living with autoimmunity podcast.
I'm your host, Julie Michaelson.
And today I'm joined by my
good friend, Cari Rosno.
Cari is a quantum healer and trauma
specialist who helps women navigate and
overcome trauma by cultivating a curiosity
that bridges the subconscious and
conscious mind providing an opportunity
to create healing and redefine reality
in our conversation today, Cari shares
just how we are able to overcome
everything we've been through to create
true wellness and the life we desire.
Cari welcome to the podcast.
Thanks, Julie, so good to see you.
So good to see you.
And I'm so excited to have you here.
I think listeners are gonna get,
I know listeners are gonna get so
much value out of learning from you.
I am excited to jump in.
So I'd love to start with your story
because you were in corporate America.
And now you are helping people heal
trauma and, and, and either up level
lives up level health, all of the above.
So how did you make that switch?
What is your story?
Oh boy.
Okay.
So yes, I owned a marketing
agency for roughly 20 years.
However, during the process of
that I found myself running the
Boston marathon in 2000 and.
13 and was at the finish
line when the bombs went off.
Now I was in the medical
tent as this occurred.
And so as you can imagine witnessed quite
a bit of extensive damage, personal damage
with people being brought into the tent,
I left stepped outside of the tent and
looked to my right, which was right down.
Alley the finish line and where I
needed to go and just glanced to
my left and in that moment of doing
so I heard a line of what I call
yellow jacket, screaming behind me
telling to run as fast as I could.
And I turned, I took off.
I don't know how fast, I don't
know how far and I don't know what,
what point I ever stopped running.
But later eventually ended
up finding my family.
And navigated through the rest of
the day, probably just in a state
of complete shock and numbness.
The next day, we went back down
to the finish line to be to the
end of Boyleston street, just
to kind of observe the damage.
And as I was doing so I had my finishers
jacket on and a reporter came up
behind me, started tapping me on the
shoulder and wanted to ask questions.
Where were you, what was your experience?
Can you share a little bit, as he
is asking these questions, there's
a voice inside of my head that
said it is not your story to tell.
And I turned and I walked away and
as I have this conversation, when
I'm speaking, it's this idea that I.
Left Boston as a participant.
And when I got home and
stepped off, stepped off the
plane, I became a spectator.
And what that looked like was going from
having the experience to stepping right
back into my business watching on TVs,
the rest of the world did as the man hunt
continued, and they finally found those
who were responsible for the damage.
And then I just kind of navigated my life.
The unfortunate part of that is that
when we encapsulate those stories and
don't share because for whatever reason,
somebody had it worse I wasn't injured.
The list can go on and on.
Then those will actually turn themselves
and manifest in an energy that
becomes trapped and create illness.
And what that meant for me was going
from running marathons to not being
able to walk up a flight of stairs,
unassisted, within a matter of a couple
of months, eventually I would receive
a number of diagnoses including.
Multiple autoimmune conditions.
Hashimotos chronic Lyme
disease, Epstein bar.
The list kind of went on and on.
I had insomnia so severe that it
took five prescription sleeping
pills to get me to sleep at night.
And this one on for, from 2013, until
about 2016, actually, when you and I met
and at that time, I had the opportunity
and was introduced to the understanding
of how we will take those emotions and
they will become trapped within our bodies
and in shifting and navigating through
the mind and the subconscious beliefs.
We have the ability to overcome
everything that we've been through.
And as I found that it
gave me the opportunity to.
Shift my insomnia that
inability to sleep overnight.
I overcame all of the illnesses and
healed in a really quite profound way, in
a way that Western medicine and Eastern
medicine didn't have the ability to do.
What a, what a powerful story.
I know your story.
Well.
And I still got goosebumps listening
to it and yeah, I have the benefit,
the audience doesn't have of watching
this journey from, from 2016 forward.
And I think you very much
like I, in different ways.
Just continue to heal
layer by layer, by layer.
You know, it's like, oh, I'm healed.
And then you're like, oh, I'm wait.
I'm better than I was.
So it it's a, and, and that's life, right?
I mean, we are always bombarded
with things big and small.
I wanna circle back and
highlight for listeners.
This idea of it.
It's not my story to tell.
Because I think that that's so
powerful and you gave some examples
of, you know, perhaps in that instance
for you, why you felt that way.
But I, I wanna just.
Touch on that again, because I, I think
we all carry that in some way with
some things and this idea of, well, I
don't have it as bad as somebody else
or, you know you know, for you, it was,
well, I, I wasn't physically injured.
Yet a and that story went
on for years with you.
It wasn't just that week.
You know, and, and so I, I just, I
wanted listeners to make sure they
really heard that and invite people
to, to think about, you know, that, to
me seems like a simple starting place.
I don't do the kind of work you do.
But if you're aware of a story that
you hold, that you think isn't yours
to tell, that's definitely a, a clue
Well, absolutely.
And I think, you know, the
it's, it is the idea that, you
know, somebody had it worse.
I wasn't injured, I wasn't directly
impacted, but I think too, As a society.
And as a culture, we have taken the idea
of trauma and we've taken the idea of
PTSD, so to speak, and we've encapsulated
it within this description or definition.
And then we hold this
definition almost like.
It's a container that we are viewing that
we sit outside of and, and trauma or PTSD
seems to be reserved for somebody else.
Right.
And the unfortunate thing about that is.
When we reserve that idea for somebody
else, we negate our own ability to
be able to address the experiences
that we have personally been through.
I mean, what if at the end of the day,
all trauma is, is the witnessing or the
experiencing of the frailty of humanity.
And if we think about that,
I mean, that could be simply.
Being within a community.
I mean, I look at the city of
Boston during that time period.
And I think anybody who was within
the community of Boston and having
witnessed or been within the radius of,
lines
within the radius of
this kind of experience.
Absorbed some form of trauma, call it big
tea, trauma, call it little tea trauma.
Right.
We're trying to come up with all
these different ways to describe it,
but really it's just an experience.
you agree that.
People glued to their television set,
watching moment by moment by moment
playing out on the news over and over and
over again can be experiencing that same
kind of, so they're not there they're,
you know, across the country possibly.
a hundred percent, a hundred percent.
I mean, anytime the FRA fabric of
security or stability seems to be
loosened or like the foundation that
we feel like we stand upon is shaking.
I mean, I remember standing in Boston and
to thinking this is now in my backyard.
So it was just this idea
that, oh my goodness.
I always thought this, this type
of activity was reserved for other
countries or other experiences.
All of a sudden it shows
up in your backyard
Yeah.
and it's the backyard of
the country of the United.
I mean, it can span out and be so large.
sure.
That's so important for people to
be aware of because again, kind of
like you mentioned, we have this.
Criteria of this container we create for
something like PTSD and that's for others.
And, you know, I didn't serve.
I mean, that's the first thing
usually that people think of
is they think of military.
And, and while yes, you know, but why,
because of what you just explained, right.
Because what they're seeing,
whether they're physically hurt
or not Is so I want you to, and
you may word it differently.
What is your definition of
trauma or what, what is trauma.
trauma to me is any experience.
Or observation of, like I say, the
frailty of humanity or the you know,
we, there's an element of us that
yes, we fear death, but then we also
feel invincible at the same time.
And when that kind of comes into
question, or we observe that,
or we feel the sense of loss.
That is going to create a form of trauma.
So this can be caring for a sibling caring
for a parent being the caretaker in any
way having navigated through any kind of.
Relationship issue, career issue, where
there seems to be this like, oh my
gosh, I thought I had this all together.
And something came in
and pulled that again.
That rug out from underneath
you, this is trauma.
All of it is to a degree now whether
you wanna call it that or not, you
can call it a story like my mind did.
Right.
Okay.
It's not my story to tell.
When we don't tell those stories, they do
become encapsulated and they get trapped.
And then when we look at how the, how
they manifest in order to be told, you're
gonna see that in the physical body.
leads me so beautifully to, and you've
already said it, but to put a bow on.
So how, how does trauma.
Lead to illness.
What is, you know, what does this
have to do with autoimmunity?
I mean, your story, it was very
clear, you know of, do you,
do you experience the trauma?
And, and I would even question.
Was the event, the trauma, or was the
denial that that event impacted you
the trauma, but it clearly led you from
physical health beyond what most people
even experience to then total 180.
Right?
I, I see often in my practice.
There, it could be years, you know,
it's, it's not necessarily because
maybe it's several little things or so,
so how does trauma big T little T the,
how do those events lead to illness?
Hmm.
So for anybody, and I look at myself
as well for anybody with autoimmunity
or any form of illness that is residing
within the body, what they need to
understand first and foremost is,
as I said, it is an encapsulation of
the stories that have not been told.
Because those stories are an energy.
They hold the experience, the emotion
that is not being allowed to be expressed.
And then as that gets contained and
held within the body, it is working to.
Reveal itself to express itself, to
release itself in some way, shape
or form those stories that we deny
the truth that we refuse to speak.
Out of not wanting to hurt somebody
else or burden somebody else or you
know, create pain in any way, shape or
form, they will create that within you.
And when that energy becomes trapped,
it will start to disintegrate.
The body and start to break down the
systems within, because it's like a
ball of energy that just sits kind of
within a cage and it's shaking and it's
shaking and it has nowhere to release.
And as you continue to shake
the insides of the body, the
body doesn't know what to do.
And so it starts to attack itself.
Wow.
So, because this is inspired
living with autoimmunity
Oh,
you know, this is amazing
information and obviously we're
not gonna leave listeners with yep.
So there you go.
That that's what happened.
and now you're stuck.
You're not stuck.
That's that's the whole point.
So.
Can you explain and I'm kind of
throwing you under the bus here because
I, I, but I'm gonna ask anyway, you
know, how do you help people get
to these things and release them?
How, how does tell me, tell me
more about, you know, what you
do, how you work with people.
I know the results you get.
I, you know, I used to say,
I don't know, it's magic.
where it's like 20 years of therapy
in a half hour but you know, so people
are leaning in right now, right.
They're going through and they're like,
okay, you know, Can I identify my things.
Maybe they can't, maybe they're so
separated from it that they have
no idea what, you know, what those
things could even be, but somebody
comes to you and they're ready.
What, what is that?
How do you help?
The first thing that I do when I sit
down with somebody is really try to
understand kind of where they're at and
how they got to the point of where they
are from their current understanding.
Because consciously we have
an awareness of how we got.
And that could be lifestyle
factors that could be I know I
had this thing that occurred.
I went through a divorce, I had
this, that happened as a child.
Right.
And so I have this conscious awareness.
And so we'll have the conversation,
the real key to doing any of this.
Kind of work and helping people navigate
into those stories that are quite honestly
packaged away in beautiful little boxes,
cuz we're really good at that is to
get incredibly curious and to open an
awareness for them to be able to see.
The path themselves.
And so, as we understand
consciously, I know this is why
I'm here and this is what I desire.
Then I'm gonna help them bridge
the gap between the subconscious
mind and the conscious mind.
So not only can we see you understand
here consciously how you got to the
place you are, but I'm gonna help
you see subconsciously maybe some
of those things that are hiding.
And like you said, even with me
in Boston, was that the thing
that was part of it, for sure.
But as I even navigate and said, okay,
consciously I know this was the thing.
When I started to look back, it was like,
oh boy, but this goes back way further.
Right.
There's a reason why I found myself there.
And so to have that guide, be able to
nav, help you navigate and walk back and
then be able to release those trapped,
not just trapped emotions, but those
trapped belief systems, the things that
are kind of hiding subconsciously that are
continuing to create the illness or create
continuing to create quite honestly the
reality that is sitting in front of you.
That you're.
But no, this, this isn't what I want.
Right.
Once we figure that out and we kind
of pull those non serving moments, non
serving beliefs, nons, serving energy out.
Now we get to create
something completely new.
And that's how I navigated my own
journey and what brought me into
the point where I'm at now, where I
help other women navigate their own
journey in order to find that healing.
Because at the end of the day,
you know, this, I know this
we've had this conversation like.
They heal themselves.
Like they have ultimate power and
control over their ability to heal.
They just simply need to know that
they're worthy of it, that they can do it.
And it is okay for them to
make themselves priority.
Mm.
Say that one again.
right.
It is.
Oh, it's it is okay to
make yourself a priority.
it's not even, I'm gonna one up
that actually it is essential,
It is essential.
No, I totally agree.
But sometimes the initial step is you
Oh my
permission.
right.
Mm-hmm
Well, and I find you know, because the
work you do is so essential in healing.
And again, I'm, I'm not a trauma healer.
I am not.
But.
Getting to this in one way, shape or form
is part of my work I do with everybody
I work with, because that is what leads
to illness, especially autoimmunity.
And so everybody I work
with needs to learn to.
For you're right.
First it's okay to make
yourself a priority.
And then it's essential.
And especially, you know, yes, for the
men that are listening you guys too,
but especially the women, especially
the mothers, especially, especially.
Mm-hmm
and that's why I say it's not
even just like knowing it's okay.
It's then training yourself
to do that because it's
uncomfortable in the beginning.
Oh a thousand percent.
Yeah, it for sure is.
it's not a luxury.
No, no, it's really not.
And I think the other key component
to that too, is that you need to have.
Some kind of,
Yes,
this is what I desire
fill
and this is what.
I will become and the healing
that I like, I want health.
I want vitality.
I want to be able to play with my
kids or be around for my grandkids.
I want to be the best wife, the best
owner, whatever it could possibly be,
but to know that and to continue to
hold that, because that is the key.
You have to want that more than
you want, where you currently are.
That's beautiful.
You do.
And, and that's what leads
you to, you said it and I'm
gonna, I'm gonna reiterate.
Because that is, that is the whole
reason I do this podcast is, you know,
you're talking about the steps to
create healing and I wanna make sure
listeners got the opportunity there.
It's you're, you're CR changing those
stories to, to create healing, which then
allows you to create your new reality.
Yes.
Whatever you want that to be.
And some of you listening right now,
I can feel you shaking your heads.
Like
mm-hmm
this is crazy.
What do you mean
right.
but it is, it is true.
We actually do have that power.
We just need to learn
to tap into it and, and.
I know, you know, you don't
O only focus on illness.
You, you help people.
We stand in our own ways
in all walks of life.
I mean, at all areas.
my goodness.
How often do we, or even the audience
say, God, I know I'm sabotaging myself.
right.
I know I'm getting in my own way.
I know I'm stuck.
or.
Maybe they maybe then the, the
other part of the population.
Why does this always happen?
Yes.
they're not there yet, but I know
I'm doing it, but like why, why
am I always dating the same guy?
Oh my goodness.
Yes.
am I always marrying the same person or
Why do I keep having this conversation?
Why does this argument keep happening?
I mean, it can be to the tiniest
little things, but the cool thing
about those little nuances, right?
The things that kind of feel like
pricks throughout our daily life,
they're actually mirroring back to you.
What it is that you're creating
and what it is that your
subconscious mind, the game that
your subconscious mind is playing.
Like if you take the opportunity to
really kind of sit with the argument
with the way you responded with the
situation that's happening at work,
and you dive into it with a little bit
of curiosity, man, it is all over it.
The writing is on the wall all the time.
We don't even have to really
search that far to see what it.
And how it is that we're
creating it's right there.
I love that.
You've, you've mentioned
curiosity a, a few times.
And I know because you're
a wonderful friend and I'm
very familiar with your work.
I know the importance
of it, but it's funny.
I just, I just heard it
in a new way just now.
Almost as, as step one of just, you
know, instead of just accepting, like,
this is how it is or that, I mean,
it seems to me like that's a gentle
door to open is just to start to get
curious about, you know, well, why or
Yes.
yeah,
Yeah.
I mean, when you think about, and
that was such a part of my own
healing journey was in curiosity.
I mean, that's what
brought them to you today.
That's what is bringing them
to listen to the podcast is
they're curious, they're open.
And so if we can take that curiosity
and build that awareness and then
kind of branch it out a little bit
further, imagine the kind of impact
Amazing so powerful.
I was thinking, as we were talking about
it, we're all born with that curiosity.
I mean, how many times.
Did your kids say, ask the question?
Why I used to have a joke in
the car, you know, with my
kids when they would say why?
I'd say that's my
favorite letter, you know,
good.
Mm.
I think like so many other
things, that's one of the things
that's conditioned out of us.
Right.
Just be a good girl and accept.
Don't ask why.
yeah,
And so there's power people take
that power back at least get curious.
yeah, absolutely.
And it's not even a matter of you
don't have to ask somebody else the
No.
It's not for somebody else,
actually that curiosity is deeply
and a hundred percent for you.
Yeah, very personal, very, you know,
I, I almost could see, you know, really
baby step number one, maybe before you're
even ready to ask why is like the raised
eyebrow, like the noticing like, huh?
Huh?
Well, that's, that's my favorite.
You know, my favorite term
is some situation comes up.
I don't care what it is.
Huh?
Isn't that interesting.
Yeah.
Cause if you feel like if the audience
just takes a moment right now and
just repeats that you will feel the
energy shift in your body, right.
It just automatically
brings a sense of calm.
It elevates you out of the situation
that you are sitting in in this
moment, it could be having an argument.
It could be falling down on the street.
It could be.
I mean, just any situation you
could find yourself in that
just doesn't feel good, right.
Or brings up triggers some kind of
emotion for you to immediately go.
Huh?
Isn't that interesting?
it brings a calm and it actually
elevates you up above the situation to
see it from a different perspective.
It's beautiful.
Mm-hmm
it is beautiful.
And I, I can feel it.
I hope listeners just did that along
with you because you really can feel.
The shift, it creates and.
It's easy to think to,
well, it's not easy.
It's easy now to think, to use
that in those situations where,
you know, if something's heated
or isn't going the way you want.
But like the little, like you said,
if you trip like the little day to
day things I don't know about you.
I, I have days where I seem to
like, be particularly uncoordinated.
You know, and I might not catch it
the first time at I could shift it.
If I caught it the first time and stopped.
And had that moment of curiosity,
but usually it's cuz you know,
mind is elsewhere and I'm rushing.
And when I spill the second thing
or drop the second thing or kick the
second toe usually that's my like, okay.
Isn't that interesting.
I use my hands all the
time to hold objects.
Why is that not working so well today?
I invite listeners to start with
those kinds of things, right?
I mean, it's it have fun with it really?
And because it be, it, it too can
become habit of, then that is your go
to when you're in that other place.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And that's exactly, that is the first key.
And I love that you said habit because
that is a habit to create is in those
every single moment, just so that
if nothing else, it just shifts your
energy and it shifts your mood and
your perspective just a little bit.
Right.
But then it gets you
to like, huh, I wonder.
I wonder why I needed to do that.
I wonder what's going on.
Why did I need to
stumble five times today?
Cuz they've had those moments too, right?
like, and sometimes it does take
a little bit and that's just, I
think that's part of our experience.
As we navigate through this human
life of like, we don't always catch
it the first time and that's okay.
Like it's okay.
Sometimes it takes a day.
Sometimes it takes, you know, a couple
different times, but if you can bring
yourself back into that curiosity,
you'll be able to shift mm-hmm
that.
And I believe there really
is value, especially in the
beginning of the exercise.
mm-hmm
You may not get the answer.
You're gonna ask the question.
It may shift perspective.
You may still not get the answer, but
you're still gonna get that value.
It's almost like I haven't
thought of it this way before,
but almost like meditating.
Right.
I tell people, you know, You
may, you're not gonna feel Zen
the first time you meditate.
You may never feel Zen when you meditate,
by the way, there's still value you
know, it's one of those, like, just
keep doing, you know, you're the,
the value isn't that feeling of Zen
is the exercise of the meditation.
Same thing with the noticing
and the getting curious.
Well, and I think too, just to, and
I won't go too deeply into this,
but this is a key component in the,
any healing journey whatsoever,
even in the conversation of this
curiosity is this ability to trust.
And it's the ability to trust
ourselves because those stories,
like I say, they have been trapped,
they have been hidden and they will
try to reveal themselves in memory.
They'll try to reveal themselves
in emotions that get tapped or a
conversation that triggers you in some
way, a movie that you watch for me for
a while, it was actually school buses.
Right.
They would trigger some
kind of emotion within me.
And in asking those questions,
then just allowing whatever wants
to show up and trusting yourself
to know that it's the right thing.
That is such a key component that I
also feel like we lose so early in
life is this ability to trust our.
To know, and the ability to trust the
thoughts that are coming up, we so
quickly shove them off to the side.
It's exactly what I did.
I got up and I brushed it off.
Right.
We're taught that as kids get up,
brush it off and move on, shake it off.
Right.
That's what we do.
If we stop doing that, if we
allow ourselves to curiosity the
openness and the awareness, and
then truly begin to trust ourselves,
that's where magic happens.
Which is also an exercise
Mm-hmm
and a practice that is not like,
oh, I did it this one time now.
I've got it.
No,
I know.
Life is an evolution, everything
that we're going through.
So even where you feel like,
oh, I have addressed that.
Right.
I've done it.
And I've navigated.
I tell you, it's like the
cut the wound with the scab.
You're gonna pull the first layer and
then something else arises and then
you gotta pull another one and right.
But it's just allowing and
trusting the process and knowing.
Each and every step you are
getting closer to the goal and to
the health and vitality that you
I love that.
And you and I it's been fun to be able to
watch each other's journeys over the past.
How many years six years.
truly desire.
Here's my dear.
You know, it just it's possible.
It's possible.
It's possible.
It's not, you know,
I'm, we're all special.
But I'm no more special than anybody
else, nor are you a, and this, again,
this is why we have these conversations.
Because I had no idea Before I met you.
I mean like a year before I met you.
I, I had, no, I literally
still had no idea.
I could heal none, no clue.
And so, you know, there's more than
one path, but I will tell everybody
that this, everything we were talking
about, we have spoken about today.
Is part of everybody's healing journey.
You, I, I don't believe you can heal
without addressing these things.
And I love the way you and your
programs, you know, you, you make it
gentle for those of us that are not
in that, that kind of healing space.
And I think that we can all.
Access curiosity, we can
all learn to start there,
Yeah, a hundred percent, like you said,
it is in us, there is nothing different
about me, nothing different about you.
There's no special, you know, oh, that's
reserved for, or sure you get to do that.
I could never the power and the
everything that you and I have is
available and sits within every
single individual who is listening to.
Every single individual, the thing that
propelled us forward and navigated our
journey is true desire, resilience,
and knowing again, it's that we knew
where we wanted to be, and we knew
exactly what we wanted to be doing.
And that's the thing that you hold onto.
And when you do, I tell you what,
you're not gonna let anything get
in your way from getting there.
Absolutely.
And I wanted, you know, I didn't
know the path to get there nor or
did you cuz I watched you do it.
So, so often, and that goes
with that trusting, right?
So often think, well, if this is
what I want, that's where I wanna go.
But I have no idea how to get there.
I either need somebody else
to show me or I can't get.
Like there there's no, we we've lost
that of like, we'll figure it out.
Take one step.
Just
Right.
And even in the journey, I remember
this and I'm sure that I told you
this, even in the journey of navigating
and discovering and uncovering all of
these things, I would get the question.
Gosh, why are you doing that?
I don't understand.
And what I would say is.
I don't know.
I don't know, but I know that I'm curious
enough to be here and I know that this is
where I'm supposed to be in this moment.
I didn't know how it was gonna pan
out when we have those situations.
When I was sitting.
Two weeks, two months, six months after
Boston, I had no idea how impactful that
moment was going to be for me or what the
impact of my healing journey was gonna be
and how it was gonna help me become the
person that I am in order to be able to
guide others in their own healing journey.
Like you don't.
Note in the moment, but if you
allow curiosity, and if you just
keep following that intuition,
it is going to get you there.
Absolutely.
And, and I, I hope this is
okay to, I did not ask this in
advance cuz it just came up.
So hopefully it it's okay to share.
To to it sometimes is a big surprise.
I literally remember the moment
when you looked at me and said, I
think I need to sell my business.
And, and even to you, you were
like, this might seem crazy.
It, it just was not part
of your initial plan.
Right.
But you trusted yourself
Yes.
created this, the journey that is
leading you to create this amazing life.
And as I always say it, it's, it's about
so much more than just you, because look
at all the people you're helping now.
Yes,
and, and so, you know, that's
not something you could have seen
that wasn't writing on the wall.
no, no.
you trusting yourself to
take one step at a time.
Well, and you know, that's the
thing, because if there's anything
else that's gonna get in the way of
healing, or if somebody's stepping
into a journey, it's the fear of loss.
And when I say fear of
loss, it's not the fear of.
Loss itself.
It's the fear of I'm going to
heal and then I'm going to lose.
So for me, it could have been, oh my gosh.
If I get to the other side of
this and I truly heal, then what
if I don't have the business?
What if I don't have right.
Cuz we get so attached to
the things that sit within.
I'm sure.
I thought that somewhere along
the way, I'd had this business
for 20 years, it was a successful,
profitable, amazing business.
Right.
But when you allow and you follow
the journey, I remember selling that
business in the beginning of 2019, and
I know how easily that sell of that
business came because it did the work.
Right.
in.
The beginning of 2020, and this almost
brings tears to my eyes, but in the
beginning of 2020, as the pandemic hit,
there was, again, this intuition, this
hit that said, do you trust me now?
Because that business never
would've survived the pandemic.
It's amazing.
When we give ourselves the opportunity
to travel the journey, to know
that there's potential for change.
But to know that.
Always for your benefit.
It is always something that
just needed to be released.
And that was the business for me.
And now I sit on the other side of
it, grateful every single day that I
trusted and that I took the journey.
amazing.
So amazing.
You have a, an incredibly generous
gift for listeners that I wanna make
sure I get to before I even ask you the
final question because it, it is, you
know, I, I know the value that you have
worked with my loved ones and clients.
And so, so tell listeners what
you are offering for them.
Oh, my goodness.
Okay.
So I have two opportunities.
One of which is that I would love
to offer, if anybody is curious
or interested in wanting to know
potentially what may getting in their
way of true healing or what might be.
Something that needs to be
shifted in order to be able
to travel their own journey.
I would love to offer a 20 minute
conversation and believe that there is
a link that is specific to this podcast
that they will be able to sign up on.
And I would love to offer that
to the first 10 individuals.
Who would like to sign up?
Secondly, I do have what I call it's
called a manifestation meditation.
Now there's a lot of manifestation
meditations out there.
However, the twist in this one is that in
giving the opportunity, potentially you
wanna sit and you're manifesting health.
I'm going to challenge you
within that meditation.
Questions that open you up to
a curiosity that help you see
what could potentially be.
So that is another opportunity for
them to be able to kind of see,
okay, I know I'm on this path.
I know that this is what I desire.
There's just something
that seems to be stuck.
Two opportunities to see what that is.
I say, go for both people.
amazing.
We talked about a lot of things that may
feel really unfamiliar to listeners today.
Which is what again, why we do this.
Right.
So get curious people raise that eyebrow.
is one step listeners can take starting
today to start to improve their health?
you know, we talked about it so much.
And I know even in your podcast, you've
talked about first step being breath.
Just getting really connected with
your breath because when you do that,
it brings you into a present moment
stepping then into a curiosity.
Right?
So you kind of take that breath,
you get yourself a little grounded
and then you ask the question.
Gosh, what, isn't that interesting?
I wonder.
I wonder why I needed this to happen.
I wonder why I responded that way.
I wonder, but guide those questions
internally and then to kind of take
it just a little step further is to
stay with that breath and to allow
whatever answer to arise from within
stop, trying to think about it.
Stop trying to find it and just
allow it to arise because the more
you allow, the more you trust.
That's it.
That's beautiful.
I'm going to really simplify.
Your head.
People.
. That is not where your answers are.
So just in case that went
under your radar, the breath
is to get you into the body.
Mm-hmm
Bring in that curiosity, wonder, and then
the, the biggest gift as Cari said, is
allow and I like to warn people what comes
up may not even seem to make sense to you.
It doesn't matter.
It?
No, you, you there's sometimes you're
gonna be like, that is completely crazy,
but don't push it aside because every
time we dismiss a thought that arises, it
negates our ability to trust ourselves.
Right then that's not gonna arise.
So in that, like bringing yourself
into the body, the one trick that I
will have my clients do is all right.
So if you're thinking about it too
much, because let's just, I mean,
this is just how we operate, right?
If we're thinking about it too much,
then I want you to just imagine
that your head is asking your heart
Yep.
and then allow
Yeah.
Love it.
Ah, yay.
So good.
So, so good.
I cannot encourage you guys enough to
take advantage of the amazing resources
and gifts that Cari has offered.
We will have links to everything in
the show notes, but for those that
listen on the go like I do, and
may not stop to look stuff up where
where's the best place to find you.
Oh, well, you can find me everywhere at
Cari Rosno website, Instagram, Facebook
