342. Breaking Free from Limiting Beliefs: Jim Fortin’s Journey to Transformation

1
00:00:01,446 --> 00:00:05,998
Jim, fortune, I looked away for two seconds and I didn't realize the countdown stopped.

2
00:00:06,121 --> 00:00:07,138
I'm here.

3
00:00:07,516 --> 00:00:08,556
Your hair.

4
00:00:08,556 --> 00:00:09,226
So great.

5
00:00:09,226 --> 00:00:20,096
So for the audience, we are so privileged today to have Jim Fortin because he is the host
of the top ranked Transform Your Life from the Inside Out podcast, which is in the iTunes

6
00:00:20,096 --> 00:00:23,716
top 100 in both educational and personal development categories.

7
00:00:23,716 --> 00:00:30,146
That's a big deal considering how many podcasters we have out there because it's close to
five million now.

8
00:00:30,146 --> 00:00:31,956
So that's a pretty big deal.

9
00:00:31,956 --> 00:00:32,510
Yeah.

10
00:00:32,510 --> 00:00:32,910
there, though.

11
00:00:32,910 --> 00:00:34,469
It happened by accident.

12
00:00:34,469 --> 00:00:40,250
It happened by, you know, I'll stop interrupting, but I just snapped it together in 2019.

13
00:00:40,250 --> 00:00:43,570
I'm kind like, I'll get to it when I get to it.

14
00:00:43,570 --> 00:00:46,690
And now we're in the top one tenth of one percent.

15
00:00:46,690 --> 00:00:50,480
And a lot of podcast experts are like, you made all these mistakes.

16
00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:52,620
We still don't know how you did it.

17
00:00:52,620 --> 00:01:00,122
So for people listening, when you're passionate about something, just go do it and let the
universe take care of the rest.

18
00:01:00,595 --> 00:01:02,477
absolutely, I love that.

19
00:01:02,477 --> 00:01:12,287
Well, let's just continue with, would love to hear your backstory, because I'm always
curious about stories and I love to hear people's stories because that's how we learn as

20
00:01:12,287 --> 00:01:13,298
humans, right?

21
00:01:13,298 --> 00:01:15,069
By hearing people's stories.

22
00:01:15,290 --> 00:01:17,216
So yeah, how did you get to where you are today?

23
00:01:17,216 --> 00:01:26,732
I'll condense this very, very quickly, but in my 20s out of college, was chasing, this is
back in the 80s, chasing money and success and all these kinds of things.

24
00:01:26,812 --> 00:01:28,393
I had a little money out of college.

25
00:01:28,393 --> 00:01:40,190
I invested it with an entrepreneur, lost all of my money, turned out to be a con person,
flipped me upside down, bad credit, lying, sleeping on a buddy's couch, everything.

26
00:01:40,190 --> 00:01:43,202
And I said, how do people come back from this?

27
00:01:43,212 --> 00:01:49,146
And I started studying motivational speakers, Les Brown, Brian Tracy, Zig Ziglar, people
like that.

28
00:01:49,146 --> 00:01:50,447
I needed more.

29
00:01:50,607 --> 00:01:54,710
And also I grew up with small town Texas farm boy.

30
00:01:54,710 --> 00:01:56,191
We had no money.

31
00:01:56,191 --> 00:01:59,593
So I went to college and felt like, okay, I'm doing something.

32
00:01:59,634 --> 00:02:02,206
So my life was flipped upside down.

33
00:02:02,206 --> 00:02:05,558
And I said, how do people get back from this?

34
00:02:05,618 --> 00:02:11,466
And I started studying the motivational speakers and reading a lot of books, but it wasn't
changing me on the inside.

35
00:02:11,466 --> 00:02:14,188
It was giving me information, but not changing me.

36
00:02:14,208 --> 00:02:18,352
started studying neuro linguistics, NLP.

37
00:02:18,352 --> 00:02:22,715
I'm an NLP master trainer, the same person who taught Tony Robbins taught me.

38
00:02:22,856 --> 00:02:29,722
A component of NLP is hypnosis and it's a way to change both behavior and thought
processes.

39
00:02:29,722 --> 00:02:31,043
I started studying that.

40
00:02:31,043 --> 00:02:33,375
learned that for three years in the late nineties.

41
00:02:33,375 --> 00:02:37,368
I worked for the Hypnosis Institute in New York City.

42
00:02:37,368 --> 00:02:40,022
From there, I went into, well, okay.

43
00:02:40,022 --> 00:02:41,723
What do I do to transform myself?

44
00:02:41,723 --> 00:02:45,687
I know the hypnosis, I've got tools, but what about my own psychology?

45
00:02:45,687 --> 00:02:48,689
And I started studying transformational psychology.

46
00:02:48,689 --> 00:02:54,914
So I put together the brain science, NLP, the hypnosis, and I started shifting.

47
00:02:54,914 --> 00:02:55,755
But here's the thing.

48
00:02:55,755 --> 00:03:02,280
I started shifting my subconscious identity because everything is identity.

49
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,562
And until we shift that, nothing will change.

50
00:03:05,563 --> 00:03:09,954
Prior to you asking me about my backstory, you and I talked very briefly.

51
00:03:09,954 --> 00:03:13,134
My brother -in -law, my sister's husband is a shaman.

52
00:03:13,714 --> 00:03:17,474
You know, they were the medicine men in Native American tribes.

53
00:03:17,474 --> 00:03:19,154
And I've worked by his side.

54
00:03:19,154 --> 00:03:22,574
He started when he was six years old in Mexico.

55
00:03:22,574 --> 00:03:25,454
I've worked by his side for 28 years now.

56
00:03:25,454 --> 00:03:36,874
So I've just put together programs that merge brain science, transformational psychology,
and ancient wisdom into transformation of ourselves so that we can evolve and grow.

57
00:03:37,594 --> 00:03:39,423
That's how I got there, here.

58
00:03:39,423 --> 00:03:40,214
Love that.

59
00:03:40,214 --> 00:03:42,054
Now that's a great story.

60
00:03:42,054 --> 00:03:51,669
mean, because from now you have coached and mentored global superstars from diverse walks
of life, business, sports, entertainment, politics, global affairs.

61
00:03:51,769 --> 00:03:57,212
I mean, you really have been doing quite a lot.

62
00:03:57,412 --> 00:04:02,315
when it comes to, when you have a new client that comes to you, what is the journey that
you take them on?

63
00:04:02,315 --> 00:04:04,722
Could you just summarize that?

64
00:04:04,722 --> 00:04:04,842
one.

65
00:04:04,842 --> 00:04:04,982
Yeah.

66
00:04:04,982 --> 00:04:06,592
I don't take one to one clients anymore.

67
00:04:06,592 --> 00:04:08,682
We only do group programs.

68
00:04:08,842 --> 00:04:15,062
started the transformational coaching program in 2018 and we exploded.

69
00:04:15,062 --> 00:04:16,722
We blew the roof off.

70
00:04:16,722 --> 00:04:20,152
I mean, we did webinar, offered it for $2 ,000 a person.

71
00:04:20,152 --> 00:04:27,622
We sold out on seven minutes and we capped it at 50 and sold out and every year, boom,
boom, but we just doubled in size.

72
00:04:27,622 --> 00:04:33,286
And so what we do is we take people through a 13 week process with myself and my coaches.

73
00:04:33,426 --> 00:04:38,707
an interactive community to help them shift their subconscious identity.

74
00:04:38,768 --> 00:04:47,070
I'm not taking anything away from anyone, but a lot of programs people go to, they might
go for one day, two days, three days, maybe five.

75
00:04:47,070 --> 00:04:52,732
And then before you know it, you go home and you're all pumped up, but you're back to your
old patterns again.

76
00:04:52,732 --> 00:04:58,594
So what we wanted to do is immerse people into core level identity change.

77
00:04:58,594 --> 00:04:59,842
Our identity,

78
00:04:59,842 --> 00:05:04,542
is our self -image, how we see our self -health, money, relationships, everything.

79
00:05:04,562 --> 00:05:09,322
So we take people through a 13 -week process collectively as a group.

80
00:05:09,322 --> 00:05:09,802
Why?

81
00:05:09,802 --> 00:05:16,402
Because of social learning and we learn from each other and we help them shift to they are
at a core foundational level.

82
00:05:16,402 --> 00:05:18,312
So that's the process we use.

83
00:05:18,312 --> 00:05:19,802
I don't do one -to -one anymore.

84
00:05:19,802 --> 00:05:20,742
I use two.

85
00:05:20,742 --> 00:05:23,508
We get amazing results in our group work.

86
00:05:24,112 --> 00:05:26,024
Wow, that's incredible.

87
00:05:26,024 --> 00:05:39,448
So I understand what you're talking about, but can you explain to the audience what you
mean by this personal identities that we have and how there's identities that we're

88
00:05:39,790 --> 00:05:45,765
creating for ourselves, how those are impacting our day -to -day life, really.

89
00:05:45,765 --> 00:05:49,227
They control, they don't impact, they control our day -to -day life.

90
00:05:49,227 --> 00:05:54,140
No, no, I mean, no, I understand your question now, in that we learn to become who we are.

91
00:05:54,140 --> 00:05:59,673
We're born as John Locke, the British philosopher said, we're born as a blank slate.

92
00:05:59,673 --> 00:06:09,119
We come in the world, society gets ahold of us, our parents get ahold of us, church gets
ahold of us, schools get ahold of us, civilization gets ahold of us and tells us who and

93
00:06:09,119 --> 00:06:14,722
what we can do and plants all these limitations in our thought processes.

94
00:06:14,722 --> 00:06:18,002
We learn these through observation and we become these.

95
00:06:18,142 --> 00:06:19,482
A great example is me.

96
00:06:19,482 --> 00:06:23,062
I grew up on a small farm town in Texas.

97
00:06:23,062 --> 00:06:24,682
We grew up poor.

98
00:06:24,682 --> 00:06:28,442
My dad was an auto body mechanic and a farmer.

99
00:06:28,442 --> 00:06:29,642
We didn't have any money.

100
00:06:29,642 --> 00:06:34,562
mean, today it would be a family of five living on about $45 ,000 per year.

101
00:06:34,562 --> 00:06:37,302
And I always said, I want more, I want more.

102
00:06:37,302 --> 00:06:38,922
I put myself through college.

103
00:06:38,922 --> 00:06:43,314
And after college, I went to college, graduated private school, two degrees.

104
00:06:43,618 --> 00:06:45,718
and I still struggled with money.

105
00:06:45,718 --> 00:06:48,608
But see, what I'm saying now applies to everyone listening.

106
00:06:48,608 --> 00:06:53,238
It can be health, it can be money, it can be relationships, it can be whatever it is.

107
00:06:53,238 --> 00:06:57,818
So my struggle was money, and many people have multiple struggles.

108
00:06:57,818 --> 00:07:03,178
Mine was money, and I literally read 5 ,000 books in my 20s, no exaggeration.

109
00:07:03,178 --> 00:07:07,518
And I read every book on money and business and success, and I was always broke.

110
00:07:07,518 --> 00:07:09,778
Of course, I spent a lot of money on books.

111
00:07:09,778 --> 00:07:11,190
And I recognize...

112
00:07:11,190 --> 00:07:15,512
This is why I started the NLP training that I talked about in the hypnosis.

113
00:07:15,512 --> 00:07:23,656
Till I shifted how I see myself at a subconscious level, nothing will change for me.

114
00:07:23,656 --> 00:07:28,437
And I had to shift my subconscious identity that I learned as a child.

115
00:07:28,758 --> 00:07:33,680
The identity was we are broke, we are poor, we don't have that, we'll never be like that.

116
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,601
You have to struggle for money, money's hard to come by.

117
00:07:36,601 --> 00:07:38,742
These were things that I lived by.

118
00:07:38,784 --> 00:07:45,957
Below the level of my awareness, I lived them subconsciously and they sabotaged me and
controlled me everywhere.

119
00:07:45,957 --> 00:07:50,399
And until I identified those and let those go, I was always trapped.

120
00:07:50,399 --> 00:07:57,341
No matter what I did or how hard I worked or how educated I became, I was always trapped
by the identity.

121
00:07:57,602 --> 00:07:59,743
Same thing applies to relationships.

122
00:07:59,743 --> 00:08:06,546
This is why people might learn bad models, unhealthy models of relationships as kids by
watching their parents.

123
00:08:06,546 --> 00:08:08,034
They repeat the patterns.

124
00:08:08,034 --> 00:08:09,454
Same thing with weight.

125
00:08:09,454 --> 00:08:12,614
I had a client one time, she was overweight for 30 years.

126
00:08:12,614 --> 00:08:14,054
She goes, I'm Italian.

127
00:08:14,054 --> 00:08:16,534
As a kid, I learned that's what we do.

128
00:08:16,534 --> 00:08:18,194
We eat as Italians.

129
00:08:18,194 --> 00:08:23,334
And then she wondered why 35 years later, she couldn't stop eating all the time.

130
00:08:23,334 --> 00:08:32,014
What we learn at a very foundational level, ages two, three, four, five, six, seven, and
eight, is what we become subconsciously.

131
00:08:32,014 --> 00:08:38,074
We live that our entire life until we change that, which is what I help people do.

132
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:40,280
I love it.

133
00:08:40,581 --> 00:08:52,496
All right, so when you have someone, because this is some of the work that I've had to do
myself, is on the conversation around money, because we didn't have money either growing

134
00:08:52,496 --> 00:08:53,206
up.

135
00:08:53,547 --> 00:09:01,690
And I've had to work very consciously to remove those blocks.

136
00:09:03,411 --> 00:09:05,552
Is there, like what...

137
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:07,271
What do you say to somebody?

138
00:09:07,271 --> 00:09:09,521
Like how do you uncover that?

139
00:09:10,302 --> 00:09:12,503
Is it just through the NLP?

140
00:09:12,503 --> 00:09:16,714
that's on my list of things that I'd like to dive into more is NLP training.

141
00:09:16,714 --> 00:09:20,706
Because I'm very fascinated by it.

142
00:09:20,806 --> 00:09:25,548
And so how do you work somebody through that process?

143
00:09:25,558 --> 00:09:32,120
Mine was working, let's go a different direction, but to answer, was working with a
shaman, my brother -in -law.

144
00:09:32,401 --> 00:09:38,724
And he literally would be the kind of shaman, a real shaman, you would find like down in
the Amazon for real.

145
00:09:38,724 --> 00:09:41,004
And he started when he was six years old.

146
00:09:41,004 --> 00:09:45,866
And he always talked to me about what I call a cosmic connection, universal connection.

147
00:09:45,866 --> 00:09:48,307
Everything is energy, that is physics.

148
00:09:48,408 --> 00:09:49,608
Money is energy.

149
00:09:49,608 --> 00:09:51,069
This pen is energy.

150
00:09:51,069 --> 00:09:52,269
My phone is energy.

151
00:09:52,269 --> 00:09:54,762
This body is neutrons, protons.

152
00:09:54,762 --> 00:09:56,263
Electrons, it's energy.

153
00:09:56,263 --> 00:09:57,744
Everything is energy.

154
00:09:57,744 --> 00:09:59,425
And our thoughts are energy.

155
00:09:59,425 --> 00:10:03,728
And we have to learn to manage our thoughts, but our thoughts come from our identity.

156
00:10:03,728 --> 00:10:06,630
My identity was I'm poor, I'm poor, I'm poor.

157
00:10:06,630 --> 00:10:09,972
We have to completely re -educate ourselves.

158
00:10:10,473 --> 00:10:19,198
A guy that I knew, also a well -known hypnotist, I heard him say one time that people
often ask him if it's hard to hypnotize people.

159
00:10:19,279 --> 00:10:21,440
And he says, no, that's easy.

160
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,116
It's hard to get them out of

161
00:10:24,116 --> 00:10:31,251
hypnosis, because as a kid, we learn all these models of the world, and then we hold them
for a lifetime.

162
00:10:31,251 --> 00:10:35,504
I have to actually through identity work help people tear those models down.

163
00:10:35,504 --> 00:10:37,445
A couple of simple things.

164
00:10:37,445 --> 00:10:43,439
What a lot of us work from, I did, is men scoff at this.

165
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:53,896
Women will admit it, men will scoff, but almost everyone does, suffers from low self
-esteem and low self -value.

166
00:10:54,070 --> 00:10:56,552
meaning I'm not worth it.

167
00:10:56,552 --> 00:10:57,742
You know, here's my product.

168
00:10:57,742 --> 00:10:58,663
It's actually magnets.

169
00:10:58,663 --> 00:10:59,183
I'm just kidding.

170
00:10:59,183 --> 00:11:00,174
They're on my desk.

171
00:11:00,174 --> 00:11:04,196
I used them for a demonstration, but let's say I sell these, okay?

172
00:11:04,196 --> 00:11:10,269
People struggle with, I can't sell them for what they're worth or what I think they're
worth because people won't pay me that.

173
00:11:10,269 --> 00:11:13,821
So they project their money limitations on the people.

174
00:11:13,962 --> 00:11:20,205
And so we learn these and we think we don't deserve things and especially expensive
things.

175
00:11:20,205 --> 00:11:21,794
We couldn't have that.

176
00:11:21,794 --> 00:11:33,254
So, especially when we grew up without money, you can probably relate to, we can't
metaphorically see ourselves having those things because we can't see it.

177
00:11:33,254 --> 00:11:35,134
It's not part of our identity.

178
00:11:35,134 --> 00:11:40,374
And we have to start re -educating everything you've learned, everyone listening.

179
00:11:40,414 --> 00:11:44,014
Most everything you've learned about the world is backwards.

180
00:11:44,014 --> 00:11:46,114
This is why we live in the United States.

181
00:11:46,114 --> 00:11:48,654
80 % of the population is overweight.

182
00:11:48,654 --> 00:11:51,202
90 % of people don't have any money.

183
00:11:51,202 --> 00:11:56,362
87 % of people live paycheck to paycheck, but yet we have tons of opportunity.

184
00:11:56,362 --> 00:11:57,202
Why?

185
00:11:57,202 --> 00:12:00,282
Because we're educated backwards.

186
00:12:00,282 --> 00:12:04,014
I've got to flip all that around and re -educate forward.

187
00:12:04,568 --> 00:12:05,669
Hmm.

188
00:12:06,551 --> 00:12:12,238
So what is the education that we're receiving backwards?

189
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,302
Can you dive into that a little bit?

190
00:12:14,302 --> 00:12:15,921
I'm not sure what you mean.

191
00:12:15,921 --> 00:12:19,113
And that's a that's a really profound and deep question.

192
00:12:19,113 --> 00:12:25,717
Saint Germain said if humans understood how the universe worked, they would cease to
believe in miracles.

193
00:12:25,997 --> 00:12:27,658
that any.

194
00:12:27,718 --> 00:12:28,389
OK.

195
00:12:28,389 --> 00:12:30,980
Is that Saint Germain on there?

196
00:12:30,980 --> 00:12:31,390
OK.

197
00:12:31,390 --> 00:12:32,881
Yeah, Saint Germain.

198
00:12:33,682 --> 00:12:34,582
Yeah.

199
00:12:35,122 --> 00:12:36,083
Yeah.

200
00:12:36,083 --> 00:12:41,846
And if we understood how the universe worked, we would cease to believe in miracles.

201
00:12:42,004 --> 00:12:48,937
So we're born onto this planet, a blank slate, and we're born pure potential and
opportunity.

202
00:12:48,977 --> 00:12:53,319
We, I'm going to use the word, we incarnate into a body as an energy.

203
00:12:53,319 --> 00:12:54,900
This is physics.

204
00:12:54,900 --> 00:12:57,061
So we come as pure potential.

205
00:12:57,061 --> 00:13:04,424
The world gets a hold of you metaphorically, puts a bag over your head and says, we're
going to write all of your identities on this bag.

206
00:13:04,424 --> 00:13:08,770
These identities are Christian, Muslim, American, Russian, Australian.

207
00:13:08,770 --> 00:13:13,892
Poor, black, white, gay, straight, rich, young, old, bad, good.

208
00:13:13,932 --> 00:13:17,074
All these identities are written on us as children.

209
00:13:17,074 --> 00:13:23,236
We own the identity and we have to go back and recognize we are none of those identities.

210
00:13:23,236 --> 00:13:25,997
We are pure potential.

211
00:13:25,997 --> 00:13:29,879
We are, this is science, we are consciousness.

212
00:13:29,879 --> 00:13:33,661
Consciousness creates everything, every single thing on the planet.

213
00:13:33,661 --> 00:13:36,980
You listening and everyone listening right now.

214
00:13:36,980 --> 00:13:41,594
If you didn't have consciousness in your body, you'd be a dead bag of skin.

215
00:13:41,594 --> 00:13:47,460
You're not a dead bag of skin because you have energy, proof, an EEG and an EKG.

216
00:13:47,460 --> 00:13:53,165
We have to understand who we are at a fundamental level.

217
00:13:53,165 --> 00:13:57,710
And what we are is we are all born creators with free will.

218
00:13:57,710 --> 00:14:03,004
Now we have to decide where we're going to place that free will and where we're going to
invest it.

219
00:14:05,053 --> 00:14:07,874
I love this conversation.

220
00:14:08,115 --> 00:14:14,148
So I love that you said that we're born with a blank slate, because I do really believe
that.

221
00:14:14,148 --> 00:14:24,444
And I've talked about that many, many times in my books and stages and whatnot, that
society gets to us and ruins everything for us.

222
00:14:24,444 --> 00:14:30,588
But what about, and I do believe that we're born with that blank slate, but what about
some of this talk of

223
00:14:31,161 --> 00:14:37,271
generational trauma that's carried in through carried through our DNA.

224
00:14:37,546 --> 00:14:39,507
Yeah, there's two places to go with that.

225
00:14:39,507 --> 00:14:42,148
One is spiritual, one is scientific.

226
00:14:42,149 --> 00:14:45,509
Spiritual is that nothing dies.

227
00:14:45,509 --> 00:14:50,133
This is physics, the law of the conservation of energy and the law of the conservation of
matter.

228
00:14:50,253 --> 00:14:56,176
Right now, you are an energy being, but you're in a container, which is the skin you're
in.

229
00:14:56,176 --> 00:14:58,577
This is your identity.

230
00:14:58,618 --> 00:15:03,821
Now, when the body ceases to exist, the energy continues on.

231
00:15:03,821 --> 00:15:04,181
Okay.

232
00:15:04,181 --> 00:15:06,792
Now I'm going to step out here a little bit.

233
00:15:06,826 --> 00:15:15,963
because I don't know your entire audience, even though we've talked and done different
things, is that we incarnate in the bodies and we bring energies with us into the

234
00:15:15,963 --> 00:15:17,253
incarnation.

235
00:15:17,294 --> 00:15:19,705
This is why we have soul missions when we come.

236
00:15:19,705 --> 00:15:21,236
I call it Dharma.

237
00:15:21,236 --> 00:15:24,238
Things we're supposed to do when we get here.

238
00:15:24,238 --> 00:15:32,514
We also travel in soul clans together, working out karma and are traveling together
soulfully over many, lifetimes.

239
00:15:32,514 --> 00:15:34,686
I know some people are like, what?

240
00:15:34,686 --> 00:15:35,446
Well,

241
00:15:35,446 --> 00:15:36,297
I'm telling the truth.

242
00:15:36,297 --> 00:15:37,517
I'm looking at physics.

243
00:15:37,517 --> 00:15:38,468
Okay, I am.

244
00:15:38,468 --> 00:15:39,969
We're talking physics.

245
00:15:39,969 --> 00:15:42,110
Yeah, it's the way it is.

246
00:15:42,211 --> 00:15:50,756
But notice how humanity has been conditioned that we are only 3D physical beings and all
you can do is operate by what you have.

247
00:15:50,837 --> 00:15:52,708
Things right in front of you and mechanical.

248
00:15:52,708 --> 00:15:54,319
That's not true.

249
00:15:54,399 --> 00:15:57,181
So back to the question.

250
00:15:57,181 --> 00:15:58,092
Where was I going there?

251
00:15:58,092 --> 00:15:58,882
What was the question?

252
00:15:58,882 --> 00:15:59,872
I'm sorry.

253
00:16:00,163 --> 00:16:01,984
yeah, generational telmo.

254
00:16:01,984 --> 00:16:02,725
Okay.

255
00:16:02,725 --> 00:16:04,896
So we learn it energetically.

256
00:16:04,898 --> 00:16:13,558
And the second place to go with this is I've mentioned the person about about the person
being overweight, the woman that I'd mentioned, an actual client.

257
00:16:13,978 --> 00:16:19,678
So when she came to me 25 years ago for hypnosis, I said, how long have you been
overweight?

258
00:16:19,678 --> 00:16:21,078
She's probably 40.

259
00:16:21,078 --> 00:16:22,918
She goes, since I was a child.

260
00:16:22,918 --> 00:16:31,408
And then she said, that's all I ever heard in our house is that we we eat, we eat, we eat.

261
00:16:31,408 --> 00:16:32,038
She learned it.

262
00:16:32,038 --> 00:16:34,070
So that's the second ways we learn it.

263
00:16:34,070 --> 00:16:37,612
But a third way is what are we carrying in our genes?

264
00:16:37,612 --> 00:16:45,355
But what I want to point out is we have been misled to believe that, for example, I had a
guy on my podcast, Dr.

265
00:16:45,355 --> 00:16:46,636
Bruce Lipton.

266
00:16:46,636 --> 00:16:48,156
Do you know who he is?

267
00:16:48,857 --> 00:16:49,387
You would love it.

268
00:16:49,387 --> 00:16:52,188
If not, you would love Bruce's work, Bruce Lipton.

269
00:16:52,558 --> 00:16:58,046
I may have interviewed him, I have to look, but if not I'm going to write his name down
and I'll retouch him.

270
00:16:58,046 --> 00:16:59,167
Bruce Lipton.

271
00:16:59,167 --> 00:17:08,109
But, and my brother -in the shaman has told me this, we on the planet think that, okay, I
have like, it's in my DNA.

272
00:17:08,109 --> 00:17:09,559
We have heart disease in my family.

273
00:17:09,559 --> 00:17:12,710
Not me, but as an example, we have heart disease in our family.

274
00:17:12,710 --> 00:17:14,051
We have cancer in our family.

275
00:17:14,051 --> 00:17:16,551
We have alcoholics in our family.

276
00:17:17,112 --> 00:17:26,454
We don't inherit, we do inherit the genes, but actually epigenetics, the way we talk to
ourself determines what.

277
00:17:26,454 --> 00:17:28,035
the genes do.

278
00:17:28,035 --> 00:17:33,717
There is no cancer gene, according to Bruce Lipton, okay, and my brother -in the shaman.

279
00:17:33,717 --> 00:17:34,568
And he's a healer.

280
00:17:34,568 --> 00:17:38,359
He doesn't work as a CPA during the week and people come on the weekend.

281
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:39,280
That's what he does.

282
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:39,960
He's a healer.

283
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:50,745
We've been in power spots all over the planet, inside the great pyramids for two nights,
in Teotihuacan, in Chitzenitza, in Haleakala, in Uluru, and all this Chaco Canyon.

284
00:17:50,745 --> 00:17:51,845
He's a healer.

285
00:17:51,845 --> 00:17:53,634
And he's like, here's the thing.

286
00:17:53,634 --> 00:17:58,457
When we come to the planet, we do carry and drag some karma with us.

287
00:17:58,457 --> 00:18:02,159
But the thing is this, many people let the past own them.

288
00:18:02,159 --> 00:18:04,920
They let their past identity own them.

289
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:06,461
And here's the thing.

290
00:18:06,461 --> 00:18:15,506
The truth is we have choice and we have free will and we don't have to drag our past with
us no matter what it is.

291
00:18:15,506 --> 00:18:23,040
And then when we heal ourselves, we heal other people around us in past generations and
future generations.

292
00:18:23,056 --> 00:18:25,277
Hmm, I love that.

293
00:18:25,277 --> 00:18:30,800
It's such a complicated topic, right?

294
00:18:32,821 --> 00:18:36,402
In many ways, sometimes it's hard to wrap your head around it.

295
00:18:36,823 --> 00:18:47,619
But when you were talking about, know, soul clans traveling together and whatnot, when my
son, my son who was a miracle baby, all right, I was told I would never have children.

296
00:18:47,619 --> 00:18:48,130
And you did.

297
00:18:48,130 --> 00:18:48,820
Yeah.

298
00:18:49,524 --> 00:18:49,912
Yeah.

299
00:18:49,912 --> 00:18:51,473
without scientific help.

300
00:18:51,473 --> 00:18:53,754
And he was totally natural.

301
00:18:53,814 --> 00:18:55,395
He was probably three years old.

302
00:18:55,395 --> 00:18:56,396
it was just weird.

303
00:18:56,396 --> 00:18:57,666
This lasted a couple of weeks.

304
00:18:57,666 --> 00:19:00,748
And he started asking me, and I had never talked about this to him.

305
00:19:00,748 --> 00:19:02,228
Maybe he heard it on television.

306
00:19:02,228 --> 00:19:02,959
I have no idea.

307
00:19:02,959 --> 00:19:05,200
He started asking me about reincarnation.

308
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,600
He was three years old.

309
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,402
Could barely get the, yep, he remembered it.

310
00:19:09,402 --> 00:19:10,782
He could barely get the word out.

311
00:19:10,782 --> 00:19:14,586
And we were sitting there one night watching a movie and he looked at me and he goes,

312
00:19:14,586 --> 00:19:20,518
He's like, mommy, you and I were married a really, really, really, really, really, really,
really, really, really, really long time ago.

313
00:19:21,199 --> 00:19:22,940
And I go, where were we?

314
00:19:22,940 --> 00:19:23,940
And he's like, yeah, we were.

315
00:19:23,940 --> 00:19:24,820
I was like, okay.

316
00:19:24,820 --> 00:19:29,423
And we just started watching the movie and I'm just sitting there going, what is
happening?

317
00:19:29,423 --> 00:19:31,423
Cause I knew what was happening.

318
00:19:31,544 --> 00:19:34,785
But I, and I'd heard about this, but I was, and I'm getting chills right now.

319
00:19:34,785 --> 00:19:37,966
I'm experiencing this firsthand with my child.

320
00:19:38,527 --> 00:19:40,127
Couple, couple of weeks later.

321
00:19:40,127 --> 00:19:41,990
So he was all, he was.

322
00:19:41,990 --> 00:19:47,593
It was right around the time I was starting to potty train him because I was told with
little boys, just wait till they're three.

323
00:19:47,593 --> 00:19:50,925
Because otherwise they're like, they're slower than girls.

324
00:19:50,925 --> 00:19:51,755
Just wait till they're three.

325
00:19:51,755 --> 00:19:53,186
I'm like, okay.

326
00:19:53,687 --> 00:19:54,187
Yeah.

327
00:19:54,187 --> 00:19:55,768
So I said, I was like, okay.

328
00:19:55,768 --> 00:20:04,743
So I waited till after he turned three and I was still changing a diaper of his and he
looked up to me and this was in July.

329
00:20:04,743 --> 00:20:06,354
Okay.

330
00:20:06,354 --> 00:20:07,594
So he wasn't even three yet.

331
00:20:07,594 --> 00:20:11,376
This was right before he said, and as I'm changing his diaper,

332
00:20:11,962 --> 00:20:17,019
I started hearing the song, here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus.

333
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:23,318
At that very second I'm hearing the song, he looks up at me and he said, he asked me,
mommy, when is Santa Claus coming?

334
00:20:24,844 --> 00:20:26,065
He's reading the energy.

335
00:20:26,065 --> 00:20:27,239
He's gifted.

336
00:20:27,641 --> 00:20:28,504
He's very gifted.

337
00:20:28,504 --> 00:20:30,181
But then I was like, well, is it me or is it him?

338
00:20:30,181 --> 00:20:30,331
Right?

339
00:20:30,331 --> 00:20:32,751
Because of course I wouldn't think it's me, right?

340
00:20:32,751 --> 00:20:33,438
But.

341
00:20:33,438 --> 00:20:34,389
picking it up from you.

342
00:20:34,389 --> 00:20:35,489
He's reading your energy.

343
00:20:35,489 --> 00:20:41,141
As we get older, we learn to shut that part of our mind down.

344
00:20:41,141 --> 00:20:52,584
Meaning we learn to think analytically because in our world we live in, we are rewarded
for achievement and materialism, get a good education, all these kinds of things you have

345
00:20:52,584 --> 00:20:53,384
to do.

346
00:20:53,384 --> 00:20:57,165
And smart people get ahead in the world and all these kinds of things.

347
00:20:57,165 --> 00:21:00,268
We are rewarded for how smart we are.

348
00:21:00,268 --> 00:21:09,341
But the truth is, like in shamanism, it's about not thinking and sensing coming from
higher function of mind.

349
00:21:09,341 --> 00:21:19,483
Because when we go into analytical mind, left brain, physical, organic brain, think,
think, think, think, think, that shuts down all higher levels of consciousness.

350
00:21:19,483 --> 00:21:24,885
Now, many people might call that, well, my intuition, yes, but it's deeper than that.

351
00:21:24,885 --> 00:21:29,866
And we have to learn to listen to that because that'll guide us everywhere we need to go.

352
00:21:29,954 --> 00:21:32,994
And he, your son, by the way, tell him congratulations.

353
00:21:32,994 --> 00:21:36,374
I know he graduated from college recently, right?

354
00:21:36,374 --> 00:21:37,074
Okay.

355
00:21:37,074 --> 00:21:39,034
So tell him congratulations.

356
00:21:39,134 --> 00:21:46,794
But these kids also, let me go somewhere else here, if you don't mind, is that we're
evolving as a species.

357
00:21:46,794 --> 00:21:52,454
Now, who knows where these episodes are going to go when I'm on them, but we're evolving
as a species.

358
00:21:52,454 --> 00:21:56,494
And prior to 1960, it was a different energy on the planet.

359
00:21:56,494 --> 00:21:58,080
Let me give you a metaphor.

360
00:21:58,082 --> 00:22:01,922
I use Apple, but many people use PC, Windows.

361
00:22:01,922 --> 00:22:04,932
And we had Windows 5 and 6 and 7 and 8.

362
00:22:04,932 --> 00:22:10,422
I don't know what Windows world now, but each one is an upgraded operational system.

363
00:22:10,522 --> 00:22:11,702
All right.

364
00:22:11,702 --> 00:22:12,862
Exactly.

365
00:22:12,982 --> 00:22:21,182
So prior to 1960, and Don Javier shared all this with me, we came at one level of
consciousness.

366
00:22:21,182 --> 00:22:28,224
And then in the 60s, the consciousness started upgrading to where we started having what

367
00:22:28,224 --> 00:22:33,496
have been named the endigo kids, those that are more gifted or a little more aware.

368
00:22:33,496 --> 00:22:40,660
Now, the reason a lot of us got trapped like in the 80s is because we're not fully awake
yet, like a puppy waking up.

369
00:22:40,660 --> 00:22:51,385
And then he said in the 80s, which your son was born after the 80s, that's when a higher
level of the endigo kids have come and they're higher functioning and they're higher

370
00:22:51,385 --> 00:22:51,955
frequency.

371
00:22:51,955 --> 00:22:54,307
They're bringing a new consciousness to the planet.

372
00:22:54,307 --> 00:22:54,880
Right.

373
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,632
This is why at our age category, we're like, duh, I don't get it.

374
00:22:58,632 --> 00:23:01,894
And the kids like, boom, boom, mom, dad, get it, get it.

375
00:23:01,894 --> 00:23:04,225
You know, and we're like, how did you see that?

376
00:23:04,225 --> 00:23:05,166
How did you know that?

377
00:23:05,166 --> 00:23:06,717
How are you so compassionate?

378
00:23:06,717 --> 00:23:07,907
How are you so wise?

379
00:23:07,907 --> 00:23:11,219
I'm three times your age and you're smarter than I am.

380
00:23:11,219 --> 00:23:12,510
You know what I'm talking about.

381
00:23:12,510 --> 00:23:16,663
The kids are at higher level of function right now.

382
00:23:16,663 --> 00:23:22,826
We were in the process of planetary consciousness shifting to higher levels of...

383
00:23:23,082 --> 00:23:25,567
a function of the human species.

384
00:23:26,216 --> 00:23:32,842
Mmm love that Okay, so I remember the whole that no, I love it.

385
00:23:32,842 --> 00:23:33,833
No, this is great.

386
00:23:33,833 --> 00:23:48,156
This is this is my kind of conversation so the interesting thing is that I knew that We
were heading into I'm gonna shift gears here a little bit we were heading in we've we're

387
00:23:48,156 --> 00:23:48,772
in

388
00:23:48,772 --> 00:23:56,603
And I don't know if we're heading into it or if we, heard we are in it, but I feel like
you may be more of an expert on this than I am, that we're now in the age of Aquarius,

389
00:23:56,603 --> 00:23:57,674
that things have shifted.

390
00:23:57,674 --> 00:24:02,025
are in it, but we're in an evolution of human consciousness.

391
00:24:02,025 --> 00:24:03,136
We are in it.

392
00:24:03,136 --> 00:24:13,979
And this is why you see, and I can already sense you're going to go there, this is why I
think, this is why, no I sense, this is why you see governments collapsing, economies

393
00:24:13,979 --> 00:24:25,824
collapsing, social structures collapsing, old 3D, when I say 3D, third dimension human
constructs of power and control and money and society.

394
00:24:25,824 --> 00:24:29,856
are collapsing because it's like a snake shedding its skin.

395
00:24:29,856 --> 00:24:33,879
We are evolving out of that old skin of humanity.

396
00:24:33,879 --> 00:24:42,203
So right now we are in that age of Aquarius, as you mentioned, but it's simply an
evolution of consciousness on the planet.

397
00:24:43,844 --> 00:24:46,265
But this is why, this is really important.

398
00:24:47,166 --> 00:24:50,308
The world is in chaos, as we know.

399
00:24:50,308 --> 00:24:54,250
I mean, literally, whether it be political, all over the world, economic.

400
00:24:54,250 --> 00:24:57,972
You see the right fighting the left and even the divisions in the world.

401
00:24:57,972 --> 00:25:04,415
Now, the worst thing that we can do is metaphorically pick up a gun and fight
metaphorically.

402
00:25:04,415 --> 00:25:05,075
Okay.

403
00:25:05,075 --> 00:25:07,836
Meaning, I'm to pick this side or that side.

404
00:25:07,836 --> 00:25:11,598
That's all bag of skin, 3d human.

405
00:25:11,618 --> 00:25:19,141
need to evolve out of that, let humans play their little game and say, you know what, not
that we're arrogant or anything.

406
00:25:19,141 --> 00:25:20,832
We need to work from.

407
00:25:20,832 --> 00:25:21,342
You know what?

408
00:25:21,342 --> 00:25:23,653
I recognize that we're evolving out of this.

409
00:25:23,653 --> 00:25:25,764
We're growing out of this.

410
00:25:25,764 --> 00:25:29,186
And I'm going to stay out of this fray that people are in.

411
00:25:29,186 --> 00:25:30,886
Staying out of the fear.

412
00:25:30,886 --> 00:25:32,727
Staying out of the chaos.

413
00:25:32,727 --> 00:25:40,010
Not contributing to all these kind of things that are actually tearing humanity apart and
keeping us from evolving.

414
00:25:40,010 --> 00:25:49,254
So we need to raise our own consciousness, which means going inside instead of going
outside and giving all of our power to the world and the old structures that are

415
00:25:49,254 --> 00:25:50,214
crumbling.

416
00:25:50,944 --> 00:25:53,627
my gosh, so amazing.

417
00:25:53,627 --> 00:25:55,308
Totally, totally makes sense.

418
00:25:55,308 --> 00:26:02,134
And I love how you explain that because I'm also seeing it like what you were describing
is kind of on a macro level.

419
00:26:02,655 --> 00:26:06,698
I'm noticing on a micro level in a big way right now.

420
00:26:06,718 --> 00:26:18,088
Like I can't tell you there's been multiple relationships that have gone sour in a
shocking ways that I'm like, and I just.

421
00:26:18,692 --> 00:26:21,054
Okay, I'm going to stay in consciousness.

422
00:26:21,054 --> 00:26:22,935
I'm not going to respond.

423
00:26:23,776 --> 00:26:24,736
Right?

424
00:26:25,097 --> 00:26:27,999
And it's happening more frequently right now.

425
00:26:29,221 --> 00:26:35,946
because I think it's interesting because I just did, I was just on a friend of mine's
podcast and we were having this conversation.

426
00:26:35,946 --> 00:26:38,648
I had a conversation earlier with somebody about this.

427
00:26:38,728 --> 00:26:48,556
I have a big keynote speech next week for a federal contractor in Washington, DC, where I
will be talking about conscious leadership.

428
00:26:49,384 --> 00:26:52,427
And I feel like, and I want to see your thoughts on this.

429
00:26:52,427 --> 00:26:55,929
For decades we were here, survival of the fittest.

430
00:26:56,850 --> 00:27:00,764
I feel like right now that's where we are.

431
00:27:00,764 --> 00:27:04,817
And it's survival of the fittest in terms of consciousness.

432
00:27:04,817 --> 00:27:12,203
Because if you don't have that level of consciousness, you're going to be left behind
because the world is changing so rapidly right now that we can't even keep up with the

433
00:27:12,203 --> 00:27:13,404
technology.

434
00:27:13,430 --> 00:27:16,833
That's, we talked about that prior to starting our conversation.

435
00:27:16,833 --> 00:27:30,586
And where I work from is that if you look at branches on a very, any tree, but in a large
tree, branches on a tree don't fight each other and kill each other.

436
00:27:30,867 --> 00:27:33,449
We're all branches on the same tree.

437
00:27:33,589 --> 00:27:36,642
And what we're doing right now is because there's so much chaos.

438
00:27:36,642 --> 00:27:38,393
Now the brain kicks in.

439
00:27:38,434 --> 00:27:41,454
and the reptilian part of the brain, oldest part of the brain.

440
00:27:41,454 --> 00:27:46,114
And many people are going into fight, flight and survival mode right now.

441
00:27:46,114 --> 00:27:47,634
We're seeing this in the world.

442
00:27:47,634 --> 00:27:49,754
I choose not to get into that.

443
00:27:49,754 --> 00:27:52,134
I don't know how long I'm going to be on the planet.

444
00:27:52,134 --> 00:27:52,954
It could be another.

445
00:27:52,954 --> 00:27:53,764
It could be a day.

446
00:27:53,764 --> 00:27:54,904
It could be 40 years.

447
00:27:54,904 --> 00:27:55,794
I don't know.

448
00:27:55,794 --> 00:28:01,754
But I'm not getting into that level of brain based fight or flight survival.

449
00:28:01,754 --> 00:28:07,926
And that this sounds really, you know, 1960s Woodstock.

450
00:28:07,926 --> 00:28:16,110
But we've got to learn to love each other because when we love each other, we're loving
ourselves and we're all part of the same species.

451
00:28:16,110 --> 00:28:18,491
We're all here doing our work together.

452
00:28:18,491 --> 00:28:20,291
We've got to learn to love ourselves.

453
00:28:20,291 --> 00:28:25,293
We got to learn to love other people and accept other people as well.

454
00:28:25,293 --> 00:28:31,496
But that goes all the way around the planet to every single person here, but not
everyone's there.

455
00:28:31,496 --> 00:28:33,317
Let me give you a metaphor here.

456
00:28:33,577 --> 00:28:36,352
Don Javier, my brother -in the shaman gave me this.

457
00:28:36,352 --> 00:28:39,804
Let's say we're all on a train, all of humanity.

458
00:28:40,145 --> 00:28:45,008
And there are some people sitting in the front of the train and they're going to arrive
first.

459
00:28:45,008 --> 00:28:53,494
There are other people in the back of the train and they're going to arrive later, but
we're all on the train home.

460
00:28:53,494 --> 00:29:01,570
So the way I look at it, if we're all on the train home, why would I be beating somebody
else up on the train that might not be where I am on the train?

461
00:29:01,570 --> 00:29:05,492
I wouldn't do that because we're all going the same direction.

462
00:29:05,836 --> 00:29:07,629
That's how I keep my peace.

463
00:29:07,712 --> 00:29:09,727
I know we're all here learning our lessons.

464
00:29:09,727 --> 00:29:11,823
We're all heading the same direction.

465
00:29:11,823 --> 00:29:13,365
Who can I support?

466
00:29:14,167 --> 00:29:16,680
I love that because it's a collective consciousness.

467
00:29:16,930 --> 00:29:27,790
100%, and we don't even recognize it as a species, we create a lot of, I'd like to use
more emphatic words, but all this crap on the planet we have, we've created it through

468
00:29:27,790 --> 00:29:29,250
collective consciousness.

469
00:29:29,250 --> 00:29:31,500
We've created it through commercialization.

470
00:29:31,500 --> 00:29:36,170
Not that I'm a capitalist, I get that, but I'd like to think I'm pretty compassionate.

471
00:29:36,750 --> 00:29:42,050
But something that's so outdated in our species that we get into is competition.

472
00:29:42,410 --> 00:29:42,860
And...

473
00:29:42,860 --> 00:29:49,575
we shouldn't be collaborating because when we get into competition, what we're saying is
there's not enough in the world.

474
00:29:49,575 --> 00:29:53,457
There's plenty in the world and always has been plenty in the world.

475
00:29:53,457 --> 00:29:58,381
But what we do is we compete when there's still plenty because we want more and more.

476
00:29:58,381 --> 00:29:59,842
We want a hoard.

477
00:29:59,842 --> 00:30:04,625
What I look at is what I want for me is what I want for you.

478
00:30:04,625 --> 00:30:07,887
I want peace, abundance and prosperity for me.

479
00:30:07,887 --> 00:30:09,418
I also want that for you.

480
00:30:09,418 --> 00:30:12,530
And I'm not going to compete against you to get that.

481
00:30:12,842 --> 00:30:23,988
And we also, final addendum to this comment, when we work from that place, that is our
consciousness, a concept called sympathetic resonance.

482
00:30:23,988 --> 00:30:25,799
Energy seeks its own frequency.

483
00:30:25,799 --> 00:30:27,610
This is proven in music.

484
00:30:27,670 --> 00:30:29,731
Hit an A chord on the piano over here.

485
00:30:29,731 --> 00:30:32,333
The A chord of the piano over there will vibrate.

486
00:30:32,333 --> 00:30:42,068
When we're operating at higher levels of consciousness, we automatically rise above all
this mass noise and chaos and fear and all that.

487
00:30:42,146 --> 00:30:43,213
and we're not in it.

488
00:30:43,213 --> 00:30:46,780
So we're not fighting it anymore, which is what a lot of people are doing.

489
00:30:47,868 --> 00:31:03,962
So when you're competition, are you referring, because this affects me personally, are you
talking about people competing for the same job, or you feel in competition with your

490
00:31:03,962 --> 00:31:06,375
girlfriend, or are you talking about sports?

491
00:31:06,375 --> 00:31:09,322
Because I'm a huge sports fanatic and I love playing tennis.

492
00:31:09,322 --> 00:31:10,747
That's like human entertainment.

493
00:31:10,747 --> 00:31:12,081
That's human entertainment.

494
00:31:12,081 --> 00:31:13,193
Okay, no.

495
00:31:13,276 --> 00:31:15,282
Please don't tell me I can't play tennis anymore.

496
00:31:15,282 --> 00:31:19,135
No, no, that's, that's, that's we as humans, we love entertainment.

497
00:31:19,135 --> 00:31:21,146
That's just part of our makeup and our evolution.

498
00:31:21,146 --> 00:31:21,556
Okay.

499
00:31:21,556 --> 00:31:22,307
No.

500
00:31:22,307 --> 00:31:24,618
What I mean is, and I can be that way.

501
00:31:24,618 --> 00:31:27,970
I was, you know, an athlete in high school and college and all that.

502
00:31:27,971 --> 00:31:31,913
What I look at though, is are we fighting for money?

503
00:31:31,913 --> 00:31:33,314
Are we fighting for jobs?

504
00:31:33,314 --> 00:31:36,757
Are we fighting for like Putin is doing for real estate?

505
00:31:36,757 --> 00:31:38,728
I mean, dogs fight over real estate.

506
00:31:38,728 --> 00:31:39,559
Okay.

507
00:31:39,559 --> 00:31:41,980
Are we fighting for political ideology?

508
00:31:41,980 --> 00:31:45,032
Are we fighting for my way over your way?

509
00:31:45,142 --> 00:31:49,325
This is all competition and there's plenty on the planet.

510
00:31:49,325 --> 00:31:53,648
People don't recognize how abundant this planet is.

511
00:31:53,648 --> 00:32:02,564
But then what a lot of people do because they're working from old models of consciousness,
they're actually, they're destroying a lot of the planet, which is our home.

512
00:32:02,564 --> 00:32:09,118
Where are we going to live as, you know, as long as we're on the planet, if we destroy the
home we're living in?

513
00:32:09,299 --> 00:32:14,378
I don't know where you intended to go in this episode and it went where it went and it's
going where it's going.

514
00:32:14,378 --> 00:32:16,213
It just goes where it goes, Jim.

515
00:32:16,213 --> 00:32:22,184
but, you know, people listening, we have to, we have to evolve ourselves.

516
00:32:22,184 --> 00:32:28,514
We have to grow ourself because when we do that, all the things we want as a human being.

517
00:32:28,514 --> 00:32:30,064
I live in Sedona, Arizona.

518
00:32:30,064 --> 00:32:32,034
It's very pricey to live here.

519
00:32:32,034 --> 00:32:37,334
I live in a brand new, almost 5 ,000 square foot home, luxury home.

520
00:32:37,334 --> 00:32:39,234
I have a nice home in town.

521
00:32:39,234 --> 00:32:40,814
I drive a Porsche.

522
00:32:40,814 --> 00:32:43,862
I mean, I like fun, nice things.

523
00:32:43,862 --> 00:32:45,022
They don't define me.

524
00:32:45,022 --> 00:32:46,013
I don't own them.

525
00:32:46,013 --> 00:32:47,984
I didn't come to the planet with them.

526
00:32:47,984 --> 00:32:49,274
They are just toys.

527
00:32:49,274 --> 00:32:50,725
They are things.

528
00:32:50,745 --> 00:32:55,217
So the way that I look at it is let me grow and evolve.

529
00:32:55,217 --> 00:33:00,749
And as I grow and evolve, I deserve the fun and the nice dinners and the trips and all
that.

530
00:33:00,749 --> 00:33:02,090
I deserve that.

531
00:33:02,090 --> 00:33:04,540
But it's not who I am.

532
00:33:04,540 --> 00:33:07,952
I simply created it out of my consciousness.

533
00:33:07,952 --> 00:33:11,323
I tell people I even wrote a lead magnet on this.

534
00:33:11,323 --> 00:33:13,504
You know what that word is, a lead magnet.

535
00:33:14,636 --> 00:33:17,738
We're taught to work so hard, which is how I grew up.

536
00:33:17,738 --> 00:33:19,579
You gotta struggle for everything.

537
00:33:19,579 --> 00:33:21,250
You have to work hard.

538
00:33:21,371 --> 00:33:26,254
Work hard puts most people in the grave well before their age.

539
00:33:26,254 --> 00:33:30,556
And then I look at, for example, people will say, well, what about Jeff Bezos?

540
00:33:30,556 --> 00:33:36,902
And I'm like, he might've worked hard, but he was working aligned with his identity and
his vision.

541
00:33:36,902 --> 00:33:40,384
So it wasn't work, it was a labor of love.

542
00:33:40,384 --> 00:33:43,094
That's a whole different thing than digging ditches.

543
00:33:43,094 --> 00:33:44,975
which is what people are told to do.

544
00:33:44,975 --> 00:33:51,461
You gotta put your, there's, not gonna mention any names, but people will say, you gotta
put your nose to the grindstone.

545
00:33:51,461 --> 00:33:52,562
You gotta hustle.

546
00:33:52,562 --> 00:33:54,684
You gotta work till your eyeballs bleed.

547
00:33:54,684 --> 00:34:05,252
These people, seemingly they're doing great things for other people trying to lead them,
but they're actually hurting people into old models and old ways of being.

548
00:34:05,272 --> 00:34:12,808
Evolve is the key, and then evolve, and then know what you wanna create in the world, and
it starts coming to you.

549
00:34:13,856 --> 00:34:14,836
I love that.

550
00:34:14,836 --> 00:34:22,879
Yeah, because, you know, I learned earlier this year because I've been doing a lot more
work on myself.

551
00:34:22,879 --> 00:34:28,661
You know, we go through periods of time and, you know, and, okay, let's do a little bit
more work here.

552
00:34:28,801 --> 00:34:31,742
And I realized, because I was taught you have to work hard.

553
00:34:31,742 --> 00:34:38,108
And what I realized is that I just be, right, try to work hard.

554
00:34:38,108 --> 00:34:41,968
And so I come in here every day and I'm just sitting here finding stuff to do and just
working.

555
00:34:41,968 --> 00:34:43,898
I'm like, nothing's really happening.

556
00:34:43,898 --> 00:34:51,888
And once I realized that that mentality of working hard is actually resisting, I'm
actually pushing, I'm pushing, I'm pushing.

557
00:34:52,168 --> 00:34:52,768
Right.

558
00:34:52,768 --> 00:34:56,408
And all of a sudden, right.

559
00:34:56,468 --> 00:34:56,888
Yeah.

560
00:34:56,888 --> 00:35:02,918
And now it's like, I've completely changed and I just, yeah, there's days, will I sit here
for 10 hours some days?

561
00:35:02,918 --> 00:35:03,418
Absolutely.

562
00:35:03,418 --> 00:35:05,148
But I'm loving every second of it.

563
00:35:05,148 --> 00:35:07,684
I'm in flow, you know, because I'm...

564
00:35:07,684 --> 00:35:10,350
I'm in alignment and it's like things just flow.

565
00:35:10,350 --> 00:35:14,656
And when there's nothing to do, like, okay, I watch tennis matches on TV.

566
00:35:14,656 --> 00:35:19,188
Notice what you said, you're in alignment.

567
00:35:19,188 --> 00:35:21,349
That's an overused word.

568
00:35:22,149 --> 00:35:25,831
I use it too, but people understand the word.

569
00:35:25,831 --> 00:35:40,016
But here's the thing, where I work from is, and I talk about this in my podcast a lot, the
number one question we can ask ourself is what am I to do while I'm on the planet?

570
00:35:40,357 --> 00:35:43,237
Everyone comes with a mission.

571
00:35:44,094 --> 00:35:45,104
am I to do?

572
00:35:45,104 --> 00:35:50,237
And I find when I get outside that alignment, things become hard.

573
00:35:50,237 --> 00:35:57,800
When I get in that alignment, meaning things that I love to do, I love to do what I'm
doing right now.

574
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,021
I love to coach in my coaching programs.

575
00:36:01,021 --> 00:36:04,102
From what I hear, I'm pretty decent at it, at least from my students.

576
00:36:04,102 --> 00:36:04,923
I don't know.

577
00:36:04,923 --> 00:36:08,364
But it happens very easily for me.

578
00:36:08,364 --> 00:36:11,365
But when I do things that I'm like, don't really want to do that.

579
00:36:11,365 --> 00:36:12,886
It's not part of my...

580
00:36:13,408 --> 00:36:15,139
Like I could, have the money.

581
00:36:15,139 --> 00:36:18,801
I could invest in a lot of different things, stocks and all these things.

582
00:36:18,801 --> 00:36:21,643
I don't because I don't enjoy doing it.

583
00:36:21,643 --> 00:36:24,764
I mean, I'm fortunate to have some financial wherewithal.

584
00:36:25,625 --> 00:36:31,808
I stay, can't, I know my lane and my lane is helping people grow and evolve.

585
00:36:31,808 --> 00:36:35,150
I stay in my lane because that is my Dharma.

586
00:36:35,150 --> 00:36:42,834
And I tell people, for example, mother Teresa, she didn't come to the planet to teach
people how to buy real estate, no money down.

587
00:36:42,890 --> 00:36:46,414
She didn't come to the planet to teach how to buy real estate out of probate.

588
00:36:46,414 --> 00:36:49,678
She came to the planet to be the example that she is.

589
00:36:49,678 --> 00:36:52,582
She lived her example and look what happened.

590
00:36:52,582 --> 00:37:00,330
When you get aligned, things open up for you easily and automatically, at least in my
experience.

591
00:37:00,780 --> 00:37:02,524
I couldn't agree with you more.

592
00:37:02,524 --> 00:37:03,236
Couldn't agree with you more.

593
00:37:03,236 --> 00:37:08,175
And it's interesting because I've been hearing, I've had more people on in the last couple
of weeks talk about Dharma.

594
00:37:08,757 --> 00:37:11,183
So there's definitely a shift going on.

595
00:37:11,183 --> 00:37:12,004
Yeah.

596
00:37:12,078 --> 00:37:14,698
soul mission, the word is my soul mission.

597
00:37:14,698 --> 00:37:17,958
What are my responsibilities?

598
00:37:17,958 --> 00:37:20,458
What did I come here to do?

599
00:37:20,458 --> 00:37:31,878
And my Dharma is, and I never would have thought this years ago, but working with a shaman
for 28 years, my Dharma is, and this sounds a little arrogant that I apologize, but to

600
00:37:31,878 --> 00:37:34,238
guide people and help them wake up.

601
00:37:34,238 --> 00:37:38,058
I don't like that word, but I use it for explanation.

602
00:37:38,156 --> 00:37:46,131
but to help people find more, which how this whole conversation has been, of their own
power in themself.

603
00:37:46,131 --> 00:37:55,156
Because when they find the power in themself, they don't need it from money, they don't
need it from the government, they don't need it from social structures, they don't need it

604
00:37:55,156 --> 00:37:59,499
from a lot of different things we have in society, they don't need it.

605
00:37:59,499 --> 00:38:03,040
They follow those things because they think they need them.

606
00:38:03,041 --> 00:38:05,632
This morning I wrote down, when I got in the car,

607
00:38:06,346 --> 00:38:08,057
It's something you've heard for many years.

608
00:38:08,057 --> 00:38:10,590
And we all heard it as a kid on the Wizard of Oz.

609
00:38:10,590 --> 00:38:18,116
When Dorothy was in the balloon and she wanted to go back to Kansas and the wizard told
her something along the lines.

610
00:38:18,116 --> 00:38:21,138
And when people get this, it'll blow their mind.

611
00:38:21,579 --> 00:38:27,363
Everything you need is already inside of you.

612
00:38:28,185 --> 00:38:31,768
Everything you need is already inside.

613
00:38:31,768 --> 00:38:34,690
But what we do is we look, well, I'm broke.

614
00:38:34,690 --> 00:38:42,160
I need help, I need new clients, I need new business, or I'm physically sick, I need a
doctor, I need a doctor.

615
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,830
And if you have trauma, go to a doctor.

616
00:38:44,830 --> 00:38:46,720
I was near dead in 2020.

617
00:38:46,720 --> 00:38:50,430
I had both heart failure and a stroke the same year.

618
00:38:50,430 --> 00:38:52,390
I'm perfectly healthy now.

619
00:38:52,390 --> 00:38:54,500
I mean, I don't look like I'm not sick at all.

620
00:38:54,500 --> 00:39:00,290
I'm perfectly healthy because I know how to heal because we all have that power.

621
00:39:00,290 --> 00:39:03,766
But yet the world we live in tells us, take this pill.

622
00:39:03,766 --> 00:39:07,689
Go to this doctor, do this, do that, and all these things.

623
00:39:07,689 --> 00:39:11,051
I'm not anti -pharma and anti -medicine and all that.

624
00:39:11,051 --> 00:39:11,872
I'm not.

625
00:39:11,872 --> 00:39:13,232
But here's the thing.

626
00:39:13,433 --> 00:39:15,815
If you need medical help, get it.

627
00:39:15,815 --> 00:39:20,798
But then what I would tell people to do is transition over to you are the healing.

628
00:39:20,798 --> 00:39:23,000
No healing comes from a pill.

629
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,382
It comes from your consciousness.

630
00:39:25,382 --> 00:39:28,084
This is why people think it comes from a pill.

631
00:39:28,084 --> 00:39:31,966
Then why do people take antidepressants and they're still depressed?

632
00:39:32,076 --> 00:39:34,384
Healing and everything is on the inside.

633
00:39:34,384 --> 00:39:35,799
Money is on the inside.

634
00:39:35,799 --> 00:39:36,311
I'm sorry.

635
00:39:36,311 --> 00:39:36,893
I'm on a roll.

636
00:39:36,893 --> 00:39:38,065
I'll shut up

637
00:39:38,234 --> 00:39:38,705
Love it.

638
00:39:38,705 --> 00:39:41,658
No, Jim, this has been incredible conversation.

639
00:39:41,658 --> 00:39:45,833
I could talk to you for hours, but we're gonna go ahead and wrap this up.

640
00:39:45,833 --> 00:39:52,410
Is there anything else that you didn't talk about that you'd like to mention?

641
00:39:52,604 --> 00:39:55,685
Yeah, meaning in terms of helping more people and giving them something here.

642
00:39:55,685 --> 00:40:02,498
Yeah, what I've done is I created last year a program called Get Unstuck.

643
00:40:02,498 --> 00:40:05,880
And I originally, it was originally titled the Be To Have series.

644
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,661
We have to be before we can have before we can do.

645
00:40:08,661 --> 00:40:12,483
Now, most people think being is like being things in the physical world.

646
00:40:12,483 --> 00:40:18,445
We don't understand what it means to even be a human being.

647
00:40:18,445 --> 00:40:20,194
We are human doings.

648
00:40:20,194 --> 00:40:25,334
When we understand what it means to be a being, we understand the power.

649
00:40:25,334 --> 00:40:26,954
I created a nine day challenge.

650
00:40:26,954 --> 00:40:28,614
We sold them for 79 bucks.

651
00:40:28,614 --> 00:40:30,254
I sold thousands.

652
00:40:30,254 --> 00:40:31,574
They're not available right now.

653
00:40:31,574 --> 00:40:32,464
I'm not selling them.

654
00:40:32,464 --> 00:40:37,234
But for people listening, I want to give them the Get Unstuck bundle.

655
00:40:37,234 --> 00:40:41,554
It's one program to show them how to get out of their thoughts very, very quickly.

656
00:40:41,554 --> 00:40:44,114
And it's the nine day challenge.

657
00:40:44,114 --> 00:40:45,890
We track our metrics.

658
00:40:45,890 --> 00:40:50,580
We have a 93 % completion rate of people even after day number nine.

659
00:40:50,580 --> 00:40:56,850
It takes people apart and shows them this is the core of your being.

660
00:40:56,850 --> 00:40:59,810
This is literally what it means to be.

661
00:40:59,810 --> 00:41:08,390
And when you can be something at a soulful level, you can create all the health, money,
relationships, boyfriends, girlfriends, whatever you want.

662
00:41:08,390 --> 00:41:10,960
So I'm giving this to people that are listening here.

663
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:11,980
We don't give it away.

664
00:41:11,980 --> 00:41:15,510
It's 97 bucks, but I'm giving it to listeners here.

665
00:41:15,510 --> 00:41:21,755
The way to get that is to go to my Instagram, I am Jim Fortin.

666
00:41:21,755 --> 00:41:24,016
I am Jim Fortin on Instagram.

667
00:41:24,016 --> 00:41:27,778
DM me the word happiness.

668
00:41:27,999 --> 00:41:30,801
So go to Jim Fortin, I am Jim Fortin.

669
00:41:30,801 --> 00:41:34,163
DM me the word happiness.

670
00:41:34,163 --> 00:41:44,002
When you DM me that word, I or someone on my team will respond, we'll get you all set up
and we'll get you enrolled in the Get Unstuck program.

671
00:41:44,002 --> 00:41:47,143
Plus, you'll get the master thought formula training with that as well.

672
00:41:47,143 --> 00:41:50,884
It's basically showing you how to change your thoughts very, very quickly.

673
00:41:51,124 --> 00:41:52,984
One final comment on that.

674
00:41:53,285 --> 00:41:57,006
We tend to negate and not appreciate what's free in life.

675
00:41:57,006 --> 00:41:58,406
That's part of human nature.

676
00:41:58,406 --> 00:42:05,888
And especially listening to a podcast, often we think, it's just some bonus they slapped
together, pulled it out of the closet and threw it.

677
00:42:05,888 --> 00:42:10,549
This is, from what I understand, extraordinarily helpful to people.

678
00:42:10,549 --> 00:42:12,410
So please take this seriously.

679
00:42:12,410 --> 00:42:13,000
Go get it.

680
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:14,290
Go download it.

681
00:42:14,334 --> 00:42:25,298
Listen to the nine days and do what I instruct you to do to better understand what it
means to be because that's what you are, a being, and all power is there.

682
00:42:26,566 --> 00:42:28,257
Boom, mic drop.

683
00:42:28,257 --> 00:42:29,698
Thank you, Jim.

684
00:42:30,619 --> 00:42:32,380
That was awesome.

685
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:34,241
Thank you so much.

686
00:42:34,241 --> 00:42:35,272
Good, good.

687
00:42:35,272 --> 00:42:41,046
When we can do it anytime, always happy to, if you just want to have a cup of coffee and
chat, I'll be there with you.

688
00:42:41,206 --> 00:42:42,227
All right.

689
00:42:42,307 --> 00:42:44,268
Folks, thank you so much for joining us today.

690
00:42:44,268 --> 00:42:46,080
Go to Jim's Instagram.

691
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:46,970
I am Jim Forten.

692
00:42:46,970 --> 00:42:48,291
It'll be in the show notes as well.

693
00:42:48,291 --> 00:42:52,714
DM him the word happiness and take advantage of that free gift because it sounds amazing.

694
00:42:52,714 --> 00:42:54,668
I think I may be DMing you too.

695
00:42:54,668 --> 00:42:55,568
Do it!

696
00:42:57,614 --> 00:43:01,186
