Hello everyone, welcome back to another episode of Cani Crystals the podcast. I hope that you're all doing really, really well. What a week it's been, what an absolute week of it. I've got so much to update you all on this week, so I'm just going to get straight into it. So the first thing to note, right, is that I have finally found a venue for Manifest 2027. I'm so excited. Now, to be frank with you all, I started this whole adventure of trying to find a new venue probably about a month before this year's event. It was at some point in May, and I'd whittled it down to about 20 venues that we could potentially go and have a look at. But after the event, we sold 200 tickets straight off the bat to people that were already in the room, and reading everyone's feedback forms about how we'd outgrown this year's venue before we even got inside, I just started thinking bigger. So I sat down with Julie in me office, and I had me moldavite in me hand, And we were looking up all these venues, booking viewings to go and have little tours of each, but none of them were actually suitable. And I think the Assembly Rooms where we had it this year was like the biggest hall with the additional rooms that we needed. And so I went on to me Instagram stories, I asked you lot for a few recommendations, and everyone kept on suggesting places that I'd either already viewed and ruled out, or I just knew that they didn't have the additional space that I wanted and needed. Because not only did we need a main hall that could fit like 400 people plus, we also needed a huge space for the exhibitor village, at least one workshop room that could probably fit around 100 people in, a green room for speakers, a room for activations, all that jazz. But following your feedback, people also said that they wanted a quiet space to sit and have coffee, and a cloakroom to pop their belongings in, and a secondary workshop room to run alongside the other workshop room, And so I just decided to sit one afternoon a few weeks ago, and I wrote down every single thing, like every single property that I needed from the venue to make it the best possible event that it could be. And once I had this list, I popped my Moldavite on top of it, and it was sat on my desk for a while, and I just said something to it like, "Come on then, Moldo, show—" because I call my Moldavite Moldo, by the way. "Come on then, Moldo, show me how good this event can get." Show me how good it can actually get for 2027. Now, that same day, Julie had an email that popped up on her laptop while we were talking about Virtue Motors, the car company. Bear this in mind. And she mentioned, oh, Virtue have got an arena, but I think they might be a bit expensive. So to fill you all in, it's not an arena like where Beyoncé would come and play, for example. Well, I mean, she might. It's basically a basketball arena, but they fully carpet it out for events like this, and they can hold up to 3,500 people. Now don't panic, we're not going for that number. And so I just went to view it, they showed me around, and I instantly fell in love with it. But there were a few little things that I wasn't keen on, such as the seats. You know them bucket seats that you get when you go to gigs at arenas? It was like those, and I thought, nah. My audience, some of my audience are like 50, 60 plus. I can't have people sat in those chairs for 16 hours across 2 days. People will be suing us. And I also want to keep the intimacy of it all as well, because I think having 3,500 people in an arena, it's not very intimate, is it? I think that intimacy kind of gets lost in an arena setting. And so I went, I visited a couple of other venues that were okay but nothing special, didn't quite fit the brief and stuff.. And so there I am driving along, and I shouted at me moldavite who was sat there in me cup holder, and I just went, come on, give me a sign, help me out here, what do I need to do? And just like that, clear as day on the radio, the woman who was talking said, patience is a virtue. My mind just went straight back to, oh my God, Virtu Arena, she's just said virtue. If that is not a sign then I don't know what the hell is. So thank you, Mr. Muldo. And so I arranged a second viewing, but this time I dragged Julie along, and I told Julie about what I liked, what I disliked about this place. And the team there mentioned that we could have a little look at the layout, and we could change the layout around where it seats about 650 people, and then we could utilize all the space behind. Well, honestly, I was shook. And then to top it all off, I said, but yeah, look at the seats. And the lady showing us around said, go on, go and sit on one. So you could have knocked me down with a feather. Those seats are probably more comfortable than my own couch at home. I was gobsmacked. They were plastic, right? But I didn't understand it. They were like cushioned plastic. It was very soft. They, I don't know, they like molded to the groove of your ass. Honestly, it's like the Moldavite knew exactly where I was destined to have this event. And so we looked around a bit more and they hit every single thing that was on my list. They had 2 workshop rooms of over 100 in capacity. They've got a green room, a quiet seating space. They've got room for 650 people. And to top it all off as well, they also have a free car park. A free— I'm sorry, a free city centre car park with 300 spaces. So basically, if you're coming from elsewhere in the country, you can drive up, you can leave your car here all weekend and not have to worry about any city centre parking. How wild is that? What other events do that? Tell me, please, I'm dying to know. And so me and Julie, we sat outside in her car visualising how it's all going to come together and what this all looks like. And so I made an offer that afternoon on the price, and guess what? They fucking went and accepted it, didn't they? Can you believe it? Manifest 2027 is going to be in an arena. What has happened? What has happened? This is the third manifest that we're going to be having, and we're in arena territory now. I am buzzing. This place though, honestly, it has so much potential, and it also gives us lots of space to grow and to decorate it as well how we want with all of our props and our staging. There are no limitations to what we can do here. It is going to be absolutely insane. I was even looking at blimps the other day, and Julie was trying to rope us back in, and she was like, why do you want a blimp. And I was like, I want a blimp, like a big helium blimp off the roof that just says Manifest 2027 so everyone can see where it is and it's good for marketing and stuff. And she was like, no. So roughly a third of the tickets have sold to people already that were at this year's event because we sold 200 and we've got 650 seats. So we've got 450 tickets remaining already, and the tickets haven't even gone on sale yet. I just find that wild. But if you want to come to Manifest 2027, you can get yourself on the priority list right now on the website at www.mani-fest.uk. The early bird sale goes live this time next week, so 10 AM on Friday the 31st of July, those early bird tickets will be on sale, okay? And only the people on the priority list will receive the link to get their tickets. So head on over right now. I'll pop the link in the show notes as well underneath this episode. If you just scroll down under my face, you'll see it all there. So you can even do this while you continue to listen on. It'll take you 20 seconds tops, and it won't even interrupt your listening to me. How good is that? So yeah, Manifest 2027, it's going to be incredible. Right, next up in my week, I was chatting to the lovely Sylvia from Sylvia Sutherland Hypnotherapy, who was— she was one of the trained firewalkers at Manifest this year, if you attended. And I realized that she did past life regression therapy. Now I've been doing a lot of work around money mindset at the moment and healing all of me old past wounds in terms of money and abundance and self-worth, all that kind of stuff. And I've always been curious about past life regression. Now whether you believe in past lives or not, just bear with us because honestly I went into this with an open mind. I wasn't going in thinking, right, I'm definitely about to meet one of me past selves, but equally I wasn't going in trying to disprove it either. I just thought, let's see what happens. Just see, see what happens and let's go with the flow. So I met with Sylvia, and before we'd even started, it just felt really relaxed and lovely, like really calm, really cozy, really safe. And she explained exactly how this session would work, because I think a lot of people imagine hypnosis is as like what you see on stage, where someone's suddenly clucking like a chicken or forgetting their own name or not able to speak. It couldn't have been further from that. So Sylvia explained that you are basically completely aware the whole time, so you can hear everything that's going on, you can speak whenever you want to, you can stop the session whenever you want to. You're not asleep, you're not unconscious, and nobody's really controlling your mind or anything. It's not like that kind of hypnosis. It's more like being guided into a really deep state of relaxation where your conscious mind takes a bit of a back seat and your subconscious has more room to speak. So before we even started, she asked me what I'd like to get out the session, and I said that I wanted to explore whether there was anything connected to me money mindset. Was there like any old stories or beliefs or patterns that I was still carrying around that I wasn't even aware of? And like, whether they came from this life or another life, or was simply my subconscious creating metaphors, I was completely open to whatever came up during that session. So she had us lying back in me chair, closing me eyes, focusing on me breathing, and she slowly guided me deeper and deeper into this state of relaxation. It felt like, you know, when you're, uh, just about to drift off to sleep. You know, when you're like still aware of everything that's going on around you, but you're also dreaming a little tiny bit. It was almost like that. So she guided me through these different visualizations and helping me let go of all the noise in my mind And eventually she invited us to walk through a doorway into whatever memory wanted to show itself first. And this is where it starts to get really interesting, right? You're gonna love this, right? So the first thing that surprised us was that I wasn't actually transported to somewhere ancient or anything like that. I was standing on the cliff tops at Marsden over in Sunderland, and it's somewhere that I've been plenty of times walking the dog. I used to go there as a kid. The sea was incredibly rough. There was massive waves crashing against the rocks below. It was very cloudy. The wind was blowing. Everything just felt really dramatic. And then something appeared that I wasn't expecting. There was this black spiral metal staircase standing there, and it almost looked like one of those, you know, those industrial fire escape staircases. And at the very top was a doorway. So Sylvia said to us, and she asked like what I wanted to do,, and I remember saying like, "I'm gonna walk up," and she was like, "Okay, just take your time." So I climbed the staircase, the door at the top was open, and Sylvia said, "How do you feel? Do you want to walk through it?" And I was like, "Yeah, I'm excited." And the second I walked through that doorway, it was like I wasn't on Earth anymore. I was in space. Now when I say space, I don't mean blackness with tiny little dots, white stars. I'm on about, if you have ever Googled a picture of the universe, you know, where it's all like different colors, like all pastel colors and stuff. Like, I remember looking around, seeing all of that, and it felt so peaceful. There was no noise. It didn't feel frightening whatsoever. It felt like I was in the cosmos. That's literally the only way I can describe it. Like, I wasn't on Earth, I was in space. I was a million billion trillion miles away from where we are right now, and it was just so silent. And things were moving, like the stars were moving, you could see the galaxies moving. It was like I could see the entire universe, that's how mental it was. And Sylvia, she said to us like, look down at your feet. And this bit still gives me goosebumps, right? Because when I look down at my feet, I didn't have any feet. And then I sharp realized I didn't actually have a body. I was just energy. I was just there. I was just observing. So there wasn't any fear whatsoever. It actually felt incredibly free, and that's the only way I can describe it. Almost like I'd remembered something that I'd forgotten. Like, it was as if I was just consciousness floating within this huge universe, if that makes sense. And I remember saying to Sylvia that it made me realize how unbelievably vast the universe actually is and how tiny our worries are in comparison. Like all the things that we spend hours stressing over, everything just suddenly felt so insignificant. It was almost as though whatever I was experiencing was saying, "You're worrying far too much. Everything is much bigger than you think." So, after spending a little while there, Sylvia gently guided me to allow the next memory to appear, and almost instantly, I saw a flash of like white, I think it was, and it was like I saw these gigantic owl eyes coming at me. So, you know, like, I don't know if you've ever seen owl eyes. Owl eyes are hard to describe. You know, like if you think of an alien's eyes, that's what I thought it was at first. I thought it was like a typical, you know, cartoon alien's eyes coming towards me, and then I realized it was an owl, right? And we'll come on to that in a while. I'll circle back to that. Um, but yeah, almost instantly everything changed when those owl eyes hit me. And I found myself standing in the middle of a huge desert. And when Sylvia said, 'Do you know where you are?' I said, 'No.' She said, 'Do you know what year it is?' And for some reason I said, '1422,' although I couldn't tell you exactly how I knew that. It was just there in my mind. When I turned and looked around, there was absolutely nothing around me for miles. So it was daytime, it was the middle of the desert, it was very hot, there was like the wind blown, like the sand around, you know what I mean? It was just endless sand. And I remember looking down and noticing that I was wearing these brown leather sandals and a long white robe. And beside me, over my left shoulder, was a camel. And Sylvia kept asking gentle questions like, who are you? What are you doing there? How do you feel? And the answers that were coming out of my mouth, I don't even know where they were coming from. Like, I just suddenly said— when she said, "Who are you?" I said, "I'm an outcast." An outcast. I didn't give a name. I said, "I'm an outcast." And she asked why, and without even thinking, I replied, "Because I was dishonest to my friends and family." Now, what's interesting, right, is that I had no story attached to this whatsoever. I couldn't tell you exactly what I'd done or who those people were. It wasn't like I was watching a film. It was more like simply knowing something. I just knew that was why I was there. I was outcast because I'd been dishonest to my friends and family. And I can just remember feeling incredibly alone. Like, I wasn't frightened or anything, I just felt really isolated. And then something really strange started happening. So the sand beneath us started disappearing, almost like hundreds of little wormholes were opening up in the distance across the sand, uh, all over the desert floor. The sand was being pulled down into them. Like hundreds of miniature wormholes. It honestly looked like the memory itself was kind of breaking apart, if that makes sense. So Sylvia simply encouraged me to observe it. She didn't try to interpret anything while I was in the session. She just asked me to notice what was happening. Now, eventually that scene faded away too, and then the owl eyes came at me again, hit me, and like a flash, the next memory was completely different again. I couldn't tell you what year it was this time, but it must have been the 1900s. Um, I found myself standing on a theater stage. And when I say a theater stage, I mean an old style— how do I describe this? Behind me was this enormous red velvet curtain. It was like an old style theater. Straight away I said to Sylvia that I looked a bit like Charlie Chaplin. Like, I don't think I was Charlie Chaplin, but that sort of look— the little mustache, the suit, the bowler hat— that kind of era. And I remember looking out to the audience from the stage and there were only 2 people sat there, one at the top left and one at the bottom right of these sloped seats. Neither of those people seemed remotely interested in me being on the stage. One was slouched in the seat looking completely disengaged, and the other was just looking around, looking at her nails. So I looked up, and I remember noticing a man up in the projection room smoking a cigarette while working the projector. And again, Sylvia asked us how I felt. So the answer that I gave this time surprised us both because I said, "Content." And then I continued with, "But disappointed." So I said, "Content but disappointed." Not devastated, not upset, just content. Almost like I loved what I was doing regardless of who was watching, but there was still a part of me that wished that more people cared. And then throughout the whole session, between each of these memories, like I say, I kept getting those, um, huge owl eyes. Nothing else, just these huge enormous owl eyes looking back at me. And it happened over and over and over again at the end of this session. And I don't know what any of this means, but obviously I've gone into it on Google and stuff. Maybe they were genuine past lives, maybe my subconscious created incredibly symbolic stories, or maybe it was a mixture of both. I don't know. But what fascinated me about this whole past life regression thing wasn't whether it was objectively true. It was what it made me think about afterwards. Because after, after the session, like I say, I went on Google, I started reflecting on everything, and I realized that every single scene seemed to carry a lesson. That first scene in the universe, in the cosmos, it felt like such a huge reminder that I spend far too much time worrying about little things that in the grand scheme of the universe they are tiny. I didn't have a body, I didn't have a business, I didn't have a bank account, I didn't have followers or friends or podcast charts or even tickets to sell. I was just energy, and there was something so peaceful about that. It reminded me that before all the labels and before all the achievements and all the stress, we're just souls having a human experience. It made me realize how often I attach my worth to what I'm creating instead of simply just remembering who I already am. And then there was the desert. This is the one that stayed with me the most because I honestly can't stop thinking about it. I was completely alone and I somehow knew that I'd been cast out because I'd been dishonest with my friends and family. Now, I don't necessarily think that that means that I'd gone around telling lies. I wonder if the dishonesty was symbolic, like, was I being dishonest towards myself? Was I pretending to be someone that I wasn't? Was I hiding parts of myself, or was I abandoning who I truly was in order to fit in or to be accepted? And then when I started looking at it through the lens of money mindset, it became even more interesting because how many of us secretly believe that becoming wealthy means that people are going to outcast us and judge us? That if we become too successful, we'll lose friends? That somehow abundance changes us into someone that people won't like anymore. Maybe that scene was just there to remind me that one of the deepest fears that many of us carry isn't actually about money at all, it's about belonging. And then the sand starting to disappear as well into those tiny holes, like the memory was dissolving. I wonder if that represented those old beliefs beginning to fall away, as if me subconscious was saying, you've seen this now, you don't need to carry it anymore, let's let it go. And then the theatre was fascinating as well because there I was on stage looking like Charlie Chaplin doing what I loved with hardly anyone watching. And when Sylvia asked how I felt, I said, "Content but disappointed." And like I said, that answer has stayed with me because it feels so honest. That's how I feel right now— content but disappointed. And I think all of us have dreams that we'd love more people to see, don't we? Whether you're an artist or a business owner or a content creator, someone quietly trying to make a difference in the world, there's a part of us that wants our work to be seen. Not because we need applause, but because we know that it could genuinely help people. And it almost made me ask myself, would I still do what I do if nobody was clapping for me? And thankfully, the answer is yes. I'd still record these podcasts. I'd still be teaching manifestation. I'd still be writing me books. I'd still be running Manifest. Of course I wanted all to grow, but that scene reminded me that fulfillment has to come before recognition, not after it. And then those owl eyes as well, those owl eyes that I kept on seeing. I started reading about it online, and across so many different cultures they represent wisdom, intuition, and seeing what other people can't see. Oh, and navigating through darkness as well. It almost felt as though They weren't there to give me answers. They were there to remind me to keep asking questions. And the more I sat with the experience, the more I realized that none of those memories were actually about money. Not one of them involved riches or treasures or gold. I honestly thought when we started the session, I'm going to be a pirate here, and I bet any money I find this like treasure chest and I'm like dripping in gold or something. But no, they were all about identity. Like, who are you when everything else is stripped away? Who are you when nobody's watching? Who are you when you stop trying to prove yourself? Or who are you when you're simply just energy? And maybe that's why I went in looking for money blocks and I came out with something much, much deeper. Because maybe money has never been the thing that needs healing. Maybe it's the relationship that we have with ourselves. Maybe abundance isn't created by chasing more. Maybe it's just created by remembering who we are before fear convinced us that we weren't enough. So whether you believe in past life regression or not, I genuinely found the whole experience fascinating. Even if you see it purely as your subconscious speaking through symbols and stories, there's still so much you can interpret and learn about yourself. And for me, that's been the biggest takeaway, because sometimes the answers that we're searching for they don't arrive as facts. They arrive as feelings or knowing or metaphors, or as questions that quietly stay with you long after that session has ended. And so that's exactly why I love that experience from start to finish. And then just to add on to all of that work around money, that same afternoon I had an energy session with Cheryl Reed from Now Is Your Time 2. You might remember a few months ago she was on the podcast with Donna. They both spoke at Manifest this year as well, to anyone that came. And the funny thing is, I'd literally come out of this past life regression with all these questions swirling around my head, and I'd been thinking about worthiness, identity, belonging. And then I went straight into this session with Cheryl, and I was telling her about these really heavy blocks that I still seem to have around money. And I was also telling her about what I'd shared on last week's podcast, how normally I'm all about productivity, and if I'm not doing something or building something or creating something It's like I almost feel this huge sense of guilt, but lately I've been trying to live a little softer, to enjoy the journey instead of constantly sprinting towards the next milestone. So she listened for a while and then she asked me one simple question, and it was something like, what triggers you the most in your business? And I answered almost instantly, and I said like, oh, that's easy, it's a customer complaint. And I don't mean someone just being nasty, I mean even if someone emails to say that their parcel arrived damaged, or the parcel man's left it with their neighbor, or I've accidentally sent the wrong crystal, it's like my stomach drops because I know I've let people down. Because I pride myself on looking after people, like I genuinely care. So in me head, one complaint suddenly becomes, "Oh my God, this is it. Canny Crystals is over. Shut the business down." And I know that sounds absolutely ridiculous when you say it out loud, but honestly That's where my brain goes. So Cheryl looked at us and she simply asked, "And then what happens?" And I said, "Well, people will think I've got terrible customer service." "And then what happens?" "They'll stop buying." "And then?" "I won't be able to keep the business open." "And then?" "I won't be able to pay meself." "And then?" And I sat there for a second and I went, "Johnny would probably leave us." and then I'd lose the house, and then I'd have to move back into me mam's house. And then Cheryl went, and then? And this is where it got really emotional, because for those of you who don't know, I grew up in a really deprived area. It's somewhere that I worked incredibly hard to leave, and a lot of me family still live there. And so many of them have had cancer over the years. Like, whether that's coincidence or environment or something else entirely, I don't know, but somewhere along the way, my subconscious had created this story and I found meself saying, "I'd end up back in me old bedroom at me mam's working a 9-to-5 job that I hate just to survive." And then Cheryl looked at us and went, "And then?" And without even thinking, I said, "I'd die young from cancer." Honestly, the second those words left me lips, I burst into tears because I'd never consciously thought that before, like ever. Yet somehow my nervous system had quietly built this entire narrative on this chain of events. That one customer complaint leads to losing my business, leads to losing my home, leads to moving back to Durham, leads to dying of cancer. How insane is that? And that's when Cheryl said something that completely stopped us in me tracks. She said, "So every single time an email lands in your inbox, your nervous system isn't responding to a customer." It's responding to death. And I was just sat there and I went, bloody hell, Cheryl. I was like, this is going a bit deep, isn't it? We're only like 20 minutes into the session. But then I thought, like, no wonder I've spent years feeling anxious every time I hear my email notification ping. And no wonder me body goes into fight or flight over things that logically I know I can solve. Like, my nervous system wasn't reacting to the present moment, it was reacting to a story that I'd invented to ironically protect myself. So Cheryl guided me through an energy healing session to help my body finally let go of that story. And this is the weird bit, right? Because within a couple of days of all this happening, something started to shift. Now, before anyone starts messaging me saying, "Mark, was it definitely the healing?" I don't know. I honestly don't know. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't. Maybe it was the healing, maybe it was the hypnotherapy. Maybe it was just that my nervous system had finally stopped operating from fear for the first time in years, but this is what happened: one of me Instagram posts hit over 600,000 views in about 2 days. I've gained around 700 new followers. Crystal sales have absolutely flown out across the weekend. People have started joining the priority list for Manifest, and the really strange thing is that I hadn't actually done anything different. I wasn't working harder, I wasn't posting more, I wasn't forcing anything. It's almost like life just felt a bit lighter, and I think that's been the biggest lesson from this entire week, that we spend so much time trying to manifest more money, more followers, more opportunities, because we all want success, right? But when you break it down, the real work isn't attracting more, It's removing everything within us that's unconsciously pushing it away. Because if your nervous system associates success with rejection, or money with losing people, or a customer complaint with literally dying like me, then no amount of affirmations in the world are going to override that. Your subconscious will always choose what feels safest over what you consciously say that you want. And that's why this week has been so fascinating for me. I thought I was doing money mindset work. What I've actually been doing is identity work. Learning that me worth isn't tied to me business. Learning that I don't have to earn me place in the world, or that I can be seen without constantly proving meself. Now that for me is abundance. Yeah, not constantly chasing more, but finally feeling safe enough to receive it. And I remember being sat there like, okay, visibility is next. I'm going to work on that. And no sooner had I had that thought, I get a WhatsApp message from Matt Cook, the author of Beyond Wanting, and it was a voice note, and he explained that him and his wife were setting up a podcast together and they would love to have me there in London recording with them to do an episode all about crystal energy. It just feels like this last week or so has been an absolute whirlwind, it really does. And I think that's probably the note that I want to end on this week because when I look back at everything that's happened, it all seems to carry the same message. You know, the venue, the past life regression, the energy work, the Instagram growth, the crystal sales, the podcast invitation— none of that came from me forcing harder. I've barely done anything this week. It came from me getting clearer, softening a little bit, trusting more, and just finally starting to look at what's going on underneath the surface. I think so, so many of us believe that the answer is always just to do more, like to post more on Instagram, to work more, to push more, to plan more. But sometimes the thing that's creating the biggest shift, it's not another strategy, it's just asking yourself why your body feels unsafe with the very thing that you keep saying that you want. Because you can say that you want more money, but if part of you believes that money will make people reject you, your subconscious is going to resist it. You can say that you want to be seen and you want to be visible, but if visibility feels like judgment or humiliation, you'll keep finding ways to self-sabotage and hide it. Does that make sense? It doesn't mean that you're broken. It just means that there's a part of you trying to protect you, even if the way that it's protecting you no longer makes any sense. So just have a little think over the next week. What is it that you keep saying that you want, and what do you secretly believe might happen if you actually receive that? So write it down if you need to. Like, what would more money mean? What would greater visibility mean? What would success ask you to become? Because those answers might honestly surprise you, okay? But anyway, that's enough deep soul searching for one episode. I feel like I've lived about 17 different lives this week. One of them possibly in 1422 with a camel. So I'm just going to leave it right there. Okay, so thank you so much for listening as always. I hope that you've enjoyed this episode.

Most people don't realize how much of their personal information is being bought and sold every day. Data brokers are making billions pulling details about you from public records and the internet, then packaging and selling it, usually without your consent. That's how your information lands in the hands of scammers, spammers, even stalkers. It's why you get endless robocalls and why ads seem to follow you everywhere. That's where Aura comes in. Aura actively removes your data from broker sites and keeps it off. They also instantly alert you if your information shows up in a breach or on the dark web. But Aura goes beyond data protection. With one app, you get a VPN, antivirus, password manager, spam call protection, dark web monitoring, and even up to $5 million in identity theft insurance. All backed by 24/7 US-based fraud support. Other companies might sell just credit monitoring, or just a VPN. Aura gives you all of it together, at the same price competitors charge for just one service.
