Maureen Spielman:

in the episode. Hello, and welcome back to mystical

Maureen Spielman:

sisterhood. This is your host, Maureen Spielman. And today, it

Maureen Spielman:

is my distinct pleasure to be sitting with Stephanie LeFevre,

Maureen Spielman:

who happens to be less than a mile away from me in her own

Maureen Spielman:

home and my community. And we met a few years ago, when you

Maureen Spielman:

move to town, Stephanie is a happiness and mindset coach, she

Maureen Spielman:

has been in the business. And well, I've got some questions

Maureen Spielman:

about that. Longer than most coaches, you know, she, I'm

Maureen Spielman:

thinking that Stephanie really got into the field before it was

Maureen Spielman:

this really blossoming field. So you've seen it as you've gone

Maureen Spielman:

along. In your own practice, you've coached individuals, and

Maureen Spielman:

groups, all over the world. You've spoken on some really big

Maureen Spielman:

stages, and you've written a book. And that is, you are a

Maureen Spielman:

badass mom, which is just a really great title. You're the

Maureen Spielman:

creator of many, many different groups, which we can talk about

Maureen Spielman:

too. But I said to you, when we were setting the intention that

Maureen Spielman:

you're a person that I look to, that is spreading your messages

Maureen Spielman:

and your purpose and your work in the world. And you're doing

Maureen Spielman:

the commitment to your own practices in your daily life,

Maureen Spielman:

probably pretty much moment by moment. And so let's just jump

Maureen Spielman:

in there. Welcome. And I had a question about, you know, how

Maureen Spielman:

you first got into the coaching industry before it was like it

Maureen Spielman:

is now but I don't know, where does it feel right for you to

Maureen Spielman:

start? Stephanie? Yeah,

Steffani LeFevour:

um, yeah, I guess I got into the coaching

Steffani LeFevour:

industry through my own life experience, and through my

Steffani LeFevour:

desire to figure life out, you know, and I'm a natural person

Steffani LeFevour:

that like, love to teach what I was learning. So in my 20s, when

Steffani LeFevour:

I first discovered personal growth and self expansion, and

Steffani LeFevour:

like A Course in Miracles and Tao ism, and Wayne Dyer, and all

Steffani LeFevour:

of that goodness that was out there, I was like consuming it,

Steffani LeFevour:

and had to teach it in order to bring it to another level. You

Steffani LeFevour:

know, learn and teach and learn and then teach, so I wasn't As a

Steffani LeFevour:

coach back then, but I was coaching anyone that would

Steffani LeFevour:

listen. And it's so funny because I saw my brother sent me

Steffani LeFevour:

a card that I wrote to him when he graduated high school. So I

Steffani LeFevour:

was like, a sophomore in college, and the card that I

Steffani LeFevour:

wrote to him, so I must have been 20. Like, I was young, when

Steffani LeFevour:

I went to college, I must have been 20 at the time, and the

Steffani LeFevour:

card I wrote to him was like, you know, believe in yourself,

Steffani LeFevour:

like you can be and do and have anything you want in life. And

Steffani LeFevour:

this step of graduating high school, like, I'm so proud of

Steffani LeFevour:

you, and you are meant for great things. And you and I was

Steffani LeFevour:

reading it going, Oh, my God, I was 20. It was what I was just

Steffani LeFevour:

launching into this stuff. But I know that that was there, like

Steffani LeFevour:

that rock was there. And I was trying to like discover it and

Steffani LeFevour:

figure it out and break it open and play with it. But like that

Steffani LeFevour:

was there. I was shocked to see that. But I think the people

Steffani LeFevour:

closest to me, are surprised because that seed was always

Steffani LeFevour:

planted. Hmm.

Maureen Spielman:

I love that. You know, I noticed on your

Maureen Spielman:

website, too, that you said something like, I've always been

Maureen Spielman:

a happiness coach or something a lot. What did you mean by that?

Maureen Spielman:

Yeah, I

Unknown:

mean, that's similar to what I was just saying, like,

Unknown:

I've always been a happiness coach, that seed was always

Unknown:

planted and much to my family or best friends dismay, because,

Unknown:

you know, they'd be like, Oh, here she comes again. You know,

Unknown:

like, I say, my, you know, everyone agrees that I've always

Unknown:

been a happiness coach, except maybe my sisters, but they're my

Unknown:

best clients. Because I think I was always striving to find out

Unknown:

what happiness was for myself, you know, like, what does it

Unknown:

look like? So I was hiking up a mountain of happiness, and

Unknown:

coaching other people along the way, like, you don't come to

Unknown:

happiness coaching, by having a perfectly happy life, from the

Unknown:

habits coaching, because you've endured a lot, you've been

Unknown:

through a lot of trauma, you've experienced a lot of hardship.

Unknown:

And so you've hiked up a really grueling mountain of have that's

Unknown:

really steep that's got a lot of wind and hail, and it's dark,

Unknown:

and you're alone a lot. And that's how you get up the

Unknown:

mountain. Because you've had to, you've got lost along the way,

Unknown:

too. Yeah.

Maureen Spielman:

And I think that's a big reason people are

Maureen Spielman:

attracted to you, because you're always telling that the more

Maureen Spielman:

vulnerable side of things, the real side of life, alongside the

Maureen Spielman:

messages of you really can have it all. And so I hear you saying

Maureen Spielman:

that where you came from, and the experiences you had when you

Maureen Spielman:

were younger, were hard. And it was really pulling yourself from

Maureen Spielman:

those places and learning new ways, new tools to implement. Do

Maureen Spielman:

you just hit us with yourself? So you could I want to feel a

Maureen Spielman:

different way.

Unknown:

Yeah, I mean, you're so right, you can have it all. Even

Unknown:

coming from a broken family, you can have it all with a father

Unknown:

who's an addict, you can have it all with a negative husband, you

Unknown:

can have all with, you know, kids going through challenges,

Unknown:

you can have it all with no money, like you can figure it

Unknown:

out, even amongst the big hard challenges in life. Yes, yeah.

Unknown:

And I appreciate when any of my mentors or coaches are not only

Unknown:

very real about life challenges, but show me how to get to the

Unknown:

other side of them, but also apply them to right now. Like, I

Unknown:

don't want any coaches that like don't have any struggles in

Unknown:

life. Yeah, because life still gonna happen, you know, are

Unknown:

still going to have a hard time at school, we're still going to

Unknown:

have a neighbor that gets mad at us for parking our car the wrong

Unknown:

way. We're still going to have Yeah, beaut among in laws or

Unknown:

something, right. Yeah, that's life, like we signed up for it.

Unknown:

So I'm talking about all of that, because I'm not trying to

Unknown:

live like without any of that. I'm trying to embrace it all,

Unknown:

like, love it all, by even the gifts in it all. And to a point

Unknown:

where you're like, Bring it on. Yeah. Yeah. Saying yes. Can be

Unknown:

ready for and pull out my tools and use. Because yeah, I think

Unknown:

my proudest thing is like creating for myself, the toolkit

Unknown:

that I need in order to hike around and keeping those tools

Unknown:

sharp, and like you said, using them every day in different

Unknown:

ways. Oh, there was a board meeting about schools and the

Unknown:

schools are closing, what tools do I have for that, you know,

Unknown:

oh, the teacher that like really doesn't get my kid and it's

Unknown:

creating a lot of hard times. What's my tool for that? Oh,

Unknown:

husband's really worried about money and he's spiraling out of

Unknown:

control. What's my tool for that? Right? Oh, I'm feeling

Unknown:

really overwhelmed running a business and managing my

Unknown:

household. What's my tool for that? that like the toolkit is,

Unknown:

the really powerful thing is like having that foundation of a

Unknown:

tool and having it sharp and ready.

Maureen Spielman:

Because, yeah, you can't find

Unknown:

a tool and use it once and expect to be good at it. You

Unknown:

know, you don't learn how to play the guitar one day and be

Unknown:

expect to be good at it. Now, after 100 days of playing guitar

Unknown:

a lot better you learn a language and speak one word and

Unknown:

expect to be good at it. After 100 days of practicing the

Unknown:

language, you'll be good. So using that toolkit all the time

Unknown:

keeping all these things sharp, yeah, but really, really helps

Unknown:

you to get challenged solution challenge solution challenge

Unknown:

solution, like getting that as small as possible. I thought of

Unknown:

it one time was sharing with my the ladies in my inner circle,

Unknown:

like it's the game of Chutes and Ladders, you know, if you're my

Unknown:

age, you get the game of Chutes and Ladders. And you're not

Unknown:

trying to have you know, no ladders, no climbing up, no work

Unknown:

and only shoots. You want the ladders and the shoots to be

Unknown:

shorter and shorter and shorter. So that when you fall down, you

Unknown:

can climb back up quick. You can climb back up quick. So yeah,

Unknown:

well, ladders. Yeah,

Maureen Spielman:

I love what you're saying it's so valuable,

Maureen Spielman:

because what it reminds me of is how we really get no training

Maureen Spielman:

when we're young. So we're, we're trained, we're conditioned

Maureen Spielman:

to know that if we study the Spanish for 100 days, we will

Maureen Spielman:

achieve it but no one's telling us. There's this whole area,

Maureen Spielman:

which is really most of our lives, that we there are things

Maureen Spielman:

out there we can do which are being uncovered more and more

Maureen Spielman:

every day. But that they're there for us to practice and

Maureen Spielman:

use. And I think your point to saying it like it is like

Maureen Spielman:

Stephanie saying, Oh, I was triggered in traffic. And then

Maureen Spielman:

what did I do? It's not like you're sitting on a mountaintop

Maureen Spielman:

like what the you know, Namaste like, oh, no, you get someone

Maureen Spielman:

cut you off, or you know, something didn't happen the way

Maureen Spielman:

you thought it was gonna go. So there's so many lessons in this.

Maureen Spielman:

But I think that that's a big takeaway is, hey, we're not

Maureen Spielman:

expected to know this at all. So I am when I was preparing just

Maureen Spielman:

for today and thinking about, you know, looking at your body

Maureen Spielman:

of work, and going further back and thinking about those authors

Maureen Spielman:

that lit you up at first. That's that's how it sort of begins,

Maureen Spielman:

right? And someone's got to be the first person to light that

Maureen Spielman:

fire. And even if it's saying, This is how I was triggered last

Maureen Spielman:

week, and someone says, What do you say, you know, are saying

Maureen Spielman:

the universe really supported me? And someone said, What do

Maureen Spielman:

you say, you know, it really, that's how it begins? So

Unknown:

yeah, and usually in small, incremental changes of

Unknown:

that of what you say, would you say and like leaning into that,

Unknown:

because it's you. It's not like I was trying to I'm writing my

Unknown:

second book right now. And I was trying to pinpoint, like, the

Unknown:

hero's journey, like the moment when and like, I can say, Oh, it

Unknown:

was reading a return to love by Marianne Williamson in 1992, is

Unknown:

what really opened me up to all this, but it wasn't like, oh,

Unknown:

the door was closed, and then it was open. You know, it was like

Unknown:

that book, and then that book, and then that little self

Unknown:

acceptance, and then that little ceremony and then that led to

Unknown:

that book, and then it led to that, you know, meeting with

Unknown:

more people that were into that. Yep, one degree shift after one

Unknown:

degree shift after one degree shift. And you start

Unknown:

experiencing a completely different trajectory. Right?

Unknown:

Yeah. But um, but yeah, it's all of those little ones you say?

Unknown:

And oh, I heard that. I heard that three times. So now I'm

Unknown:

going to follow that. Yeah.

Maureen Spielman:

Yep. The i i know there's a themes that are

Maureen Spielman:

your guiding who would you say? Have been your biggest teachers?

Unknown:

Um, I would say Neale Donald Walsch. And his books

Unknown:

have conversations with God. And I've worked with him many times.

Unknown:

Now. I was on a board with him and he is definitely like,

Unknown:

resonates with my soul. And

Maureen Spielman:

yeah, I was gonna say what was so profound

Maureen Spielman:

about those books? Well,

Unknown:

it's funny, I had a lot of resistance to them before I

Unknown:

first read them in my like, late 20s Because they had the word

Unknown:

God in them, and I wasn't religious, and I was very anti

Unknown:

religion. And then the first time I heard them, I listened to

Unknown:

it on cassette tape. A friend loaned him to me that tape on my

Unknown:

walk and then I was flying to Colorado to visit a friend and I

Unknown:

press play, and everything that it said in conversations with

Unknown:

God book one about spirituality, and about it's nondenominational

Unknown:

and about like our souls journey. I was going Yes. Oh my

Unknown:

gosh, yes. So it just so resonated with my soul. Well,

Unknown:

I've never heard anything like that in church or religion or

Unknown:

anywhere from anyone until I listen to that

Maureen Spielman:

cassette. Well, I'm going to insert

Maureen Spielman:

something before you go to your next teacher, because when I

Maureen Spielman:

went through my health journey, that's what I call it five years

Maureen Spielman:

ago, you gave me Conversations with God. And I was still at

Maureen Spielman:

that point. My relationship with God, my religion, what I had

Maureen Spielman:

grown up with, I had largely put Catholicism to the side, but me

Maureen Spielman:

and that word, God, were not really jiving, you know. So I, I

Maureen Spielman:

looked at it, and like you said, I didn't really get it. It

Maureen Spielman:

couldn't translate for me. So recently, and this is what I

Maureen Spielman:

love about all these books, because I tend to pick them up

Maureen Spielman:

too. And I'll pick them up. Two weeks, two months, two years

Maureen Spielman:

later, I'll be like, I read this, and it will speak to my

Maureen Spielman:

heart and soul again. So recently, my son was moving into

Maureen Spielman:

an apartment up in Madison, and my dad a few years back had

Maureen Spielman:

given us two shorter bookcases and I said, Hey, Ben, do you

Maureen Spielman:

want to take one of these bookcases? Sure, Mom. And it was

Maureen Spielman:

down here in the basement. And I took the books off it and

Maureen Spielman:

conversations with God, like, flies out, implies out and I

Maureen Spielman:

said, Oh, and because I've healed my relationship with the

Maureen Spielman:

word God. And no longer Do I see any of those really words in a

Maureen Spielman:

dualistic sense anymore. It's more about oneness. So then I

Maureen Spielman:

could read it now. Really, it's more it's probably five years

Maureen Spielman:

later. So thank you. Oh, isn't such a good example of literally

Maureen Spielman:

a book flying off now?

Unknown:

Yeah. That's so funny. I don't even remember giving you

Unknown:

that book. Yes. Yes. Was that book one? Or was it I think,

Maureen Spielman:

I think it was a different one.

Unknown:

It might be here, it was probably what God wants or

Unknown:

the one about

Maureen Spielman:

me, this one back here is home with God, and

Maureen Spielman:

a light and a light. It's right here. Yeah. So but that was that

Maureen Spielman:

seed, but that was also there for me to then this many years

Maureen Spielman:

later, to serve. Because I remember my good friend Alicia

Maureen Spielman:

asking me in the Akashic Records class, it was the same question.

Maureen Spielman:

What's your relationship with God? Higher power source,

Maureen Spielman:

whatever you call it, and I'm like, I don't have any. And so

Maureen Spielman:

you know, it's like to be compassionate when any of us and

Maureen Spielman:

your students and you know, people I coach, when, when a

Maureen Spielman:

question is posed, and you don't yet have the answer. That's

Maureen Spielman:

okay. That's yeah, it's where you are. That's perfectly where

Maureen Spielman:

you are. So it's so good. Yeah, beautiful.

Unknown:

I had with Eckhart Tolle his work when it was first

Unknown:

introduced to me, I was like, on cassette tape back then, when I

Unknown:

first I was like, he talks so slow. How anybody understand

Unknown:

this, it makes no sense. What is he talking about? And later

Unknown:

coming to it, it was like dropped in downloaded, loved at

Unknown:

all. And it was the same book, you know, but years later, just

Unknown:

really resonated. Yeah, yeah.

Maureen Spielman:

I love that. So and then, who else would you

Maureen Spielman:

say?

Unknown:

Well, Byron, Katie is definitely one of the biggest

Unknown:

teachers and mentors, because I found her work 20 years ago and

Unknown:

got so it so taught me how to turn my thoughts around. It's

Unknown:

like, really psychoanalysis like, you can look at your

Unknown:

thoughts and you can work on it and change your thinking, change

Unknown:

your perspective and change your reality just from looking at

Unknown:

thought in such a powerful and profound way. So I went down the

Unknown:

rabbit hole, and I got trained as a facilitator in that. So I

Unknown:

was like, this can do this for me. I want to go as deep into it

Unknown:

as I can, and be able to help other people with it. So her

Unknown:

work is like the work for me. I love it.

Maureen Spielman:

I love it. Yeah. Yeah,

Unknown:

I love Marianne Williamson. And her

Unknown:

interpretations of A Course in Miracles and her first book are

Unknown:

returned to love. I just was the first book that ever that taught

Unknown:

me about love and forgiveness and to look at life from more of

Unknown:

a soul perspective. It was like a huge awakening for me because

Unknown:

I was like, what people are talking about this people are

Unknown:

doing this activism. And I really love Mike Dooley, because

Unknown:

he was my first sort of law of attraction teacher, coach,

Unknown:

Coach, like each of those people I've studied under and you know,

Unknown:

met and done work with personally they're not just

Unknown:

authors in my life, but authors. Authors in your life can do

Unknown:

that. But I developed even a closer more personal

Unknown:

relationship with their work than just their books, but yeah,

Unknown:

love them. Okay.

Maureen Spielman:

So then as you were going along your journey,

Maureen Spielman:

and kind of like getting into a lot of the work that you do, and

Maureen Spielman:

provide to people, okay, so this idea that our thoughts become

Maureen Spielman:

things, can we just start there and talk about our thoughts as

Maureen Spielman:

vibrations? And how, like, what is the kind of the sciency? Or

Maureen Spielman:

the foundation of the thought that we create our reality with

Maureen Spielman:

our thoughts?

Unknown:

I mean, quantum physics can be studied and says that

Unknown:

what you focus on you create more of, you know, in science,

Unknown:

there's the observer effect, what the observer is thinking

Unknown:

and expecting, most likely that observer creates. So, you know,

Unknown:

science backs. Spirituality now more than ever before, right?

Unknown:

And, yes, the fact that it's not on the cover of every newspaper

Unknown:

and magazine is shocking to me, because it is so proven that are

Unknown:

not just our thoughts, our thoughts, our feelings, our

Unknown:

beliefs, our stories, all of those things attract and create

Unknown:

more. So our thoughts create a reality, you know? Yeah, in its

Unknown:

basic form, it is what we think about, we place orders for we,

Unknown:

when we think we energetically align with the things that we're

Unknown:

thinking. And so in my world of this, and in my interpretation

Unknown:

of this, our thought puts out an order and our feelings attracted

Unknown:

back in. Okay, that's so you know, yes, we are, we are

Unknown:

thinking and feeling and thinking and feeling. And that

Unknown:

can get confused because I was just at tennis the other day,

Unknown:

and this girl on my tennis team said, Okay, Stephanie, like, I

Unknown:

need your, I need your coaching help. And I was like, oh, yeah,

Unknown:

what and we were just like running around doing a drill.

Unknown:

And she goes, You know, I needed to find a way to manifest, you

Unknown:

know, some more wins in my game, like, and I didn't know this,

Unknown:

but she'd had I sort of knew, but I didn't know the whole hit.

Unknown:

But she'd had a series of losses, right. And so I said,

Unknown:

Okay, what you know, like, I love it. When people ask me

Unknown:

advice, you know, I'm like, okay, great. What, what can I

Unknown:

do? And she was like, she was like, I need your coaching

Unknown:

around, you know, my tennis game. And I said, well, in its

Unknown:

simplest form, what you bring to your game, you'll get out of

Unknown:

your game. Right? And she goes, okay, yeah, yeah. And then she

Unknown:

goes, but, you know, I have a winning mindset. And I was like,

Unknown:

Oh, yes, yes. Here's the thing about our thoughts become

Unknown:

things. You can't just have a winning mindset. You can't just

Unknown:

think your way out of your feelings and your story, your

Unknown:

story, if the story that you're bringing is I lose, no matter

Unknown:

what happens, I lose. Yeah, have a winning mindset. You can't out

Unknown:

mindset, your story. So that's why that's that the it's yes,

Unknown:

all the things you thoughts, your words, your stories, your

Unknown:

beliefs, all of that creates, and we can't just out think

Unknown:

something thinking helps, you know, having a winning mindset

Unknown:

helps but but what I helped her get to, in a very simple

Unknown:

conversation, but what I was then I was thinking about this

Unknown:

later, and I was like teaching it to my inner circle ladies

Unknown:

afterwards going, Hey, this is a great thing that applied today

Unknown:

to tennis and here's how you can apply it to life. Um, you know,

Unknown:

what you what you need to do there is you got to change your

Unknown:

story. Yeah. So instead of just I think we oversimplify

Unknown:

manifesting in practice, when we go our thoughts become things

Unknown:

because she's like, my thoughts are on winning. I go, and I

Unknown:

think I'm gonna win. But the story that she's carrying with

Unknown:

her to that game is all the times I've lost Holy shit, it

Unknown:

better not happen again. I've lost a lot of lots and lots. I

Unknown:

have six loss of the no matter what court I play on, even if I

Unknown:

play people who I'm better than I still lose, you're carrying

Unknown:

that story. You can't out think it. So what I teach is you gotta

Unknown:

change that story. Okay, so what I said to her when she was like,

Unknown:

Oh, I have a winning mindset. And I was like, oh, okay, you

Unknown:

have a winning mindset. But your story is, I keep losing. I said,

Unknown:

what you got to do is you got to focus on your wins. So it's easy

Unknown:

in tennis, you know, the game and then set and then match,

Unknown:

right? So how many games did you win? How many sets Did you win?

Unknown:

How many points did you win yourself? How many shots did you

Unknown:

take? There? were awesome. Focus on that. I couldn't get you to

Unknown:

win more games. Because right now you're focusing on your

Unknown:

losses, even though there's all these wins, you're voting on

Unknown:

your losses. So you're bringing losses to the game. Yeah, it

Unknown:

feels like it's, yeah, it feels like it's to do

Maureen Spielman:

with the energy of it too. I'm, I'm

Maureen Spielman:

thinking about how you had put, like the top three things people

Maureen Spielman:

do to get in their way of manifesting. They say like, but

Maureen Spielman:

I, you know, I'm trying to manifest or I, I'm doing it, I'm

Maureen Spielman:

doing all the things. And the one that stood out to me was

Maureen Spielman:

complaining. And tell me about complaining. And

Unknown:

I mean, it is, if there's no one thing that's

Unknown:

stopping people from getting what they want, it's

Unknown:

complaining, because complaining has the energy of lack. It's a

Unknown:

thought about what you don't want. It has an energy that you

Unknown:

don't want, it doesn't align you with what you want, it aligns

Unknown:

you with what you don't want. Yeah. So every time we can play

Unknown:

an even if it's just, we're complaining, because it's, it's

Unknown:

the more comfortable thing to do, oh, the weather on

Unknown:

Halloween, it was so rainy, or whatever, we're in a vibration,

Unknown:

and alignment with things that we don't want. So stopping

Unknown:

complaining is a number one thing because we can't, you

Unknown:

know, out manifest our complaints, we got us

Maureen Spielman:

first. So I'm thinking of when we're in that

Maureen Spielman:

complaining role, there's two parts that come to me that it is

Maureen Spielman:

the victim mentality that life is happening to you and not for

Maureen Spielman:

you. But also there's that component of it, when someone is

Maureen Spielman:

holding the energy, let's just call it of complaining. It's

Maureen Spielman:

also the energy of wanting to process something. So what do

Maureen Spielman:

you tell to your clients that are how to like almost like,

Maureen Spielman:

either shift that energy or be with themselves and be with it

Maureen Spielman:

in a different way? Because I also think, habits we have,

Maureen Spielman:

whether it's you know, for me when I've had to break is just

Maureen Spielman:

spending too much time on the phone that gets in the way of my

Maureen Spielman:

doing my work. It but that's a habit, right? And I told myself

Maureen Spielman:

for a long time, Oh, you do it, you're doing it again, you're

Maureen Spielman:

doing it again, you're doing it again. So it was very lack

Maureen Spielman:

based. Making progress in it, by the way. But you know, that

Maureen Spielman:

example of just needing to go in and kind of change that like,

Maureen Spielman:

but I lost my train of thought a little bit there.

Unknown:

Right about complaining, what what what

Unknown:

people say when they say like, but I need to vent, right, yeah,

Unknown:

right, right. Yeah. Okay, but I need to vent, and it's healthy

Unknown:

to vent, and it's healthy to feel all my feeling well, and

Unknown:

sometimes I'm like, well vent away if you want more of those

Unknown:

things. But if you don't want more of those things, then don't

Unknown:

vent. Yes. And of course, the if you can't not, then the key is

Unknown:

keep it brief, very, very brief, as minimal as you can, and don't

Unknown:

give it a lot of emotion. So I do a Complaint Free challenge at

Unknown:

the beginning of all of my courses and training, because

Unknown:

it's the number one thing that we want to turn around in order

Unknown:

to start manifesting. And so during those Complaint Free

Unknown:

challenges we focus on there's always a way to vent or to state

Unknown:

something that is an observation or a fact, but not a complaint.

Unknown:

You know, if I have my kid at school, and he's having a really

Unknown:

hard time with a teacher, and I want to say to the teacher, I

Unknown:

feel like you're being extra hard on him. There's a way to do

Unknown:

that articulately without a complaint. If I'm like, How dare

Unknown:

you? You are so awful at this, like, that's a complaint, right?

Unknown:

I'm using exaggerated words, I'm getting into a feeling of

Unknown:

emotion of it. That's what we want to avoid. Yeah, but not

Unknown:

complaining doesn't mean that we just have to be a doormat and

Unknown:

like the sit around and take stuff we can be moderating. You

Unknown:

can say, You know what, um, I you know, to that teacher, I

Unknown:

feel like you're being hard on him. That's not a complaint.

Unknown:

That's an observation. It looks like to me in my experience,

Unknown:

that you're being hard on him. So what can we do in order to

Unknown:

improve this relationship? That's not a complaint. Like

Unknown:

people always end up saying like, yes, but if someone was

Unknown:

reading you, you can go no, no, you can be articulate. You can.

Unknown:

You can even be angry and not complain. You can say, this

Unknown:

makes me really upset if you're purposeful and articulate.

Unknown:

That's different than a complaint. A complaint has

Unknown:

motion a complaint has has a fixed mindset, you know, a

Unknown:

complaint does have a solution focus. So yes, we can change it

Unknown:

to be an observation or a statement or a fact is Have a

Unknown:

complaint. And if you must complain, you keep it really

Unknown:

brief. Oh, I'm so overwhelmed right now. lately. I'm so

Unknown:

overwhelmed. Oh my god. Okay. Let me shake that off. And let

Unknown:

me climb back up. And let me focus on what I do want. Because

Unknown:

brevity is is is magic when it comes to that kind of stuff

Unknown:

because we're never going to not complain, we're never going to

Unknown:

not have many pity party. We're never going to not go oh my god,

Unknown:

my husband is so negative. How is he even? How did I attract

Unknown:

this guy? We might still go there. But our the point and

Unknown:

goal is to keep it as brief as possible. Focusing on it,

Unknown:

because I don't want more of it. In order to the universe than

Unknown:

the order the universe goes, What's that your husband's

Unknown:

negative? Okay, cue the negative husband. Make sure that

Unknown:

everything she sees its own right. If he is Wait, she just

Unknown:

did it again. Make it bigger. Make it bigger. Make it before

Unknown:

working afterwards? Yes. Okay. She just said it again. Made

Unknown:

sure that he calls her and text her negative things. That's what

Unknown:

it's doing.

Maureen Spielman:

So it's a mirror. It's a it's it's an

Maureen Spielman:

order?

Unknown:

Yes. It's an order that is immediately fulfilled.

Maureen Spielman:

Oh my gosh. It makes us laugh. Right. And but

Maureen Spielman:

would wear it but I'm hearing you saying and it moves someone

Maureen Spielman:

from disempowered to empowered. So the brevity, the brevity is

Maureen Spielman:

good.

Unknown:

I like that. The friend who was you know, with the

Unknown:

tennis matches, do the match, make sure she loses like, yeah,

Unknown:

there's there's a story because I was talking to another friend

Unknown:

about there was a story that was like, oh, and I played with her

Unknown:

once. And it was like, we lost first match. And then we won the

Unknown:

second match. And then like something happened, where

Unknown:

literally, they got interrupted in the middle of the game that

Unknown:

they were up and they ended up losing like it was like the

Unknown:

universe conspired to make her lose. No, right. Like, that's

Unknown:

how powerful we are. That's how strong the universe listens to

Unknown:

our orders. It gets instantly delivered in a very powerful

Unknown:

way. So be careful what you complain about. Be careful what

Unknown:

you wish for, because it's all placing orders, right?

Maureen Spielman:

Mm hmm. And it's and to give ourselves

Maureen Spielman:

compassion, because it's all a retraining of, yeah, it's our

Maureen Spielman:

essential nature. We were born this way, and then trained away

Maureen Spielman:

from it. So it's remembering and relearning. Yeah,

Unknown:

and it's good to remember that we have like a

Unknown:

negativity bias. We are, we are wired for negativity. I hate

Unknown:

knowing that I but it's the facts. Like when I would, you

Unknown:

know, learn that and read books on that. I go, No, no, no, no, I

Unknown:

want it to be different. I want us to be wired for happiness. I

Unknown:

want us to be wired for positivity. But we're not

Unknown:

because, you know, we have this fight or flight brain and we're

Unknown:

wired to keep ourselves safe and to protect and to be suspicious

Unknown:

and to you know, be aware. And so we are wired for negativity,

Unknown:

we have to rewire ourselves for positivity, it takes work takes

Unknown:

tool. It takes consistency, it takes new habits. So I do find

Unknown:

some empowerment in that too, to go, oh, okay, I'm not broken.

Unknown:

You know, we are all this way. And yet, I am empowered to

Unknown:

change that. We have neuroplasticity, we can change

Unknown:

that wiring. But to know that, oh, this is how the computer is

Unknown:

hardwired? Okay, well, I can rewire the computer and I can

Unknown:

put in all this software, all these tools to make the

Unknown:

hardwiring different. That's good to know. And empowering.

Unknown:

Like you said,

Maureen Spielman:

Yeah. And that how we are also conditioned to

Maureen Spielman:

be hard on ourselves. What do you say to the person who's

Maureen Spielman:

like, got it? Got it? Because I think that's the nature of

Maureen Spielman:

learning, we learn something we get excited about it, we start

Maureen Spielman:

to practice it, we forget. And so is that is that just as

Maureen Spielman:

simple like, just pick it, give yourself that, okay, that's

Maureen Spielman:

where you are, pick yourself back up again, begin again. And

Maureen Spielman:

so, like that

Unknown:

you can't expect to play the guitar once every three

Unknown:

weeks, and then expect to be good at the guitar. I mean, it's

Unknown:

consistency is key in learning. You know, when we pick up these

Unknown:

personal growth books, or we take a course or we do a five

Unknown:

day challenge, it really comes down to how can I consistently,

Unknown:

you know, embed this into my everyday life? Yeah, and for me,

Unknown:

that takes, you know, the tools and the community and

Unknown:

accountability. I mean, accountability is how I have

Unknown:

achieved everything that I've ever desired. And accountability

Unknown:

doesn't have to look like getting a happiness coach or

Unknown:

joining a mastermind. It can look like having the right app

Unknown:

on your phone. That helps you consistent Do you have gratitude

Unknown:

every morning, that can be you know, the right online coach who

Unknown:

gets you working out every day? You know, accountability is the

Unknown:

key because we're so wired for the other thing, we can't expect

Unknown:

ourselves to always have the, you know, self discipline and

Unknown:

self motivation to do it all on our own. We all have those

Unknown:

intentions, right? We're like, Okay, I want to, I heard about

Unknown:

this new green juice, and I want to make it every morning, right?

Unknown:

Well, you got to go out, you got to buy the stuff, you got to get

Unknown:

the green juicing machine. But then you also have to work in

Unknown:

the new daily habits of how you're going to prioritize that

Unknown:

and make it an everyday thing. That takes a lot more work.

Maureen Spielman:

Yeah, accountability is key. And it's

Maureen Spielman:

possible. You know, I think that that's why I always see on your

Maureen Spielman:

Instagram, it's like the daily dose, you say, and it's kind of

Maureen Spielman:

like the things that keep you grounded on track. forward

Maureen Spielman:

moving, able to support yourself, support your kids

Maureen Spielman:

support women, everything. Yes, yes. Yeah, daily dose

Unknown:

of the tools, daily doses of the things that light

Unknown:

you up daily doses of reminding you of who you are, and your

Unknown:

power, daily doses of confidence, you know, daily

Unknown:

doses of challenge, because it creates change. Yeah, daily

Unknown:

doses is sharpening your tools.

Maureen Spielman:

I would say to when you when women begin to

Maureen Spielman:

learn when they're in your groups, or I don't even know if

Maureen Spielman:

you individually coach much anymore. But is it just so

Maureen Spielman:

beautiful to see the blossoming and then the opening and

Maureen Spielman:

transformation that occurs right before your eyes?

Unknown:

Yeah, it's why I do this, because I'm in it for the

Unknown:

transformation. I, you know, like, you don't get into this

Unknown:

work for the money, you don't get into this work for the

Unknown:

recognition, like you're in it for the transformation, like for

Unknown:

the women that go, oh, wow, like, my relationship is easier.

Unknown:

And I go, I would have responded years ago, like this, and now

Unknown:

I'm responding like this. And I'm teaching it to my friend,

Unknown:

and my family is noticing that I'm a different person. And, you

Unknown:

know, I used to create so much drama, and I used to complain,

Unknown:

and I and I don't even attract that anymore. And and now I'm

Unknown:

winning at tennis, I mean, such a big array of the how we

Unknown:

transform, when we start doing this work, yes, we start

Unknown:

manifesting our lives consciously, to be shaped about

Unknown:

what we want, right? We create a new roadmap, and we start going

Unknown:

down that road, it is beautiful and fascinating. And I have so

Unknown:

many stories of like, my clients over the years, like manifesting

Unknown:

really cool things. And you know, from like, one of my

Unknown:

clients who was a pilot, and she wanted to ultimately take

Unknown:

helicopter lesson training, helicopter flying lessons and,

Unknown:

and buyer on helicopter, and she put it on a vision board and one

Unknown:

of my masterminds and like, a year and a half later, she's

Unknown:

like, I just bought the helicopter that was on my

Unknown:

vision, like, some really tangible fun things like that.

Unknown:

And like I manifested a lake house, and to the things that

Unknown:

are like, my relationship was on the verge of divorce, and we've

Unknown:

never been in a better place. Or, you know, I look at my

Unknown:

children in a different way than ever before. Because, you know,

Unknown:

I used to be controlling and they used to trigger me and now

Unknown:

I just radically accept them for who they are. And I'm just such

Unknown:

a more grateful and loving mom, you know, those things aren't as

Unknown:

measurable. They're not like a big tangible thing, but they're

Unknown:

everything. When it comes to our life experience.

Maureen Spielman:

The the quality i Well, the fact that

Maureen Spielman:

you I was going to mention named your book, you are a badass mom.

Maureen Spielman:

And it's funny. I remember looking at some of your

Maureen Spielman:

material, like a while back, and I think I saw a video of you and

Maureen Spielman:

your husband with Dr. Shefali. Is that right? Was it like it

Maureen Spielman:

was some roundtable discussion? Like class with Oprah. Okay.

Maureen Spielman:

Yeah. And so then many years ago, you then look towards your

Maureen Spielman:

parenting, and I was, Oh, so you're raising your kids in this

Maureen Spielman:

home that's infused with a lot of consciousness. And how does

Maureen Spielman:

that go when you're raising two? You've got

Unknown:

two teens now. Yeah, 12 and 15. Yeah,

Maureen Spielman:

you see them. I mean, I know with my younger

Maureen Spielman:

son. Now, it's like all these messages are laid out on the

Maureen Spielman:

table, and he's listening, and everything we do is filled With

Maureen Spielman:

more intention than ever, so I think it's a beautiful message

Maureen Spielman:

to bring to the listeners today just about our children, and

Maureen Spielman:

where they are really needing this. And I don't know, if

Maureen Spielman:

you're seeing any changes within the schools these days, or

Unknown:

I wish I was seeing more. You know, we're raising

Unknown:

our kids with both, I would say, he both ends of the spectrum,

Unknown:

because my husband is so radically different than me. And

Unknown:

not that I'm better. And he's worse, we're not he has a very

Unknown:

different, more realistic, more hard knocks view on life. And I

Unknown:

have a much more, you know, open hearted, up level, limitless

Unknown:

spiritual perspective, right. And so what I think is so

Unknown:

beautiful is my kids get to see that, and they get to choose

Unknown:

where they want to fall along that spectrum. You know, I mean,

Unknown:

imagine only giving them this side, I think that'd be

Unknown:

beautiful. But that's their only giving them this side, my

Unknown:

husband think that's what they need, because this probably

Unknown:

raised children. So I love the fact that they get to see both.

Unknown:

And, you know, as much as I want to empower my husband, in his

Unknown:

strength to be the best version of him that he can possibly be.

Unknown:

I'm not necessarily trying to get him over here, you know,

Unknown:

because I don't know that that would honestly benefit my kids

Unknown:

in the long run. I know that they chose me and John, for

Unknown:

this, both sides.

Maureen Spielman:

It's a continuum, right? I love that

Maureen Spielman:

and you and you modeling seeing him, then he's gonna see you

Maureen Spielman:

more. So it's a beautiful blending. I like that you

Maureen Spielman:

pointed it out and said that because I think a lot of people

Maureen Spielman:

are living with a partner whose it seems polar opposite, but

Maureen Spielman:

it's not the way we need to look at it. It's different styles

Maureen Spielman:

coming in, we're coming from different families, how can we

Maureen Spielman:

respect each other and plan them and at the same time, use your

Maureen Spielman:

voice for what's most important for you? Right?

Unknown:

Right, I hope and the that I am modeling for my kids,

Unknown:

radical acceptance, and boundaries, like balance between

Unknown:

radically accepting them and everyone in my life, I radically

Unknown:

accept everyone exactly as they are, and the boundaries to keep

Unknown:

me safe and sane, and to fulfill my greatest life, you know, so I

Unknown:

hope I'm modeling for them those boundaries, and that they're

Unknown:

learning that within, you know, how to have radical acceptance

Unknown:

up for, you know, their teachers and their coaches that might,

Unknown:

they might love. And they might hate, radical acceptance for

Unknown:

their friends exactly as they are. And the boundaries that

Unknown:

like, if that doesn't work for you, you leave the friendship,

Unknown:

you know, that doesn't. You know, if the coaching doesn't

Unknown:

work for you, but you want to stay on the team, you got to

Unknown:

learn how to how to deal with your coach, you know, yeah, um,

Unknown:

yeah, I mean, I hope I'm modeling all that my kids are.

Unknown:

So I've never loved this parenting journey more than I do

Unknown:

at teenagers. Yeah, it was my favorite. And I don't know if

Unknown:

it's just because of all this work that I've done for so long,

Unknown:

but I can't get enough of them right now. I love it. And

Unknown:

they're so not easy. And they're not. I love it. I'm so ready for

Unknown:

every challenge that is coming up. And like, it's just really

Unknown:

great. I know,

Maureen Spielman:

I was I was thinking of them when we were

Maureen Spielman:

talking about your greatest teachers, because our kids are

Maureen Spielman:

our partners our own Oh, yeah. They're all our best teachers,

Maureen Spielman:

aren't they? Right?

Unknown:

Yeah, all three of them, put them up to the top of

Unknown:

the list of all that.

Maureen Spielman:

Like, not Wayne Dyer out of the way.

Unknown:

I went are gone. On those three. Oh, yeah.

Maureen Spielman:

So good. I do. I do think it's because of the

Maureen Spielman:

work that you've done that, that you're enjoying these

Maureen Spielman:

relationships so much, because that's, I think, where I came

Maureen Spielman:

from, I had a real lack of boundaries. And I wanted to do I

Maureen Spielman:

knew from when I had the kids, I didn't know anything about

Maureen Spielman:

conscious parenting. I had a friend who she's the director of

Maureen Spielman:

smart love Family Services. I've said this before, but it was all

Maureen Spielman:

like, really about just unconditionally loving your

Maureen Spielman:

children. And to put it in a nutshell, and I wanted that so

Maureen Spielman:

badly, but I didn't have the skills to do it. So I, I went

Maureen Spielman:

through a lot of my life not knowing the skills and that's

Maureen Spielman:

okay too. Because even if we find ourselves and our kids are

Maureen Spielman:

in their 20s, or wherever they are, it's never it's always the

Maureen Spielman:

right time. I don't want to say it's never too late. It's always

Maureen Spielman:

the right time to begin learning something new, and relationships

Maureen Spielman:

can shift and transform at any time. I agree. I agree with you

Unknown:

guys, this story about the relationship. The

Unknown:

relationship relationships, in my opinion are not beyond the

Unknown:

laws of manifesting. We often think they are like, Oh, well,

Unknown:

my husband is like this, or my kids are like this. And so I

Unknown:

can't change them. No, you can change the story that you have

Unknown:

about their relationship with them. And when we change that

Unknown:

story, we change our reality, they absolutely look very

Unknown:

different. And did they change? Or did we change? Like, who

Unknown:

knows, or, you know, they soften or we soften. But the reality

Unknown:

with that person can change when we're willing to change our

Unknown:

story and see things differently.

Maureen Spielman:

There's a lot in there to unpack. I was gonna

Maureen Spielman:

say, you know, with relationships, whether it's

Maureen Spielman:

someone's partner, or it could be a sibling that someone's kind

Maureen Spielman:

of having conflict with? What's your idea about soul contracts

Maureen Spielman:

and, or, you know, someone, a friend you've had for a long

Maureen Spielman:

time, that's not really working well for you anymore. Like, how

Maureen Spielman:

do you feel like soul contracts is this idea that, you know,

Maureen Spielman:

they are writing a book

Unknown:

right now called Soul assignments. So I have a lot to

Unknown:

say about soul contracts. But I guess, similar. In my

Unknown:

experience, Soul assignments are some pre assigned things that

Unknown:

our soul decided to experience in order to advance our soul. So

Unknown:

I had a soul assignment to sign up to be with my dad, my mom and

Unknown:

my dad, I believe all of our parents, all of our, you know,

Unknown:

parents we choose for the progression of our soul. So we

Unknown:

choose our parents for soul assignments. I had a soul

Unknown:

assignment to lose my sister at a young age, right? That kind of

Unknown:

big, like, overwhelmingly traumatizing heart experience

Unknown:

can't be anything other than a soul assignment. It happened for

Unknown:

me, that happened through me. So that I might, X, Y, and Z, you

Unknown:

know, exploring spirituality and like, learn about loss at a

Unknown:

young age, like know how to grieve and help other people

Unknown:

grieving. So we have certain soul assignments, like my

Unknown:

meeting, and my meeting my, my kindergarten bestie, you know,

Unknown:

and having many decades of a friendship with her was a soul

Unknown:

assignment and divorcing her on my 50th birthday was a soul

Unknown:

assignment. So I believe we have soul assignments. And there's a

Unknown:

difference between a soul assignment call it a soul

Unknown:

assignment or a soul contract whatever. And soul creation.

Unknown:

Like, I created this friendship with you and I, I don't know

Unknown:

that we had a soul assignment. I know, we created this because

Unknown:

you're like minded. Right? I created some other amazing

Unknown:

friendships to come into my life when I divorced that friend,

Unknown:

because I had a desire for friends that met my standards.

Unknown:

Yeah, you know, and she didn't meet my standards anymore. I

Unknown:

created the house, I now live in and built it. It wasn't a soul

Unknown:

assignment, you know, for me to have this house or build this

Unknown:

house, right. And I created this job that I have that I do is

Unknown:

coaching and teaching. You know, it wasn't a sole assignment.

Unknown:

Like maybe I have a sole assignment to be an author. But

Unknown:

I created the job that I now have. So I think we have the

Unknown:

soul assignments, but I don't think we are victim to them at

Unknown:

all. I think the key is to recognize our soul assignments,

Unknown:

radically accept them, and harness the power of them, and

Unknown:

find the gifts within them. So that every soul assignment good

Unknown:

or bad, we see the gifts in and that gives us power to then

Unknown:

consciously create soul creation. I love it. It's

Maureen Spielman:

inspiring. I'm excited for the book.

Unknown:

Yeah, I'm gonna finish it by the end of this year, and

Unknown:

I'm going to shop it around to publishers. I have a book agent

Unknown:

that's really excited about it. So that's big. Yeah. And it's

Unknown:

happening through me like as much as I like sometimes I go, I

Unknown:

don't know it's a lot and I can't and I try and pump the

Unknown:

brakes and it just goes so yeah, yeah. Well,

Maureen Spielman:

I think that one time when we were spending

Maureen Spielman:

some time together you had mentioned how in the beginning

Maureen Spielman:

of the day you'll you know, say like a invitation or you know

Maureen Spielman:

what it what am I meant to learn today or what am I meant to know

Maureen Spielman:

today or what's meant to kind of even channel through me today?

Maureen Spielman:

And I love that I love that kind of just I always think about it

Maureen Spielman:

like yeah commute, communing with the universe, right where

Maureen Spielman:

we're at. We're conversing we're relating and it's fun.

Unknown:

Yeah, sure. me how? Yeah, yeah.

Maureen Spielman:

So, to this conversation, I don't know if

Maureen Spielman:

there's anything that comes to mind as we kind of close things

Maureen Spielman:

out that we haven't I know, there's just a million things

Maureen Spielman:

that we haven't covered.

Unknown:

Yeah, well, we covered a lot of good stuff. Really

Unknown:

exciting. I mean, I think the bottom line is that we are

Unknown:

conscious creators. And, you know, I say to my kids, every

Unknown:

night, you're the light, you're meant for greatness you can be

Unknown:

and do and have anything you want in this life. You know,

Unknown:

because years ago, I was like, why am I not embodying this into

Unknown:

my family? Am I not saying this to my children? Why am I not

Unknown:

being this, I'm doing this with these women over here. And then

Unknown:

I'm going to my kids get in bed, come on, get off the lights.

Unknown:

Disconnect here. So that's, that's the big message, right?

Unknown:

We are the light, we're meant for great things, we can

Unknown:

consciously create anything we want, we can be and do and have

Unknown:

anything we want in this life. Now, I think the journey is just

Unknown:

to be reminded of that all the time. In that space.

Maureen Spielman:

Beautiful. Thank you, you know, I know when

Maureen Spielman:

this episode airs, we're going to be right at the beginning or

Maureen Spielman:

in between the holiday season, it'll be right in the beginning

Maureen Spielman:

of December, is there any special message you give to, to

Maureen Spielman:

women as we or any individual listening that as we close out

Maureen Spielman:

the year or ways we can bless or just anything that's a tradition

Maureen Spielman:

to you at that time of year, I love the how we see endings and

Maureen Spielman:

beginnings.

Unknown:

Um, I don't know. I mean, I'm constantly focusing on

Unknown:

how I can gain power through reflection through wisdom and

Unknown:

through service. And I know at that time of year, we're more

Unknown:

focused on service than ever before. But like doing that, all

Unknown:

the time, I love the end of the year, because we can reflect and

Unknown:

look at what went well, and what didn't like I've done that for

Unknown:

decades. And I do that within my programs and stuff. What went

Unknown:

well, what didn't What do I want to do less of what are we going

Unknown:

to do more of right, and then planning consciously planning

Unknown:

the next year, because people don't do that, then they spend

Unknown:

more time planning one vacation, and they don't plan their year,

Unknown:

or their five years or their life. So I really, really,

Unknown:

really encourage you, anyone to to plan more of your days,

Unknown:

planned your years plan your life, because otherwise years go

Unknown:

by and we don't do this. I agree. Look at the end of the

Unknown:

year as a beautiful way to reflect and to plan, you know,

Unknown:

for the future so that we can make this life everyday life

Unknown:

more sacred. It's available to us if we're just awake to it.

Maureen Spielman:

Yeah. Thanks for spreading your message is

Maureen Spielman:

love it. Where can listeners find you, Stephanie?

Unknown:

Unknown:

two apps. And coach was deaf.com is my website. And I have lots

Unknown:

of free courses and stuff on there.

Maureen Spielman:

Well, and I may have said it early in the

Maureen Spielman:

podcast today. But I love your Instagram because that you you

Maureen Spielman:

really do give a lot of takeaways there like short and

Maureen Spielman:

sweet. But you can just take them and go apply them to your

Maureen Spielman:

life practice. I'm trying them out, pick up your kid from

Maureen Spielman:

school, play with it any any of the above. And I think that's

Maureen Spielman:

really helpful. And I think that's what people are really
