Unlocking New Beliefs and Tuning Into Our Intuitive ADHD Energy

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:00:49

Welcome to the ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:00:52

I'm Kate Moore Youssef and I'm a wellbeing and lifestyle coach, EFT practitioner, mum to four kids and passionate about helping more women to understand and accept their amazing ADHD brains.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:01:05

After speaking to many women just like me and probably you, I know there is a need for more health and lifestyle support for women newly diagnosed with adhd.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:01:15

In these conversations, you'll learn from insightful guests, hear new findings, and discover powerful perspectives and lifestyle tools to enable you to live your most fulfilled, calm and purposeful life wherever you are on your ADHD journey.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:01:30

Here's today's episode.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:01:35

Hi everyone.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:01:36

Welcome to a compilation episode.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:01:40

I'm doing a few of these over the summer and I am handpicking some of my favorite guests and the conversation, which I know really resonated with you guys, but also with me and combining them together to help give you an even more elevated episode, even more wisdom and insights and bringing guests which I know have been hugely beneficial for many of you and today is no different.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:03

I'm absolutely delighted to bring to you a compilation episode with Caroline Britton and Catherine Morgan.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:11

Now, Caroline and Catherine are actually friends.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:13

They've done some work together, which is one of the reasons why I wanted to bring them together on this episode.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:17

And I'll introduce, introduce Catherine first.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:19

Now, Catherine is a multi award winning qualified financial coach advisor.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:25

She's also a financial abuse specialist, inherited family trauma healer and financial therapist who specializes in helping women feel more deserving of holding money through somatic, therapeutic and practical tools.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:39

And Catherine is on a mission to reduce financial anxiety and increase financial empowerment and resilience for 1 million people worldwide.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:47

Now, Catherine has also been diagnosed with ADHD.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:49

She has a child with ADHD.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:02:51

And the combination of all of this, of understanding the difficulty sometimes that many neurodivergent people can feel with earning money, holding money, asking for more money and feeling worthy and deserving of earning an abundant salary.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:07

So, so many nuanced layers to this and we really delve into this with Catherine.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:12

I'm absolutely delighted to share this conversation with you.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:16

To compound this fantastic sort of energetic message.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:19

And when we understand the beliefs around money and the financial situations that we find ourselves in, my amazing friend Caroline Britton is the person for that.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:29

I've known Caroline for probably nearly five years now.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:33

Caroline's been pivotal in the evolution and the growth of my, I guess probably my life, my business.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:40

The way I have constantly sort of upleveled and stepped into the fear and broken down new boundaries and had to sort of look into those beliefs that are holding me back.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:52

And Caroline's been with me every step of the way.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:53

She's the most incredible coach, and she works more as, like, a gifted energy worker.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:03:59

She's a mentor to many, and she guides and is frequently described as a magic maker by those who work with her.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:04:05

And I can really sort of resonate with that.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:04:07

She really does weave something quite different to any coaches I've ever worked with.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:04:11

And her innate gifts are really unlocking people's connection, their potential and the power.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:04:18

And I know that she has transformed many, many people's lives through this.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:04:22

And it's through her, I've really understood about energy and the energy work and really leaning into that change our beliefs and our mindsets and our thoughts and our emotions.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:04:33

So I'm delighted to bring this kind of combination together.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:04:37

And so first, let's hear from Catherine Morgan.

Catherine Morgan: 00:04:41

And when women have money, we do incredible.

Catherine Morgan: 00:04:46

I mean, like, just the statistics around this.

Catherine Morgan: 00:04:50

Women, when they invest, they invest in ethical investments, ethical investments on the stock market.

Catherine Morgan: 00:04:56

They don't try and time the markets.

Catherine Morgan: 00:04:58

They're in the markets for longer.

Catherine Morgan: 00:05:00

They're investing in companies that are supportive, you know, not some of the sin stocks like tobacco and pornography companies and arms manufacturing companies.

Catherine Morgan: 00:05:10

They do good in the world, right?

Catherine Morgan: 00:05:12

So the more women that can have money and hold money means that we get to live in a better world.

Catherine Morgan: 00:05:18

We get to live almost enriched life.

Catherine Morgan: 00:05:21

And, you know, you can probably tell from my just my tone of voice right now, I feel so empowered to.

Catherine Morgan: 00:05:27

To help everyone to feel like they deserve.

Catherine Morgan: 00:05:32

They deserve this, right?

Catherine Morgan: 00:05:34

You deserve wealth in your life, not being a number in your bank account.

Catherine Morgan: 00:05:39

You deserve this, and you deserve this for yourself and for every single future generation ahead of us.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:05:45

So how can we change this narrative if someone's listening right now and they are saying, yes, I'm the first generation in my family who is striving for wealth and to hold on to wealth and to recognize, you know, through my adhd, I want to feel more, like you say, financially resilient.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:06:03

I want to prioritize my financial wellbeing.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:06:06

I want to ensure that I'm not being impulsive, I'm not spending overspending.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:06:11

I'm understanding my wealth and my money, and I'm not shutting things down and pretending my bank account doesn't exist.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:06:18

Where would you start?

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:06:20

Like, it feels overwhelming to get to that place.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:06:22

Like, where would you start for someone, like, what's the beginning of their journey?

Catherine Morgan: 00:06:26

So There's a few different ways to do this, and I know that you're an EFT practitioner as well.

Catherine Morgan: 00:06:31

And so one of the things I love to do is to first of all, try and identify a core money belief.

Catherine Morgan: 00:06:38

And I like to do that in the body, because when the logical mind tries to take over with this conversation, then we often end up with very different core sentences.

Catherine Morgan: 00:06:48

As inherited family trauma practitioner as well, we often will look at the demographics right back through the lineage of the family history.

Catherine Morgan: 00:06:56

So we actually look at a core belief sentence, which is actually gathered by just listening to your language, things that you're saying about money.

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:06

And so you could simply take, for example, what is the worst fear that you have about money?

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:12

And then what you do from that point is you then dive a little bit deeper into what is the worst thing about that.

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:21

They might.

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:22

I might, right?

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:24

And you'll get statements like, you know, I might be abandoned, or I might not be accepted, or I might not survive, or I might let you.

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:38

I might let my partner down.

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:40

You know, I might let my clients down.

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:42

You'll get into some more depth around those core sentences.

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:46

And in the inherited family trauma space, we actually look at who was abandoned, who wasn't accepted.

Catherine Morgan: 00:07:55

And that, for me, is a really incredibly powerful place to start, because a lot of the shame and the guilt that we carry around money doesn't even belong to us.

Catherine Morgan: 00:08:05

It literally has been handed down through the generations.

Catherine Morgan: 00:08:09

And when you can do a somatic practice of releasing some of that shame and the energy that sits around that shame, it's the most liberating experience, because no longer are you attaching that sense of identity, that past identity to yourself.

Catherine Morgan: 00:08:26

And it enables you to unlock what I would call more of an expansive energy.

Catherine Morgan: 00:08:31

So rather than feeling like we've been contracted, we are able to step into this place of expansion.

Caroline Britton: 00:08:37

Now.

Catherine Morgan: 00:08:38

I'm a really big believer in.

Catherine Morgan: 00:08:40

We can spend many hours, many investments, working on healing the past.

Catherine Morgan: 00:08:48

And we also, at the same time, get to work on creating an energy that sits around where we are right now in the present moment and where we are in the future.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:00

Now, a lot of people with ADHD in particular, or if for neurodivergence, can struggle with future work because, well, it's all about today.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:11

It's living in the moment.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:12

It's, you know, it's that impulse.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:14

So one of the things, one of the practices that I like to experience is to use heart breathing.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:21

And I'll literally.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:22

And I do this every single day, sometimes several times a day.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:26

And I'll just drop down my eyes and I'll place my hands over my heart.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:31

I'll connect into the heart's energy, which is the most powerful energy in your whole system.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:36

And I will just bring in a memory of a time when I felt love, appreciation or gratitude.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:43

And I bring in that memory.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:44

And it could be a past memory, it could be a memory of a celebration.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:48

It could just be in that moment, in that very moment of being consciously aware of I'm here today, this is who I am.

Catherine Morgan: 00:09:55

And standing in that really powerful place and I feel all of that emotion.

Catherine Morgan: 00:10:00

I imagine it's radiating around my entire body.

Catherine Morgan: 00:10:04

You know, you can do a lot of immersive work with this exercise.

Catherine Morgan: 00:10:08

And then I use that energy and I ask myself a question.

Catherine Morgan: 00:10:12

And the question is, and you can be quite specific, what is required of me when it comes to my finances today?

Catherine Morgan: 00:10:20

What is required of me and what it enables you to do is to really draw on the energy of that present moment.

Catherine Morgan: 00:10:28

And it also enables you to then start thinking about what energetically is something that is going to create movement.

Catherine Morgan: 00:10:35

And for me, movement is really helpful in the context of money management, especially for adhd, because the general traditional budgeting systems don't work.

Catherine Morgan: 00:10:48

Even some of the apps and things that you can use to automate budgeting and savings still don't sometimes work.

Catherine Morgan: 00:10:56

But when we come from a place of movement and expansion rather than masculine goal planning, things that are 10 years, you know, where do you see yourself in 10 years time?

Catherine Morgan: 00:11:06

Difficult for the brain to grapple around this.

Catherine Morgan: 00:11:08

So when you connect into the body, you connect into today and you are in a position where you've closed off anything that feels energetically contracting or able to drop into the expansion work, you feel good, your nervous system feels regulated, and then you can come from a place of right, what movement do I want to create around my finances today in this moment?

Catherine Morgan: 00:11:34

And it just gets rid of all of the needs, the shoulding energy, the waiting energy that can often be associated with adhd.

Catherine Morgan: 00:11:43

And I just think that's such a unique and very different way of looking at finances and managing finances.

Catherine Morgan: 00:11:51

Not looking at numbers, not looking at spreadsheets, you don't need to do any of those things.

Catherine Morgan: 00:11:56

You can outsource those to the bookkeepers and the accountants that have so much joy in doing those things and then get to focus your work on how do I want to feel, how can I expand this into the future, still do some healing work, right?

Catherine Morgan: 00:12:12

But sometimes we do too much healing work and we can get addicted to that loop, that cycle.

Catherine Morgan: 00:12:19

So it's really bringing it into the energy of today.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:12:24

And now let's hear from Caroline Britton.

Caroline Britton: 00:12:28

We have to work out what it is that suits us and take absolute responsibility.

Caroline Britton: 00:12:34

And another thing is that this isn't a nice to have.

Caroline Britton: 00:12:38

This is an absolute prerequisite for functioning to the best of your ability.

Caroline Britton: 00:12:44

And if you want to get more clarity and you want to access more guidance, you have to find and prioritize your modality for doing that.

Caroline Britton: 00:12:54

And I know a lot of us say we don't have time, but you'd be amazed how you can find it if you prioritize.

Caroline Britton: 00:13:00

And even if that's going and lying on your bed for five minutes with your phone off, I don't mind what it is, but what you want to be saying to the universe is I'm intentional about creating space to be guided to receive information from a balanced place.

Caroline Britton: 00:13:19

And this is a game changer.

Caroline Britton: 00:13:21

Like you want to know the secret to me creating seven figures in my business is that I every day I will connect, I will listen and I'll create some silence and then I will move from that place.

Caroline Britton: 00:13:34

Like that's a non negotiable for me.

Caroline Britton: 00:13:37

And the first thing I do, I mean I haven't even looked at my to do list.

Caroline Britton: 00:13:41

I've, I've meditated and I've connected in and I've journaled and I've been for a big walk.

Caroline Britton: 00:13:45

I haven't looked at my to do list and it's.

Caroline Britton: 00:13:47

What time is it now?

Caroline Britton: 00:13:48

It's half 11.

Caroline Britton: 00:13:49

So that's the thing is like we have to, I promise your listeners that there is clarity, wisdom, love, peace, information that's trying to get through to them.

Caroline Britton: 00:14:04

But you've got to create the space and you've got to create the silence at some point in your day to be able to access it.

Caroline Britton: 00:14:12

And if you can do that and start with five minutes a day, it's a game changer.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:16

Absolutely.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:17

And it's being intentional, isn't it?

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:19

Because like you say, we can just be reactive all day and then another day goes.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:24

But you know, things don't change until we make that decision.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:27

And yes, we can sort of have a victim like mentality of this happened to me and that happened to me and this person.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:34

But essentially we, we have to make that change and we have to make a decision when that ends and this new version of our life begins.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:43

And what we want, and we want what we want to be calling in and being open to, and I say this a lot to my clients, is like, well, what are you choosing?

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:52

What are you choosing?

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:53

Like, choose.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:54

Prioritize your wellbeing.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:14:56

You know, we hear huge amounts of sort of cyclical burnout in the neurodivergent community because we have these sensitive nervous systems where empaths, we are absorbing so much from so many different people and we don't like to say no.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:15:10

And we're people pleasers and perfectionists.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:15:12

And of course I'm generalizing in lots of different ways, but this is the themes that I'm.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:15:16

I'm hearing.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:15:17

And we don't think we're enough.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:15:19

So we're.

Caroline Britton: 00:15:19

Are we going to worthy?

Caroline Britton: 00:15:21

That's a big.

Caroline Britton: 00:15:22

I'm not worthy of prioritizing that.

Caroline Britton: 00:15:24

I'm not worthy of feeling that good.

Caroline Britton: 00:15:26

Like, and you are worthy.

Caroline Britton: 00:15:28

And if you believe you were worthy, how might you show up differently for yourself?

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:15:34

Yeah.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:15:35

And so I would love to say to anyone is like, where are you prioritizing this space in this time?

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:15:41

Because when we get that, that's when we hear the intuitive guidance and the wisdom that whatever you want to believe, whether that's just you having some space to hear your.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:15:50

The clarity, I think, you know, you said, or we're open to guidance because I genuinely believe that our community is very intuitive.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:00

And I've run programs based on the intuition and the inner wisdom and things that we can tune into for BE as being empaths.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:08

And instead of on the negative side of being an empath, where we feel drained and exhausted and burnt out, we unfortunately have, you know, lots of sort of chronic health conditions.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:18

How can we use this intuitive way of being to help us in our careers, in our families and our relationships, tuning out all the noise and actually tuning back into ourselves.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:30

And I know that you, you work so beautifully like this.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:33

I think you really, really understand sort of this divergent brain.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:36

How can someone, if someone's listening right now and they are thinking like, I'm so at the beginning of my journey, almost feels overwhelming, like I haven't got five years.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:46

And I remember when first starting to work with you, I mean, I didn't know any of this was coming, but I did want a quick fix and I did want something like click my fingers a big change.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:56

I want to find my purpose.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:57

I was like, I'm ready.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:16:59

And that purpose didn't come immediately.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:17:01

There was lots of U turns and bends and detours.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:17:05

How can you help someone find that patience when they do want some big change?

Caroline Britton: 00:17:11

One of the things I would do Is I would have something that I say out loud every day, which is like, universe, please make everything conspire in my favor to make my dreams come true and bring me clarity into my reality today.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:28

So we have something like that.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:29

And I'd write it on this.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:30

I.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:30

I do this.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:31

I get my clients to do it.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:32

I write it on a book, like a.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:34

A four pad.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:36

I have it open on my drawer so I see it many, many times a day.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:42

And then what I do underneath it is I write 1 to 21 for 21 days.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:46

And every day I say that statement maybe at least three times, but I would say probably eight, nine, ten times a day.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:54

This is the key.

Caroline Britton: 00:17:56

Every single day, I want you to make a note of any magic or any clarity that you've got that day.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:05

It should take you 20 seconds.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:06

So if you go in my notebook, you'll see.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:09

And then I do three weeks, and then I start again.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:11

Something incredible happens where your intention goes.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:16

It's like that energy grows.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:18

Something happens like everything is through our, like, the lens of how we perceive things.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:25

So if you're all of a sudden looking for clarity or looking for do it from abundance, or looking for wisdom or looking for magic, you'll start seeing it.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:37

As you collate evidence, within three weeks, things will have changed.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:43

Honestly, it's quite remarkable.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:45

So if you're right at the beginning of your journey, try that.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:49

Humor me.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:50

Write that statement down, read it throughout the day, and just at the end of each day, just make a note.

Caroline Britton: 00:18:55

That's one thing to do.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:18:57

What?

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:18:57

Can you just repeat the statement just in case people just need to write that down?

Caroline Britton: 00:19:01

My statement is slightly different than the one I gave you because you wanted something around clarity.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:06

But this is my statement.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:08

I say.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:08

I say universe, everything is conspiring in my favor to make my dreams a reality.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:17

I request a clear sign in my reality.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:21

Today.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:21

I am open.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:23

I am ready, I am receiving.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:25

Thank you.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:26

I say that every day.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:28

I gave you a slightly different version because you wanted one around clarity.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:31

That's what I do.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:32

And every single day I make a note and it's like magic, magic, magic, magic, magic.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:37

You will be amazed.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:39

But we want to build that belief by collating evidence, and that's going to be a game changer.

Caroline Britton: 00:19:45

So that's where I would start.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:19:47

Yeah, I mean, what you said, then we need to collate evidence.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:19:50

That's our sort of human, animalistic brain of just being like, okay, well, I'm not going to believe it until I see it.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:19:57

And very hard, you Know, that's when we kind of have that difficulty, because if we can't see it, then it's not real and we don't think it's working.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:20:04

So these little tiny signs of just maybe a lovely conversation bumping into a friend, you know, unexpectedly, like you say, hearing a song, numbers, a book, just kind of like presenting itself, like, these are the tiny little things.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:20:19

Because it is the breadcrumbs, isn't it?

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:20:21

It's these little tiny shifts and that, you know, going back to the beginning of our conversation, when we talk about energy work, that is the shift in energy.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:20:30

It's not this huge, kind of like overnight, oh, my God, massive epiphany.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:20:35

We're in it for the long haul.

Kate Moore Youssef: 00:20:37

I'm presuming that you know that for the rest of your life you're going to be doing this work.

Caroline Britton: 00:20:41

And I know that if I stop doing it and have periods where I'm not cleaning up my energy and watching my beliefs and my thoughts, that's mirrored in my external reality.

Caroline Britton: 00:20:50

And often when we're feeling better and things are going great, we stop.

Caroline Britton: 00:20:53

I see this a lot with clients.

Caroline Britton: 00:20:55

You've got to find a way to make it manageable for you so that you can continue to devote yourself to it.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:02

And I tell you what, it is such a.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:07

There is such a joy when you realize, oh, my goodness, by doing this work, it's working.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:15

Like clients say to me, it's working.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:18

Yes, of course it is.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:20

And it starts building confidence.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:22

But what happens is we have been programmed to, first of all, like, what you think, what you think, what do you think?

Caroline Britton: 00:21:31

And I always say to my children, what you feel?

Caroline Britton: 00:21:34

How do you feel?

Caroline Britton: 00:21:35

I want to teach them that the feeling leads, and then we can use all the brilliant stuff that we have with the brain to get built.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:43

I won't say, what do you think about that?

Caroline Britton: 00:21:45

I'll say, what do you feel about that?

Caroline Britton: 00:21:46

You get a very different answer from your children.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:48

You also get.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:49

You can ask me, what do I think about a problem in my life or making a decision.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:55

I say, I think I'm stressed.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:57

I don't know, Kate.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:57

I'm not sure.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:58

I'm worried.

Caroline Britton: 00:21:59

Like, what if I'm wrong?

Caroline Britton: 00:22:00

What do you feel?

Caroline Britton: 00:22:01

I feel like it's right.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:03

Very different answers.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:05

So it's.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:06

Having the ability to be able to do that is to.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:09

To do the.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:11

The feeling part is.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:13

Is one key thing, but also to recognize that in order to change things in your reality, you're going to have to start choosing different beliefs.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:24

Different thoughts because they govern our emotions and our actions.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:28

And there's so many of us in the same cycle taking the same actions with the same habits because we haven't gone back and said, these are the new beliefs, because we're waiting.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:39

Just start playing with this.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:40

I'm a powerful creator.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:42

I have the power with everything I do.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:45

How could I use that?

Caroline Britton: 00:22:47

And if I can start looking for the evidence that it's working, I get to lock in a new belief.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:52

Because we are the product of your what we believe to be true about ourselves and the world.

Caroline Britton: 00:22:57

You can't outperform your view of yourself.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:00

And that's why if you look at anybody from J.K.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:02

rowling to Barack Obama to whoever, they've got to where they are, because they've had to.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:08

They've had to connect to a greater belief and an identity about what was possible for them.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:15

So when J.K.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:16

rowling was being rejected from what, 10, 12 publishers, there was a belief within her that she hadn't written a silly book about a wizard that nobody wants, wanted.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:24

She'd written a masterpiece that was supposed to be out in the world.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:29

That has to come first.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:30

That inner belief, those inner thoughts, they have to come first.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:34

The universe then responds to it.

Caroline Britton: 00:23:36

And I'm so passionate about people trying that.
