So when you're giving a lot away, you can always feel even better about charging. Because you can know that if someone can't meet you where you are, if the product isn't right for them, they can still get the great benefits from Your work by receiving what it is that you offer for free. And these days, any one of us can give free content, no matter what it is that we're doing, no matter what career path we have. We can all have a blog, we can all have a social media feed, we can all have places where we deliver our products and services and messages for free in some way so that we can then value the products that we create with currency that is aligned with what we believe they're worth.

And there's so much work that you do in this course before that, where you might be out of alignment somewhere you may not understand something, or something might not actually be clicking for you or how have sunk in that all of a sudden you learn one thing. You know, for me, it was just really getting comfortable with my spirituality story and everything after that just kind of started clicking in for me. So I didn't even realize that this was translating throughout everything that I was doing without being clear on that. So you really go over everything. What made you put it together in steps like this? Was it something that. Is this how you really found your path?

Yes, exactly. It's exactly right. So I started noticing so many people that were reading my books and coming to my lectures, waking up to their own spiritual awakening, their own experience of wanting to change their lives. When they started to change the way they looked at their lives, their lives began to change. And in that shift, they started to feel awesome, they started to feel powerful, feel confident. With that confidence comes a whisper that says, it's time to share message. It's time to tell people your story. It's time to be of service in some unique way. So I noticed all these people wanting to wake up and do some type of service oriented work and wanting to bring their inspiration work to the world. And it was very clear to me that it was my responsibility to tell my audience members that this is how I did it so that you can avoid some of the mistakes that I made and really have a clear path on how to step in and rise up quickly because we got a lot of work to do. So I created this course based on the practices that I applied in my own life and in my own career. It's like I said, equal parts personal growth and spiritual development. Clearing fear, gaining confidence, stepping into the belief system that will carry you as a human and also carry you in your business and whatever that may be, whether you work for somebody else or you work for yourself. And then and the business building tools that I've used in my career to have my message seen and heard to make sure that I am being clear about who I'm speaking to, to create books and digital courses and to really put content and messaging out into the world in a authentic, genuine way.

Okay. So when you're talking about that, you know, some people might be like, oh, I can hear it. I can feel what I'm here for, but maybe I feel like it's already been done before. And when you say putting your content out in an authentic way, what are some things that you do to either get into that space or do you try some of your free stuff out to send it out to see what the feedback is? How do you know what it is that you are wanting to put out next or what's being called to put out next?

Well, let me answer this two questions here, and one's really important. The first one was a lot of people do say it's already been done, right? So let's address that right now. Which is my response to that, is that if you have a desire to do inspiring work in some way, particularly like healing work or anything that's going to help elevate the world, you have to realize that while there may seem to be a lot of people doing that type of work, there are far more people in need of that inspiration than there are people actually teaching it. So we need you. Just take that in, right? Let's start there. You can bust that myth that everybody else is doing it and accept that there's far more people that need it than there are people doing it. And so this is why we. That's why I created this training, and that's why I'm so proud that you're out there teaching people to be leaders and teaching people to speak up and do the work that they want to do because we need you. So that's the first part. The second question you asked was, how do they sort of test drive their material? Is that kind of what's.

How do you know what's being called to come out next? Like what your maybe what your people would love to hear from you?

A lot of this has to do with how willing you are to tune in energetically. So the more I meditate and the more I listen to my intuition, the easier it is for me to hear what my audience wants out of me, right? So it becomes like almost like a knock on the door, hey, we want a book on faith right now. Or, hey, I need to write a book on judgment. So I launched the Universe has yous Back, my most recent book. About six or seven months ago. And that was very clear to me that my audience was feeling unsafe and they were looking for certainty. And it's almost like a premonition, like it was. I wrote that book two years before. We were like, in this sort of shitstorm that we're in now in terms of what's going on in the world, right? Not to take any political standpoint at all, but just what's going on in the world is chaotic, right? And so I got a strong sense, okay, we are in a funky place and we're going to scarier places. I need to write a book about faith. I need to write a book called the Universe has yous Back so that people can start to transform their fear into faith and really try in a higher power. So that was really, really loud for me. 1 Logically, given what was happening in the world, and also just intuitively what's coming. And most recently, I just finished a book called the Judgment Detox. And Judgment Detox comes out in January of 18. And I wrote that book way before there was all this divisiveness coming through. I mean, it's always been there, but now it's just in your face. So it became. It's almost like I have these premonitions. I'm just listening. So I think that, first of all, when you're creating something, you always have to make sure that you're inspired by it and you're excited to create it. And if you're excited by it, then other people will be excited by it, but also just trusting that if it's coming to you and you're feeling an intuition, trust that. Trust that there is a message that's supposed to come through you, and you act on it, take action, show up for it.

Too many people finish their workday feeling frustrated, drained, and unfulfilled.

I know that.

I have experienced that myself. And the good news is it doesn't have to be this way, and you don't need a new job to fix it.

So what is something that you wish more people would ask you?

Oh, good question. I wish more people would ask me, how do I be more real?

That's good. So how do you do that?

So for me, I know when I'm bullshitting. Like, I know I can feel it in my body. I'm not breathing. I'm thinking about what someone's thinking about me. I'm jumbled, not clear headed. And I know what it feels like to be truthful. Words come to me easily. I'm breathing easily. I'm feeling a sense of ease. So I know the difference between what it feels like to be out of alignment with my truth and what it feels like to be in alignment. Another big thing. Also, listen, I just did a talk a few weeks ago for Oprah's Super Soul sessions and the day before. I know, I love that you were there. It was so good that you, I could see your little instagrams and, and I, the day before was feeling all this nervous energy. And I mean, I'm a motivational speaker. I've been a speaker for 12 years longer. 15 years. So what the fuck? Why was. Sorry I'm cursing so much on your show, but why was I in that space? Why? Because I was speaking on Oprah's stage. So here I am and I'm looking at my situation. I'm like, okay, I'm making this special. And I had to do my work around what I got to get back into the truth of why I'm here, the truth of what I'm doing. This is not my authentic truth to be making someone special or to be making something separate. So I just went back into the fact that I am here to be of service. I'm here to speak on behalf of a divine wisdom. I am here to be a conduit for a loving message. I am here to change even one person's belief system. Then I have done my job. So when I got out of my own way, by realigning with the truth of what I'm here to do, I was able to let that authentic story come through and be real on the stage and be comfortable on the stage. And the beauty is as soon as I made that shift and chose the authentic approach. I came in. I was relaxed and at ease and hanging out with Oprah backstage, I was fine. I didn't think that there was no separation. Everybody was hanging out, you know, and I wasn't afraid to get on the stage, and I just jumped out there and let it come through because I had stepped aside. So just. We got to be aware of when we're making things special and making people separate and trying to prove ourselves. And when we have that awareness, we can pray to have it be healed and removed, and we can choose a different way to show up.

Wow. Okay. So that just completely made me cry because. Because I have a TED Talk coming up, and I've just been so attached to it, Gabby. And I was like, of course. And honestly, seeing you on stage was such a reminder, so. And. And that was so beautiful. You came through 100 million percent.

You.

Like, it was so felt. It was just. It was such a gift for everybody who was there. So thank you for that.

So then my message to you is the same. It's like, just like, you know, the real. The real prayer is, what would you have me say? Right? The real prayer is, what miracles would you have me perform today? This is not. And so when it's not about you, then your authentic truth can come forward.

Oh, man. I felt that, like, it was so much true. I just grabbed my gut, and I was like, yes. Okay, we're gonna come from this place, and I'm gonna replay this right after.

Yay. Good. Okay.

I swear to God, guys, this wasn't for me today, but it just happened to be for me today, so. All right, Gabby, so what do you feel are some of your biggest strengths that you love to teach people?

So I love, love, love teaching confidence. I want to write a book about confidence. People think that confidence is, like, on a business card or confidence is, like, how well I can dress or how I can walk into a room f. All that stuff. It is confidence is your capacity to be real and true. Success is. Is completely a direct reflection of your level of confidence. And so, you know, it's interesting, I was just talking to a friend of mine who's a massive celebrity, and he was telling me all about how he did this interview, and he was being real and authentic, and he was so uncomfortable in that authenticity. And I said to him, I was like, honey, that authenticity is what the world wants from you. That is when you're being truly confident. So it's like he had this old belief system that confidence means I'm perfect. Confidence means I don't expose my underbelly, right? But actually, it's quite the opposite. True confidence comes when you're willing to expose your underbelly, when you're willing to be authentic, when you're willing to be real. So that is something that I just feel so proud to teach. And it's something that we are not taught to build. We're taught it in a different way. So I want to, you know, I'm definitely going to write a book about confidence and success being an inside job. And then I think the other thing I love to teach is public speaking, something that comes through big time in the masterclass. It's teaching people how to craft an inspirational story. We all have a story, and our stories are what make us experts in the worlds that we live in, because we've been through it, and our stories are what heal. So it's a huge part of my work to help people learn how to tell their stories.

There's so much freedom in what you say because all of. I mean, that's really what I got out of it when I left. And it's just, honestly, that's how you feel. You feel free. You almost feel like you. You walk in a completely different person and you walk out somebody who's like, do those things really matter before? And it's not that they don't come back, because they can, but you just get these really incredible tools. And I still have. I literally have my handbook with me, like, right next to me. It's still here. Like, I refer to it.

So it's so cute.

So what do you do with. Because when you're really out there, I mean, of course you're going to. You're going to get positive feedback and you're going to get negative feedback. How do you handle either energetically or just your mindset when you get negative feedback from people, whether it's on a course that you put out or anything online?

So, you know, I always. If I get something negative, I ask myself, is this true to me? And if it is, then I take it as an opportunity to change things. Or I take it as an opportunity to adjust something or do it differently next time. If it's not true to me, I say, you know, thank you for sharing. And I forgive and delete because it's, you know, people want to project their stories onto you, and so you can't take all those stories on. Sometimes those stories are wonderful guidance to look more closely at what your shadows are doing, but sometimes they're just people's crazy projections. And so if it doesn't feel true, then let it go. Move on.

That's so great. Literally, it was two minutes before I got on this podcast, and I had this email pop up with this really negative headline, and I was like, oh, I'm gonna. We're just gonna let that go and forgive it, and I'm gonna read that later.

Yeah, yeah. And really check in with yourself. Like, is this true for me? Because remember, like, the more you put yourself out there, the more that challenges people. And. And so the other nice thing, too, is as you start to create a team of people that work for you, they can filter some of that crap so you don't have to see it. And so a lot of stuff that comes through, I don't even know it's there.

Yeah. Isn't that great?

It is.

That was one thing I looked forward to. I'm like, I can't wait to have a team so I can have somebody do my customer service. And I'm like, wow, that's another reason, you guys, why you need to free yourself up to make more money is to have those so that you can be totally in your space creating and serving at a way higher level. Because when. I mean, I'm sure in the beginning, you did some of your customer service too. And it's like, energetically, you're just. You don't have a whole lot of time for. Or, you know, emotion for other things when you're doing that. So, yeah, that is huge. So do you still get blocked? And if you do, what do you do?

Of course I definitely get blocked. I often will physically move when I feel blocked. Physically move, I will amp up my meditation practice. I will do less, because one of the big things that blocks me is this belief that I should multitask, which is insane. So I stop multitasking, and I start doing less, and I, like, I'm blocked right now. I'm trying to find a subtitle. So I canceled this video shoot literally, just so I could spend the next week figuring out my subtitle. I was like, I'm not gonna clutter my mind with other things when I really need to let this thing come through me. Right. So I think sometimes clearing the space for. For the. For clarity to come through.

Needed that one, too, today.

Okay, thanks.

So what are some of your favorite success stories that have come out of your masterclass?

Oh, my God, there's so many. Oh, my God, there's so many. So, okay, we've got one. Which Is Danielle, Danielle Mercurio. Her story is she went from corporate to coach in eight months after joining the masterclass. She was in her corporate career trying to transition to become a life coach. Over three years of trying to coach, she only had like maybe two or three clients over that three year period. Came to masterclass, accepted the invitation to show up and go big, you know, took maybe another six months or took eight months of a transition, which really is quite fast. Really, it's less than the time it takes to pick a baby. In that eight months. She started to do work on the side. She listened to my advice, which was she used the money that she was making in her corporate job to fuel and fund the new business. She was building and built the business on the side within eight months after masterclass, and then eight months later was a full time life coach, speaker, and just personal growth guru, yoga teacher. This is her full career now, and she's a miracle. She's amazing. Wow. Yeah, that was a big one. Another one is a woman named Susie Draper, who I love. And this is a archetype of a woman that often comes to masterclass is somebody that's coming because they've had their spiritual awakening. They know that they've had a spiritual awakening or a moment of personal growth that has moved them and a belief that like, oh, you know what, maybe I'm supposed to do something with this, but I don't know what it is. And they're in a job that they like, but it's not really the most fulfilling thing, but they're like, there's something more here. And so they end up in the masterclass training, and they're like, why did I end up here? They don't even know why. But then once they take it, they're like, this is it. This is what I'm supposed to do. And Susie started bringing in spiritual principles into her existing career. And she's working at High Fashion magazine. She started, like doing tarot cards during the lunch breaks and like coaching her colleagues. And within two years of sort of bringing it into her existing space and trying to just sort of decide, what is it I'm supposed to be doing. It became very clear to her that she was actually meant to step out and do this on her own. So she's now on her own, completely fully sufficient and supported financially through the work that she's doing today. So that's an interesting nice transitional story as well. And then there's folks like you, Laurie, that come. They're very successful. They've got A clear vision of what they're here to do. They're doing it and they lead masterclass and they just up level, they just go to the next level. And also just to what your point was earlier, just start to accept that there's even a deeper level of authentic truth that's meant to come through and becoming unapologetic about sharing those stories.

I love that. And you know, that's exactly what it just gave it. Richness. It just gave me like such deep roots that it was just felt so solid to me. So I think that's what a lot of people are missing is they have this idea, they have this thing they want to put out there, but they still have this question mark in the back of their head where that is so gone. Like it doesn't even exist anymore. It's such a truth in my whole body. It's a whole body. Yes. So that was super powerful for me. So on tribe, because I want to talk about just. It's not just the, you know, the course or the masterclass. It's like you are tapping in to this beautiful tribe of women that I guess that's also what made the question mark go away is all of a sudden you're with these people and you're in this room and you're hearing this truth and it's just hitting your soul and it's like, oh, my God, like having all of these incredible people around you. What role does tribe play in your life and in this masterclass?

Well, it's major for whether you join live or you come to the digital. It's like a huge part of what we offer right away. Second, you sign up for the digital is a Facebook group that's been growing over year after year, and it's a family. What happens is that the community's so loving, so warm. It's one of the nicest communities on the Internet. And this community just opens the door wide. Second, that you're in the tribe, you are in the family. The relationships that have spawned from this training have become business partnerships and best friendships and lifelong connections. I think the feedback we see from every single one of our alumni who give testimonials all share that one of the most amazing parts of it is the community. What that means to me is that I was honest on this path way before it was kind of hip to be on this path. And I really just wanted to create community. And that's a big reason why I started speaking about it. Just to get people in a room talking about what I believe to be true and what they believe to be true.

So how does being spiritual, how does really finding your voice and finding your own, whatever you want to call it, your own spiritual story, your own spiritual journey, and really wrapping that into what you do, how does that help you thrive in business?

It's everything. It's everything. When you have that foundation, as I referred to it earlier, you gain the confidence, you clear the blocks, you align your energy with inspiration. And when you're in that space, you're in a place of no resistance. When you're in an absence of resistance, you become a super attractor. You become. Your energy's free, you have a good vibe, and the world reflects that back to you. Trust me when I tell you your most valuable currency is your energy. So if your energy isn't clear and joyful and inspirational, then you won't be a magnet for more of that.

I can't even tell you how much. The more that I. Because every year we have a whole new kind of, of set of things that we're working on in our life. And the more that I've been able to let go, let go, let go, let go, let go of these thoughts that I thought that I needed to be and just really work on faith and love and being and just feeling and listening.

It's.

It's amazing how much less you have to do. It's like things really do come to you. I can't even the last six months, I've been like, they really do come to you. They just keep up and they keep coming at such a fast pace. You're almost like, okay, how do I turn this magnet down just a little? But it's.

People don't get it. They don't get that, like, you know, the less, the less you do sometimes the more powerful you are. And listen, that goes differently for everybody. Some people are real action takers like you and me, and so we need to tone it down. And some people are just sitting on their ass and they're just not taking action, so they need to amp it up. So there's different. There's different places for different people. But. But there is something about to be said for living in joy and inspiration and letting things show up in your life.

So, Gabby, there's so much. I mean, I could keep you on here all day, and I'm going to wrap this up in a bit. But what is something that you would like people to know about this course? What is something you really want people to take home?

If you have a sense, like, if you're feeling the call like I have. I have a story to tell. I have a message to share. I want my life to feel more inspirational. I want to feel more aligned and I want to be able to be unapologetic about earning for that great message in that work. If there's a hit of any kind behind that, then it's a yes. Because I have so many people that land there, not even knowing why. They just hear that little whisper and they say yes and it becomes this pivotal turning point in their life. I am deeply, deeply proud of this training. It's the best use of me as a teacher and a person and it's my greatest contribution to the world. So I feel, feel so honored to invite people on that journey and to invite people into our tribe, into our family. And I, I'm so grateful that I've allowed this to come through and that we as a community of, of the alumni have created such a powerful movement with the work.

So powerful. So you guys, there is a three video training series that she has coming out and the first video, I'm just going to go over the top titles quick. The three steps to own your confidence and get into action. Video 2 is going to be the three major blocks to your abundance and how to fix them. And video three is the number one way to stand out and make an impact doing what you love. So that is going to be@lori harder.com forward/gabby that you can get all of that good stuff. And you guys, I literally just started with Gabby's free videos and her lectures at first, and then it was like I was completely. I learned so much and applied so much that taking the masterclass is what really pushed everything over the edge for me and completely launched my career in a different way in such an empowering, beautiful, authentic way where I was excited to wake up and I was being pulled toward what it was I was supposed to be doing. And that to me was just. It was like, it was completely life giving. So, Gabby, I just want to thank you for, I mean, more than I could probably ever, ever say on this podcast. So just thank you for how you show up every single day because you are a fierce warrior of just your own self work and connecting, you know, to, to the thing that is driving you.
