Over the years, I have been sharing my process on my podcast, and now that I’m building a new business, I’m going to share that process with you as well. Because I have been working towards developing a high degree of intuition, I want to be able to use this in order to build this new business.

Highlights

• Intuition is an inner knowing and how that appears can be different for each person.
• Intuition comes from that part of you that is aware of more of you and your life then you understand.
• You can develop a communication system with that inner part of you. I give an example of how to do that.
• If you want to tune into the expanded parts of yourself, then you have to clear out the channels.
• The more you take care of yourself, the more you can be in touch with your Self.
• The more you are willing to clear out the channels that run through your body-mind, the more accurate will be the intuitive hits that you get.
• At some point, you have to make the decision as to whether you are going to build your business while stressed out or if you’re going to take an easier path.
• You have to make the decision to follow what you’re inner voice suggests.
• Sit still and do nothing for 10 minutes a day. I explain.
• Every intuitive hit will be what you want to be because you have to learn to discriminate between the different types of “messages”. But each message is there to teach you something. Sometimes it’s for you to learn what you’re not.
• This all ties in with what I’ve been calling Conscious Synchronicity which requires that you notice what shows up.
• What you are feeling guided to do probably has a connection to something that’s been in your life before.
• I talk about how I’m using my intuition to build The MetaMind Circle.

Today I talk about something that has begun to really interest me – the inner world of people in leadership positions of all kinds. When thinking or speaking about leaders, we don’t often examine their emotional expression and development, even though their habitual emotions affect all of their decisions.

Highlights

• I talk about how I have developed meaningful relationships with people online.
• People are often taught that there is something wrong with them that needs fixing, and I don’t subscribe to that.
• Feelings that are common among leaders include feeling alone and feeling like an outsider.
• For some leaders, it’s dangerous to let people know what’s really going on inside of you and how you really feel about yourself and your followers.
• This creates a feeling of separation, and we have an inherent need for connection.
• Becoming a leader is sometimes a coping mechanism for dealing with life.
• I think it’s important for leaders to recognize their own deep-seated feelings of aloneness.
• Aloneness often leads people to become members of groups that don’t have the interests of society at heart.
• In order to be a person of peace, you have to find peace within yourself.
• One of the things that interest me is bringing together entrepreneurial leaders who often feel separated so they can learn how to really feel connected on an authentic level.
• If you’re going to learn how to develop empathy, you also have to learn how to set boundaries, so you don’t take responsibility for other people’s problems.

Highlights

• Joyce Marter explains how her own emotional money issues led her to her current profession.
• We talk about how psychologists often have money problems and how Joyce came to see that beliefs about her earning potential were holding her back.
• Do some people come to be psychologists with unreal expectations as to what they can achieve given who they are and how they present themselves?
• Joyce does a lot of personal work and believes that her business success is a direct result of that work.
• The field of psychology is now examining mindfulness. This is leading them away from the pathology of emotions to a more inner direction of awareness.

• Joyce recounts how reaching her breaking point financially taught her to ask for help and learn what she had to learn in order to become successful.
• We hold on to what’s familiar, even if it’s not working.
• Opening yourself to receive is not about receiving money, but about opening up to receiving love.
• If we work on ourselves, it doesn’t just affect our money but rather many aspects of our life.

Today, I’m talking about something very dear to my heart. It’s about the chaos that we are living through and it’s going to get much worse. Although many things are adding to the chaos, there are actions we can take in order to experience inner peace in the midst of the chaos.

Highlights

• One day, when I was in meditation, I heard the following: We are going into a period of great chaos. Many people will leave the planet, and the chaos in the Middle East will get so bad that people will ask, “How could a benevolent God allow this to happen?” People are being trained to be points of light in the midst of this chaos.
• I knew, at that moment, that I was one of the people going through that training.
• There are a lot of opportunities now for us to recognize that these are chaotic times. I list some of those opportunities.
• Our individual response to everything that is going on is a matter of brain science. Our brains are designed to warn us of danger when the outcomes are uncertain.
• Uncertainty causes stress, and stress is a major cause of physical and emotional dis-ease.
• When you make changes and move in a positive direction, that energy affects the whole world.
• You get to decide how you want to be in the midst of the chaos.
• It’s okay if you’re upset about what’s going on, but it helps to find a way to be okay with what is and to decide what actions you want to take.
• You get to decide if you’re willing to learn how to develop inner peace no matter what’s going on.
• In 1788, when the Constitution was ratified, there were only 238,000 people in the entire country.
• People have not been taught that they have the option of choosing how they want to feel.
• One of the best things you can do is to connect to people who were not just like you.
• Ask yourself, do I want to continue living and feeling the way I do now?
• I believe that there is a part of you that sees the bigger picture and will guide you to what you need to live a life that allows you to express yourself.
• Playing “ain’t it awful” does not lead to a comfortable life.
• If you believe that energy matters, then take a look at the energy you are generating.
• You have the power to create the life you want, but it doesn’t happen by just doing affirmations. Action is the key.
