​​The Manifestation Technique That Will TRANSFORM Your Mindset, Habits, & Income with Mimi Bouchard

Think about your self image like it is the core of an onion and there are all these layers outside of it. You can try to change the outside layers, like your habits, for example. But if you are trying to change a habit and you haven't changed your self image first, that is why you keep failing. You haven't changed your self image yet. You have not changed how you see yourself yet. That is what magnetized certain opportunities and people towards me. That is how I have been able to feel confident in certain decisions that I make if because that self image came first before the thing manifested.

Mimi, welcome to the earn your happy podcast. Thank you so much for coming on the show.

Thank you for having me, Lori. I'm so happy to be here.

You know, we were just chatting before this and I told you this is perfect timing for my life and perfect timing for the podcast listeners because I think the last like three or four solo episodes that I've done are all about visualization manifesting and I don't necessarily have tools for them. So this is the most perfect timing because you are kind of the queen of helping people create what they want in their lives. We're going to deep dive today, you guys. Like, we're not just going to talk about manifesting, visualization, meditation, all the tools and tricks, but you're going to walk away with like actual tangible activations and we're going to talk about that. So, Mimi, how, you know, if you could share a little bit about what you do right now, what your app is that I'm so excited about, and then just what got you into that in the beginning?

Absolutely. So my journey started about a decade ago. I was getting really into personal development after going through a pretty tough period in my life. I was at a point where I didn't really recognize myself when I was looking in the mirror. I had a deep amount of self hatred. I hated how I looked, how I felt. I didn't like who I was becoming. And that's when I found personal development. And it really did save me at the time. So I became addicted to it because the more work that I did on myself, the more that I read about how my potential is limitless in this world, the more that I researched how we could actually be the creator of our lives, that we are 100 responsible for our lives. And here's why. You know, when, when I looked into the neuroscience behind how visualization worked and how you can actually train your brain to be different, your thoughts to be different, the more that I dived into this work the better I felt, right? So I went from being very unhappy in every aspect of my life. There was nothing really going for me at that time. And then I did the work and. And I got really into this personal development work about a decade ago. So that's kind of the beginning stages. I. I dived into it. I became kind of obsessed with it.

For people listening, because I think, like, what, what does that. Where exactly emotionally were you at? Like, what were you feeling every day? Was there something specifically that was going on that was like, holy shit, like, this needs to change. Like, I have to change my reality. What did that look like for you?

A lot of shame and anxiety and self hatred. I was living paycheck to paycheck. I at one point had like under $10 in my bank account. I was trying to hustle, trying to make my dreams a reality. I wanted more. I wanted a bigger life. And there was this feeling of stuckness because I knew deep down that I could create something different for myself, But I just wasn't doing it. And I kept doing the things that I knew were bad for me. Drinking a lot, doing drugs, you know, not treating myself with respect. I also just had deep confidence issues. I felt very unsure of myself. I allowed other people to really just dictate a lot in my life. And I didn't feel healthy from a physical standpoint. I was like 30 pounds heavier and just didn't like how I felt in my body. Felt very puffy all the time. I didn't have any relationship. I had never had a relationship at that point in my life. And I was, you know, really yearning for love in my life. I felt very alone. The friends that I had didn't feel real. Kind of every area, you know, to be totally honest with you, was. Was not great. I also was struggling with eating disorder and just really not liking myself through and through. So. So I was numbing out. I was on my phone a lot. I was numbing out with food. I was numbing out with drinking and drugs. I just, you know, was in this place where nothing was going right. And so I went through this radical change. And it started like I mentioned, reading books, you know, just absorbing everything that I could about this work and seeing that light at the end of the tunnel. And I always had that. That voice deep inside of me that I believe every single person has, everyone listening has that little voice of, what if, you know, what if life could better? What if I could experience more? What if I could actually do that thing and live this type of existence? My One chance at life, my one opportunity on. On this beautiful earth as a human. You know, how, like, what if I could actually live this amazing existence? So that voice got louder and louder. The more clear I got, the less numb that I felt. And this just happened gradually with me starting to prioritize myself more. And listen, it wasn't this overnight. I had an epiphany, and I changed. It wasn't that because if it was going to be that I would have waited forever. It had to be these small incremental changes every day, right? But the longer that I went through this journey, the more that I saw what was working and what I actually saw tangible results from and what was not working, the things that I would do. And I'm like, I don't feel any different. Nothing is changing. So I think due to my obsession with trying to find shortcuts and trying to get things done quickly, and, you know, I'm very impatient just as a person. I think that benefited me in the sense, because I actually started to figure out what worked in transformation and total life transformation and what didn't work. So, you know, I gathered all the information that I absorbed from, you know, those mentors, those books, those seminars, those, you know, all of those unlimited pieces of, you know, educational content that I consumed online at the time. And I still have a very, you know, hu. A huge interest in. In, you know, the. The science of it all, the neuroscience of it all, the quantum physics theories to support, you know, all of this manifestation work. I'm very interested in all of it. And I actually just released a book a couple months ago with Hay House called activate your future self. And that is so much research that I've gathered over the years in one book. So I'm. I'm kind of obsessed with understanding why and figuring out the best, easiest way to get there. So, long story short, I started doing all the things, okay. I did what all those specialists, mentors, teachers told me to do to change my life. And a lot of it started to, you know, really work. Slowly but surely, I started journaling more. I started, you know, clearing up my friendship circle and realizing I'm an average of the five people I surround myself with most. I started to go out less, drink less, and be more introspective and spend a lot more time alone. And journaling was actually a big thing. Part of this at the time. And then I, you know, tried to meditate. That was one of the things everyone says that you should do is meditate. And I just couldn't stick to it. That was the one thing that I felt a lot of resistance with this meditation. And listen, I know meditation is good for you if you want to calm your nervous system and clear your thoughts and feel at peace, and that's great, but that's not really what I was seeking at the time. What I was seeking is something energizing, something invigorating, something that made me feel that. That morsel of inspiration. When I'd listen to that little gut feeling inside of me, it come in a fleeting moment and then it fall away and that inspiration would dwindle. I wanted to bottle up that feeling of, like, inspiration and excitement towards my future. And I wasn't really getting that with meditation. I also felt it was very hard to sit and close my eyes for 20 minutes and sit still and, you know, sit, try to clear my head. Like, it wasn't. It didn't make sense to me. Why am I trying to do this? I'm trying to radically transform my life. This is what I'm trying to do here. I'm trying to get out of being broke. I'm trying to improve my relationship with myself, you know, like, find love, like be my best self, you know, create a successful career for myself. I didn't see how calming my mind was going to help me get there. But then I was reading a lot about visualization and about how, you know, our brains are. Are able to be rewired, neural pathways are able to be, you know, reset. And so I wanted to get the benefits of an audio that would help me feel a certain way and rewire my mind. And once I, you know, decided, you know, what, meditation is just not working for me, I intuitively took out my phone one day, and this was about eight years ago, I took out my phone and I opened the voice memo app on my phone and I recorded my first. Little did I know it was going to be called an activation. But I recorded my first activation on my voice memos. And this was a visualization focus, motivational audio describing my future, getting myself into the energy of my future self mixed with, you know, just deep inspirational words. And then I'd also layer in music. I brought that audio to GarageBand and I started getting obsessed with inspirational cinematic music. Because we all know that music just has a way at changing our state, right? So I started to layer in this inspiring music, and then I create, like five of these, and then I get bored of them, and I wanted to create more. So I literally had a library of dozens of these because you kind of get Bored of them quickly. You want to just listen to new, fresh content sometimes. But I listen to these audios in everyday moments. Okay, I was, this is just my personal transformation tool. I didn't really share with anyone. I'd listen to these audios when I was on the bus going to one of my four jobs at the time. I would listen to these audios cooking dinner in my tiny 200 square foot apartment, studio apartment. I would listen to these audios, you know, in the morning when I was getting ready. And I'm telling you, Lori, the. If you're looking at this like a graph, the bell curve of how quickly my life started to transform when I started listening to these activations, it was insane. It was like this exponential growth. And I had been working on myself for a couple years, you know, before that point, before I started activating. But, but really the stark difference was just surreal. And then years later I decided, you know, I'm just going to share a few of these, make them more general and share them with the world. And that's kind of how I'm where I am today. You know, I launched activations out four years ago and it's been insane, the growth that we've seen. I've never done any traditional marketing. It's been word of mouth, people telling people they've tried it and it changed their lives. We have like tens of thousands of success stories. So it's definitely been something, I think a lot of us needed, something that we could have at stack a new type of audio that's cinematic, that's motivational, that makes you feel like you're the main character in your own movie. And that's when I created activations and you can't really find anything like it anywhere else.

Oh my God. We have a scary similar story. Like scary so. Well, I, you know, when I was younger I was really into just, yeah, all the things alcohol, drugs, really bad friendship circle. And I kind of started doing the same thing. Books, courses, lectures. I went to an event in 2014 by Jack Canfield and he taught us how to do that. Record our own activate like an activation but a visualization.

You just read Jack Canfield and hit. My first personal development book that I read was the Success Principles.

Yeah, I went to that event. So I went to train the trainer. So it was a three week training and this really started this journey of you guys. I can attest to everything she's saying and you know, while I've done this for programs and recorded some for myself, I, I love that you've gone all in because the world needs it more than ever because it is truly what changed my life as well. So I can, I can sit here and say everything she's saying is so important because I, I had started trying to do the same thing. Like, I started meditating and while I hit a really good streak for about a year, like 20 minutes a day, I got certified in transcendental Med. I just, I'm a mover. Like, I'm a runner. I'm super active. I've been a fitness girl my entire life. And so for me, it wasn't until I actually, I started running, you know, three, four times a week. And I'd run for like six miles three or four times a week. And I would listen to like a lecture or that's when I like did the Jack Canfield thing and would record some different things and play it back to myself. And I feel like that is when I just get. You just get lit up. Like it gets into your cells. I believe moving with a quote unquote meditation. And why I love you're doing activations is truly. We'll talk about that particular word as well. But when people have asked what has changed my life, it is because I go out and I move with something in my ears where I am picturing my life specifically on something. And so I know we're going to talk about so many things, but this is why I love your app so much, is because you got really, really specific about different activities. It's like, listen to this, you know, activation while you're cleaning your house for X, Y and Z. And so it's, we're gonna, I'll talk about exact titles. But you get so specific with every little moment in your life. You can be listening to these different things. And I am like, I'm just gonna preach for a minute because it's like we need to be putting these thoughts in our head as much as possible because otherwise the world, social media, you know, Netflix, like, what watching, it's going to try to get you down. It's going to try to sidetrack you. It's going to try to break your energy, pull you out of that energy. It is not easy to stay in that high vibration. And since I've really been doing this even in the last month, again, I'm back in it because I got a little bit away from it. I am like a magnet. Like truly. Yes. I think you need to plug this in. And so that brings me to my question, like, let's really get into like activations. Like, what exactly are they? Why are they different from meditations? You know, from just, like, sitting there? What does it actually do?

What's.

What's kind of the science behind it?

Yeah, absolutely. So activations are a new type of audio that I've developed. They're not a podcast, not a meditation, not just music. It's a new category of sound. And this category of sound is personal development, manifestation, visualization turned all the way up in and packaged in a way that makes it so accessible. You know, I'm a big habit stacker. I'm, like, always doing five things at a time. And that's actually originally why I couldn't stick to meditation, because I was trying to think of a hundred things, and I thought I was failing at that, but little did I know that was actually one of the gifts that I have is I'm able to, you know, do a ton of things at once and think in a different way. And when I started to just lean into that, benefiting me and not being something I should be ashamed of, everything started to change. So traditional meditation is about calming the mind. And then you have visualization, which is just a term. You know, you can do visualization while you're writing and journaling. Visualization you can do anywhere, anytime. But activations really brings and heightens this visualization, you know, brain rewiring component alongside the very powerful music that we use. And this changes your energy, changes your state very quickly. I'll take it together into an activation. So activations are the opposite to meditation. They're energizing. You listen while you're running errands, while you're doing your makeup in the morning, while you're walking. The walking activations are my absolute favorite. The cooking ones, you know, there's a jazzy activation for while you're cooking after a long day, when you just want to reconnect to your best self. Every. Every activation in the app, and we have over 700 activations in the app at this point. Every single one is designed to have you change your state by the end of it, so you feel the results quick, quickly. With me and meditation, you know, I definitely see how meditation over time, like, you did it for a year. I'm sure over time you see a big difference. But I never saw a difference immediately. It was, I'm impatient, remember? Like, I wanted the quick change. So activation immediate, like, it makes you feel different immediately. And that is largely in part 50 of the equation, other than the guided visualization and words that we use in the audios. 50 of the equation is the music that we use. I use, and I've sourced globally some of the best TV and movie composers that there are. I'm talking people that are like the next Hans Zimmer, you know, like serious, incredible, incredible artists that literally design and create this music to make you feel like you are transforming. And this is instructing your brain subconsciously telling yourself, I am in the midst of a transformation. I am becoming my future self. I am already my future self. When you listen to this music, all it takes is just one activation to change your state. Like crazy. You actually feel like the main character of your life. And it doesn't take any extra time. Is it simple? It's almost effortless just to listen in the background. And I even say that even if you're not consciously listening to the words, it's still getting into your subconscious. And the quality of these, I think, also sticks out when it comes to an audio platform. I'm quite a perfectionist when it comes to creating these audios, as I've mentioned, I'm sourcing these, you know, amazing composers globally, around the world. And my audio engineers and I spend a lot of time putting together the tracks and. And putting together the visualizations in the moment that a song drops, saying a certain word to make you feel a certain way. I am very obsessed with this cinematic experience, and I think that also is one of the big things that makes us stand apart. Everything has to feel cinematic. I want everyone listening to feel like they're the main character in their life. I can get into the science behind why this helps you transform as well, but I'll stop there and, you know, just say that you use activations like you listen to a podcast. Like, when I'm in the mood to listen to a podcast, I listen to a podcast. I'm in the mood to learn and actually, like, be quite engaged, you know, in my brain. Like, I want to learn something. I want to tangibly hear, you know, conversation, right? And then I listen to music when I'm in a certain mood, too. Maybe I just don't want any voice, and I just want something to tune out to. Maybe it's a certain workout, and I just really need to tune out. And then I listen to an audiobook when I'm in another mood. And then I listen to an activation when I'm in the mood to shift my energy and feel really alive and invigorated. And that could be in any moment of the day if I didn't have time to journal one Morning. Because I like to journal a lot. I'll listen to an activation while I'm getting ready, and then I feel the same results, if not more. So. This is really something that you can use with your day. You can have it, stack it. You don't have to carve out time from your day. We're already all so busy. So a lot of our users just use this in their daily life. They listen to one in the background once a day, three times a week, and they feel the shift. And it's really created a notable difference in tens of thousands of women's lives.

I think one of the biggest things that you said, that is the easiest thing that people can do. And whether you're listening to this and you're like, I don't know if that works. It. It works because what happens is when you are deciding what you're going to be thinking about for the day, that is what you're focused on and that's what you start seeing. Like, you're going to start seeing possibility. Rather than. If I wake up and I'm thinking of what I need to do that day and what's going wrong and what is scary about the world, I literally get more of that.

If.

If I have a big to do list in my head, guess how I'm going to feel all day? Like, I'm never going to get it done. And that's the energy that I'm in is like this pressure, this. Like there's not enough time. How am I going to get this done? Oh, my gosh, the world is so scary. Like, this is how. This is generally what I would say majority of the population is walking around with. And they wonder why they have no energy to make anything happen. Because if your brain is focused on negative things, like, your energy is so low. Because I used to do this to my. My clients in the gym, Mimi, which is like, so perfect for you to know that this is like, like so awesome and this works. So I would be like, asking my. When I owned a gym, I would have them, like, be curling, something heavy. I would have them with, like, an uncomfortable weight. And I'd be like, okay, I want you to think the most positive thought, like, something awesome in your life. Like, something that's gonna happen, something amazing while you're curling that weight. And I'm like, how's it feel? They're like, pretty good. I mean, it's really heavy. But then I would say, okay, I want you to think of something super sad, something really negative, something. And they would stop Lifting, they're like, I can't even lift this. Like, I feel so down. Like, they're like, I literally feel like I can't even lift this anymore. And I'm like, that is literally the power of our thoughts. Like, you can either feel like things are very doable, very tolerable, or when you're thinking negative, nothing in your life is going to feel tolerable. And that's why if you don't have people or friends in your life, like, I didn't in the beginning, I paid for em. Whether it was a lecture, an app, an event or podcast, whatever, an audiobook. I was like, I need other people to be filling in my brain right now while I am choosing, you know, if I was left up to my own devices, I'm choosing negative thoughts. So this is why you guys, it's so cool. Like this morning, while I was putting my makeup on Mimi, I listened to set goals for your day and feel inspired and which is one of her activations. And what I loved is that you were asking me, like, getting me intentionally into a place of like, what would be like, the most important thing for me to do today, essentially, like, what would move the needle the most for, like, what I want? I was like, that's such a great intentional question that I think we forget to ask ourselves because we get so caught up in like, the mundane and things we have to do. So this is the type of thing, you guys that you'll be experiencing if you do it. It's just questions we should be asking yourself and kind of like that reaction focusing. So who do you, who do you think activations are really for?

Well, a lot of our users are in a place in their life where they might be going through a transition or they're feeling stuck. A lot of our users come when they're feeling stuck. Like they feel like, you know, there's more to some area of their life. Listen, we have some users that come and try to, you know, Change a complete 180 every aspect of their life. But we also have users that live a pretty good life and they're pretty grateful for the life that they live, but they just want to feel more alive every day, or they just want to feel a bit more connected to themselves, or they just want to be a bit happier in their day to day life. We have a lot of success stories of people that have used the app, and some of my favorites are actually in my book, but I can share one of them with you. So we have this one woman named Ali that was using the app and she is a teacher, middle school teacher, and she, you know, had been pretty much making the same amount of money for years now and you know, teachers don't get paid enough. You know, she was not making a ton of money and she was pretty stressed about the amount that she was making. So she wanted to create more wealth in her life. And she actually heard me on a podcast a couple of years ago because I do a lot of these and she decided, you know what, I am going to just listen to these activations and take advantage of the two week trial and I'm just going to go all in, you know, what do I have to lose? So she downloaded the app, went to the website to download the app and I know just before I finish the story, you have a special link if everyone here wants to try the app for two weeks completely free, plus a massive discount on the yearly if you want to stay subscribed. So that's activations.com happy. And by the way, we can only offer discounts on the website, not the app store. So go to the website first to get the trial and then you can download the app after. But so Allie basically did the same thing. She heard me on a podcast, went to the website, signed up, got the two week free trial, went to the app store, downloaded the app, and then she just started listening probably once a day or five days a week. You know, she would just listen to these activations. A lot of the time it was the money focused ones. We have a lot of manifesting money and wealth, wealth and getting into your abundant energy activations. So really big category in the app because money is one of those things that you can really tune into with a new frequency and we can get into that later in the actual science behind how our biofeels, the energy inside and around us actually attract like energy and how we can become the type of person that actually has a certain level of wealth, that experiences wealth in a different way with our self image. So going back to the point though, so Ali, she was listening to these activations in this two week free trial and she started feeling very different after listening just in the background of her life. I think she listened in the car while she was driving to to work. I think she'd listened to the anytime category then and maybe at night, you know, while she was getting ready for bed. And it was just very casual. She didn't think much of it. It wasn't, you know, big deal. But she would listen to these. Okay. And soon enough she got this crazy, random offer, okay? One of her old students came to her with this, like, consulting gig, and she basically doubled her income just from this one opportunity. And she doesn't think it's a coincidence that it was because she started doing this work and really tuning in and resetting her frequency. And to say the least, she's been subscribed for many years and she will be a forever subscriber. She also just said that she felt confused. Completely different, you know, after using this for two weeks. And at the end of the day, you know, we live one life. We want to feel good. Our lives are. You know, we feel like they're so long and big and they are. But the reality is that our life is actually made up of the moment that we're in right now, in this exact moment. We are not experiencing the past or the future. We're only ever living in the moment. So the quality of those moments is everything. So even if, you know, Ally didn't manifest this crazy opportunity that doubled her income that year, you know, she says it, she still loves to use this because it just makes her feel good, you know? So I love that you listened to the getting ready one this morning. It just changes your state. I feel so passionate about this because for so long I felt so lost. And for so long I felt like a shell of myself. And I felt really sad that I wasn't reaching my potential in life. And it really scared me to wake up one morning when I'm, you know, 85 years old and look back on my life and feel regret because that, like, connection with how short life is really started to get to me at that. That point in my life, and it really started to scare me. So, you know, really just doing everything I could to tune into that potential to create the life of my dreams and to now hear how this work has helped so many people feel the same. Like, that's the biggest. Why for me, Lori, honestly, it's like we should all have the gift of feeling good every day. I just want to feel good. This is what this work is about. It's about feeling good and creating a beautiful future for yourself. And that shift internally really exudes externally with your energy, your biofield. I write about this in my book. We all have biofields, or energy fields, some people call them, that span three to six meters around us. And this is measured by science. Like, you can measure biofields. And our biofields are made up of energy, and it comes from us. We are the source of this energy. And there are so many things to prove that this work works, that this work of, of changing your beliefs, of. Of really putting yourself out there and listening to new things and thinking new thoughts and designing a new self image. There is literally proof everywhere that this works. I like to say this quote, I don't know where. Where it's from. I think I haven't been able to source it, but I heard it somewhere and it says something like, you know, spiritualists will call it the law of attraction. Christians will call it prayer. Atheists will call it the placebo effect. Scientists will call it quantum physics. It's literally the same thing in different languages. And personally, you know, I don't know exactly what I even believe in. I'm. I'm kind of open to all potentials, but all I know is that there is the truth in between all of that. The same thing in different languages. And I've seen firsthand how it's transformed my life and thousands of others of lives that I've. I've seen kind of through this work over time. And it's. It's a really good time to start now. You know, I feel like if we're.

Even breaking it down at like, the most basic level for like, skeptical people, you know, which I think most people who listen to my podcast aren't. But for anybody who's just like, okay, how does this work? You know, I want you to think about a time when you have been in a room and someone walks in and they're just like, super outgoing, they're looking up, their body language is super open, their arms aren't crossed, they look like they want to talk to you. They're armed with questions that are amazing or a story. Like, they're just. You're like, whoa, how do some people just have it like, you know, a woman walks in and you're like, whoa, what is that? What that is, is someone who's done a lot of work to feel confident, to feel certain, to like, be exuding that energy. And on the most basic level, even talking about, like, if you were an employer, you know, I'm now an employer. It's like, I want to work with the person who's enthusiastic, who's looking up, who's open, who has that great energy, who's, like, confident in what they do. And this is all work that is done by what we're talking about. Like, you have to be thinking of what you want. You have to be thinking of who you want to be. You have to be visualizing that future self. And if we had to pick who we wanted to hang out with, who we wanted to hire, who we wanted. In our circles, we would pick the people who are doing work like this mentally, like they're not thinking negative thoughts, they're not thinking of what they don't want in their life. So this is really helping you become that person who quote unquote, becomes a magnet. And you're like, oh, why do they want to work with these people? That's why.

And the biggest thing is actually the trick to all of this and simplifying the art of transformation. It all comes down to being the person you want to be now before the things that you want materialize into real world actual experiences. So the whole, you know, basis behind the work that I do, the work that I teach, activations, it's all about training your self image to be different. It's all about reprogramming your identity to be the future self now. That is all that it is. These activations help you live your future now. They help you step into your future self in this exact moment in time. And when you do that, everything in your life starts to change. Because it all starts when your self image, your identity changes. Think about your self image like it is the core of an onion and there are all these layers outside of it. You can try to change the outside layers, like your habits, for example. But if you have are trying to change a habit and you haven't changed your self image first, that is why you keep failing and not being, and you're not being consistent with that habit because you haven't gone to the root yet. You haven't changed your self image yet. You have not changed how you see yourself yet. And that's what so many people get wrong. And that's why personal development and transformation get so over complicated. I wish more people knew this. It's all about just changing your self image first. And I can give a very simple example. You know, if, if you see yourself as the type of person who lives in a very fit, healthy body. Okay, let's say, you know, for me, I used to hate working out. Now I love to go to my Pilates classes and I love to take care of my body. Really, really see myself as the type of person that lives in a body that is happy and healthy and looks and feels a certain way, to be totally honest. So for me, when I book in, you know, my Pilates class or decide to eat something healthy at a restaurant, it comes naturally to me. There's no resistance in my mind thinking, oh, I really like you know, sometimes, of course, I don't feel as inspired or motivated, but my baseline is like, oh yeah, this is just what I do. It's how I treat myself. It's who I am, right? And the same thing would happen. I'm not a runner, but if I wanted to be, I would change my self image first before starting to be a runner. You know, a runner would feel weird in the morning when they don't run. Like you feel weird when you don't do that thing. Whereas someone who does not identify as a runner feels like it's really hard to go put your running shoes on in the morning and go for a run. The same thing goes when it comes to finances and career. I have seen firsthand what your self image can do to your income. And let me tell you, it is everything. It is literally everything. I walk into a room now and I feel very confident in the level of success that I've achieved. And therefore even before I achieved this level, by the way, I embodied this essence. And that is what created more of that into my life. That is what, you know, magnetized certain opportunities and people towards me. That is how I have been able to feel confident in certain decisions that I make in hiring certain people and making these big moves. It's because that self image came first before the thing manifested. So the self image is massive. And if we want to stay on the topic of simplifying and transformation, I can tell you my two step process to transformation.

Yeah, go for it.

So I again, I like the quick route, I like the shortcut. I like change to be effortless. You know, listen, I am the type of person that wants the quick route, that wants it now, that is impatient. And this is what I have found to be true. If you want to condense any personal development book you've ever read or any, you know, esoteric book you've read, any scientific book you have read about personal transformation, it comes down to these two styles. Steps. The first step is clarity. To create your dream life, you must get crystal clear on who your future self is. You must get crystal clear on her frequency, on how it feels to be her energetically in your body. You need to know what it's like to be her now just in your body, physically, energetically, because your energy becomes a magnet to what it exudes, right? So clarity is number one. And the step number two is becoming. You must then become your future self in everyday moments, in the boring, mundane moments in your life, when you're waiting in line at the grocery store, when you're walking your dog in the morning you need to just consistently show up as her, show up as her in her energy. And that is exactly precisely what activations help you do. They help you rewire your brain in these everyday moments. Be your future yourself in your 5 minute walk with your dog in the morning when you're putting on your makeup, you know when you're getting ready to go out like in those everyday little moments when you are embodying your future self energy, you're taking advantage of classical conditioning. We've all heard of the Pavlov dog theory. Pavlov rings the bell, the dog salivates. Classical conditioning. Pairing a new thought or a new action with a certain thought and putting them together and getting a visceral response in your body. So you can actually do that when you listen to activations. That's what they're designed to do. It's literally designed to hack transformation and it is so amazing that this exists because it makes it.
