00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.000
Hey. How are you? I'm doing good. How are you? Good. Good. Where are you headed? I'm

2
00:00:07.000 --> 00:00:16.000
headed to Greensboro, North Carolina, and I'm actually, sorry, let me put this, oh,

3
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:28.000
I think I have to type it in. I got a new address. I'm going to, just a second. Well,

4
00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:38.000
I don't know. Now, if I want to go there first. No, I don't. Sorry. I thought I had a new

5
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:43.000
address that I needed to go to instead of the one I was calling to, but we'll just stick

6
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:51.000
with this one. So, sorry about that. That's okay. That's it. Such an interesting day today.

7
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:57.000
I just got off the call with one client. Now, I'm on a demo with you. I will, as soon as

8
00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:08.000
I get off with you, I will check into my hotel, leave my little dog there, then go to a pastor

9
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:15.000
friend's house. They're making supper for me, but before we eat supper, they're going

10
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:23.000
to set me up someplace in their house from which I'm going to do the, I'm in Natalie's,

11
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:28.000
I'm a guest trainer at Natalie's workshop tonight. You know, Natalie, the member of

12
00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:33.000
the rest intensive. So, anyway, and then after I get off that workshop, which I don't know

13
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:42.000
if that's going to end at 6.30 or 7, then we're going to eat. It's a wild day. So, how

14
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:53.000
are you? I'm good. Yeah. Yeah. It was a good weekend. I'm feeling good. Yeah. Good. Good.

15
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:59.000
So, what's going on? Well, I wanted to talk to you more about what we started talking

16
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:07.000
about on the Thursday night call about, like, how do, you know how you were talking about

17
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:13.000
using, like, the open-ended questions and empowering them to enroll themselves and everything.

18
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:22.000
I've really been working on my money mindset and trying to, like, I'm really struggling,

19
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:28.000
like, I have been struggling with how to charge, you know, a certain monthly amount that would

20
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:36.000
be, you know, totally worth it for what they get, but I want to serve everybody. So, I'm

21
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:40.000
having a hard time not almost going the route you're going, where I'm like, just pay what

22
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:45.000
you can, you know. Here's the minimum, but pay what you can. And I love that idea, but

23
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:53.000
at the same time, I know it's not super, I don't know, I think that kind of messes with

24
00:02:53.000 --> 00:03:00.000
my head a bit, because I see you doing it that way. And I think, am I, I'm struggling

25
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:07.000
between I should charge money, because, you know, that's part of me getting paid for the

26
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:13.000
business, and separating that out from my ministry, versus making my business my ministry

27
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:20.000
and just saying, you know what, people can pay whatever they want, because then, I don't

28
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:28.000
know, then they can afford it, and then they get what they need to get. So, I'm really,

29
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:33.000
I think I'm struggling with that, because I almost look at you as being able to do it

30
00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:39.000
from this place of rest, this place of God's my protection and my provision, and then I

31
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:45.000
look at me, and I'm like, is my only way of, and you're going to say no, but I'm like,

32
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:50.000
or maybe is the best way of living in that space of believing God for my protection and

33
00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:58.000
provision, saying that people can pay whatever they want. And if I'm asking for, you know,

34
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:05.000
hundreds of dollars a month for the program, am I focusing too much on money? Am I worshipping

35
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:09.000
money? Or, like, I'm really kind of struggling with that.

36
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:16.000
Yeah, well, yeah, that makes sense. And you always ask really big questions, a lot of

37
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:21.000
really insightful ones. I mean, ones that are, like, at the root of things. So, in other

38
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:28.000
words, that you boldly face them, and boldly face them for yourself, and then ask them.

39
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:33.000
And then other people are just too afraid to go there, so they don't even articulate

40
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:40.000
it for themselves, let alone actually voice it to someone else. So, first of all, know

41
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:46.000
that this is not something that I used to train people how to do, you know, the way

42
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:55.000
that I used to, my price structure. And my business coach, my business coach did not

43
00:04:55.000 --> 00:05:00.000
coach me into doing what it is that I'm doing. She was coaching me.

44
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:10.000
to charge very high tickets, which I did for a while, and I got people in it.

45
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:18.000
But there was something that wasn't quite settling with me, and it was because God had something different for me.

46
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:23.000
In other words, it's all Spirit-led. So, what is it? Remember what Paul says.

47
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:30.000
He says, everything is permissible, but not everything is ratified. In other words, it's all about the Source.

48
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:36.000
It doesn't matter what we do, what matters is where it is that we're coming at it from.

49
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:40.000
Do we feel that we're in fear, and that's why we're making the decision?

50
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:48.000
Or do we understand, not just understand, but we've actually positioned our heart, our intention,

51
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:54.000
we've risked our very lives, like internally, emotionally, our souls,

52
00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:02.000
we've risked our very essence to do this, but we are on God, and believe that He's going to protect and provide for us,

53
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:05.000
and then we make our decisions from that place.

54
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:12.000
So, people can make the exact same decision, but be coming at it from two different places.

55
00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:23.000
So, if God wants you to do what it is that you're doing, like say, for instance, charge $4,000, like I used to.

56
00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:32.000
Charge $4,000, but you're coming at it from the tree, feeling like, oh my goodness, I'm scared, I feel like I need $4,000.

57
00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:41.000
Well, then you believe that $4,000 or that charging money is your source, and that's how you're going to be provided for,

58
00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:45.000
then that's operating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

59
00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:50.000
Not charging $4,000, it's all a heart issue, it's all the attitude.

60
00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:56.000
As opposed to God's being like, no, I really did want you to charge $4,000, but I want you to do it out of relationship,

61
00:06:56.000 --> 00:07:03.000
knowing that I will bring clients that can pay $4,000, and then the clients that can't pay $4,000,

62
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:06.000
those, by the way, are the clients I don't want you to take.

63
00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:10.000
So, it's all attitude and a heart, so you don't have to worry about...

64
00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:14.000
My point in saying all of that is it always comes back to the source,

65
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:20.000
and we don't ever have to worry about the actions as being a good or bad thing,

66
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:24.000
which I know you're not, because you talked about the fact that, well, no, I understand it's the attitude.

67
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:28.000
I just wanted to mention that, though, before I went on to the next thing,

68
00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:32.000
and that is the fact that because what I said is true,

69
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:37.000
it's important that we put our own oxygen mask on first and understand that,

70
00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:42.000
okay, in order for me to be able to know what I should charge,

71
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:45.000
should it be $4,000, should it be $200, I don't know.

72
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:51.000
We have to go, we have to stop looking at money,

73
00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:58.000
and we have to start looking at and start risking our, by money I mean like,

74
00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:03.000
well, we have money in our position, a specific dollar amount or whatever,

75
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:06.000
and say, okay, God, this goes further back than the money.

76
00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:09.000
This goes further back than the business.

77
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:13.000
This goes to the fact that I don't feel like, I feel like you're always,

78
00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:17.000
that you're looking at me, expecting me to make something worse,

79
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:22.000
or you are, you gave me a talent, and I'm not,

80
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:26.000
and I'm trying to make sure you use it, or you gave me a story that's got to be heard,

81
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:28.000
or you gave me whatever.

82
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:36.000
We've got to go all the way back to that, and if you choose to release yourself,

83
00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:38.000
it all goes down to release.

84
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:43.000
So part of the struggle here is, you know, like, oh, well, I don't know about this,

85
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:45.000
and I fear that it's this.

86
00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:49.000
It's all of this struggle, and that kind of a struggle is resistance.

87
00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:51.000
So we have to start struggling.

88
00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:54.000
We have to stop resisting.

89
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.000
As soon as we just let it go, clarity comes.

90
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:00.000
We shift into rest.

91
00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:02.000
You know, we intentionally choose that.

92
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:03.000
God's our guide.

93
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:04.000
We shift into rest first.

94
00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:11.000
Then you'll get your answer instead of just trying to figure out the answer.

95
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:20.000
It's letting, it's even letting go your ownership of the fact that you have to have an answer.

96
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:24.000
I mean, because that's what our resistance does.

97
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:32.000
And so as soon as I started, when I was questioning the Lord about what I should charge,

98
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:34.000
I was struggling so much.

99
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:37.000
I said, Lord, I just want to do your will.

100
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:39.000
Do you want $4,000, or do you want $200?

101
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:40.000
I mean, I don't know.

102
00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:41.000
I'll do anything you want.

103
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:42.000
Just tell me.

104
00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:45.000
And the longer that I pushed, and I strained, and I struggled,

105
00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:49.000
the more elusive that the dadgum answer got.

106
00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:58.000
And so finally I had to release my ownership of the fact that I had to have an answer from him.

107
00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:00.000
I stopped holding him accountable.

108
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:12.000
for giving me an answer and just let him be who he was and just enjoy him and I'm like hey Laurie, I'm yours and I had to intentionally choose that.

109
00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:20.000
Intentionally choosing to rest in you, intentionally choosing that I enjoy you for who it is that you are, I seek you for who it is that you are.

110
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:24.000
And then from that place I no longer felt afraid.

111
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:30.000
I shifted into rest because I no longer felt like I had to provide for myself with money, business or whatever.

112
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:34.000
I no longer felt God, you know, was ahead of me.

113
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:37.000
I was just enjoying him. I was releasing everything.

114
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:41.000
And God's like okay, now that you've released yourself to me, here's your answer.

115
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:44.000
Here's how much I want you to charge.

116
00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:46.000
Here's the exact dollar amount.

117
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:50.000
And then you'll know in your spirit, here's why.

118
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:52.000
Does that make sense?

119
00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:55.000
So it's actually the opposite of what we think.

120
00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:59.000
We think we'll get an answer by pressing in harder and harder and harder and it's the opposite.

121
00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:01.000
We let it go.

122
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:04.000
Because that's where some of our fear is manifesting.

123
00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:15.000
Is our straining after it and our desperateness and our aggravation and struggle that we can't, that the answer's elusive.

124
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:24.000
Even when we make it sound godly and we're like oh, I'm just working on myself and I know that the problem's me and I'm trying to figure me out.

125
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:30.000
Even that is, we're still straining and struggling and striving.

126
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:33.000
It goes pretty deep.

127
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:34.000
No, it does.

128
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:41.000
I'm just wondering, I don't know if, do you have like earbuds in or I'm getting like a lot of background noise so it's really hard to hear.

129
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:43.000
I don't know if it's possible.

130
00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:47.000
Or like is a window open or something?

131
00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:49.000
No.

132
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:57.000
Oh.

133
00:11:57.000 --> 00:11:59.000
Is that better or not?

134
00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:00.000
I think so.

135
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:02.000
What did you do?

136
00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:13.000
I turned the, I just now realized the microphone is right over the air vent so I tried to turn the air vent off.

137
00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:15.000
Is that worse or not?

138
00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:17.000
That's a bit better, yeah.

139
00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:20.000
We'll stick with that for a bit and see how it works.

140
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:23.000
I just don't want to miss, I don't want to miss what you're saying.

141
00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:24.000
I know.

142
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:28.000
Well, I tried to find my earbuds too before we got on the call.

143
00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:32.000
I don't know where I have them.

144
00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:34.000
So I'll try to look for them.

145
00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:37.000
So did you hear what I said or?

146
00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:38.000
Yeah.

147
00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:39.000
Yeah.

148
00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:40.000
So, yeah, totally.

149
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.000
I did kind of make it out.

150
00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:48.000
Okay.

151
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:54.000
So, so where I'm, what I'm like thinking when you're talking is that.

152
00:12:54.000 --> 00:13:00.000
I created this whole program out of a place of.

153
00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:02.000
My own healing and what God,

154
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:11.000
the journey he took me through and everything. So.

155
00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:16.000
When it comes to charging more money.

156
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:23.000
I, I feel guilty because I want to serve everybody.

157
00:13:23.000 --> 00:13:26.000
And I don't need the money.

158
00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:32.000
Like, we've, we've got enough to make do we can.

159
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:36.000
Yeah.

160
00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:41.000
I'm not, I'm not in lack. I've always had enough money. I've never.

161
00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:48.000
Ben necessarily in the overflow, but I've always had enough.

162
00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:51.000
And so I'm like, okay, God's blessed me with enough.

163
00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:53.000
So I want to bless other people who need it.

164
00:13:53.000 --> 00:13:57.000
And so it's more of a.

165
00:13:58.000 --> 00:13:59.000
Yeah.

166
00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:00.000
Yeah.

167
00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:01.000
Yeah.

168
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:02.000
Yeah.

169
00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:03.000
Yeah.

170
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:04.000
Yeah.

171
00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:05.000
Yeah.

172
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:06.000
Yeah.

173
00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:07.000
Yeah.

174
00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:08.000
Yeah.

175
00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:09.000
Yeah.

176
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:10.000
Yeah.

177
00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:18.000
But like, I know.

178
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:19.000
My mission,

179
00:14:19.000 --> 00:14:22.000
my mission field could be separate from my business.

180
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:24.000
Like my business could be my business.

181
00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:29.000
I could have my tithes and offerings and giving.

182
00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:30.000
Going to a different place. Like, I,

183
00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:34.000
I almost need to disassociate the two.

184
00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:36.000
Because I'm making them one in the same.

185
00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:39.000
I'm making my business the same as where I give my tithes and

186
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:40.000
offerings.

187
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:42.000
Which.

188
00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:46.000
Oh, wait, wait, where you give it.

189
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:49.000
Well, so it's like.

190
00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:51.000
I don't know how to explain it, but it's kind of like,

191
00:14:51.000 --> 00:14:54.000
It's like I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm.

192
00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:56.000
I'm giving money and tithes and offerings.

193
00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:58.000
To my business.

194
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:00.000
When I'm giving people discounts.

195
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:04.740
field using it as the way I give back instead of looking at it as if I make

196
00:15:04.740 --> 00:15:10.340
more money I can give 10% to my church as usual and then I can give money

197
00:15:10.340 --> 00:15:16.220
elsewhere as well or gifts elsewhere as well it might you know what I mean so

198
00:15:16.220 --> 00:15:21.620
I'm I'm kind of like wondering if it's a problem of me not separating out the two

199
00:15:21.620 --> 00:15:27.300
and making my business my business and making that a place where I derive

200
00:15:27.300 --> 00:15:35.840
income and then making my tithes offerings giving all of that separate

201
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:40.800
in a place of you know not associated with my business necessarily you know

202
00:15:40.800 --> 00:15:45.180
what I mean but because I look at my business as my mission field as the

203
00:15:45.180 --> 00:15:53.840
place where God wants me to give back I'm not I'm not like disassociating the

204
00:15:53.840 --> 00:16:19.100
two okay can you hear me oh that's much better yeah my air conditioner has been

205
00:16:19.100 --> 00:16:25.000
going and I've been acting like it's going in and out and so I've had to

206
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:30.680
speak to it today and then it'll get cool and then I'll decide to go out

207
00:16:30.680 --> 00:16:39.680
again I'll speak to it again I love it I'm practicing so speaking to creation

208
00:16:39.680 --> 00:16:43.800
having dominion remember that Amy was doing that you know she was talking to

209
00:16:43.800 --> 00:16:47.840
oh I don't know if you joined the rest of the time she was yeah she was yeah

210
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:53.060
she was talking about talking to her okay so so glad that this works and

211
00:16:53.060 --> 00:16:57.560
that's good to know that this is better I have an air have air pods but we're

212
00:16:57.560 --> 00:17:10.099
not currently charged okay so sorry the last thing that you said it's kind of

213
00:17:10.099 --> 00:17:16.180
like I'm I'm trying to disassociate my business from my tithes and offerings

214
00:17:16.180 --> 00:17:22.440
because I'm associating that yes okay well for one thing remember that we

215
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:29.480
don't have to worry about separating things like our business from you know

216
00:17:29.480 --> 00:17:35.200
from our ministry from our whatever because to God it's all one in the same

217
00:17:35.200 --> 00:17:38.960
it's our spirit flowing into the earth and it just flows into the earth in

218
00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:42.320
different ways flows through business flows through marriage flows through

219
00:17:42.320 --> 00:17:47.300
finance flows to ministry whatever so honestly it always really bothers me

220
00:17:47.300 --> 00:17:50.980
when people talk about ministry as being something different I'm not saying that

221
00:17:50.980 --> 00:17:56.580
bad it's just that our association with the idea of ministry is that it's like

222
00:17:56.580 --> 00:18:00.100
this separate spiritual thing and everything else is unspiritual I'm not

223
00:18:00.100 --> 00:18:03.260
saying that's what you're saying I'm just I'm just walking you through my

224
00:18:03.260 --> 00:18:10.100
mental process at this oh I think that sorry let me check that feed here okay

225
00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:16.960
didn't want to be speeding so okay so I'm good

226
00:18:18.600 --> 00:18:25.080
now it wants me to go somewhere let me see where I'm supposed to go okay well

227
00:18:25.080 --> 00:18:30.400
I know just just to address what you just said like it's not that I look at

228
00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:34.200
it as bad like I've always wanted to associate my business with my ministry

229
00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:39.600
problem I'm having the problem I'm having is that I'm struggling to charge

230
00:18:39.600 --> 00:18:42.620
money for it because I think it should be my mission field and I should not be

231
00:18:42.620 --> 00:18:51.060
making money at it yes yes okay yes so here's here's the thing though that

232
00:18:51.060 --> 00:18:58.580
that's kind of my point is if there's if there's no separation then there

233
00:18:58.580 --> 00:19:03.540
should be no concern of like well I do this type of thing with money in

234
00:19:03.540 --> 00:19:08.300
ministry but I don't do this type of thing with money in business it's one in

235
00:19:08.300 --> 00:19:12.400
the same so you can do the same thing with minute it was money that you in

236
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:16.160
ministry that you can in business because there's no difference ministry

237
00:19:16.160 --> 00:19:22.440
is the way in which we operate in life where our spirit flows out of us so that

238
00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:28.240
business is not secular business is God given and you can run your business

239
00:19:28.240 --> 00:19:35.240
however you want you can do your you can do your or you can do discounts in your

240
00:19:35.240 --> 00:19:39.980
business to give people I mean even secular people even non-christians I do

241
00:19:39.980 --> 00:19:43.300
that with their business they give charity they get a discount they do

242
00:19:43.300 --> 00:19:47.060
whatever they want especially for small mom-and-pop places they do give away all

243
00:19:47.060 --> 00:19:50.620
kinds of stuff for free you know free services free whatever and we're talking

244
00:19:50.620 --> 00:19:57.860
big like full-on hey you know sir it's this $500 charge is completely on us you

245
00:19:57.860 --> 00:20:01.740
know I mean they do stuff like that so

246
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:08.000
And my point is that you don't have to have to worry that, that it has to be different.

247
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:16.000
And, and I know that you want to just please that you want to please the Lord but that's, that's my point is it.

248
00:20:17.000 --> 00:20:29.000
It's much deeper than money, it's going all the way back to is the Lord, is the Lord pleased with me with how it is that I am.

249
00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:45.000
And therefore, together, because it's pleased me because we operate in life together. This is how we want to charge, as opposed to God what do you want me to do for me to charge like this or not charge like this because this is good, this is bad.

250
00:20:46.000 --> 00:20:49.000
Trying to figure out how to say.

251
00:20:49.000 --> 00:21:02.000
So, you can, you can get discounts you can get stuff for free the first people that join the rest intensive. God told me give it to all of them for free. The first five people.

252
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:05.000
Those are the, those are the people in April.

253
00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:10.000
And, and so, so I did.

254
00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:29.000
And, and anyway, and so, and I had no idea about after that how it's going to price structure everything all I knew is I said hey, give it free to all of these people like, Okay, then Lord, I'm, I'm choosing therefore that you will then provide

255
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:44.000
financially, because you told me to give it to all these people for free and so I'm choosing that you're my provision, not my business. So therefore I will do whatever in my business that you told me to do because that's just me living.

256
00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:59.000
It's not me ministering, it's not me doing something spiritual. It's me and you operating together in life, and we do that, whether I'm going to the grocery store, or whether I'm in business with that.

257
00:21:59.000 --> 00:22:02.000
Am I answering your question.

258
00:22:02.000 --> 00:22:04.000
Um, you're asking.

259
00:22:04.000 --> 00:22:12.000
I think, I think my main question is, how can I justify charging hundreds of dollars a month for my program.

260
00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:16.000
Like, yeah, I can't, because right now.

261
00:22:16.000 --> 00:22:29.000
Like when when you're telling me this stuff about how you do it this is what's this is what's kind of messing with me a little bit is that part of me feels like I should do it the way you do it and the other part of me wants to quit my full time job as a teacher,

262
00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:37.000
and I just want to do this and make money at this because I love it and I want to be able to do it full time so.

263
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:42.000
And I can't do that if I'm not making the money so but I can't justify charging.

264
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:50.000
So we can't do that money's the provision.

265
00:22:50.000 --> 00:23:00.000
Does that make sense. It's like, well, I can't. Okay, so, you know, thought I can't quit my job and do what I want to do because I have to make money in order to be able to do that.

266
00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:04.000
The money is the provision in God's like no on the provision.

267
00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:11.000
It's that it's that it's that foundational it's that mind blowing, it's that different.

268
00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:28.000
But I get that but so I don't know if like we're connecting properly on this because I feel like I'm trying to understand how I can actually justify charging money for my program because I want to be able to quit my job so.

269
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:40.000
So, can we talk about it that way like how, how would I be able to actually say it's okay for me to charge hundreds of dollars, like, I want to quit my job.

270
00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:54.000
If I don't, if I don't make money like I'm a I make good money teaching if I worked full time I'd make six figures, and that provides it like the income for our house to function for my husband for our daughter like.

271
00:23:55.000 --> 00:24:08.000
And you know what I could go quit my job but my husband's going to be very angry with me. And I like I could quit my job but I'd have to make money somewhere because the money pays for things.

272
00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:24.000
So, I'm trying to figure out how I can justify charging money because I think I should be not from a place of somebody else saying it but I believe that I should be compensated for my time.

273
00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:36.000
And, you know, I pour I'm going to be pouring a ton into these people so I do think it's important that I'm compensated, but yet I keep swaying toward.

274
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:52.000
I should just do what you do and like people can pay whatever they want but if people do that, they're like it's not gonna, it's not going to have the same result of me like wanting to quit my job because I'm able to bring in the income somewhere

275
00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:57.000
So, like I don't want to be teaching anymore I want to do this full time.

276
00:24:57.000 --> 00:25:00.000
But yet, I can't justify making money on it so this is where I'm

277
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:03.800
struggling, like, I don't really know how to make sense of it.

278
00:25:03.800 --> 00:25:08.240
And then, I think, I don't, I don't know if I quite understand

279
00:25:08.240 --> 00:25:13.420
exactly how you're explaining it, like, how, how can I justify

280
00:25:13.440 --> 00:25:14.640
charging money for it?

281
00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:25.280
Um, okay, so, um, let's go. Okay, let's come at it from a

282
00:25:25.280 --> 00:25:29.040
different, let's come at it from a different, let's just, um,

283
00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:40.520
when, so, your, so, money with, who was I talking to about this?

284
00:25:40.520 --> 00:25:42.960
I'm trying to remember, so it could help remind me of our

285
00:25:42.960 --> 00:25:49.640
conversation. But the, the, your, maybe it was Lori, maybe

286
00:25:49.640 --> 00:25:55.760
it was on that call, the community call, that, that your

287
00:25:55.920 --> 00:26:00.240
money, the money that you're charging is, or so to speak, the

288
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:05.480
money that they're paying is not in exchange, necessarily from

289
00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:10.360
rest. I'm not talking about from, from the world system,

290
00:26:10.360 --> 00:26:14.280
because I don't teach that way anymore. It's rest intensive. So

291
00:26:14.600 --> 00:26:17.240
that's why this is the answer you're going to get. If you want

292
00:26:17.240 --> 00:26:20.360
a different answer, it goes around, because the other

293
00:26:20.360 --> 00:26:23.960
answer is not wrong. I just don't teach that, that. But

294
00:26:24.440 --> 00:26:28.720
okay, so let me, let me tell you how I used to teach. You used to

295
00:26:28.720 --> 00:26:33.160
teach, again, not from the tree of the knowledge of good and

296
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:36.720
evil. You can do that. And that's perfectly, that's

297
00:26:36.720 --> 00:26:42.000
perfectly fine. If that is what I used to do, that is under from

298
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:46.640
the perspective that, okay, I have to have the money. So

299
00:26:46.640 --> 00:26:51.400
therefore, if I'm going to put in this amount of time and this

300
00:26:51.400 --> 00:26:55.280
amount of effort, I need this amount in return, if you're

301
00:26:55.280 --> 00:27:00.840
looking for an X, an equal exchange, then what you to what

302
00:27:00.840 --> 00:27:05.720
you traditionally do is and this is what I used to train on, then

303
00:27:05.720 --> 00:27:10.280
what you do is you figure out, okay, what, what amount of

304
00:27:10.280 --> 00:27:14.640
money would equal that amount of time, effort, energy that you're

305
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:19.760
going to pour in? What would help in the eye in the mind of

306
00:27:19.760 --> 00:27:34.520
the customer create a sense of the value that they would be

307
00:27:34.520 --> 00:27:37.320
receiving? And I don't mean necessarily the value and

308
00:27:37.320 --> 00:27:40.720
actually what you put in, it's the value of the church. Is that

309
00:27:40.720 --> 00:27:45.600
change to that? Is that a 4000? Is it is is that how much their

310
00:27:45.600 --> 00:27:50.040
life will change? Is it worth $4,000? Is it worth whatever?

311
00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:53.360
And typically, what you do is something like this, like trauma

312
00:27:53.360 --> 00:27:56.880
or whatever you think, okay, it's worth this amount of money

313
00:27:56.920 --> 00:27:59.560
or say it's priceless, but whatever, like say it's worth

314
00:27:59.560 --> 00:28:04.720
$10,000. Normally, what you would do is if it's worth 10,000,

315
00:28:05.040 --> 00:28:23.240
you charge a formula for it would be you charge 1000. Some

316
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:27.960
people go by the rule of thumb that you charge a 10th of the

317
00:28:27.960 --> 00:28:31.400
value that they will receive out of it, but understand that that

318
00:28:31.400 --> 00:28:39.480
is going at it from an exchange. This is this is what

319
00:28:39.600 --> 00:28:48.120
they're, they are paying for something they are getting. So

320
00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:53.280
if you're wanting that answer, there's that answer. But from

321
00:28:53.280 --> 00:28:55.040
rest, it's from

322
00:29:05.320 --> 00:29:08.720
this is how I'm interacting with her that that person is coming

323
00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:12.640
into is something that they do in order to to determine it that

324
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:16.800
they give in order to identify for themselves how much that

325
00:29:16.800 --> 00:29:20.840
thing is going to mean to them. So I suppose either way, it kind

326
00:29:20.840 --> 00:29:25.560
of works out. It sounds the same, but it's different. You're

327
00:29:25.560 --> 00:29:28.840
coming at it from a different source. One is spirit. But

328
00:29:29.600 --> 00:29:34.880
anyway, it goes back to the client, not not you. It's not.

329
00:29:35.280 --> 00:29:38.160
So therefore, everything is on the client, you don't have to

330
00:29:38.160 --> 00:29:45.040
feel the burden of I feel bad, charging for someone else's

331
00:29:45.040 --> 00:29:48.880
healing, charging them for something that they should have

332
00:29:48.880 --> 00:29:53.920
a right to, as the Son of God charging them to allow them to

333
00:29:54.080 --> 00:29:58.920
giving them an opportunity to heal from an abuse that they

334
00:29:58.920 --> 00:29:59.400
receive.

335
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:06.340
See that just doesn't feel right. No, the money is then putting not skin in the game

336
00:30:06.340 --> 00:30:10.920
But money from again from a place of rest is the client's way at first

337
00:30:11.080 --> 00:30:19.080
Choosing to step out and take action on there on making their own shift because you can't shift them it if they can't shift

338
00:30:19.080 --> 00:30:22.360
In that way, then they're not going to be able to do the other stuff

339
00:30:22.360 --> 00:30:25.960
Which is what I talked about because the money is the easier thing

340
00:30:26.440 --> 00:30:29.340
Because it's easier to do money than it is to face

341
00:30:29.520 --> 00:30:34.400
Oneself and to do what one has to do and to change myself and all of that because they have to face their emotions

342
00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:35.800
and

343
00:30:35.800 --> 00:30:41.440
So which is what we talked about on the call and is so what are your thoughts so far?

344
00:30:43.080 --> 00:30:46.440
Yeah, no, this is great this I feel like we're on the same page now

345
00:30:47.640 --> 00:30:49.680
Yeah, no, I feel I apologize

346
00:30:49.680 --> 00:30:54.280
I just kind of felt like I felt like what I was thinking and I think what maybe I was

347
00:30:54.640 --> 00:30:58.920
Communicating wasn't coming across in the way that I meant for it, too. So I apologize

348
00:30:59.760 --> 00:31:01.680
Yeah, so basically

349
00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:02.840
then

350
00:31:02.840 --> 00:31:08.000
If we were to take the so I know you're not gonna say anything's right or wrong

351
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:13.080
But would you agree with the statement like if I'm truly living in the spirit and truly living at rest?

352
00:31:13.080 --> 00:31:16.240
I would let people decide what they're going to invest

353
00:31:16.880 --> 00:31:21.920
No, because that it's all your source. You can do whatever you want

354
00:31:21.920 --> 00:31:27.520
Like for instance for instance the conference that I'm going to I am going with a friend

355
00:31:27.680 --> 00:31:31.520
Who doesn't charge for any of his conferences?

356
00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:34.240
but

357
00:31:34.640 --> 00:31:38.840
The guy who's going to be speaking at the conference is

358
00:31:39.280 --> 00:31:44.560
one of his best friends and he charges a lot for his conferences and

359
00:31:45.040 --> 00:31:49.760
Even my and my friend will stand up for his friends and say hey look

360
00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:52.200
You know, everyone is

361
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:58.800
responsible with with how as a king of God for how he

362
00:31:59.240 --> 00:32:04.120
rules and how he has dominion and how he manifests heaven into earth and

363
00:32:04.640 --> 00:32:08.200
He said it's there's nothing wrong

364
00:32:08.760 --> 00:32:11.320
With charging money money isn't bad

365
00:32:11.840 --> 00:32:15.040
We've been made by the world

366
00:32:15.760 --> 00:32:23.600
Bill and I's money and made it like this thing that provides form protects that kind of like if it's like a

367
00:32:24.000 --> 00:32:29.480
Loaf of bread in front of a hungry child and that take in that charging money is

368
00:32:30.280 --> 00:32:34.760
The equivalent of taking the bread away from somebody who's who's?

369
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:37.760
Hungry and has no way of feeding themselves

370
00:32:38.040 --> 00:32:44.200
Otherwise and you just took away their means of feeding themselves that mean it's abusive and that is not true

371
00:32:44.640 --> 00:32:47.520
People do not have to but for instance

372
00:32:48.080 --> 00:32:49.800
You are

373
00:32:49.800 --> 00:32:51.800
Not how do I put?

374
00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:54.000
right word that

375
00:32:54.320 --> 00:32:56.320
God will

376
00:32:56.440 --> 00:32:59.480
Heal someone and work with him

377
00:33:00.360 --> 00:33:02.040
and

378
00:33:02.040 --> 00:33:04.040
With or without

379
00:33:04.280 --> 00:33:09.240
You will God will not allow you and how much you charge

380
00:33:10.120 --> 00:33:11.360
to

381
00:33:11.360 --> 00:33:14.520
Keep someone from receiving their healing

382
00:33:15.600 --> 00:33:19.480
Even with working with you who's going to be the biggest

383
00:33:20.240 --> 00:33:26.640
Obstacle to their healing. It's the same obstacle that they're dealing with before they hire you and that's them

384
00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:29.200
You are not in their way

385
00:33:29.480 --> 00:33:34.080
Your money and how much you charge is not in their way

386
00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:37.400
They are in their way and

387
00:33:38.040 --> 00:33:40.520
And so it however

388
00:33:41.760 --> 00:33:43.360
They God

389
00:33:43.360 --> 00:33:48.440
prompts you to accept someone and to lower the price or give them a discount and you don't

390
00:33:48.680 --> 00:33:56.520
Well at the end, you know, that's between you Lord, but I'm not but I would admit that usually people who are very

391
00:33:57.040 --> 00:33:58.920
very

392
00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:03.120
Sensitive to this spirit are not likely to miss the Lord like

393
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:08.000
It's because their relationship with the Lord is such that they're very

394
00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:15.239
That they're that they're that they recognize it really quickly. Oh, by the way, I apologize. Am I talking too loud?

395
00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:17.960
No, of course. No, no

396
00:34:18.639 --> 00:34:23.800
I don't talk this forcefully, you know, but I'm in a car where it's very loud and

397
00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:27.040
Let me

398
00:34:27.040 --> 00:34:32.400
Loud and I'm always thinking that people can't hear me. So in the car, I think that my a

399
00:34:33.159 --> 00:34:34.719
fight

400
00:34:34.719 --> 00:34:36.480
personality that

401
00:34:37.480 --> 00:34:39.480
Had to like deal with

402
00:34:41.360 --> 00:34:46.080
That had to deal with a very strong man in corporate situations

403
00:34:46.560 --> 00:34:51.239
It's down. It can I have to put that voice on and I'm not meaning to I promise

404
00:34:51.239 --> 00:34:56.960
I really do promise my attitude my heart, you know my attitude my heart. I'm just trying to talk over my car

405
00:34:57.240 --> 00:35:00.040
No, it's a you're perfect. I can always I can

406
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:05.760
always turn you down if I need to but I haven't needed to and you know and I want to I just want

407
00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:12.960
to touch on something for a second so before when I was asking you about like help me understand how

408
00:35:12.960 --> 00:35:19.920
I can justify actually charging because yeah I can justify and justify and justify charging nothing

409
00:35:19.920 --> 00:35:26.480
I can justify charging whatever they can pay like all of that I can understand I can justify that

410
00:35:26.480 --> 00:35:32.480
because I get it and it makes sense and so I'm looking at like the pendulum swinging because

411
00:35:32.480 --> 00:35:38.640
what I don't have is enough evidence for the other side to be able to kind of make sense of it myself

412
00:35:38.640 --> 00:35:43.600
like I've prayed about it I've asked God I don't know what the answer is so I'm like okay if I

413
00:35:43.600 --> 00:35:51.600
understand why it's okay to charge money and then mixed with my feeling that I shouldn't charge

414
00:35:51.600 --> 00:35:56.560
anything or just a little bit then I'll feel like a little bit more balanced you know what I mean

415
00:35:57.840 --> 00:36:02.160
okay so I'm sorry you said you you're not understanding the other side what's the other

416
00:36:02.160 --> 00:36:07.840
side yeah no no no I am now more like you've been talking I just mean from before like that's what

417
00:36:07.840 --> 00:36:14.640
I was kind of getting at when okay um but what you're saying to me right now is helping me with

418
00:36:14.640 --> 00:36:21.200
the other side so that I can kind of just be able to discern better because I feel like right now

419
00:36:21.200 --> 00:36:27.280
my own programming is getting in the way of like my own thinking is getting in the way of what God's

420
00:36:27.280 --> 00:36:35.840
trying to say oh yeah yes yeah well it yeah it it always is I mean that's always the case that's why

421
00:36:35.840 --> 00:36:42.320
I always talk about we have to put on our own oxygen masks first it's always our beliefs from

422
00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:49.600
which we frame our worlds our actions how we hear God if we believe we can't hear God you know whether

423
00:36:49.600 --> 00:36:57.360
we're muting God because we feel that you know uh we feel that there is something that we have to

424
00:36:58.160 --> 00:37:04.160
do to engage with in order to be able to hear him that belief hinders us from being able to hear him

425
00:37:04.160 --> 00:37:09.200
it's so funny usually very interesting point to make because it was something I was thinking about

426
00:37:09.200 --> 00:37:15.520
while while you were talking and I was going to mention this in case it's helpful but but the more

427
00:37:15.840 --> 00:37:24.160
the the long the more we try to not do something the more likely we are to do it kind of and then

428
00:37:24.160 --> 00:37:30.880
and people talk about uh and then the more likely we are to manifest it so say for instance and

429
00:37:31.520 --> 00:37:42.240
people that uh that worry a lot they're trying to avoid trouble

430
00:37:42.320 --> 00:37:50.960
and I watch this person and people I know that the people that worry the most and constantly

431
00:37:50.960 --> 00:37:58.480
are trying to be the most risk averse end up manifesting the the worst uh and the most

432
00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:04.240
tight struggles in their lives and so we would think the opposite or the most the strong the

433
00:38:04.240 --> 00:38:09.760
long the harder that someone tries to not be like their mom or their dad the more likely they are to

434
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:16.400
become their mom or their dad yeah whatever it is that we try to do so in other words my point is

435
00:38:16.400 --> 00:38:22.960
that the more we try to get an answer or the more we try to uh not be a particular way or the more

436
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:30.960
we try to avoid displeasing God the more we try to do the right thing the harder that it makes us

437
00:38:30.960 --> 00:38:36.320
for us to actually do it we actually end up resisting the very thing we're trying to get

438
00:38:36.320 --> 00:38:41.040
and we end up manifesting the thing we're trying to run away from because whatever it is we focus

439
00:38:41.040 --> 00:38:48.720
on we we create more of yeah so it's a way to help us get out of like these cycles of like

440
00:38:48.720 --> 00:38:54.960
trying to get an answer well why am I confused the more that we stop and the less that we do

441
00:38:54.960 --> 00:39:02.480
and the more that we let go of the the clearer that things come it's really wild yeah no I I

442
00:39:02.480 --> 00:39:09.360
definitely agree with you and I think I don't know why I process things the way that I do exactly but

443
00:39:10.080 --> 00:39:16.560
I feel like if I can at least on some level understand a little more about why it

444
00:39:16.560 --> 00:39:21.680
like I it's literally like I need the information at the moment to be able to understand

445
00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:29.920
what what would be okay about charging money so what you just said about you know your two

446
00:39:29.920 --> 00:39:34.640
friends the one or the one friend who doesn't charge anything and the other friend who charges

447
00:39:34.640 --> 00:39:41.200
a lot and it's like I get it's not about the amount of money but I'm trying to reconcile

448
00:39:41.200 --> 00:39:46.640
it in my spirit so that I can understand like that God would even be okay with me charging any money

449
00:39:48.720 --> 00:39:52.000
yes so that comes from

450
00:39:52.000 --> 00:39:56.080
well it comes from a lot of things

451
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:08.240
so that was where I was going before so what I did is uh sorry just one second

452
00:40:08.240 --> 00:40:14.320
um if I've arrived is the gear on you it's because I keep checking my my map yeah no

453
00:40:14.320 --> 00:40:18.960
we're I think I think I'm in Greensboro and so I'm like I've got to make sure I know where I'm going

454
00:40:19.600 --> 00:40:25.840
so uh anyway um are you okay if you don't if you don't see me and I just follow my map for just a

455
00:40:25.840 --> 00:40:31.120
little bit because I literally am now in town and like having to follow it yeah no problem okay

456
00:40:31.120 --> 00:40:35.920
sorry about that okay so what I was saying earlier um about the whole you know because

457
00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:41.360
you're talking about you know money mindset and how it's not okay with me actually charging money

458
00:40:41.360 --> 00:40:53.920
etc um is I got okay with money when I realized that money was not when money lost its power in

459
00:40:53.920 --> 00:41:02.800
my world and it lost its power when it didn't when it no longer it no longer provided for me

460
00:41:03.360 --> 00:41:09.440
and God provided for me and that's what I was talking about earlier and I had jumped right to

461
00:41:09.440 --> 00:41:16.640
it I'm sorry if I created confusion by going to the deeper root issue but this is the root issue

462
00:41:16.640 --> 00:41:23.440
of it and that is the like a money mindset and this is what changed my mindset about money

463
00:41:24.000 --> 00:41:32.080
because nothing else did it things started to like when I I worked with my high ticket coach

464
00:41:32.640 --> 00:41:37.680
um um and he was trying to shift my perspective on money because I was like hey I don't understand

465
00:41:37.680 --> 00:41:42.640
how I can charge so much money I'm just trying to help people surely I should just charge like

466
00:41:42.640 --> 00:41:47.760
100 or maybe I should give it away for free or whatever so he worked on my mindset as well

467
00:41:48.480 --> 00:41:57.680
but even he didn't get me to where God got me and that is the fact that when I realized okay

468
00:41:57.680 --> 00:42:09.120
money does not provide for me God does I finally uh I finally uh money no longer bothers me so much

469
00:42:09.120 --> 00:42:17.120
you would be shocked and um you would be shocked about how many times I have been down to

470
00:42:17.760 --> 00:42:25.840
uh almost zero um and and actually yeah I mean like pretty wild I did tell you about this story

471
00:42:25.840 --> 00:42:31.040
didn't I the last time six dollars fifty four cents I think I told you that on Marco Polo right

472
00:42:32.480 --> 00:42:37.840
I think so yeah you cut out for a second was it two dollars I mean that was just one example

473
00:42:38.400 --> 00:42:43.760
six dollars and fifty four cents no I don't think you did tell me about that I think you I heard

474
00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:47.120
two dollars I thought you were talking about something else so what was it about this one

475
00:42:47.120 --> 00:42:52.320
I don't think you told me where I was down to six dollars and fifty four cents one time

476
00:42:52.880 --> 00:43:00.480
and uh and I had just uh I had just committed to um something to a whole bunch of clients

477
00:43:00.480 --> 00:43:04.800
that I was going to do something for them and then it was going to end we were going to interact

478
00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:11.200
together and it was going to be whatever well uh uh that was my last day of my internet and

479
00:43:11.200 --> 00:43:17.200
I needed seventy dollars to continue my internet because with the amount of data that I go through

480
00:43:17.200 --> 00:43:24.800
it would shock you um and uh so I have unlimited I have unlimited uh data on the internet that's

481
00:43:24.800 --> 00:43:30.320
how in order to function at the level that I do you know with my business that's what I needed so

482
00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:35.600
I lay down I just completely left so now that I've gotten further in my story

483
00:43:36.160 --> 00:43:42.560
is it still not familiar no you haven't told me this story okay I just wanted to make sure so that

484
00:43:42.560 --> 00:43:45.520
you wouldn't have to like sit and listen to the whole thing and be like at the end you're like

485
00:43:45.520 --> 00:43:54.640
yeah so you told me now okay I would I would just tell you okay good good so I uh uh I like I left

486
00:43:54.640 --> 00:43:59.280
my work I was feeling very stressed as you can imagine I was feeling all the stress and anxiety

487
00:43:59.360 --> 00:44:04.480
come up I literally had six dollars and fifty four cents is it you have to understand no credit

488
00:44:04.480 --> 00:44:11.280
cards six dollars and fifty four cents this was earlier this year I didn't tell a human soul so

489
00:44:11.280 --> 00:44:18.240
I lay down on my bed and I told the lord like okay lord um I know that you tell me that you're

490
00:44:18.240 --> 00:44:24.400
my provision and that you love me and that you're good to me I do thank god I'll be honest it's not

491
00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:30.480
something that I understand and but you know I'm choosing this I'm choosing that if you say this is

492
00:44:30.480 --> 00:44:35.040
who you are I'm choosing that that in my world this is who you are and this is how you will

493
00:44:35.040 --> 00:44:41.200
manifest so therefore you know I'm just I'm just asking you very gently of what would you like to

494
00:44:41.200 --> 00:44:45.600
do this is my situation you already know my situation but I'm just going to tell you you

495
00:44:45.600 --> 00:44:51.680
know that you know I've told all the clients I'm going to do this and I this is the last of my day

496
00:44:51.680 --> 00:44:58.240
of my internet and I owe 70 dollars or if I want to have it the rest of the month you know what or

497
00:44:58.240 --> 00:44:59.840
for the next month what what should

498
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:02.040
I do, what would you like to do?

499
00:45:02.040 --> 00:45:04.400
And then he reminded me, he said, Ashley,

500
00:45:04.400 --> 00:45:08.520
have your parents paid you your birthday money yet?

501
00:45:08.520 --> 00:45:11.920
Like, oh, well, I think so, but I don't know.

502
00:45:11.920 --> 00:45:14.520
So I checked, sure enough, I couldn't find it,

503
00:45:14.520 --> 00:45:16.040
so I called my mom and she said,

504
00:45:16.040 --> 00:45:17.640
no, Ashley, I haven't paid you that yet

505
00:45:17.640 --> 00:45:20.480
because I wanted to make sure that, you know,

506
00:45:20.480 --> 00:45:22.240
you were good with it and everything was okay.

507
00:45:22.240 --> 00:45:24.000
Do you want me to go ahead and transfer it

508
00:45:24.000 --> 00:45:25.720
into your bank account now?

509
00:45:25.720 --> 00:45:28.280
And I said, oh yeah, sure, yeah, no, it'd be good.

510
00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:31.920
Well, they paid me $75 for my birthday.

511
00:45:31.920 --> 00:45:36.280
So right then, immediately, I got $75.

512
00:45:36.280 --> 00:45:40.400
So that paid for my internet.

513
00:45:40.400 --> 00:45:44.600
And so it's like, okay, Lord, I got it.

514
00:45:44.600 --> 00:45:47.440
And then, I mean, because otherwise, I mean,

515
00:45:47.440 --> 00:45:51.600
see, we look at that situation on this side of things.

516
00:45:51.600 --> 00:45:55.040
We're like, oh, yeah, see, you know, it was just so easy.

517
00:45:55.080 --> 00:46:00.080
But in the situation, I had no idea where I could get money.

518
00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:01.400
No clue.

519
00:46:01.400 --> 00:46:03.360
I was like, Lord, I don't know,

520
00:46:03.360 --> 00:46:06.960
other than like asking for charity, what do I do?

521
00:46:06.960 --> 00:46:10.600
And the Lord reminded me of something very odd.

522
00:46:10.600 --> 00:46:13.840
That was, Ashley, did your parents give you the birthday,

523
00:46:13.840 --> 00:46:14.680
your birthday money?

524
00:46:14.680 --> 00:46:16.320
Because they were gonna give it to me early.

525
00:46:16.320 --> 00:46:18.800
My birthday wasn't for months.

526
00:46:18.800 --> 00:46:21.960
So anyway, so there was that.

527
00:46:21.960 --> 00:46:23.200
And then a couple of days later,

528
00:46:23.200 --> 00:46:25.240
I had multiple things up on Facebook.

529
00:46:25.240 --> 00:46:28.000
And I do mean a gob of things on Facebook.

530
00:46:29.280 --> 00:46:30.760
Let me hear.

531
00:46:30.760 --> 00:46:32.280
I had a gob of things on Facebook.

532
00:46:32.280 --> 00:46:33.280
Can you see me?

533
00:46:33.280 --> 00:46:34.440
Yep.

534
00:46:34.440 --> 00:46:35.280
And, whoops.

535
00:46:36.400 --> 00:46:38.000
And they were not moving.

536
00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:39.480
And nobody was biting, nothing.

537
00:46:39.480 --> 00:46:40.920
And I told God, I said, hey, God,

538
00:46:40.920 --> 00:46:42.480
you know, I need to go to the grocery store

539
00:46:42.480 --> 00:46:44.040
and get some groceries.

540
00:46:44.040 --> 00:46:46.840
And you know that I only now, since I paid for my internet,

541
00:46:46.840 --> 00:46:51.280
I now have $9 and something in my account.

542
00:46:51.280 --> 00:46:54.440
And what would you like me to do?

543
00:46:54.440 --> 00:46:57.320
So I asked him, I said, would you please bring,

544
00:46:57.320 --> 00:46:59.880
this is like the next day or the day after,

545
00:46:59.880 --> 00:47:00.960
I think it's probably the next day.

546
00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:02.600
And I told him, I said, you know,

547
00:47:02.600 --> 00:47:03.640
what would you like to do?

548
00:47:03.640 --> 00:47:07.800
And he immediately brought someone in

549
00:47:07.800 --> 00:47:12.320
to purchase multiple things.

550
00:47:12.320 --> 00:47:14.680
And it was $17.

551
00:47:14.680 --> 00:47:18.080
I was able to finish everything out within a few hours,

552
00:47:18.080 --> 00:47:20.520
go drop it off, collect the $17.

553
00:47:20.960 --> 00:47:23.080
All from rest, I was like, okay.

554
00:47:23.080 --> 00:47:25.720
I just, because I knew, Ashley, you can't strive for this.

555
00:47:25.720 --> 00:47:26.560
You can't get anxious.

556
00:47:26.560 --> 00:47:27.840
You can't worry.

557
00:47:27.840 --> 00:47:28.720
Take it all in stride.

558
00:47:28.720 --> 00:47:30.440
God's providing, it's all okay.

559
00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:31.280
Act like it.

560
00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:33.040
If I can't act like it,

561
00:47:33.040 --> 00:47:34.960
I'm going to be very calm about this whole thing.

562
00:47:34.960 --> 00:47:36.640
And I'm not going to stress, I'm not going to worry.

563
00:47:36.640 --> 00:47:38.640
I'm just going to act like I have a million dollars

564
00:47:38.640 --> 00:47:39.480
in the bank.

565
00:47:39.480 --> 00:47:41.760
So I went, collected the money,

566
00:47:41.760 --> 00:47:43.200
went to the grocery store,

567
00:47:43.200 --> 00:47:45.760
and then I got, I went through

568
00:47:45.760 --> 00:47:47.480
and I didn't calculate anything.

569
00:47:47.480 --> 00:47:49.160
I just got what I would normally have gotten

570
00:47:49.160 --> 00:47:50.240
at that grocery store.

571
00:47:50.920 --> 00:47:52.040
I even got something that I thought,

572
00:47:52.040 --> 00:47:53.360
I don't know if I should get this

573
00:47:53.360 --> 00:47:54.400
because I don't really need it.

574
00:47:54.400 --> 00:47:56.480
I thought, Ashley, is your God that good?

575
00:47:56.480 --> 00:47:59.320
And so I, it was the milk.

576
00:47:59.320 --> 00:48:02.520
And so I told God, I said, God, I don't need this,

577
00:48:02.520 --> 00:48:03.880
but I believe you are so good

578
00:48:03.880 --> 00:48:06.360
that you would just give me milk just because I like it.

579
00:48:06.360 --> 00:48:09.000
So I, this is me, God, choosing that you are this good.

580
00:48:09.000 --> 00:48:11.760
I literally said that as I reached in and I grabbed,

581
00:48:11.760 --> 00:48:14.720
and I grabbed it because I'm having to tell my soul,

582
00:48:14.720 --> 00:48:16.520
so this is what you believe now.

583
00:48:16.520 --> 00:48:17.920
This is how you're acting.

584
00:48:17.920 --> 00:48:19.320
So I put all this in the cart.

585
00:48:19.320 --> 00:48:21.840
I go up, I had just been given $17.

586
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:22.760
I ring it all up.

587
00:48:22.760 --> 00:48:26.160
I forced myself to not look as the total was adding up

588
00:48:26.160 --> 00:48:28.520
because I had forced myself to not calculate

589
00:48:28.520 --> 00:48:30.960
and add up all of these products and how much they were.

590
00:48:30.960 --> 00:48:32.920
And I finally looked at the end total

591
00:48:32.920 --> 00:48:36.920
and it was $17 and like 56 cents or something like that.

592
00:48:36.920 --> 00:48:41.000
So God was showing me, Ashley, I provide, I provide.

593
00:48:41.000 --> 00:48:43.280
And so since then, what he's done,

594
00:48:43.280 --> 00:48:45.880
he has like, I asked him not,

595
00:48:45.880 --> 00:48:49.160
I asked him at some point sometime after that,

596
00:48:50.000 --> 00:48:50.960
Lord, okay, Lord, you've been showing me

597
00:48:50.960 --> 00:48:53.000
how you come through in the 11th hour.

598
00:48:53.000 --> 00:48:56.840
I'd like to see you, what it looks like,

599
00:48:56.840 --> 00:48:57.840
because I know that you say

600
00:48:57.840 --> 00:48:59.760
your character operates in abundance.

601
00:48:59.760 --> 00:49:04.640
I would like to see you come through abundantly.

602
00:49:04.640 --> 00:49:08.360
So, excuse me, I don't remember what it is that I needed.

603
00:49:08.360 --> 00:49:11.040
I needed money for something,

604
00:49:11.040 --> 00:49:13.320
but it was probably just a few.

605
00:49:13.320 --> 00:49:14.600
I don't remember how much it was,

606
00:49:14.600 --> 00:49:16.520
but I needed just something.

607
00:49:16.560 --> 00:49:21.400
And well, he like multiplied it by at least,

608
00:49:21.400 --> 00:49:23.800
I think he multiplied it by 10 times,

609
00:49:23.800 --> 00:49:27.000
what it either five or 10 times what it is that I needed.

610
00:49:27.000 --> 00:49:28.960
And I didn't need a small amount.

611
00:49:28.960 --> 00:49:33.560
And I never had that much money that had come in.

612
00:49:33.560 --> 00:49:38.560
And boom, it came in from out of nowhere.

613
00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:40.960
I mean, it was not a new client.

614
00:49:40.960 --> 00:49:44.200
It came out from the middle of nowhere.

615
00:49:44.200 --> 00:49:45.720
In fact, I thought it was a mistake.

616
00:49:45.720 --> 00:49:47.960
So I contacted the person and said,

617
00:49:47.960 --> 00:49:51.600
just to clarify, I think that this wasn't intended for me.

618
00:49:51.600 --> 00:49:53.480
And they said, no, that is for you.

619
00:49:53.480 --> 00:49:54.680
And here's why.

620
00:49:54.680 --> 00:49:56.120
Here's what happened to us.

621
00:49:56.120 --> 00:49:57.720
We weren't expecting it.

622
00:49:57.720 --> 00:49:59.480
We wanted to bless you with it.

623
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:05.480
So I so it suddenly enabled me to not only pay for what it was that I was trying to pay for

624
00:50:05.840 --> 00:50:10.120
but it also enabled me to to do things that I didn't that

625
00:50:11.080 --> 00:50:13.080
it to step out and

626
00:50:14.200 --> 00:50:15.400
prepare for

627
00:50:15.400 --> 00:50:21.160
Things that were coming in the future like in other words things that God's like hey, Ashley

628
00:50:21.160 --> 00:50:24.240
You're gonna need this and so as soon as I got the money

629
00:50:24.240 --> 00:50:28.800
I was like, oh you want me to get that now in order to have it for later

630
00:50:28.800 --> 00:50:30.880
He could have had me do it in the 11th hour

631
00:50:30.880 --> 00:50:32.880
But I had asked to see him

632
00:50:33.280 --> 00:50:40.160
Provide for me before the 11th hour and provide for me in abundance and then beyond that I had money left over

633
00:50:40.520 --> 00:50:45.320
So and then that's another thing I do money just can't mean anything to me

634
00:50:45.320 --> 00:50:49.280
So sometimes I'll get money and I will give away half of it

635
00:50:50.200 --> 00:50:54.120
And we just have of what I just got in because it doesn't matter

636
00:50:54.280 --> 00:51:00.440
It's good the more it's gonna come in and then it's gonna go out and then I'm gonna and it so my point is that

637
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:02.240
when I

638
00:51:02.240 --> 00:51:07.360
When I learned that I really true that God provides for me

639
00:51:07.680 --> 00:51:12.640
Money doesn't because so often people will gift me things. I have had

640
00:51:13.600 --> 00:51:21.640
thousands of dollars that people have gifted to me and not just money but goods and services just

641
00:51:22.320 --> 00:51:27.440
Given I didn't ask for it. Hey, Ashley, would you like this? Hey, would you like this?

642
00:51:27.440 --> 00:51:31.520
Hey, would you like to stay here? And would you like to do this? And hey, we'd like to take you out

643
00:51:31.520 --> 00:51:37.280
We don't just like what anyway because I chose God you're my provider not God

644
00:51:37.280 --> 00:51:40.800
You give me money and so he gives it to me in a variety ways

645
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:47.200
and when I chose that he was my provider and money wasn't then it helped me take my

646
00:51:47.960 --> 00:51:49.960
hands off of money so now

647
00:51:50.520 --> 00:51:55.400
It can I I don't worry when my account gets down really really low

648
00:51:55.400 --> 00:52:00.360
I don't worry about what it is that I'm going to do not going to what am I gonna have money for not have many

649
00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:07.080
For that's God's God's problem. I just rely on his character and that helps me make decisions about

650
00:52:08.160 --> 00:52:13.880
money because sons of God make money based on big money make decisions based on

651
00:52:14.640 --> 00:52:16.640
Not on money, but on will

652
00:52:17.640 --> 00:52:19.280
So

653
00:52:19.280 --> 00:52:23.080
But in order to do that, I had to make God my provision

654
00:52:23.200 --> 00:52:30.120
Not say that God provides me money because then it makes money my provision and when I realized money wasn't my provision

655
00:52:30.120 --> 00:52:35.680
I stopped it loses its power. So therefore it doesn't bother me when you know when people

656
00:52:37.160 --> 00:52:43.520
If some people have paid five thousand to get in the group some people have paid two dollars and twenty two cents

657
00:52:44.400 --> 00:52:46.400
But and they've paid everything in between

658
00:52:47.880 --> 00:52:49.360
It doesn't matter

659
00:52:49.360 --> 00:52:56.080
It that money means something to them. My God provides provides for me and he provides for me without money. So

660
00:52:56.880 --> 00:53:00.800
That's what I'm talking about. That's the money mindset issue. It's not

661
00:53:01.360 --> 00:53:07.720
Okay, how do we appropriately see money? It's that no. No money isn't our provision at all

662
00:53:08.720 --> 00:53:15.880
God's the provision. God's not the provider of money. That's the provision and he can give without money

663
00:53:18.080 --> 00:53:19.720
Right that

664
00:53:19.720 --> 00:53:26.280
That's what I was referencing earlier. It's like they're really really deep issue of this question

665
00:53:26.280 --> 00:53:31.920
But I'm sorry if I went too deep too fast and it sounded like I wasn't addressing your question because I realized I was I

666
00:53:31.920 --> 00:53:36.000
Was addressing it, but it didn't sound like it and so I thought you know

667
00:53:36.000 --> 00:53:42.520
I need to just address your question first and then eventually you asked this one once that one made sense. So sorry about that

668
00:53:42.720 --> 00:53:48.600
No, no, that's okay. I knew there was like, yeah. No, that's perfect. And I totally understand what you're saying there and I guess

669
00:53:50.280 --> 00:53:52.280
You know, I

670
00:53:52.800 --> 00:53:57.960
God is definitely my protection and my provision. You're right. He doesn't he

671
00:53:58.720 --> 00:54:00.920
It's not that he provides me money

672
00:54:01.920 --> 00:54:06.080
He is just my provision in general so that definitely works

673
00:54:08.600 --> 00:54:12.080
So it's basically about kind of letting go of

674
00:54:13.840 --> 00:54:19.560
The any power money might have over me so like things like well

675
00:54:19.560 --> 00:54:22.400
I need money to be able to do this. I need money to be able to do that

676
00:54:22.720 --> 00:54:28.200
more like God will give me the opportunity to do those things and you know, I I

677
00:54:28.800 --> 00:54:31.920
Really like yeah, or I really want to

678
00:54:34.920 --> 00:54:36.920
What else was I gonna say, um

679
00:54:37.640 --> 00:54:39.880
Like God will bring me the right clients

680
00:54:39.880 --> 00:54:46.440
Like you said before no matter what I charge whatever I line up with him, whatever I feel he's saying to me

681
00:54:46.880 --> 00:54:52.200
He will bring me the right people and honestly, I'm not opposed to giving people

682
00:54:52.800 --> 00:54:56.520
Like if I if I decide on a price like let's say it's like, you know

683
00:54:56.520 --> 00:54:59.480
397 a month or something

684
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:04.000
I am not, which is what?

685
00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:05.200
Nothing.

686
00:55:05.200 --> 00:55:06.800
What did you say?

687
00:55:06.800 --> 00:55:10.000
Nothing, because then I, no, no, no,

688
00:55:10.000 --> 00:55:14.120
because it doesn't, it depends,

689
00:55:14.120 --> 00:55:16.920
and no, I was about to say something,

690
00:55:16.920 --> 00:55:19.320
but then I realized, no, because if I say that,

691
00:55:19.320 --> 00:55:23.000
but then if it's received in the,

692
00:55:23.000 --> 00:55:26.200
when you're in transition from shifting over here,

693
00:55:26.200 --> 00:55:29.400
it could sound, if you hear it from over here,

694
00:55:29.400 --> 00:55:31.320
it could sound totally different than the way I meant

695
00:55:31.320 --> 00:55:33.800
to see it, when it meant it to be received,

696
00:55:33.800 --> 00:55:36.360
and it would be very confusing, so nevermind.

697
00:55:36.360 --> 00:55:37.560
Go for it.

698
00:55:37.560 --> 00:55:40.800
If God tells, if you and God decide 399

699
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:42.400
is what you wanna do, then what?

700
00:55:47.040 --> 00:55:49.120
I would really love, though,

701
00:55:49.120 --> 00:55:52.200
for you to consider telling me,

702
00:55:52.200 --> 00:55:53.280
maybe not what you said,

703
00:55:53.280 --> 00:55:54.960
but the meaning behind what you said,

704
00:55:54.960 --> 00:55:57.640
because I'd really like to understand

705
00:55:57.640 --> 00:56:00.280
what was going on in you at the time

706
00:56:00.280 --> 00:56:01.480
that you said whatever you said,

707
00:56:01.480 --> 00:56:02.960
even if you don't tell me what it was,

708
00:56:02.960 --> 00:56:04.520
maybe the spirit behind it.

709
00:56:05.960 --> 00:56:06.840
Spirit behind it?

710
00:56:09.160 --> 00:56:10.680
Oh, behind what I was saying, okay,

711
00:56:10.680 --> 00:56:15.680
so I was about to make a comment about the amount,

712
00:56:21.600 --> 00:56:25.880
because I thought the amount still meant something

713
00:56:25.880 --> 00:56:27.240
to you in your world.

714
00:56:28.640 --> 00:56:31.760
And so I was going to address it from that,

715
00:56:31.760 --> 00:56:35.800
and then I realized, no, I don't need to answer

716
00:56:35.800 --> 00:56:40.280
your question, assuming you're still coming at it

717
00:56:40.280 --> 00:56:42.640
from this perspective.

718
00:56:42.640 --> 00:56:46.320
I needed to give you an opportunity to come at it

719
00:56:46.320 --> 00:56:50.240
from this perspective first, and then whatever dollar,

720
00:56:50.240 --> 00:56:52.360
whatever I would have said about that amount

721
00:56:52.360 --> 00:56:56.040
would be received as meaning something different.

722
00:56:57.040 --> 00:57:00.200
Does that, so anyway, that's what I was concerned about,

723
00:57:00.200 --> 00:57:02.000
and I realized, oh, wow, Ashley,

724
00:57:02.000 --> 00:57:05.600
that don't address it thinking that this is how she thinks,

725
00:57:05.600 --> 00:57:07.520
because I was making an assumption

726
00:57:07.520 --> 00:57:10.360
of how you would receive it, which is wrong.

727
00:57:10.360 --> 00:57:11.720
So anyway.

728
00:57:11.720 --> 00:57:14.080
How did you think I might receive it?

729
00:57:15.840 --> 00:57:20.840
That the amount matters.

730
00:57:21.040 --> 00:57:24.320
In other words, that you still can't charge money,

731
00:57:24.360 --> 00:57:26.520
that you're still struggling with charging money

732
00:57:26.520 --> 00:57:27.760
for what it is you do.

733
00:57:27.760 --> 00:57:29.400
I wanted to give you an opportunity

734
00:57:29.400 --> 00:57:31.800
to get away from the conversation process,

735
00:57:31.800 --> 00:57:35.480
what you believe about money.

736
00:57:35.480 --> 00:57:38.720
And I would felt mentioning it would confuse it

737
00:57:38.720 --> 00:57:41.520
when you're still not sure what you think.

738
00:57:41.520 --> 00:57:42.480
Does that make sense?

739
00:57:42.480 --> 00:57:43.320
Yeah.

740
00:57:43.320 --> 00:57:45.760
That's why, I was, because it was like,

741
00:57:45.760 --> 00:57:46.720
Ashley, why are you talking about it?

742
00:57:46.720 --> 00:57:49.320
You're just trying to give her an opportunity

743
00:57:49.320 --> 00:57:51.200
to process the whole mindset.

744
00:57:51.200 --> 00:57:54.160
Why on earth are you like bringing something up now?

745
00:57:55.000 --> 00:57:55.840
So that was it.

746
00:57:55.840 --> 00:57:57.520
It was just, I was being confusing, I'm sorry.

747
00:57:57.520 --> 00:57:58.880
No, that's okay.

748
00:57:58.880 --> 00:58:02.160
And so like 397 a month would be,

749
00:58:02.160 --> 00:58:06.640
like 397 a month would feel totally worth it to me.

750
00:58:06.640 --> 00:58:07.920
Like if somebody paid that,

751
00:58:07.920 --> 00:58:10.480
I would think that's a really nice middle ground.

752
00:58:10.480 --> 00:58:13.680
But if I talk to somebody on the phone

753
00:58:13.680 --> 00:58:17.240
and they were in such a great place and they were willing,

754
00:58:17.240 --> 00:58:20.280
I could tell they really wanted to invest in themselves,

755
00:58:20.280 --> 00:58:21.120
but I could tell

756
00:58:21.120 --> 00:58:24.000
that they were really struggling financially.

757
00:58:24.680 --> 00:58:27.840
I could always give them something to see

758
00:58:27.840 --> 00:58:29.960
how committed they really were in a sense.

759
00:58:29.960 --> 00:58:31.760
Like there's a book called

760
00:58:31.760 --> 00:58:34.720
Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer.

761
00:58:34.720 --> 00:58:35.960
And I really like it.

762
00:58:35.960 --> 00:58:39.040
And I would almost say to somebody, you know what?

763
00:58:39.040 --> 00:58:41.360
I'm happy to give you,

764
00:58:41.360 --> 00:58:43.680
a pretty significant discount on that.

765
00:58:43.680 --> 00:58:45.560
If you're really committed,

766
00:58:45.560 --> 00:58:48.600
I'd be happy to take like 50% off that price

767
00:58:48.600 --> 00:58:53.000
and do it for 197 a month, for example.

768
00:58:53.000 --> 00:58:54.680
But what I'd like you to do,

769
00:58:54.680 --> 00:58:57.440
if you're open to it is go and read that book,

770
00:58:57.440 --> 00:59:01.480
come back to me in like two or three weeks when you're done

771
00:59:01.480 --> 00:59:03.920
and give me kind of a bit of an idea

772
00:59:03.920 --> 00:59:05.040
of what you learned from it.

773
00:59:05.040 --> 00:59:06.800
Cause if they're willing to do that,

774
00:59:06.800 --> 00:59:09.680
if they're willing to go and like spend time reading

775
00:59:09.680 --> 00:59:13.880
a really, I think profound book based on the Bible,

776
00:59:13.880 --> 00:59:16.000
based on your mindset, things like that,

777
00:59:16.000 --> 00:59:18.000
similar to what I teach,

778
00:59:18.000 --> 00:59:19.760
I would think that would show me

779
00:59:19.760 --> 00:59:21.880
that they're really committed.

780
00:59:21.880 --> 00:59:25.720
And so God's kind of put that on my heart lately of,

781
00:59:25.720 --> 00:59:28.040
you know, how can I get the right people

782
00:59:28.040 --> 00:59:29.960
into the program that I know are committed

783
00:59:29.960 --> 00:59:33.480
without sort of having them have to pay the full price?

784
00:59:33.480 --> 00:59:35.000
Like, how does that feel to you

785
00:59:35.000 --> 00:59:37.360
when you hear me talk about it?

786
00:59:37.360 --> 00:59:41.040
Well, I mean, I think that, I mean, that sounds great.

787
00:59:41.040 --> 00:59:42.600
What's important is, you know,

788
00:59:42.600 --> 00:59:47.160
whether or not that's resonating with your spirit.

789
00:59:47.160 --> 00:59:50.800
Like, okay, I feel, I mean, even if you don't fully,

790
00:59:50.800 --> 00:59:54.480
even if it's not a fully fleshed out feeling of an idea,

791
00:59:54.480 --> 00:59:55.720
you feel kind of a direction.

792
00:59:55.720 --> 00:59:58.920
You feel like, I think that might be life for my spirit.

793
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:06.900
You know, remember that there, there can be a, God provides us a playground to experiment

794
01:00:06.900 --> 01:00:08.600
with things, et cetera.

795
01:00:08.600 --> 01:00:14.600
So the, one of the really interesting things about what you're talking about, that's what

796
01:00:14.600 --> 01:00:15.600
I do.

797
01:00:15.600 --> 01:00:21.040
What I require is change for almost free where people can pay whatever they want.

798
01:00:21.040 --> 01:00:22.320
And why can I do that?

799
01:00:22.320 --> 01:00:31.600
I can do that because people have just have, people have, I go through this whole hour

800
01:00:31.600 --> 01:00:40.280
with them in which I get them to recognize this seriousness of the rest intensive and

801
01:00:40.280 --> 01:00:46.800
the fact that what it requires is change because I take it very seriously.

802
01:00:46.800 --> 01:00:52.840
And when they realize how serious it is, all of a sudden they take it very seriously.

803
01:00:52.840 --> 01:00:57.920
And so you do know that at least half, at least half of the people that I've talked

804
01:00:57.920 --> 01:01:05.880
to, if not more than half, have not joined the group when it's essentially free.

805
01:01:05.880 --> 01:01:12.480
Because they realize, okay, there's not an exchange of money.

806
01:01:12.480 --> 01:01:14.440
This is actually going to require me to change.

807
01:01:14.440 --> 01:01:17.000
And that's not something I'm willing to pay.

808
01:01:17.000 --> 01:01:28.720
So my point is that that is what, and also I don't market.

809
01:01:28.720 --> 01:01:35.680
So far everybody has, I do ask for video testimonials, but so far everybody has been referral.

810
01:01:35.680 --> 01:01:37.800
That's not a more godly way to do things.

811
01:01:37.800 --> 01:01:41.600
Remember I used to market, I used to go to big conferences and sit next to people who

812
01:01:41.600 --> 01:01:46.840
were doing, who were marketing like me for Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, I went to the really

813
01:01:46.840 --> 01:01:47.840
big stuff.

814
01:01:47.840 --> 01:01:50.680
That's what I used to do for a living, marketing, it's not bad.

815
01:01:50.680 --> 01:01:58.800
But I'm just saying that I have them chase me.

816
01:01:58.800 --> 01:02:00.520
They have to find me.

817
01:02:00.520 --> 01:02:01.520
They have to work hard.

818
01:02:01.520 --> 01:02:08.000
They have to think, there's no place on my page that other than like one post that's

819
01:02:08.000 --> 01:02:14.240
buried way down, like back in March, that people even know that I have a program or

820
01:02:14.240 --> 01:02:18.120
how to get, or how to access it.

821
01:02:18.120 --> 01:02:24.400
The only way is that they could think, well, I don't know how to get on this program that

822
01:02:24.400 --> 01:02:26.640
all these video testimonials are talking about.

823
01:02:26.640 --> 01:02:30.360
Everyone keeps saying just contact Ashley, so maybe I'll message her.

824
01:02:30.360 --> 01:02:35.160
I don't even tell people, hey, message me, I mean, unless I'm being interviewed.

825
01:02:35.160 --> 01:02:42.920
My point is that they have to, so if they have even gotten to me, they've had to do

826
01:02:42.920 --> 01:02:43.920
a lot of work.

827
01:02:43.920 --> 01:02:51.640
Say that I send them my, I only send them, I asked them if they want me to send them

828
01:02:51.640 --> 01:02:58.080
my Calendly link, and then they have to tell me yes, and then I will send them the Calendly

829
01:02:58.080 --> 01:03:04.000
link, and then they have to actually pick a good schedule for them, then they have to

830
01:03:04.000 --> 01:03:07.120
make it, then we have to sit for an hour.

831
01:03:07.120 --> 01:03:08.400
They have to do a lot of work.

832
01:03:08.400 --> 01:03:14.840
They have to do all of the work, and then I tell them that I'm there if they want something,

833
01:03:14.840 --> 01:03:17.440
and then I go away, and I don't ever contact them again.

834
01:03:17.440 --> 01:03:21.160
It's not that I don't want to, and it's not that I don't care about them, but hey, if

835
01:03:21.160 --> 01:03:23.440
it's important to them, then they'll reach out.

836
01:03:23.440 --> 01:03:27.960
My point is I don't chase them, they chase me, and that's one of the things that lets

837
01:03:27.960 --> 01:03:33.200
me know how serious that they are, so none of those things are magic, it just ends up

838
01:03:33.400 --> 01:03:37.320
being what I've done, and I wasn't planning on doing any of those things when I started

839
01:03:37.320 --> 01:03:38.320
the program.

840
01:03:38.320 --> 01:03:45.200
It's just what I now look at now and realize, oh, that's apparently how I do it, so that

841
01:03:45.200 --> 01:03:51.800
is how they show me how serious that they are, how they have, the fact that they have

842
01:03:51.800 --> 01:03:57.360
had to take a lot of responsibility, so I think that what you're talking about sounds

843
01:03:57.360 --> 01:04:04.000
like a great ... What's important is that resonating in your spirit, and even if you're

844
01:04:04.000 --> 01:04:07.480
not quite sure, try it.

845
01:04:07.480 --> 01:04:11.680
If you think it's enough of an idea that you should go for it, then go for it.

846
01:04:11.680 --> 01:04:14.680
It doesn't have to be perfect, it doesn't have to be like, oh, I know this is what I'm

847
01:04:14.680 --> 01:04:15.680
going to do for the next 10 years.

848
01:04:15.680 --> 01:04:16.680
Oh, I don't know, this might work.

849
01:04:16.680 --> 01:04:17.680
I'll try it on one person.

850
01:04:17.680 --> 01:04:25.800
I can tell you the number of things that I experimented with and tried on one person.

851
01:04:25.800 --> 01:04:29.440
It's funny, because with you and I, I feel like it was so easy.

852
01:04:29.440 --> 01:04:34.560
Oh, that's nice.

853
01:04:34.560 --> 01:04:35.760
You know what helped me with you?

854
01:04:35.760 --> 01:04:38.480
I had to work hard.

855
01:04:38.480 --> 01:04:42.800
You had, I don't know how many conversations, I've never had so many conversations with

856
01:04:42.800 --> 01:04:47.240
one person before they joined the Rest Intensive, as I did with you.

857
01:04:47.240 --> 01:04:52.160
I was like, wow, she really worked this.

858
01:04:52.160 --> 01:04:53.160
I did.

859
01:04:53.160 --> 01:04:54.680
Can you hear me?

860
01:04:54.680 --> 01:05:00.080
I felt, yeah, I felt it was, I felt it flowed very easily between.

861
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:04.920
In you and I, like we just kind of went back and forth and had these conversations and yeah.

862
01:05:05.760 --> 01:05:16.480
I wanted it, but I also wanted to make sure that it was something that I really felt in my spirit was going to move me kind of into a greater deeper relationship with God.

863
01:05:17.160 --> 01:05:17.480
yeah.

864
01:05:17.760 --> 01:05:18.280
Because I felt.

865
01:05:20.000 --> 01:05:20.480
You know what I mean.

866
01:05:20.480 --> 01:05:22.680
pursued it for yourself is what I mean.

867
01:05:23.240 --> 01:05:24.840
yeah I really want to know is this.

868
01:05:25.840 --> 01:05:26.320
myself.

869
01:05:28.160 --> 01:05:28.520
I can.

870
01:05:30.520 --> 01:05:47.240
Sorry we're stopped at the at the hotel so i'm i'm sorry i'm gonna have to go in about five minutes, but that's why she's all all anxious today go ahead, so you thought it was so it did it played really well with that between us.

871
01:05:47.560 --> 01:05:55.680
yeah yeah I felt like the flow was really good and it just I guess I kind of assumed that you would have had the same type of thing with everybody where.

872
01:05:56.000 --> 01:06:06.360
Somebody would find out about it and they'd be like oh i'll just ask a few questions i'll hop on the phone we'll chat like at first, I think, when I met you at first I saw you as kind of like somebody I wanted to.

873
01:06:07.120 --> 01:06:10.800
You know, like I wasn't thinking about at first, you being my coach.

874
01:06:10.880 --> 01:06:13.600
Good i'm glad yeah.

875
01:06:14.000 --> 01:06:14.720
And then yeah.

876
01:06:14.800 --> 01:06:16.880
Oh i'm glad that's where I want it yeah.

877
01:06:17.040 --> 01:06:18.160
yeah and then I.

878
01:06:19.120 --> 01:06:33.280
And then, when you had a yeah and then, when you were like talking to me about the rest intensive I thought yeah I know this sounds like really great, but I always liked that you and I sort of had that basis of kind of a friendship before.

879
01:06:33.520 --> 01:06:44.360
You became my coach and also from my experience i'm really, really, really discerning about who I allow to speak into my life or coach me right.

880
01:06:45.040 --> 01:06:55.080
So yeah you were one of the first people I actually allowed to fully speak into my life into the in that time, because I was still healing right so.

881
01:06:55.120 --> 01:07:00.520
yeah it felt like I guess I thought that everybody kind of would do that they'd meet you they'd.

882
01:07:00.960 --> 01:07:09.520
really enjoy you they'd enjoy what you had to say about the rest intensive and they would just join, because why would money stop them because they don't have to pay a certain amount.

883
01:07:09.920 --> 01:07:22.680
But yet it's interesting that you say that people will join in 50% of the time and 50% of the time they won't and it's like shocking to me that some people are not.

884
01:07:23.800 --> 01:07:30.600
They they're not fighting for their life in a sense they're not like I want this, I want to grow closer to God, I want this life for myself like why not.

885
01:07:31.600 --> 01:07:43.560
I know well it's the same thing with with a you know with anything with trauma or whatever it's like yeah, but what do I have to give up to do it, and some people just aren't willing to do that so.

886
01:07:44.240 --> 01:07:44.640
that's a good.

887
01:07:45.280 --> 01:07:45.720
Actually.

888
01:07:46.560 --> 01:07:48.680
And I am so very sorry.

889
01:07:48.720 --> 01:07:50.440
i'm actually gonna have to go.

890
01:07:50.680 --> 01:07:54.040
yeah no it's all good it was great chatting with you enjoy your time.

891
01:07:54.480 --> 01:08:01.480
You too, I hope that you got the answer you were looking for enough one to be able to pursue it, you know more with the word.

892
01:08:03.120 --> 01:08:04.840
Good for sure, thank you.

893
01:08:05.080 --> 01:08:07.040
you're welcome good to talk to you.

894
01:08:07.280 --> 01:08:09.280
You too, have a good one bye.

895
01:08:09.400 --> 01:08:09.960
bye.
