6

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Good morning

and welcome to the Choosing Happy podcast.

7

:

I'm Heather Masters, and it's August.

8

:

It's Woo Month, where we explore

all things energy, spirituality,

9

:

and sixth sense to help you with

your life and business, especially

10

:

in these uncertain times.

11

:

Today, I have the greatest pleasure

to talk with the amazing Cassie Hicks,

12

:

who is an experienced business and

energetics coach specializing in client

13

:

attraction for ambitious entrepreneurs.

14

:

Welcome Cassie.

15

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Good morning, Heather.

16

:

Thank you so much for inviting me here

17

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Oh, it's.

18

:

A pleasure to have you.

19

:

And could you tell us a little

bit more about yourself, about who

20

:

you help and how you help them,

especially around the energetics part?

21

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Absolutely.

22

:

So I'm Cassie Hicks and I help ambitious

fempriners to get fully booked with

23

:

soulmate clients, but without hustle,

without bro marketing, uh, using

24

:

energetically aligned strategies.

25

:

And I'm a big proponent of human design.

26

:

So I'm sure we'll be talking about that.

27

:

I'm also a mom.

28

:

I've got a rescue dog.

29

:

And I've manifested my dream home.

30

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Can you begin

then by telling us a little bit about your

31

:

journey and how you found your way into

human design, energetics, and as you say,

32

:

how you manifested what you've manifested

for yourself in your life as well?

33

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Yes, I mean, my background,

34

:

I've had a career in marketing.

35

:

So firstly corporate, and then

I ran a, I was a director of

36

:

fundraising for a national charity.

37

:

So I was effectively, you know, in

the marketing in the third sector and

38

:

then started a marketing agency that I

ran for eight years very successfully.

39

:

I started that up as a single mum going

through a divorce with two young children,

40

:

built it up to six figures, everything on

the outside seemed very rosy and business

41

:

was very, very successful, but I started

to feel like it was a little bit soulless

42

:

and I was managing a team of eight.

43

:

We had some really big clients, we're

handling a lot of money with ad campaigns,

44

:

but there was, it just started to feel

soulless and at the same time I've always

45

:

been interested in personal development

but I don't think I'd really embraced my

46

:

spiritual journey until I got into my 50s

and um I started to have this internal

47

:

struggle between my spiritual side and

the agency that I was running and what I

48

:

really wanted to do is bring those pieces

together and it took me about two years

49

:

to really fully integrate and embody.

50

:

Marketing with spirituality.

51

:

And I now, now that I'm in that

place, it, to me, it seems like the

52

:

obvious answer for everyone that's

running a business, particularly

53

:

conscious heart centered women who are

running businesses their lifestyle.

54

:

And it's about fulfillment and

happiness, not just about making

55

:

money and Being a business woman,

it's about that holistic lifestyle.

56

:

And so for me, the manifestation

part has been very important too.

57

:

So in terms of, I've manifested all sorts

of things in my life, relationships,

58

:

cars, money, but most recently my

dream home, has been quite a story,

59

:

as you probably know from the Fully

Booked for Entrepreneur Festival.

60

:

Um, so for me, this is

a continuing journey.

61

:

I've still got a long way to go, but

I'm attracting women who are quite

62

:

often spiritually in the closet,

particularly if they've come from

63

:

corporate, but they know that there's

64

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Hmm.

65

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

than just the strategies.

66

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Okay.

67

:

There's a lot there.

68

:

So can we, can we go back?

69

:

You said it, it took you two

years to really bring together

70

:

the spirituality and the business.

71

:

Can you tell us a little bit about that

journey just for other entrepreneurs who

72

:

might be struggling with the same thing?

73

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Yeah, I mean, the word here is

74

:

pivoting, and that's quite a trendy

word, isn't it now to pivot from

75

:

one type of business to another.

76

:

And so I, I thought it would be a very

easy pivot for me to go from running

77

:

a marketing agency to being a coach.

78

:

I had all the experience, I had

the client base, I had the brand.

79

:

I had the audience and I just thought

I would wake up one day and decide

80

:

I was going to be a coach and would

fall into place and it didn't.

81

:

I actually burnt my business

to the ground and effectively

82

:

started from scratch and then I

83

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Right.

84

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

brick wall after brick

85

:

wall after brick wall.

86

:

And that's why it took two years.

87

:

And during that time I was serving

clients and running my business, but

88

:

I was always going between the, Oh,

I'm doing strategy at the moment.

89

:

And then, Oh, I'm doing

energy alignment over here.

90

:

And I was running it as separate

programs and with separate clients.

91

:

And for me, the difficult thing

about pivoting was that it was very

92

:

much about me running the agency

was a bit like being working for

93

:

a company where you're behind the.

94

:

The company brand

95

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah.

96

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

was when you're a coach, very, you're,

97

:

you're, well I felt very exposed and

I felt very, it was very personal, um,

98

:

and I found that really hard and I had

to do a lot of, huge amount of healing

99

:

work, so I did a lot of shadow work,

this is where the human design came

100

:

in as well of, Understanding myself,

understanding where I needed healing, um,

101

:

clearing traumas and working with energy.

102

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah.

103

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753: So

that two year process was the beginning

104

:

of a, another, you know, major chapter.

105

:

So I'm sure people can probably

relate to that as well.

106

:

You know, you, you start with one

thing and that opens up another

107

:

door and then you go through that

door and that opens up another door.

108

:

So I hope that makes sense.

109

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754:

Yeah, absolutely.

110

:

Going through that.

111

:

Did that lay the foundation for the

way you work with your clients now?

112

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Oh, absolutely.

113

:

Yes.

114

:

Yeah.

115

:

I couldn't, I mean, you can't coach

somebody to go through something.

116

:

I don't think if you haven't been through

something, you know, similar yourself,

117

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah.

118

:

Yeah.

119

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

with the, with the shadow work, I

120

:

think for to do shadow work, you have

to have been through that yourself and

121

:

experience the, the emotions and the

release and, and finding out where the

122

:

blocks are and if you've got any trauma

and How that's connected to the mind body

123

:

spirit, how that shows through in your

marketing and in your business results.

124

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah.

125

:

Um, a question on trauma.

126

:

This is just my experience, my

observation, and I just wanted to check

127

:

in with you that, um, In my experience

at the moment, there are a lot of people

128

:

who I speak with who don't recognise

that what's blocking them is trauma.

129

:

They don't put themselves in,

you know, they don't think that

130

:

they've experienced trauma.

131

:

Because trauma, if you talk about it

generally, we tend to relate it to

132

:

big events rather than significant

events, if that makes sense.

133

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Yeah, and I think as well trauma is

134

:

one of those things that People think

it has to be something very extreme

135

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Mm,

136

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

when actually trauma can be something.

137

:

I'm no, I'm not an expert in this at

all, but just from my own experience,

138

:

trauma can be something that happened

in childhood that looking back as

139

:

an adult wasn't a big deal at all.

140

:

But as a child, the emotional intelligence

to cope with whatever the situation was,

141

:

it can um, seem like a really big issue.

142

:

And When something's triggered us in

any way, it gets stored in the body.

143

:

And yeah, that becomes

a block later in life.

144

:

And it's only if you're willing to do

the work and really face up to yourself

145

:

and look at the things that are holding

you back in your business that you find.

146

:

I know when you talk about, for me, trauma

goes very much with the word victim.

147

:

And I always really resisted.

148

:

Any thought that I was a victim in

any area of my life, I really pushed

149

:

against that for a long time until

I realized that actually in certain

150

:

aspects of my life, particularly back

then, it was around money stories.

151

:

I was being a victim in

certain parts of my business.

152

:

I just didn't want to acknowledge it.

153

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: yeah.

154

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753: when

I was willing and able and ready to really

155

:

face that part of myself and be honest

about it with myself that I could heal it.

156

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah, yeah,

I think that is really key because you

157

:

can hear in exactly what you said, the

story, what story are you telling yourself

158

:

that is supporting your limitations,

and that's usually where there's some

159

:

trauma or something to heal, isn't it?

160

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

I mean, everybody's got something.

161

:

We've all, everybody has some

things to clear and everyone

162

:

needs healing at a certain level.

163

:

You know, it's a spiral that just,

can either let it take you up

164

:

or you can let it take you down.

165

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754:

Mm, absolutely.

166

:

Mm.

167

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

work and human design, which is about

168

:

deconditioning, very much about choosing

to spiral up instead of spiraling

169

:

down because we can naturally, as

humans, we have a negative bias

170

:

within us and we have to consciously

choose to not get spiraled down.

171

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: So how

do you work with someone on that?

172

:

Um, just as an example, not, you

know, you don't have to go into

173

:

great depths because I'm sure there's

a lot, a lot involved in that.

174

:

But what's your approach?

175

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

on the situation but I'm, I'm very

176

:

intuitive and this is again something

I didn't allow myself to sort of

177

:

own for a long time in my business.

178

:

for me it's, through a series of questions

that I'll ask clients and through the

179

:

language that people use I their energy

and I can easily spot where the blocks

180

:

are and what's holding them back through

the language that they're using and it's

181

:

usually clear to me through people's

marketing too I can look at people's

182

:

content on social media and it's again

it's very apparent to me where somebody's

183

:

blocked or what's What they're not

saying that they want to say, you know,

184

:

those sorts of, what do you call it?

185

:

Sort of reading between the lines.

186

:

So when I work with clients, I'm, say

I'm asking questions and then reading

187

:

their energy, listening to their language

patterns and doing the same when I

188

:

look at their, their social media.

189

:

And that's really, we take it from

there, depending on the situation

190

:

and the block and what it is that

they're trying to do in their business.

191

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: So taking

it into that aligned offer, that

192

:

aligned attraction marketing, um,

193

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753: Mm.

194

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: obviously

you're working with the blocks.

195

:

What else do you work with and where

does human design come into that?

196

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

So, Human design is a tool.

197

:

And again, I struggled with this

because I don't want to be defined

198

:

as a human design Although I do

know a lot about human design, I've

199

:

been using it for about five years.

200

:

But for me, it's a tool, the

energetics is, is a more powerful

201

:

tool, but human design gives you

a roadmap to really understand how

202

:

you're programmed energetically.

203

:

And I've been doing recently is

really looking at the different types

204

:

marketing and what goes into your

personal brand, like your messaging,

205

:

what makes you magnetic to clients,

and looking at what part of your

206

:

human design chart relates to that and

reflects those parts of your brand.

207

:

of ourselves.

208

:

so when I work with clients and we're

working with human design, we'll have a

209

:

look at their chart and have a look at

the different aspects of their chart and

210

:

how that affects their communication,

their content, their messaging, and

211

:

how they can use that to connect with

clients, attract clients, and then convert

212

:

clients into higher paying clients.

213

:

So there's a lot, it's multi multifaceted,

it's, It's just a fantastic tool for

214

:

giving those initial insights, but

the real, um, value in human design

215

:

is when you give yourself permission

to really be who you are and to

216

:

really own and embody your own energy,

and that's the part that's hard.

217

:

Reading the charts is the easy bit.

218

:

the, it's the embodiment.

219

:

And that, that can take a long time.

220

:

It's not something that you just

click your fingers and it's done.

221

:

they say deconditioning takes seven

years, but obviously in terms of market it

222

:

doesn't take that long, but it's really,

it really depends how willing and open and

223

:

ready someone is for that next level of

their ascension, if you like, spiritually.

224

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah, yeah.

225

:

Um, from my own personal journey, I

think you already touched on it, that

226

:

sometimes it's, it's the willingness

to see the shadows, it's willingness

227

:

to see that you're not showing up, that

you are, that you're not showing up.

228

:

Supporting your own limitations,

that you are playing the

229

:

victim card in certain areas.

230

:

And that, that can be, um, also

the part that we resist most.

231

:

Um, is that what you find?

232

:

Yeah.

233

:

Yeah.

234

:

Yes.

235

:

Yeah.

236

:

Yes.

237

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Oh yes, but this.

238

:

Oh yes, but you don't know the situation.

239

:

Oh yes, but this.

240

:

And it's really interesting.

241

:

And you're right, the more that someone's

arguing for their limitations, the more

242

:

it's like, okay, that's, that's where

you need to focus and heal and clear

243

:

whatever it is that's, that's there.

244

:

But.

245

:

It's to me, it's, it's really interesting.

246

:

It's a, um, you know, this

personal development journey

247

:

and energetics and human design.

248

:

It's intellectually.

249

:

I'm just, I find it so stimulating because

it's, it's so interesting and it's just

250

:

fascinating the psychology and what

drives people and transformations that

251

:

people can have from one suggestion or one

word can completely transform somebody.

252

:

it's, it's like magic.

253

:

So for me, it's just really, um, you

know, seeing clients having those

254

:

massive transformations, but what it is,

is that, that what seems like a small

255

:

thing, maybe on a, during a session is

actually a key that's unlocking, you

256

:

know, a whole chain of things underneath.

257

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah,

258

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

then that, that allows people to

259

:

really go and fly in their business.

260

:

And suddenly people that didn't

want, I had a client who was,

261

:

didn't want to do live streaming.

262

:

She was really uncomfortable on

camera and she, she argued for

263

:

her limitations and gave all the

reasons why it wasn't for her.

264

:

And I know she, I remember she came on one

of my live streaming challenges and she

265

:

was sort of the most, It was really, and I

just thought, okay, it's just not for her.

266

:

You know, that's fine.

267

:

She can her business a different way.

268

:

Um, and then it was, she joined my

Align marketing program about five years

269

:

ago where we, it was the first time

I taught human design with marketing.

270

:

um, it was just one conversation

and it was like, you could see her

271

:

whole physical appearance shift.

272

:

It was, I mean, it was amazing.

273

:

I've got it on video somewhere.

274

:

you know, realized that actually what

she was arguing against was, was her

275

:

strongest, um, strength, if you like.

276

:

And from there, she, she's, never know,

I'm not going to mention any names,

277

:

but she's someone that's really totally

natural on camera and totally in her

278

:

zone and has just gone to amazing,

amazing heights in her business.

279

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: wonderful.

280

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

that's just an example of how

281

:

human design and energetics can,

you know, help completely sort of

282

:

turn somebody's whole life around.

283

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: So, for

someone who's unfamiliar with human

284

:

design, now I know it's a big topic, is

there a way you can summarize what it is?

285

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

So human design is a mixture of or

286

:

combination of astrology, I Ching, the

chakra system the energetics in your body.

287

:

So it gives you a chart based on your

date and time and place of birth.

288

:

And it's a little bit like, so it is

linked to astrology anyway, but it's a

289

:

little bit like having a fingerprint or a

roadmap of your own energetic blueprint.

290

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah.

291

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753: And

that's a starting point for understanding

292

:

yourself at a much deeper level.

293

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: And

when did you discover human design?

294

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Well, it was obviously more, I mean,

295

:

I said the first time I taught it

was five, about five years ago, so

296

:

probably five and a half years ago.

297

:

And, um, was working with a lady or I

knew a lady through networking locally

298

:

and she was offering readings looking

back I what she did actually wasn't a

299

:

human design reading it was something

else it wasn't human design it just

300

:

made me curious and I started looking at

human design and thinking wow you know

301

:

this is a great tool for understanding

um myself and being on that journey.

302

:

And it tied in with when I was coming

out of the spiritual closet and

303

:

learning about energetics and I became

a Certified Energetic Practitioner.

304

:

took two years.

305

:

So it was another piece of the puzzle

that just complemented the other

306

:

things that I was doing at the time.

307

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: So, an

energetic breakthrough practitioner.

308

:

Can you explain that a little bit more?

309

:

No, it's okay, that one I haven't

actually heard of, so that's interesting.

310

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753: So

energy breakthrough is a particular method

311

:

that's taught to, and the the base basis

of that, of, of, of it is energetics.

312

:

So it's it's wealth energetics,

it's personal energetics, and

313

:

it's really the study of the.

314

:

the non physical part of ourselves.

315

:

I very strongly believe

that we are spiritual beings

316

:

having a human experience.

317

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yep.

318

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

is that part of it, that unseen

319

:

part of us that's linked to source,

the universe, the quantum field,

320

:

whatever name you want to give it.

321

:

I don't like the word

God so I don't use God.

322

:

Um, but that, that unseen metaphysical

part of us, that bigger part of us.

323

:

if you buy into that philosophy, then

324

:

Energy Breakthrough is about working with

that higher part of ourselves to raise

325

:

consciousness and to raise vibration,

not in a rah rah way, but as I say, in

326

:

this way of spiraling up and up leveling.

327

:

And that.

328

:

Applies to all aspects of life,

including business, marketing,

329

:

manifestation, money, relationships,

health, and absolutely everything.

330

:

And the breakthrough method is, um,

a very intense training actually.

331

:

I had to do something like 36 case

studies with clients to get certified.

332

:

we looked at everything from masculine,

feminine energy, did a lot of shadow

333

:

work, inner child work, um, patterns.

334

:

Consciousness.

335

:

So all of those different aspects

that you would, I think, I'm,

336

:

I'm assuming that you and your

listeners know about energetics, but

337

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah,

338

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

people don't, maybe I'm assuming that

339

:

people don't, but does that, does that

340

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754:

yeah, yeah, absolutely.

341

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

where,

342

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754:

sounds very, very powerful.

343

:

Sounds good, good.

344

:

Um, you mentioned manifestation and

money and I, This is my assumption.

345

:

I know I'm doing a bit of a mind read,

but with, with the financial markets

346

:

and with inflation and with people

losing their jobs, I think it's,

347

:

it's probably a great concern at the

moment around wealth and money and

348

:

how is there anything anyone

can do that's even a small thing

349

:

that begins to shift there.

350

:

Their fear around money.

351

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Yeah.

352

:

And here's the thing, the moment you

say that you've got fear around money is

353

:

you're automatically sinking down into

those lower levels of consciousness.

354

:

And that will keep the money away.

355

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yep.

356

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

So the best thing that you can do is to

357

:

not focus on the lack of money, to not

focus on what's going on in the world,

358

:

to not, to not focus on, oh, there's

a cost of living crisis and inflation

359

:

and all of those external things is

to really go within and focus on what

360

:

it is that you want to create in your

life and Money's a part of that because

361

:

we're human and money's the currency

that, you know, we have in our world.

362

:

But by focusing on the lack of something,

you're just bringing more lack.

363

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yep.

364

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

And I know that's, it's, it's a hard

365

:

concept when somebody, and I know

because I've been there and actually

366

:

I'm in a transition period with

the house that I'm in, which has

367

:

triggered a lot of my money fears.

368

:

So I'm not saying it's

an easy thing to do.

369

:

The practice that can really help

people is rather than focusing on

370

:

what you don't have is to focus

on how you want things to be

371

:

and to focus on the potential.

372

:

And this is where energetics,

working with your higher self and the

373

:

quantum field, because the quantum

field is the field of possibility

374

:

and money can come very quickly.

375

:

And what I've discovered is that.

376

:

While I'm working really hard in

my business and I've got clients

377

:

coming in from different areas,

what's really surprised me is that

378

:

by doing the energetic work is that

money's coming from unexpected places.

379

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Right.

380

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

And working with energetics is

381

:

about allowing yourself to receive.

382

:

So it might be that you think,

okay, I'm going to launch a program.

383

:

I'm going to get 10 clients.

384

:

I'm going to charge 1, 500, you

know, so that's a 15k launch.

385

:

And you set yourself that goal

and you think, okay, that's where

386

:

the money is going to come in.

387

:

But actually, we can limit ourselves,

whereas if we work with the, with our

388

:

higher selves in the quantum and be

open to receive money from anywhere,

389

:

you might find that you get that or

more, but not in a way that you expect.

390

:

And it's about being open

to receive abundance.

391

:

And I've found that.

392

:

I've received recently a lot of gifts, so

not in itself, but gifts that are worth

393

:

a lot of money, if that makes sense.

394

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yep.

395

:

Yes.

396

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

things, things that I needed, it would

397

:

have been easy for me to go into a place

of how am I going to afford it, I've got

398

:

these things that I want that I don't

have the money for at the moment, and

399

:

actually those things have all manifested.

400

:

Every, every single one of

them has manifested recently,

401

:

I haven't paid for them.

402

:

They've come from different

unexpected people, unexpected places,

403

:

unexpected kindness and generosity,

and that's the power of energetics.

404

:

And it's, in a way, I'm,

I'm, what's the expression?

405

:

Delighted, but not surprised.

406

:

So I think for people listening that

if you are in a situation where money

407

:

feels tight or the things that you that

you don't feel you can afford is to take

408

:

a big step back out of that situation.

409

:

And if you can, I'm in my, I offer

a 333 daily energy activation, which

410

:

is what I use every single day to get

myself to connect with the quantum

411

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Right.

412

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

and to work with my higher self.

413

:

And that process is what brings in these

things that I've manifested, including

414

:

the house and, and these things recently.

415

:

Um, so yes, if anybody wants

that, it's a free, it's 333, it's

416

:

three minutes, three times a day.

417

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Right.

418

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

And it It activates your energy and

419

:

gets you in a place where you're in the

receptive mode and able to, um, receive.

420

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754:

Because one of the things, just

421

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Yeah,

422

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: you can

want something, but again, come at it

423

:

from you know, I must have it, I must

need it, which is the wrong thing to do.

424

:

energy.

425

:

It's, it's kind of wanting

something but being able to

426

:

let it go in a way, isn't it?

427

:

If that makes sense.

428

:

So it's,

429

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

something so much you hold it,

430

:

it's like you squeeze it so tightly

because you want it and you, and

431

:

The mistake that people make is they

want, they expect it in a certain way.

432

:

So they think, okay, this has got to

come through clients in my business, this

433

:

money or this thing that I really want,

and they hold it really, really tightly.

434

:

And that just pinches off the

energy that stops it coming.

435

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: yeah, yeah.

436

:

And, and also,

437

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

sorry, go

438

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754:

go, no, go on.

439

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

I was just going to say that the

440

:

important thing here, and this is

something I've learned that I've really.

441

:

has made a massive difference to me

is it's not so much the thing that

442

:

you want, whether it's money or a

physical thing, it's the feeling

443

:

that that thing's going to give you.

444

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754:

Yeah, the essence kind of thing.

445

:

Yeah.

446

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

say for example, um,

447

:

well, I'll give you a really good example.

448

:

I started playing the piano again after

a 30 year hiatus and I really wanted

449

:

a Piano, but I was living in a really

tiny house at the time had this got

450

:

myself, this is for first time manifested

this little electronic keyboard.

451

:

And then when I found my

dream home, guess what?

452

:

Had a piano and they said,

Oh, we don't want the piano.

453

:

Do you, you know, do you want it?

454

:

So I ended up with this

beautiful old piano.

455

:

So I manifested the keyboard

first and then the piano, but

456

:

actually it wasn't about the piano.

457

:

It was about how I feel

when I play the piano.

458

:

And it was about me putting myself

first and saying I love playing.

459

:

Why have I stopped doing something that

I, that brings me so much pleasure?

460

:

it's because I moved abroad and I

got married and I had kids and I had

461

:

a career and I put all these other

things first and put myself first.

462

:

back burner.

463

:

Of course, when the kids left home,

and I thought, right, no, it's

464

:

time for me, what, what do I really

enjoy in life that I'm not doing?

465

:

And I took up yoga, and the

piano was one of those things.

466

:

So manifesting the keyboard and

the piano wasn't about the keyboard

467

:

and the piano, it was about me.

468

:

It was about self love, I suppose, and me

putting myself first and thinking, what

469

:

do I really love and enjoy and want to do?

470

:

Do in my spare time and it

brings me so much happiness.

471

:

I play every day, and I'm doing

exams actually, and it just brings

472

:

me so much joy and happiness.

473

:

So if I wanted another piano now, I

would focus on that joy and happiness

474

:

that playing the piano brings me, rather

than the object of the piano itself.

475

:

So if you can take that concept,

you can apply that to anything.

476

:

So you want a certain amount of money,

why do you want that amount of money?

477

:

Is that, are you trying to

get out of survival mode?

478

:

it because you want your kids

to have more of something?

479

:

it that you really feel a bit stuck

in your life and you want to travel

480

:

and there's a fantastic retreat

in Mexico if only you had 10, 000?

481

:

And tapping into that feeling of

what's that thing going to give you?

482

:

How are you going to feel

when you have that thing?

483

:

And then here's the secret,

it's to find that feeling in

484

:

things that you already have.

485

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Hmm.

486

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

for me, again, using the piano

487

:

example, yes, You know, playing

the piano gives me so much joy.

488

:

And again, it's

intellectually stimulating.

489

:

I'm one of these people, I like

to challenge myself all the

490

:

time, otherwise I get bored.

491

:

I'm doing the exams because

I'm pushing myself to improve

492

:

and get better and better.

493

:

But so where else in my life

can I find that feeling of doing

494

:

something I really love and enjoy

and where I'm stretching myself?

495

:

Well, within my business.

496

:

Learning something new, learning new ways

to apply human design to marketing, new

497

:

ways to teach that, new ways to bring

clients in and support them with that.

498

:

So, again, for someone that's in a, in

a situation where they're worried about

499

:

money or they want things they don't

have, it's to find what's that feeling

500

:

behind it you're really trying to get to.

501

:

And then, Where can you find that today?

502

:

Like right now, listening to this podcast,

what's, where can you find that thing?

503

:

So I can guarantee you have

that feeling in your life.

504

:

You just don't, you're not seeing

it and you're not connecting

505

:

it to that thing that you want.

506

:

So I hope that's helpful.

507

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah,

that's really, really powerful.

508

:

And just an extension, because I

know I've seen this on social media

509

:

recently, this kind of a for and against

doing what you love as a business.

510

:

And I think what, what, what that is in

effect is either doing the bro stuff,

511

:

which is not necessarily what you love,

but you think it's going to get you money,

512

:

or really aligning and Doing what you

love and even if what you're doing, maybe

513

:

you're working for someone now and you're

not enjoying it, but to actually make

514

:

the choice that you are going to enjoy it

can actually attract in more of what you

515

:

really want and opportunities to move.

516

:

So yeah, I think that's quite, because

I've just, you know, I've been observing

517

:

the different discussions around that

and, um, You know, recognizing that you're

518

:

doing what you love, but it is still a

business as well, if that makes sense as

519

:

well, because sometimes it's quite easy

to do a hobby and it kind of, you treat

520

:

it like a hobby rather than a business.

521

:

What are your thoughts on, on that?

522

:

Yeah.

523

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

interesting, isn't it?

524

:

I've, I've seen both sides.

525

:

I'm, I'm a big proponent of the do what

you love and the money will come, but

526

:

I've, I have seen the discussion where.

527

:

People say, you know,

your business isn't you.

528

:

You've got to separate the two

things and energetically your

529

:

business is a separate entity to you.

530

:

And the plus side of that is that

traumas and blocks don't have to

531

:

affect your business if you treat

your business as a separate entity.

532

:

But I, I, yeah, I mean, at the

end of the day, I definitely think

533

:

you've got to enjoy what you do

because otherwise, otherwise.

534

:

would you spend your time doing

something that you don't enjoy,

535

:

that doesn't light you up?

536

:

And here, going into the human design,

if you are a sacral, so if you're a

537

:

manifesting generator with the sacral

authority, which means that, that

538

:

you're, that's your sort of decision

making motivation, it's really important

539

:

that you are lit up and excited and

energized about what you're doing,

540

:

because otherwise it just drains you and

that comes through in your marketing as

541

:

you're just see this a lot with people

on social media, people that are just

542

:

going through the motions and following

other people's strategies and they're

543

:

ticking the boxes and, okay, I've done

my one post today and now I'm going to

544

:

send, do a couple of comments and send

some messages, tick, tick, but they're

545

:

not really, there's no, the energy is not

great behind it and you can sense that.

546

:

So yeah, I think I'm definitely

in the do what you love camp.

547

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: I

think that takes us into AI as well,

548

:

where, you know, people are more,

549

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

thinking

550

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: yeah,

more people are using AI posts, and

551

:

as you say, there's no heart, there's

no energy in that, and that, for those

552

:

that are afraid that AI will take over,

I think that is the big difference.

553

:

difference, if you're willing to

put yourself in your posts and

554

:

take the time to show who you are

and put your energy behind it,

555

:

that's going to differentiate you.

556

:

And also understand, as you say,

the energy of your clients and,

557

:

and what you can solve that AI

might not even be able to identify

558

:

because it's at an energetic level.

559

:

Yeah, yeah.

560

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

and you need a robot to write for you?

561

:

What does that say about where you're

coming from and why you're in business?

562

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Absolutely.

563

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

most of us heart centered entrepreneurs,

564

:

vempreneurs, we're in business because we

want to make a difference, we want to make

565

:

an impact, we want to change the world.

566

:

Most of the people in my world very

heart centered and coming from a place

567

:

of genuinely wanting to serve people.

568

:

that has to come from the heart.

569

:

And I can't, for me, AI, I love AI.

570

:

I think it's a brilliant tool.

571

:

And I use it for lots of different things.

572

:

But if you're going to speak from

the heart, and that's how you

573

:

connect with clients, you can't

do that with an AI written post.

574

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: I,

I do have to say my experience in

575

:

helping heart-centered entrepreneurs,

especially spiritual entrepreneurs

576

:

who don't like to write, they would

rather use something like AI purely

577

:

because, um, they don't like to write.

578

:

And that's, that's been kind

of not a struggle, but, uh.

579

:

You know, getting, persuading them

to see the value in putting their

580

:

voice and writing it themselves.

581

:

And even if they use AI as an audio

tool, so they speak it and then

582

:

transcribe it, that that's coming from

them is much better than, um, getting

583

:

someone else to do it or using AI.

584

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

But if you don't like to write, then why

585

:

are you not doing videos or podcasts?

586

:

Because if you don't, people that

don't like to write, they tend to

587

:

be either like to speak or, you

know, there's lots of different

588

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yes.

589

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

can do social media.

590

:

You don't have to write.

591

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah.

592

:

Yeah.

593

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

So I would just say, do,

594

:

do what feels right to you.

595

:

And I used to have clients coming to

me saying, Oh, should I be blogging?

596

:

And I said, well, do you like blogging?

597

:

No, I hate it.

598

:

Well, don't do it then.

599

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah,

it wasn't so much blogging as

600

:

emails and, you know, short posts

around launches and stuff, so, yeah.

601

:

You know, to help to

602

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753: So.

603

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754:

accompany the video even, so.

604

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Yeah, do it in a way that you.

605

:

And I think that's the thing.

606

:

The minute someone says you should

be doing this, it kills your

607

:

energy and it kills your vibe.

608

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: yeah.

609

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

And it puts you in that place of

610

:

slightly treading on eggshells

of, Oh my gosh, I've got to do

611

:

something I really don't want to do.

612

:

And it just stifles people's creativity.

613

:

And that's why it's so important, I

think, to really tune into your highest

614

:

and work with your higher self because

your higher self will always guide you.

615

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah.

616

:

Yeah.

617

:

Yeah,

618

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

to do what comes up.

619

:

You know, you have to be prepared to

work with your higher self and a lot

620

:

of people will, they might be able to

tune in and get the guidance and that's

621

:

a, you know, that's a practice like

anything else, but they don't always

622

:

trust themselves to follow the guidance.

623

:

And I find actually a lot of the

clients I coach sort of fall into that

624

:

bracket where do the 3 3 3 process,

they're getting guided and then

625

:

thinking, Oh, well, I'm not sure if

that's, you know, if that's right.

626

:

it's sort of, so it's being bold

as well and trusting yourself.

627

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: that

trust and taking action on that trust.

628

:

Um.

629

:

Because sometimes your guide, yeah,

sometimes your guiding is, guidance

630

:

feels like it's way left field.

631

:

Like,

632

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Well, I mean, the fully booked Femme

633

:

Preneur Festival that I ran back

in March, that came from guidance.

634

:

And it's not something, if you'd asked

me a couple of weeks before whether I'd

635

:

run a, an online virtual summit with

all those hundreds of women, I would

636

:

have said, Oh no, that's not my thing.

637

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: you were, it,

638

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

guided to do it.

639

:

I had to do it.

640

:

And I did it.

641

:

And it was a huge success.

642

:

I'm thinking, well, thank

goodness I follow, you know, thank

643

:

goodness I bold enough to do it.

644

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: yeah, no,

it was amazing and how, how you managed

645

:

to organise everything so quickly

as well was really quite magical.

646

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

Because, because I was being guided.

647

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: Yeah, yeah,

648

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

to, if I tried to do it from my

649

:

logical human brain, it would have

been a massive amount of work.

650

:

I probably would have

ended up resenting it.

651

:

It would have, I would have

been messed around by people.

652

:

You know, none of that happened.

653

:

It was so, it was like a

hot knife through butter.

654

:

It was so easy and so fun.

655

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: yeah, yeah,

656

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

of working in alignment and try, you

657

:

know, as I say, working with your

higher self and being guided and

658

:

It's just doing what you feel, what

you're guided to do and trusting

659

:

that that's, that's the right thing.

660

:

Which I know is, it's easy to

say and it's, it's, I've been

661

:

doing this work for years.

662

:

It's not like I just started

yesterday and now I've got it all

663

:

figured out and it's still a work

in progress, but would definitely

664

:

encourage anyone that's listening

to this to that part of themselves.

665

:

And, um, I've got a free meditation

as well if anyone's interested called

666

:

Meet Your Inner Marketing Team.

667

:

And this is where you work

with your higher self, but also

668

:

certain guides that help you with

certain parts of your marketing.

669

:

So it's almost like having a, a

board of directors, but they're

670

:

all personalized for you and all,

all working with your higher self.

671

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: that's

brilliant, I think I could do with that.

672

:

Um, I'll get

673

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

link.

674

:

heather_2_08-07-2024_100754: I was

going to say, if you send me the

675

:

link to that and the 333, I can put

them in the show notes for anyone.

676

:

Um, it's been amazing chatting.

677

:

I could go on.

678

:

Um, we have covered a lot.

679

:

Is, is there anything that's coming up

for you that you'd like to, to share?

680

:

squadcaster-05if_2_08-07-2024_100753:

I don't think so.

681

:

I think we've covered so much, but I would

just say to people, please trust yourself.

682

:

Please feel strong enough in yourself

to know your own worth and value.

683

:

And as I say, work with

your higher self and

684

:

take the bold action because life's

amazing when you allow it to be.

685

:

But we just, we, we're Good at boxing

ourselves in and making ourselves and

686

:

actually just blow those walls away and

step out and be yourself and enjoy life

687

:

and enjoy business and have fun with it.

688

Profile picture for Heather Masters

Heather Masters

After struggling to feel comfortable in my own skin for years, and after living through many life and career/business changes, I finally discovered something that helped me get comfortable with the unknown and discover what it was I truly wanted, and to connect with that heartfelt knowing I hadn't been able to get clarity on. I have turned that into a system that helps techies, Entrepreneurs and online creatives (Artists, writers, techies and digital creators) overcome their blocks so they can step into who they really are, tap into their Creative genius and confidently show up in their lives like never before.

When you are tired of being tired...
My mission is to help you step out of old destructive patterns and beliefs that limit you and free you up to create the intuitively guided business and life that empowers and ignites you.

Create A Future Distinct From The Past.

And for those Awakened Entrepreneurs and Business owners, navigating a challenging and vastly changing world landscape, I have created the Online Success Academy, and focused one to one coaching programs, that help you traverse the chaos and take advantage of the new and exciting opportunities presenting themselves.
