00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.240
Hey everyone, how are you? I hope you're having an amazing day. My name is Cheryl

2
00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:12.360
Flaire and I am so delighted to be part of this amazing community here working

3
00:00:12.360 --> 00:00:19.080
from rest with Ashley. I am one of her personal clients like she said in her

4
00:00:19.080 --> 00:00:24.840
introduction of me. Thank you Ashley for that. And yes, Ashley had introduced me to

5
00:00:24.840 --> 00:00:30.320
this idea of working from rest months and months and months ago and what a

6
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:34.960
life-changing thing it has been. I'll tell you a little bit more about that soon.

7
00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:41.040
But a little bit more about me. I am a wife and a mom, a stay-at-home mom. I have

8
00:00:41.040 --> 00:00:47.560
three kiddos, two boys ages six and four and a little daughter who just turned

9
00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:52.240
one year old. My husband Dan, he is a concept artist at Sight and Sound

10
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:57.760
Theater and that's really close to where we live. So we all just love

11
00:00:57.760 --> 00:01:03.320
working from home and being together and as much as possible here in Lancaster

12
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:11.120
County, Pennsylvania. So yeah, I started my business with Young Living Essential

13
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:15.400
Oils. I'm a professional marketer, a network marketer with Young Living

14
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:21.160
Essential Oils and I started that business when my firstborn was 11 months

15
00:01:21.160 --> 00:01:26.960
old and I continued to grow that business and do that business for the

16
00:01:26.960 --> 00:01:32.560
past five plus years. So hi Priscilla, how are you? I hope you're having a

17
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:38.920
wonderful day. So yeah, I have had it for five plus years and there's only

18
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:43.560
been like literally 12 months checked in the middle there where I have not been

19
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:49.040
pregnant or nursing or both. So I know a lot of y'all stay-at-home, work-at-home

20
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:54.960
moms can so relate to typing on the computer or doing things on your phone,

21
00:01:54.960 --> 00:02:02.000
holding the baby, rocking the baby, right? Multitasking all the time. So yes and

22
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:06.320
the more kids, the more stress, right? The more places your mind is at at the same

23
00:02:06.320 --> 00:02:13.840
time and doing it with three has been a significant challenge. Ashley did a video

24
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:20.080
about working from rest and on her Facebook group in November and it caught

25
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:25.280
my eye. Ashley has been a lifelong friend. We go all the way back to our freshman

26
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:29.440
year in college and she was always one of those business-minded friends who no

27
00:02:29.440 --> 00:02:34.240
matter where we were at in life or what we were doing, if I had a fun idea I

28
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:38.320
could just call her up and share it with her and she would be my biggest

29
00:02:38.320 --> 00:02:43.640
cheerleader and I'm so grateful that we never lost touch in our life because

30
00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:51.960
God knew that this moment would come. So when I hired her as my as a one-on-one

31
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:56.920
coach for me in my business, I was coming out of maternity leave from having my

32
00:02:56.920 --> 00:03:02.920
baby girl and at that time the Lord was stirring in my heart about this idea of

33
00:03:02.920 --> 00:03:08.040
Ashley's video that I had seen working from rest and which was a totally

34
00:03:08.200 --> 00:03:13.560
foreign concept to this crazy going crazy mom and he was also stirring in my

35
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:18.280
heart to create some new boundaries going forward to protect and keep safe

36
00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:23.800
some of the people that were closest and most precious to me and help us all to

37
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:31.000
be able to work from a place of rest more better and of course at any place

38
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:35.160
in our life when we are creating new boundaries, healthy boundaries, it can

39
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:40.920
cause turmoil, right? It's a change. It's something new. It looks different and

40
00:03:40.920 --> 00:03:46.280
this indeed was causing that in my life so I actually hired Ashley initially to

41
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:54.200
walk with me through this transition phase in my business and the Lord's words

42
00:03:54.200 --> 00:03:59.160
to me when I created those boundaries, I knew it could create turmoil. His words

43
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:06.440
to me were sit still and see the salvation of the Lord which is of course

44
00:04:06.440 --> 00:04:12.600
working from a place of rest in a sense, isn't it? And I had seen Ashley's video

45
00:04:12.600 --> 00:04:18.519
about rest and heard her thoughts there. I had also been learning from her about

46
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:27.640
what it is like to be seated in spiritual places, to be in Christ and I

47
00:04:27.640 --> 00:04:34.520
remember scheduling a call with her and leaving her a voice message and saying

48
00:04:34.520 --> 00:04:42.840
okay Ashley please detail out to me what it looks like to be in spiritual places.

49
00:04:42.840 --> 00:04:50.600
Detail out to me what it looks like to be to be there living there. What does it

50
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:59.800
look like? Because it better be greater than I ever dreamed possible. Working from a place of rest.

51
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.560
It must be like more powerful than I can even imagine.

52
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:08.240
Otherwise, at this season in my life when there's this turmoil,

53
00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:10.960
things are kind of shaken up.

54
00:05:10.960 --> 00:05:16.720
Otherwise, the cost and the risk to me of working from a place of rest is too great.

55
00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:18.880
And I don't think I actually said that to her,

56
00:05:18.880 --> 00:05:20.400
but that's what I was thinking in my heart.

57
00:05:20.400 --> 00:05:22.720
Unless this is better than I can imagine,

58
00:05:23.760 --> 00:05:27.360
the cost and the risk to me of resting right now, I cannot.

59
00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:32.080
And of course, y'all know the end of the story, right?

60
00:05:32.080 --> 00:05:35.040
How it is truly better than I ever imagined.

61
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:37.760
Working from a place of rest, being in Christ,

62
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:42.480
being in heavenly places where there is no shame and no condemnation.

63
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:45.200
It is better than we ever dreamed, isn't it?

64
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:51.200
But I wanted to share two of my favorite shifts that happened

65
00:05:53.440 --> 00:05:55.760
during my time and my talks with Ashley.

66
00:05:56.320 --> 00:05:58.000
And I just want to say, you know,

67
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:01.760
maybe we talked about things that aren't in all the material here.

68
00:06:01.760 --> 00:06:04.400
And I know there are things in the material here

69
00:06:04.400 --> 00:06:07.600
that we haven't talked about personally, Ashley told me.

70
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:12.880
So I cannot wait to dive in and learn what a lot of y'all have already learned.

71
00:06:12.880 --> 00:06:15.760
But okay, so one of my favorite shifts is that

72
00:06:17.760 --> 00:06:21.120
Ashley was inspiring me.

73
00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:23.680
She said, and she made this phrase at one point.

74
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:26.000
It was just in passing as she was talking.

75
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:31.120
She said, you know, there's this interpersonal stuff going on.

76
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:33.280
God can grow your business without people.

77
00:06:34.320 --> 00:06:37.440
And I jotted that down and I was inspired.

78
00:06:37.440 --> 00:06:43.440
And I said, okay, God, I want to see you grow my business without people.

79
00:06:43.440 --> 00:06:45.840
That would be the craziest thing.

80
00:06:45.840 --> 00:06:47.600
That would be the coolest thing ever.

81
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:52.000
Show me, show me your power.

82
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:52.640
Just do it.

83
00:06:52.640 --> 00:06:54.560
I want to see what it looks like.

84
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:58.240
And would you know, a few days later,

85
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:05.040
some transactions, business transactions dropped into my account, into my world.

86
00:07:06.320 --> 00:07:10.560
They were postdated before Ashley told me.

87
00:07:11.280 --> 00:07:13.840
They were postdated before I asked the Lord,

88
00:07:13.840 --> 00:07:18.640
show me how you can grow a business without even people.

89
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:20.960
And network marketing, right?

90
00:07:20.960 --> 00:07:22.320
It's all about people, right?

91
00:07:22.640 --> 00:07:25.200
And God's like, Cheryl, I can do anything.

92
00:07:25.200 --> 00:07:26.160
Watch me.

93
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:28.240
You arrested me and watch me.

94
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:30.640
And God did this thing before I even asked him,

95
00:07:31.200 --> 00:07:34.720
dropped it into my world just after I asked him.

96
00:07:35.760 --> 00:07:38.720
I cannot even, I can't even elaborate.

97
00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:45.040
What a wow moment that was for me to see God's power working from a place of rest.

98
00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:50.240
The second shift that is tops for me, absolute tops,

99
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:56.000
was this idea of no shame and no condemnation when we are in Christ, right?

100
00:07:56.000 --> 00:08:00.240
Okay, so we're working from a place of rest where, you know, we're thinking about,

101
00:08:00.880 --> 00:08:03.520
you know, if I'm experiencing something good right now,

102
00:08:03.520 --> 00:08:06.080
it's probably because of something good I did in the past.

103
00:08:06.080 --> 00:08:12.160
Kind of that work results, you know, shift that we've been working out of.

104
00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:14.400
But, you know, the kind of that preconceived idea,

105
00:08:14.400 --> 00:08:17.280
I do something and then the result comes.

106
00:08:17.280 --> 00:08:20.320
And in my world of turmoil that I was experiencing,

107
00:08:20.320 --> 00:08:23.680
there was this fear in my heart, you know, this bad thing is happening.

108
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:27.440
Is it some kind of karma?

109
00:08:27.440 --> 00:08:28.640
I hate to use the word karma.

110
00:08:29.200 --> 00:08:30.400
We all know what we're talking about.

111
00:08:30.400 --> 00:08:31.120
So I just use it.

112
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:38.559
Is it some kind of karma or payback from something I did in my past and it's coming?

113
00:08:38.559 --> 00:08:42.960
I have, maybe I, you know, I have to experience it myself.

114
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:46.400
And, you know, good thing, good happens, right?

115
00:08:46.400 --> 00:08:47.360
Bad thing, bad happens.

116
00:08:47.360 --> 00:08:51.200
Kind of this, this mindset that we have probably had for a long time.

117
00:08:51.760 --> 00:08:55.680
And I should say, no, you know, you're seated in Christ.

118
00:08:55.680 --> 00:08:57.040
There is no shame.

119
00:08:57.040 --> 00:08:58.640
There is no condemnation.

120
00:08:59.680 --> 00:09:00.180
No.

121
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:02.960
Whatever happened in the past, no.

122
00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:07.920
Karma, karma, karma is a thing down here.

123
00:09:08.560 --> 00:09:11.120
That, that work and get results is down here.

124
00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:14.880
This is a totally different place up here seated in Christ.

125
00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:19.280
And I cannot even express the load that lifted off my shoulders.

126
00:09:19.280 --> 00:09:23.040
I know I was crying literally when Ashley was telling me this.

127
00:09:23.040 --> 00:09:25.200
I felt this little lift off my heart.

128
00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:25.920
But guess what?

129
00:09:27.040 --> 00:09:32.880
After that talk, every 15 or 20 minutes, just a little tear would come out of my eyes and

130
00:09:32.880 --> 00:09:33.360
roll down.

131
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:34.800
I wasn't choked up.

132
00:09:34.800 --> 00:09:36.080
I wasn't crying.

133
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:36.960
I wasn't upset.

134
00:09:36.960 --> 00:09:37.920
I was so at peace.

135
00:09:39.040 --> 00:09:42.320
But this little tear would just dip down out of my eyes.

136
00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:49.440
You know, for three days, for three days, every few minutes, a little tear would come

137
00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:50.320
and roll out of my eyes.

138
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:51.760
Of course, we know tears.

139
00:09:51.760 --> 00:09:57.840
Scientifically, they contain chemicals and, and things from my body that are a result

140
00:09:57.840 --> 00:09:59.840
of different emotions, different turmoil.

141
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:03.960
different feelings that we're experiencing and my body was not only

142
00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:10.000
spiritually having a load lifted but physically it was letting go of pressure

143
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:15.520
I didn't know I felt and didn't know I had carried with me so so much in my

144
00:10:15.520 --> 00:10:19.440
life that my body was physically releasing it in the form of little tears

145
00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:26.040
for three days that was so amazing to just feel and see my whole world

146
00:10:26.040 --> 00:10:31.720
shifting and being made new so those are my two favorite shifts in the course

147
00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:39.000
and I just had to share this with you being seated in the heavenlies is so

148
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:43.840
great working from a place of rest is so amazing and I just want to thank Ashley

149
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:49.240
again for bringing that truth into our world I know she's walked this journey

150
00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:53.680
personally first in order to be able to take each of us on it so thank you

151
00:10:53.680 --> 00:10:57.560
Ashley for that I'm so excited to be here to journey this with you in a

152
00:10:57.560 --> 00:11:03.680
community and yeah so many good things to come all right y'all thanks for

153
