Lisa:

Hey, guys. I'm Lisa.

Emily:

And I'm Emily, and we are the Conscious Collaboration Podcast. What up listeners? What up Lisa? Hey.

Lisa:

You know what I forgot to reflect on in our pre chat, Emily, was that we are now, radio stars, basically.

Emily:

I know. I was just having that thought too. I was like, we had a busy week. We should tell everybody.

Lisa:

That was amazing. So if you guys didn't catch our our last episode, it was ahead of our our radio appearance, right, on a big gay radio show?

Emily:

Correct. Yes. Because we did it Wednesday night slash early Thursday morning.

Lisa:

I have to tell you, I'm still recovering, and I think I lost a little bit of time.

Emily:

Yes. Yes. There's no need. If y'all missed it, we're on we were live. You can catch the replay of this, by the way, on Spotify or your your favorite podcast directory.

Emily:

It's called The Big Gay Radio Show, and will be, I suppose, one of their more recent episodes depending on when you check it out. But, it it's it we were on it live initially, so this is Wednesday night slash into Thursday morning, 12 midnight, to 3 AM. We we didn't quite close the club down, but we stayed till 2. And for us, you know, single mamas, especially, you you know, lately, I've been, like, religious about my sleep, you know, with the bodybuilding and everything like that. So it was definitely a a a shake up of things.

Emily:

Worth it. Yeah. Worth it.

Lisa:

It was worth it.

Emily:

Yeah. Definitely a shake up. And I did 2 nights in a row of Oh, it's really town. Altered schedules, because I went I went to one of my throwbacks. I went to go see juvenile live, and, it really was.

Emily:

It was like a little time machine. So we had a cool we had a cool week.

Lisa:

So the theme of the week last week, and I think it spilled over, was the amplification of joy and how that spilled over and radiated into everything, and that carried through from the podcast to the radio show to our what we did in our personal lives outside of that. So For sure. That was lots of fun. It's a little intimidating, but I loved I loved the just the vibe they had in the control room and how creative together.

Emily:

Yeah. And it felt cool once you put on those headphones. You know? It felt so efficient.

Lisa:

Yeah. Yeah. They had such great sound equipment as they should because, yeah, they're they're legit in everything that they do. I mean, they're one of the best, in Tampa Bay, and, it was really cool to be in that environment. It took me back the live TV days, and I just love their authentic organic conversations, how good they were at including us in the topics even though, you know, some things we didn't know about, but felt like I walked away learning some stuff too.

Emily:

For sure. For sure. And it was just just a good time with cool people. So y'all should definitely check that episode out. Yeah.

Emily:

Yeah. And, you know, I I have been really, enjoying consuming podcasts as as a media format, lately because, you know, it works so well with a moving body, I guess. And, so one of the people that I saw at the nutrition coaching convention that I went to back in April was Ed Mylett, and, he that was just a a crazy powerful experience in itself. But, I always love, catching any podcast that that he is on, and he has his own podcast as well. So I I end up getting out my notes app anytime I'm listening to him because he just drops his bangers.

Emily:

He just drops his bangers, and they get my philosophical wheels turning. So, thankfully, you know, as we were kinda, throwing around potential topics, I I thought, oh, you know, I have a couple of notes from from an Ed Mylett podcast I just listened to. I can't remember whether it was one that he was hosting or a guest on, but I don't suppose it matters too much. The the topic of conversation that was so interesting to me was about changing the question. And so I'll put some context to that.

Emily:

You know, a lot of what we're working with, especially, you know, in my coaching work, and I I think this would apply to just about any kind of coaching work, whether it's fitness and nutrition related or, you know, business or otherwise, design, any of that. As you're working on these big heady goals, sure, there's the the physical actions, right, that you have to take to get there, but a big and somewhat argued to be the more challenging part of this process, of any process of achieving goals is the mindset piece of it. And you can know, like, and apply this to, you know, some sort of nutrition concept. Right? Something simple that say, hey.

Emily:

You know, it's probably not a great idea to eat a whole package of Oreos every single night. Probably just not a good idea.

Lisa:

Okay.

Emily:

Now that said and that being a pretty, you know, common and understandable piece of knowledge, taking it from the point of of eating the package of Oreos every night to not doing that on a regular and consistent basis, isn't just as easy as we'll stop doing it. Right? There's because there's, inevitably, a big mindset element that goes with it and not just the fact that and it's not just a knowledge deficit, in other words.

Lisa:

Yeah. So

Emily:

so in regards to changing the question, you know okay. So say you're in this position of of, compulsively eating a box of Oreos every night, instead of, you know so you'll wanna tune in. This is the self awareness piece we're always talking about. Right? You wanna tune in to to the why, to what's what's going on here.

Emily:

But you may you may find yourself asking questions more like, you know, why am I so irresponsible? Why do I lack so much discipline? Why am I so hungry? Like, why, you know, why is my metabolism broken? Why can't I get this right?

Emily:

Why am I so stupid? You know, whatever whatever the the questions are that are pretty unhelpful largely as questions, and they don't they don't actually get us closer to, achieving this goal of not eating a box of Oreos compulsively every night. Right? So changing the question, and he gave a a really great just kind of universal question to turn to, I think, and that is, what would I need to believe about this to make this work? Right?

Emily:

Because you you think about the idea that that it's what we believe that actually manifests. Right? Not not just what we say. That's why we can repeat something over and over and over again until the cows come home, and that's not the only piece to manifesting it because if we don't believe that or if we have a belief that we don't deserve the thing or that getting the thing is hard or what you know, whatever the case may be, it's that belief that's actually, at the center of whatever is blocking us from achieving that thing. So to change the question, to turn the spotlight right back onto that belief, I think, to me, feels like the most clean route.

Emily:

Right? And not too fluffy. Right? But just to start to create actionable steps, to get from point a to point b, I just thought that was the most brilliant and sort of clean-cut question, to start to examine.

Lisa:

Yeah. I like that a lot. I think it can be applied to so many things. I think nutrition is a great example of something that we do, things that habits, things that we do repetitively, that become programmed or part of our lifestyle.

Emily:

Mindless. Mindless even. Mhmm.

Lisa:

And really just, you know, the the idea, like you're saying, of applying something that allows you to not just ask the question in a broad context, but some way that you're embodying the outcome that you desire. So it might be like, what's an example of questions that you would ask in this, framework around, stopping eating the Oreos every night?

Emily:

That's I'm saying I would literally ask that question. What do I need to believe about this process to make this work for me? Do I need to believe that, you you know, and that that could be very different depending on the individual because that person needs to then examine, well, what do I believe about this? You know? Like, what what is behind this?

Emily:

Is it because I believe I don't deserve good health? Is it, you know, is it because I believe that, because I believe I'm gross and disgusting and, you know, whatever the self talk is, like this could look a lot of different ways for a lot of different people, but I think I think that's a great sort of universal question to start with. That used to be get right down to the new beginning.

Lisa:

You just start that question and then either, like, blocks or opportunities start to come to mind from your subconscious, probably.

Emily:

Yeah. I mean, like I said, I think the next the next logical thing is to say, okay. Well, what do I currently believe? Mhmm. You know?

Emily:

Or what, you know, we're just starting with the original question. Like, what, you know, a person a person who achieves this thing that I'm trying to achieve, whatever it is, what what do they believe about the situation? They believe they're, you know, worthy of x y z achievement. They believe that they are capable of, you know, doing what is required to get there, And and you can kinda start stacking these things up, and I think I think from that, you can look and say, okay. Well, where where is my deficit?

Emily:

What what don't I believe Mhmm. That I need to believe to make this work? And then, in my mind, it's much easier to make an actionable plan to get to that belief when you know what the belief is that you're that that is blocking you.

Lisa:

Yeah. I like that. I think it's interesting just how people live their lives and their perspectives and how their own subconscious might answer the question, because I my mind immediately goes to, you know, rather than the blocks, but what resonated most with me is why am I so capable? And then I'm thinking of all the reasons of things that that I've, you know, reflecting back on experience thinking why I was able to do this or I should be able to do this. I will be able to do this rather, rather than thinking about the deficits.

Lisa:

I think more about, like, the evidence of the reasons why I am capable of putting down the Oreos.

Emily:

Well, I mean, if if if what you had determined, you know, is that maybe I don't think I like, it it's just it's an it's another step from that. I mean, because I do think you need to if if you don't know what your deficit is, what your block is Mhmm. How how are you gonna believe what you need to believe? And maybe it's not that you don't believe you're capable. Maybe it is.

Emily:

And if you if if if you don't believe that you're capable, then that's where you need to solidify your mindset. And talk and tell yourself all the all the reasons why you're capable, all the things you've done historically, or or whatever the case may be. You know? It may it may be that, okay. I I need to believe that, you you know, because

Lisa:

Or maybe, like or, like, what what comes to mind to me is maybe I don't need to reward myself, or I don't need to eat this sleeve of cookies to make myself feel better for the crappy day that I had or to reward myself for the great day that I had. I can do this in the apps.

Emily:

Right. So maybe, you know, what do I need to believe to make this happen is maybe I need to believe that there are, other ways of coping with things than food.

Lisa:

Yeah.

Emily:

May you know? But by by examining what what beliefs need to be held, you'll be able to tell, I think, where where you're sort of lacking so that and, of course, nothing is a 100% universally applicable, but, I think finding and latching on to these little easy sorta hacks and and methods that are pretty universal is a good start.

Lisa:

Yeah. No. I think I think it's an interesting, universal hack and just interesting to think how each person might apply differently or what experiences because someone who's faced a lot of trauma and upbringing or, you know, berating from people around them or unsupportive, that they don't have their conscious collaborators around them might hear in that reply someone else's voice saying because you never could or something, you know, negative. So, also, just, like, evaluating whose voice is answering the question, comes to mind for me, but I don't know. I like it.

Lisa:

I think it's good because being a visionary and entrepreneur, as all of our listeners are, a lot of our goals could seem just completely bonkers to many people in our lives. And it could be nutritional goals, you know, if you're you know, such as your goal, like, I'm gonna be a a strength, competition. And people are gonna be like, what? How is that? Like, you know, how is that even possible?

Lisa:

But doing something around this exercise and changing that question, I wonder if that's something that, in your example, that might have been something that you did.

Emily:

Yeah. I mean, I think, I hadn't necessarily consciously done this practice before, but I I think that you could almost literally apply it to any anything you're trying to achieve. Mhmm. Any any sort of goal, any sort of, another big one that comes to mind is, like, money. You you know, money patterns, and I liked it in relation to that because I know for for me, it's it's, been really hard for me to see my, you know, what my blocks are because a lot of times these, you know, if you wanna call them negative beliefs or unhelpful beliefs are sort of below the surface of consciousness.

Emily:

And, you know, you you wanna think you're like, well, I think I believe I deserve this money, or I think I you know what I mean? I think I believe I deserve to have enough. So I I think that's a really helpful question about, okay, what do I need to believe, first of all, you know, and identify that kind of stuff. And if I if I sit down and did that as an exercise, I think I would have a lot easier time sort of filling that space in between where I am in my money beliefs and what I need to believe in order, you you know, for, things to go the way I imagined. So

Lisa:

All this conversation, I know you probably don't want to talk about it on the episode, but all this conversation reminds me I'm I'm in a bunch you know, I'm training a lot in AI and that type of thing, and I'm in a lot of workshopping groups and and prompts and building bots and so on and so forth. And we build a lot of bots around. You know, when you build your own personal bot, it's not open to the Internet. It's just knowing you and and how you work and so on and so forth. And you can and you might have seen this, like, on social media, but you can prompt AI to to say, like, knowing what you know about me, and, you know, you can you can elaborate on whatever it is.

Lisa:

You can ask it the question, like, what is it that I need to believe to be able to fill in the blank, expand into this market, or create, you know, create fill in the blank or to achieve whatever goal, and it will build out an action plan for you. It's so crazy. Like, down to, like, what should I be doing as soon as I wake up in the morning? What it to live in that way.

Emily:

Yeah. I mean, I think it's an interesting, I think it'd be an interesting supplement to the whole, you know, to the whole thing. I think it's probably and this is just, you know, me talking and theorizing. I think it's probably pretty valuable to go through the exercise completely yourself also,

Lisa:

probably,

Emily:

you know, before AI does it and then, you know, to take it with a a couple of grains of salt, I guess, if that's the appropriate, way to way to fix that phrase. But, like, you know, when you take the humanity out of something, I just I just put a little less weight into it, but, I think could be an interesting addition.

Lisa:

Really, really cool what it what it comes back with. I mean, it's not like, you know, oh, I'm gonna do exactly what, AI is telling people to

Emily:

tell me what to do.

Lisa:

Right. But I think, you know and also, I'm not the type of person to implement specific checklist type of routines. It's not gonna do it. But I the feedback I got when I did it was mind blowing. It also just really made something that's intangible seem very actionable and achievable.

Lisa:

And, you know, backing it up with, like, well, you know, based on this experience that you have with this, and this is what would be the next step, and this is what you would do. Like, maybe I'm not gonna do all that, but just to, like, interact with with something in a brainstorming kind of way.

Emily:

Yeah. I can definitely give you ideas that you wouldn't have thought of.

Lisa:

Yeah. Yeah. Or that you would even accept being a part of, like like, what you can, you know, that you imagine that something that you would be able to do. Mhmm. Be like I don't know.

Lisa:

I think it can be personalized too, and certainly a tool and a supplement and not like how you should guide your life or not in, like, a dogmatic way. But, I'd like a great, like, I don't know, like, a corner cutter in that kind of sense, like pulling all the pieces together.

Emily:

Mhmm. I think you could apply it too even, like, in the most intensive ways, like, especially if you're trying to embark on something that, like, most people would deem impossible or Uh-huh. It's just not the way we do things, right, or or whatever. Right.

Lisa:

You've done it that way before and it's never worked.

Emily:

Yeah. Whether it's a business, you know, achievement or even, like like and this is, of course, an extreme example, and I don't want anybody to take this too literally, but the thought came up of even getting, like, a very serious medical diagnosis that, you you know, maybe, and I I I, you know, I I hate this. This is this is always just hard for me to think about and upsetting in some ways, you know, even giving prognosis, like, because we know now. We have objective data to show now, how powerful what you believe about your own health is, whether it's placebo effect in the positive or no SIBO effect. You know?

Emily:

And I've, you know, as a nurse, I've seen this play out in real life where, you know, people survive things that they are, quote, unquote, not supposed to survive. You know, or people die from things that maybe, like, maybe it didn't I don't know. You know? I'm not god, but maybe it didn't necessarily have to go that way because of what they believed about, how they were gonna respond to the certain treatment. And they've like I said, they've even shown this with, like, surgeries.

Emily:

Like, there was a certain, like, like, a arthroscopic knee surgery that they went through, and and they did 2 different they were trying to see which of the which of the 2 methods in surgery was so effective, and they used a fake people who got fake surgery group as a control. Like, they got the 2 little slits, as if they had had the procedure done, and and they did, like, some kind of a fake, like, setup with cameras of other people getting surgery and stuff. So these people really thought they had the surgery, and, it was equally effective across all 3 weeks. Oh. We basically love the surgery.

Emily:

It wasn't even the surgery that was helping people. It was their belief about what the surgery was doing for them. So, anyway, all that is to say that that the the mind is so powerful and our beliefs are so powerful that I'm like, should we even be giving people prognosis of, like, how we think they're gonna do? Because how often does this then carry over into, you know, what actually happens? And are we being now prescriptive with these prognosis of of what ends up happening to these people?

Emily:

And so circling back, I I think this could be a really powerful question, you know, even in the case of something, that extreme like a like a serious medical, diagnosis wherein you go, okay, Well, this is, you know, this is clearly very serious, but what do I need to believe in order to to make this work to the best outcome?

Lisa:

Yeah. I think that's great. Yeah. That I don't know if you already talked about it in the actual recording today, but the speaker that you grabbed the quote from was and then we might have talked about it in another episode, maybe with Gopal, doctor Gopal. But, really, you know, that's how that came about because his prognosis on, like, oh, it's just you have to accept or get older and your hip's not gonna work anymore kinda thing.

Emily:

Mhmm.

Lisa:

Is that the context of it?

Emily:

For Sean Stephenson, you mean? Yeah. Yeah. I think, like I said, it's it's Ed Mylett, that I was talking about. I know that Ed Mylett and Sean Stephenson are homies, and they do podcasts together.

Emily:

So I didn't write down what episode of what podcast I was writing these quotes down from. But I I think that this may have been them them having that conversation, yes, in the context of, in Sean Stephenson's case, when he broke his hip when he was a teenager running not not not via an injury or anything. It's it's the bone just broke because it was so, brittle and and degenerating. And multiple doctors, you know, told him, oh, son. This is just something that happens.

Emily:

There's not really a reason. There's nothing you can do about it. And he was talking about he changed his question to, well, okay. Instead of, you know, for a while, it was why me, why me, why me kind of thing to what can I do? So there's 2 versions of it, I guess.

Emily:

There's there's a mindset and there's an action. There's what do I need to believe and what do I need to do in order to make this work.

Lisa:

Right. And, that's, that's an important part of actualizing any goal or manifesting something. It's we talk about all the time. It's not just, you know, yeah, it's not just putting out there. It's in, like, the beingness or the doingness.

Emily:

Yeah. But changing beliefs is, like, not easy, especially, you know, especially if you haven't really taken the time to examine what beliefs are necessary and what your beliefs are.

Lisa:

Mhmm. Yeah. I think it's just an interesting conversation too. Just, you know, even I don't know if we talked about it in the last episode or if we talked about the car ride, to the radio show last week, but or in our DMs, but we were talking about, different people's perspectives and, what their inner voices are and everybody and based on their experiences and, their knowledge is everybody is just operating from a place that they knew best.

Emily:

Mhmm.

Lisa:

And so in terms of how someone's mind might answer that question, it's just like, you know, we say, you and I, we can look at the same color, and we're both gonna see different colors. We can put the same name, the way that we receive it is different. So I think when we ask, like, what do I need to believe in order to fill in the blank? What comes from that, is probably gonna be action oriented. But it would be interesting just to, like, if there was a study to know what, you know, how are people answering that internally.

Emily:

Mhmm.

Lisa:

And what like like, how does that influence your outcome? You getting from point a to to z.

Emily:

Yeah. Yeah. That would be I mean, studied design is not my forte, but that would be, that would be a tough, study. There's a lot of subjectivity there, but, but, yeah, somebody should do it.

Lisa:

And somebody listening can do that.

Emily:

Yeah. Somebody somebody who's into to structuring research.

Lisa:

No. I happened to just have a lot of conversations yesterday and within the past couple weeks with people that are researching topics like this. I might put it out there, but researching in particular feng shui, in qualifying quantifying the results and the effect of, of things that get dismissed as woo, but there's science behind it. Well, anyway, not to get off topic, but there's larger conferences that are around these researchers. A lot of them are on the West Coast.

Lisa:

A lot of them are around London, UK. And, they've been able to start put some of these research topics into you know what? Maybe I'm gonna invite 1 to be on podcast. Yeah. Why don't I do that?

Lisa:

Duh? Yeah. I'm sure we'll

Emily:

get lots of interesting information about how hard it is to fund something like that.

Lisa:

Yeah. It is. But there's also, you know

Emily:

Kinda why we don't have

Lisa:

It's not it's not something

Emily:

a lot of research on the more quote, unquote, woo.

Lisa:

But there's investors that, you know, are really into that. And I think, you know, this space and I forget what it's called right now. The name is the word escaping me, but, and there's biohacking. Like, what are what does that area fall under? Now that that's not yeah.

Lisa:

Biohacking and that whole category has a lot of money in it right now, so a lot of these concepts Yeah. Are intertwined. So finally, there's gonna start you're gonna start seeing the research holding in. And, a lot of these big players are at these conferences, and there's a lot more talk around mindset and unseen energy influences and, you know, quantum entanglement. And so I think it'll be really interesting to see.

Lisa:

But

Emily:

Yeah. Totally. And, look, you know, science to back things up is always awesome. It's affirming. I also think that, you know I mean, the the great thing about, a lot of these outside of the medical paradigm Mhmm.

Emily:

But still health and wellness oriented topics. The good thing is we, in general, have a lot of agency over, incorporating these things into our lives. You know what I mean? I don't need to like, it's awesome if, you know, especially to share the craft with certain factions of people, you know, to have some hard data to back things up. But also just we as people who care about our own health, consumers, practitioners, can do our own research.

Emily:

You know what I mean? I think there's always a lot of weight that should be considered to any practice that is thousands of years of history. You know what I mean? Like, to me, that that that is just as strong as, you know, scientific research Right. To to show that millions of people have been using this for 1000 of years, and keep on showing up to do it.

Emily:

Like, obviously, there's some, there's some substance there. So, thankfully, we we can we can take this into our own hands to a large degree as the, red tape for obtaining all the science kind of pans itself out.

Lisa:

Yeah. It's interesting though. I mean, I think it what you just said made me think about, another quote that you had shared with me that you saved of something along the lines of trust. Mhmm. Yeah.

Lisa:

We can trust based on our experience and evidence.

Emily:

The cornerstone of faith is trust in yourself. Mhmm. Yeah. So if there's if there's a lack of of of faith in in a certain outcome, I guess, or the the biggest, yeah, the cornerstone of faith is is trusting yourself.

Lisa:

Did that quote that you captured in your notes, did that come from the same podcast and conversation or a different one from your day?

Emily:

I think so.

Lisa:

Because they kinda flow together. You know, finding that trust within yourself and just, like, reinforcing it.

Emily:

Yeah. I think I think it was from the same Yeah. Podcast.

Lisa:

Okay. Those are good daily nuggets for today. I think it's it feels like when and I love to listen to podcasts and, I listen to tarot cards and read books and things when I'm walking. And there are some, you know, conditioning and programming that happens, you know, that whatever carries it, whatever you're listening to carries into your conversation, into your projects, into your day. But the topic of of trust and trusting yourself to be able to believe that not only just achieve, but to believe that you can know in the blank is

Emily:

Well and when is faith required? Right? Faith is required in times of uncertainty. Mhmm. Right?

Emily:

Like, we don't know we don't know what's gonna happen.

Lisa:

We're just gonna call the time.

Emily:

So if you don't trust right. And it's it's amplified, you know, right now in the last 2 months, I would say, just with all the upheavals and and stuff like that. Like, so much is is uncertain right now. But trusting yourself, right, to, make the best decisions with the information that that you currently have and trusting yourself to be able to, be adaptable in the uncertainty allows you to, show up to that situation with faith that it's going to work out, for the greatest good Yeah. Ultimately.

Lisa:

Yeah. I know it's kind of like a double edged sword, but also I just like the concept of also, like, trusting people and the environment in the scenario. And that the Well,

Emily:

and it's I think I think you have to trust yourself first. Right? Because how could you how could you trust other people if you don't

Lisa:

Yeah.

Emily:

If you don't trust yourself kinda thing. And then yeah. It's trust it starts with trusting yourself. Right? There's other elements to it, but to trust that everything is going to work out for the greatest good starts Mhmm.

Emily:

Starts there. You can't you can't expand from that if you don't have that in yourself.

Lisa:

Yeah. I think in our last or one of our last, energy check ins, we were talking about being discerning about who you share big ideas with. Remember the the reading about stupid people reign?

Emily:

Kinda.

Lisa:

Yeah. I think I remember all of them. That's my superpower. I remember every every collective reading. But I think this topic makes a lot of sense for that, reinforcement of cultivating that trust and faith in ourselves.

Lisa:

But that exercise of asking that question, in that way is beginning.

Emily:

Mhmm.

Lisa:

I like it. Thank you for sharing those. I think they're so good. Maybe we should do more segments and shows around thoughts that you receive from your walking meditation.

Emily:

Sit that other people say.

Lisa:

That are in your phone.

Emily:

Yes. That are in my phone. I mean, you know, I'm not That's what I'm saying. Like, I I won't write 90% of the things down that I absolutely should be writing down on a regular basis. So if I stop what I'm doing to to write a quote down, that's that's big.

Emily:

That's big.

Lisa:

Yeah. Well, it's important, and it probably resonates with a lot of people at the right time. I'm more of like a a screen shotter, so I'm a visual person, so I screenshot a lot of things. I don't do

Emily:

You do that? I do that, but then I have so many, like, photos and videos on my phone that I really rarely interact with those screenshots again. So if I have it all in in one space in my notes app, then I always wish I wrote more. Like, well, where the hell did that come from?

Lisa:

Yeah. Do you do do you use some voice notes? Do you talk into your phone?

Emily:

Sometimes. It depends on what

Lisa:

you want. Yeah. I have a lot of friends that send me their voice notes. Like, I get a lot of really people like to share, like, their dreams or whatever, and then

Emily:

It would be voice to text, not, like, voice notes. Okay.

Lisa:

We get a lot of, like, voice note recordings and and things like that. I'm like, that's such a great idea because there's so many times that I have, like, a shower idea or, like, what you got from a dream, and I don't wanna text it. But using the voice notes is a good way to capture it and save it for later, so you can use it when the time is right.

Emily:

Yeah. I don't know if I don't know if I have that in the iPhone notes app. That's that's all I'm using. I don't think you can just make separate, like, audio files.

Lisa:

It would take up a lot of space on your phone.

Emily:

But I do like WhatsApp for that. Yeah. For you non for you non iPhone users. Yeah. Because we can send those we can send those via text Right.

Emily:

Between iPhones.

Lisa:

Yeah. I do like those. Yeah. Those are good. But good talking to Emily.

Lisa:

I like it. Anything that we should feed everybody with before we

Emily:

Just change your question. Yeah. Change your question. If you find yourself stuck, frustrated, blocked, or, you know, any anything, kinda similar to that, just unsure as to how to move forward or even just in a situation where you wanna feel better about something. Like, you don't like the way you feel about something, you know a a mindset or a perspective change would be helpful, but you're not quite sure how to get there, just change your question.

Lisa:

Yeah. What do

Emily:

I need to believe? What do I need to do?

Lisa:

Let's take that question inside of the Conscious Collaboration Collective, our closing private Facebook group. It's been a while. I need to I need to check-in there and put some put some energy into it. Mhmm. Still gone still gone through the emails, but I'd love to have that conversation inside there.
