1
00:00:00,770 --> 00:00:05,000
Hello, my fellow sovereigns.
It is good to be back in the
2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,900
studio with you today.
I mean, I know you're not here
3
00:00:08,900 --> 00:00:13,550
with me, but I feel you with me,
and it is such an honor. I am like.
4
00:00:14,230 --> 00:00:18,490
Pull in from this past six seven?
Nope.
5
00:00:18,490 --> 00:00:23,830
Eight weeks of travel now where
I have gone to conferences,
6
00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:27,730
spoken at conferences,
gave a coronation at a conference.
7
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:34,870
It has been a whirlwind of nationwide
travel that has been such a joy
8
00:00:34,870 --> 00:00:38,770
and such an energetic up leveling,
because I definitely had to
9
00:00:38,770 --> 00:00:42,340
restructure things in my family
life in order to make sure that it
10
00:00:42,340 --> 00:00:47,710
everything was going smoothly, and I
learned very quickly that my youngest
11
00:00:47,710 --> 00:00:51,610
son does not like me being away.
I mean, what what child likes their
12
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:56,800
their mom being away anyways.
But if I am away on a trip of
13
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:02,770
any kind the next day or two,
I have to dedicate to my children
14
00:01:02,770 --> 00:01:06,460
like it is not even an option.
Like they are so clingy,
15
00:01:06,460 --> 00:01:11,050
they are so in need of my attention
after that time of being gone
16
00:01:11,050 --> 00:01:16,240
that I really deeply dedicate and
care for that time to rebalance.
17
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,510
Even though you know, I don't believe
in balance, but to rebalance,
18
00:01:19,510 --> 00:01:23,890
for lack of a better word,
the the paradigm of connection and
19
00:01:23,890 --> 00:01:27,850
making sure that they feel so loved
and supported in my in my absence
20
00:01:27,850 --> 00:01:31,030
and when I get back and that they
know mommy always comes home.
21
00:01:31,270 --> 00:01:35,050
One of my favorite experiences
was when I was giving the
22
00:01:35,050 --> 00:01:39,700
coronation at the Dames with
Precious Pitch Master Williams.
23
00:01:39,700 --> 00:01:42,460
And if you don't know who she is,
I'm going to put her links to
24
00:01:42,460 --> 00:01:46,420
follow her and how amazing she
is in the comments below.
25
00:01:46,420 --> 00:01:49,870
It was such an honor to share
the stage with her, she jokes.
26
00:01:49,870 --> 00:01:53,230
She's like, I'm a full figure diva
and I was like, I'm a fun size mama.
27
00:01:53,230 --> 00:01:56,200
And so together we were coming
together in full force to make
28
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:01,060
sure that these dames,
which is an amazing group of six
29
00:02:01,060 --> 00:02:03,130
out and eight figure businesswoman
that I have been blessed to be a
30
00:02:03,130 --> 00:02:07,810
part of for the past three years.
These women just left this fun
31
00:02:07,810 --> 00:02:09,130
friends because it's cool.
Fun friends.
32
00:02:09,130 --> 00:02:12,790
It's not called a conference
that they left with an
33
00:02:13,060 --> 00:02:17,830
incredible experience of
embodying the Queen from within.
34
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,360
Because when I was asked to do
this coronation, I was told like,
35
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,910
I don't just want by the founder,
Megan Condra.
36
00:02:24,910 --> 00:02:29,950
She's like, I don't just want this to
be like another seminar or another.
37
00:02:29,950 --> 00:02:32,230
Like, here's your five step to do's.
She's like,
38
00:02:32,230 --> 00:02:35,440
I want this to be embodiment.
And she's like, you know how to
39
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:39,220
do that? And she just trusted me.
Like she literally was like,
40
00:02:39,220 --> 00:02:42,880
here is the entire conference of
people that have entrusted me with
41
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,330
with their time and money and coming
to this fun prince, and you just
42
00:02:46,330 --> 00:02:52,330
go for it. Do what you want to do.
Precious and I met once online, once
43
00:02:52,330 --> 00:02:55,570
in person before the fun Prince. We.
I sent her an outline of what we
44
00:02:55,570 --> 00:02:56,650
were going to do.
She was like,
45
00:02:56,650 --> 00:03:00,310
I'm going to follow your lead,
queen. Let's go. And we did it.
46
00:03:00,310 --> 00:03:04,090
And I mean, it was such an honor
because if you know precious and
47
00:03:04,090 --> 00:03:06,820
you will because you're going to
follow her because she's amazing,
48
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:14,650
that she is a full just amazing.
She commands her presence and to for
49
00:03:14,650 --> 00:03:20,140
someone to see that I could hold
the stage with her as two sister
50
00:03:20,140 --> 00:03:27,010
queens together, united as a as as
as a front for for women, taking
51
00:03:27,010 --> 00:03:30,950
command and taking back our power.
Oh my gosh,
52
00:03:30,950 --> 00:03:37,100
that was the biggest honor.
And it was so beautiful that as I was
53
00:03:37,100 --> 00:03:41,300
with precious, I was meditating and
thinking about what does it mean
54
00:03:41,300 --> 00:03:47,180
to treat things with preciousness?
So you get you know,
55
00:03:47,180 --> 00:03:49,070
I get nerdy on language.
So I'm going to read to you the
56
00:03:49,070 --> 00:03:51,740
definition of precious because
it's amazing.
57
00:03:51,740 --> 00:03:55,280
And mind you, now I am talking
about the word, not the person.
58
00:03:55,760 --> 00:04:00,560
So precious is an adjective.
It means an object, substance,
59
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,780
or resource of great value not to
be wasted or treated carelessly.
60
00:04:05,780 --> 00:04:09,290
Precious works of art,
greatly loved or treasured by
61
00:04:09,290 --> 00:04:15,680
someone or used for emphasis,
and sometimes in an ironic content,
62
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:21,350, sometimes in an ironic context.
And then as a noun, it's used as a
63
00:04:21,350 --> 00:04:25,790
term to address a beloved person.
So it's a perfect name for precious.
64
00:04:25,790 --> 00:04:29,810
And it got me thinking about
preciousness in our businesses
65
00:04:29,810 --> 00:04:32,630
and in our lives.
When we start to treat things
66
00:04:32,630 --> 00:04:38,450
with a level of preciousness.
Because I see preciousness in
67
00:04:38,450 --> 00:04:42,680
two ways.
In one, I see it in the manifestation
68
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,490
principle of reverence.
Now, in order to create and manifest
69
00:04:46,490 --> 00:04:50,590
anything in this world, you need.
Two. You need three things.
70
00:04:50,590 --> 00:04:53,110
You need to be specific as far
as what it is that you want.
71
00:04:53,110 --> 00:04:56,530
You need to be courageous to take
the bold action to go for it.
72
00:04:56,530 --> 00:05:00,340
It's not just about the vibration of,
you know, being in the vibration
73
00:05:00,340 --> 00:05:03,700
of courage, like the vibration of
courage is an active vibration.
74
00:05:03,700 --> 00:05:08,380
You have to move forward and do
the scary action, send the email,
75
00:05:08,380 --> 00:05:12,280
call the client back,
have that courageous conversation.
76
00:05:12,280 --> 00:05:15,760
Hold the boundary like you have
to take that courageous step.
77
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:21,130
And then the third is there has to be
a reverence along with the fourth,
78
00:05:21,130 --> 00:05:23,650
which I didn't mention.
There has to be an underlying
79
00:05:23,650 --> 00:05:27,370
basis of positivity.
So but the reference piece is the
80
00:05:27,370 --> 00:05:34,270
one that I see is regularly missed.
Is having this reverence or having
81
00:05:34,270 --> 00:05:39,880
a reverence or a preciousness for
what it is that you're doing and.
82
00:05:41,100 --> 00:05:46,860
That reverence is what is a through
line that carries forth and beyond.
83
00:05:48,300 --> 00:05:53,670
Into a space of the spiritual realm.
It takes the work that you're doing
84
00:05:53,670 --> 00:05:57,840
and it is bringing honor to it.
It is.
85
00:05:58,510 --> 00:06:01,630
I mean, think of this in terms
of the Queen metaphor, right?
86
00:06:01,630 --> 00:06:07,510
So a queen has reverence for her duty
because it is her responsibility
87
00:06:07,510 --> 00:06:09,940
to put that forth into the world.
And so this was something that I
88
00:06:09,940 --> 00:06:15,010
talked about with precious on
stage at the coronation of a queen
89
00:06:15,010 --> 00:06:18,190
is born with the expectation
that she's going to rule.
90
00:06:18,190 --> 00:06:21,880
And there is a level of honor
and respect and duty and
91
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,680
reverence for that role that is
cultivated not only by herself,
92
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,590
but also by the people and leaders
around her and by the environment.
93
00:06:29,590 --> 00:06:32,380
And there's a reverence for the
role of Queen.
94
00:06:32,380 --> 00:06:37,240
That's why even in the anointing
ceremony of the Queen, it is hidden,
95
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:43,860
because that is the most.
Reverent portion of the ceremony,
96
00:06:43,860 --> 00:06:46,590
whether it's the Queen or the
recent coronation of the King.
97
00:06:46,590 --> 00:06:53,130
Like that ceremony is where it is
believed that she is anointed,
98
00:06:53,130 --> 00:06:58,230
or he is anointed with the holy oil
that binds them with the divine
99
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:03,750
to be guided by God's source
universe's holy wish. Like that.
100
00:07:03,750 --> 00:07:06,690
That is a level of reverence
that takes place.
101
00:07:07,430 --> 00:07:12,260
Now imagine if you infuse that into
that which you want to create.
102
00:07:12,290 --> 00:07:16,610
Oh my gosh.
Like if you treated the work that
103
00:07:16,610 --> 00:07:21,590
you're creating as a holy work of
art, whether it's your book or your
104
00:07:21,590 --> 00:07:27,410
business or your super sexy sales
strategy or your systems that you're
105
00:07:27,410 --> 00:07:32,150
building for your for your team,
if you supported that with a level
106
00:07:32,150 --> 00:07:36,200
of reverence and preciousness for
what it is that you're doing,
107
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:40,250
treating it like a work of art,
like something that is precious.
108
00:07:40,490 --> 00:07:44,210
Now, I said,
I see preciousness as twofold.
109
00:07:44,300 --> 00:07:48,170
So the other part that I see
that gets conflated in
110
00:07:48,170 --> 00:07:54,130
preciousness is when.
We come at treating a project,
111
00:07:54,130 --> 00:08:00,030
a business, something that we're
working on with pride. With.
112
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:05,000
Overt hyper attention to the details.
Now, there can be overt hyper
113
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,000
attention to the details in a
positive way, which is very true
114
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,260
of like you look at the top CEOs
of the world and they have an
115
00:08:12,260 --> 00:08:16,130
incredible knack for details.
I mean, if you study Steve Jobs,
116
00:08:16,130 --> 00:08:19,550
he was very clear,
like there was a whole discussion
117
00:08:19,550 --> 00:08:23,000
around the decision to make the
edges of the Mac laptop or the
118
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,200
Mac computer rounded, not square.
It was a whole thing,
119
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,710
like a precious.
That is a precious detail that I
120
00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:32,660
actually, quite frankly,
appreciate because I'm not
121
00:08:32,660 --> 00:08:37,730
scratching myself on the corner
of a computer and. Looking at.
122
00:08:37,730 --> 00:08:41,900
Where in your life are you
treating your or where in your
123
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:44,960
life or in your business?
Are you treating something with such
124
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:52,190
preciousness that you are refusing to
release it, to let it serve others?
125
00:08:52,190 --> 00:08:55,970
Because that is the difference
between the reverence that comes from
126
00:08:55,970 --> 00:09:00,860
the highly ordained service where
it's like, okay, I'm going to I am
127
00:09:00,860 --> 00:09:04,340
in this role of Queens is my job.
I have reverence for this title.
128
00:09:04,340 --> 00:09:07,010
I have reverence for the
business that I'm building,
129
00:09:07,010 --> 00:09:10,550
for the empire that I'm creating
because it is serving others,
130
00:09:10,550 --> 00:09:15,890
because it is a reverence to
service versus a preciousness
131
00:09:15,890 --> 00:09:22,330
where you are holding tightly to.
That thing and not releasing it
132
00:09:22,330 --> 00:09:28,460
so that it doesn't serve anyone.
Because.
133
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,900
If you're not getting it out of
you or having it move through you,
134
00:09:32,900 --> 00:09:37,610
it is serving no one and in fact it
is keeping you stifled and stuck.
135
00:09:38,330 --> 00:09:42,680
And that is when pride starts to
create preciousness and it
136
00:09:42,680 --> 00:09:48,590
builds up into perfectionism.
And it creates more resistance and it
137
00:09:48,590 --> 00:09:52,790
builds up a wall and it blockades
you from actually serving you, sir.
138
00:09:53,300 --> 00:09:56,060
And it blockades you from
actually serving others.
139
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,140
It's like that ruler. Like you.
I mean, if you have studied any form
140
00:10:00,140 --> 00:10:04,430
of history of any monarchs or any, governmental leaders who kind
141
00:10:04,430 --> 00:10:07,550
of build up a wall of protection
around themselves, and they don't
142
00:10:07,550 --> 00:10:11,120
they're just the dictators.
They build up a wall and it's
143
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,340
everything's precious about them.
But nothing is really for the
144
00:10:13,340 --> 00:10:20,410
service of their people.
And that is where we have to look at.
145
00:10:20,410 --> 00:10:24,220
Where are we being precious in a
positive way, treating what we're
146
00:10:24,220 --> 00:10:28,330
creating as reverent as something
that's going to be of service,
147
00:10:28,450 --> 00:10:32,770
that something is divinely called
forth from us, through us.
148
00:10:33,010 --> 00:10:39,370
One of my favorite quotes is from
Joan of Arc, and she says, and it's
149
00:10:39,370 --> 00:10:44,920
her quotes are so well known because
her trial was so deeply documented.
150
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,110
And so what she said was very
well known.
151
00:10:47,110 --> 00:10:50,710
And she said, I have no fear,
I was born to do this.
152
00:10:50,710 --> 00:10:54,070
And she took this calling from
within,
153
00:10:54,070 --> 00:10:57,850
from the angels that she heard.
And she marched into battle and
154
00:10:57,850 --> 00:11:02,710
stripped herself self of her female
sort of style, and put on battle
155
00:11:02,710 --> 00:11:08,810
armor and led troops into victory.
And I mean, that's war.
156
00:11:08,930 --> 00:11:11,570
That is war that she was leading
people into.
157
00:11:11,570 --> 00:11:14,300
And she had courage and reverence.
For what?
158
00:11:14,300 --> 00:11:17,180
For the calling that was called
forth from her.
159
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,500
And I believe that every creation
that we have is called forth.
160
00:11:22,130 --> 00:11:26,480
We are called to create those
ideas that we are blessed with.
161
00:11:27,180 --> 00:11:31,140
One of my favorite books is Big
Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert, and in
162
00:11:31,140 --> 00:11:36,960
it she talks about an idea of the
kind of it touches people's lives,
163
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,560
but if they don't do anything with
it, it floats onto somebody else.
164
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,740
And it's like, have you ever had
those experiences where, like,
165
00:11:43,740 --> 00:11:46,830
I had that idea like 30 years ago,
and then you see it on Shark Tank.
166
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,720
And believe me, I have heard that
one too many a time from way too
167
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,470
many entrepreneurs who have really,
really good hearts and they just
168
00:11:55,470 --> 00:11:58,680
didn't follow through with those
things that they that were called
169
00:11:58,680 --> 00:12:03,930
forth in their hearts to create.
And whether it was fear or scarcity
170
00:12:03,930 --> 00:12:08,550
or doubt or imposter syndrome, which
all basically translate into one,
171
00:12:08,550 --> 00:12:15,810
the one and only fear, then that
is where we get stuck, where we.
172
00:12:17,630 --> 00:12:22,310
Don't trust our own calling.
Where we treat that.
173
00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:28,820
That thing with maybe preciousness.
Like maybe if you and I have seen
174
00:12:28,820 --> 00:12:33,200
this way too many times, if you get
stuck in the research rabbit hole.
175
00:12:34,020 --> 00:12:38,190
Oh, I'm going to release my I'm going
to start my business if I just,
176
00:12:38,190 --> 00:12:43,870
you know, I'm.
Oh, I'm still writing my book.
177
00:12:43,930 --> 00:12:47,890
Believe me, I had this excuse.
It is no longer there.
178
00:12:47,890 --> 00:12:49,900
The book is being written.
You just wait.
179
00:12:49,900 --> 00:12:54,310
2024 is a year of the books.
And yes, I said it was plural.
180
00:12:55,690 --> 00:13:01,960
Hold on to your hats because it's
with that preciousness that.
181
00:13:02,570 --> 00:13:07,340
We take every word super precious,
and we take every piece of
182
00:13:07,340 --> 00:13:11,150
content as super precious,
and we're so scared that it creates
183
00:13:11,150 --> 00:13:16,880
this level of perfectionism within us
that no longer treats preciousness
184
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:25,420
with reverence. But it treats it.
With pride. And ego.
185
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:31,260
And causes us to hold on and
lock down and lock ourselves in
186
00:13:31,290 --> 00:13:35,570
that castle tower.
Surrounded by our creation.
187
00:13:35,570 --> 00:13:41,070
That's not serving anyone because
we're not releasing it. And so.
188
00:13:42,230 --> 00:13:48,150
It is with this day that let this.
And so on.
189
00:13:48,150 --> 00:13:54,330
This day, I challenge you to let
this be the day that you purge the
190
00:13:54,330 --> 00:13:59,400
precious perfectionism with from
your work, from your creations,
191
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:04,110
from your business, from your life.
And you start treating
192
00:14:04,110 --> 00:14:09,300
everything in your life that you
are creating everything.
193
00:14:09,300 --> 00:14:14,040
I mean, from your eggs at
breakfast to your cup of tea,
194
00:14:14,070 --> 00:14:18,180
to your children, to the relationship
that you have with your partner,
195
00:14:18,180 --> 00:14:22,440
to the relationships that you
have with your business and your
196
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,430
clients and your team.
Treat all of that with a level
197
00:14:26,430 --> 00:14:33,030
of precious reverence.
And watch how your business will
198
00:14:33,030 --> 00:14:37,580
transform.
I think reverence is a whole like
199
00:14:37,580 --> 00:14:43,100
level deeper than gratitude.
Gratitude because we can have
200
00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:45,890
our gratitude list and it keeps
it all surface.
201
00:14:45,890 --> 00:14:48,800
And it's like, hey, I'm grateful for
this, and I'm grateful for my house,
202
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:55,040
and I'm grateful for my family.
You feel into the difference
203
00:14:55,040 --> 00:15:00,530
when you have reverence for the
holiness that is in the spaces
204
00:15:00,530 --> 00:15:05,920
that you're walking into?
For the creation that is being
205
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:10,060
birthed through you,
for the divine ideas that you
206
00:15:10,060 --> 00:15:13,000
have been blessed with.
Not any other people have not been
207
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:17,020
blessed with them yet because you
still have time to take action.
208
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:21,820
You just gotta choose to take action.
And so let this be the day that
209
00:15:21,820 --> 00:15:26,560
you purge the preciousness of
perfectionism from your work, and you
210
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:33,520
start to cultivate that precious
reverence for every single thing
211
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:39,480
that you are doing and honoring.
Those acts,
212
00:15:39,660 --> 00:15:45,510
because it is from that space that
you embody a queen or a king,
213
00:15:45,510 --> 00:15:50,070
and you claim that sovereignty of
the power of your manifested souls,
214
00:15:50,070 --> 00:15:56,550
as we say in our house, yes, manifest
as we swing them large lying.
215
00:15:56,730 --> 00:15:58,470
Yes,
that's actually what we call them.
216
00:15:58,470 --> 00:16:03,090
I have boys, it it works that
you swing your manifesting souls
217
00:16:03,090 --> 00:16:07,410
and that you honor that you are
inseminating. Oh, yeah.
218
00:16:07,410 --> 00:16:11,460
We're using all the references here
that you are inseminating your dream.
219
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:19,750
With reverence. And a preciousness.
For that which was given to you.
220
00:16:20,660 --> 00:16:25,010
Because that which was given to
you can be taken away if we don't
221
00:16:25,010 --> 00:16:29,600
honor it, if we don't use it,
if we don't cherish it.
222
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,840
So keep honoring,
keep cherishing. Keep.
223
00:16:35,450 --> 00:16:41,150
Putting preciousness in the form
of reverence into all that you do.
224
00:16:42,610 --> 00:16:47,430
And more of that will come.
If you love this episode.
225
00:16:47,430 --> 00:16:49,950
If you felt it served,
if you felt called fourth,
226
00:16:49,950 --> 00:16:52,590
then definitely take a screenshot
of it and share it with me on
227
00:16:52,590 --> 00:16:57,720
Instagram tag at Crown Yourself Now.
And I love seeing your screenshots
228
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,180
and your breakthroughs and your
ahas and your reviews.
229
00:17:00,180 --> 00:17:03,390
And please, please, please do me
the biggest, grandest favor and
230
00:17:03,390 --> 00:17:07,560
just share it with one person.
Because that act of kindness not only
231
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:12,660
benefits me and the listenership
and the growth of this podcast,
232
00:17:12,660 --> 00:17:17,520
but it also brings you some
sweet good karma and it also
233
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,340
benefits the other person.
This is how we start to lead and
234
00:17:20,340 --> 00:17:24,180
lift each other up, because that is
how a rising tide lifts all boats.
235
00:17:24,210 --> 00:17:27,450
I have the utmost reverence for you,
and I am so grateful that you
236
00:17:27,450 --> 00:17:31,440
have listened this far and are a
continued, loyal listener.
237
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,690
Thank you for subscribing.
Thank you for listening.
238
00:17:33,690 --> 00:17:36,900
Thank you for sharing.
I am honored to be here with you
239
00:17:36,900 --> 00:17:40,500
on our sovereign journey.
As always, own your throne.
240
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:43,590
Mind your business because your
reign is now.
