WilliamAbsolutely, man.
WilliamSo, yeah, for me, you know, some episodes we do, you know, I'm just meeting people for the first time, but this is personal because, you know, this person and her husband were so inspirational in my life, like from.
WilliamI was in college.
WilliamThey always encouraged me, prayed for me, shared with me, and I've.
WilliamI've.
WilliamI've grown so much, and I've seen them grow so much practicing the things that they taught me.
WilliamAnd so it's just so amazing.
WilliamLike, I remember, you know, I was going through a season and, you know, when my faith needed to increase and I.
WilliamAnd I asked her for the recommendations and she shared those with me and helped that which helped me to become a better person in Life in business, in my job, in so many different areas in my life.
WilliamAnd, and it's crazy because I remember, like, one of the books she recommended, the Upon Purpose of Prayer by Dr.
WilliamMiles Murdo.
WilliamI it had a page in there where, you know, she had, like, some of the things she was praying for.
WilliamI was like, you know, you know, you know, some of these things might be personal.
WilliamDid you know you left us in the book?
WilliamShe was like, oh, can you, can you take a picture and send it to me?

WilliamBut, you know, but anyway, let's help me welcome to the show, Tavia Jackson.
WilliamTavia, what is up?
TaviaHello.
TaviaThank you so much.
TaviaCharlie.
TaviaWill, I am so thrilled to be here.
TaviaAnd, and Charles, you are not left out, but definitely to my fellow brother in arms.
WilliamOh, man.
WilliamWell, hey, you know, and I'll.
WilliamBecause you two are so nice and so welcoming, I'm sure I won't feel too, too, too laughed out, but I may be a little lost when you all start talking that Marine talk.
WilliamBut it's okay.
WilliamIt's like, I'll be fine.
WilliamSo, Tavia, so it's, it's so awesome to bring you here on the show.
WilliamI know you had a phenomenal event that I recently attended a virtual online workshop helping people break through limiting beliefs.
WilliamSo I know you're sharing a lot of value.
WilliamBut, you know, before you got to this place, I know you have an amazing story and some of our audience listening now.
WilliamSome of them Know you're ready.
WilliamAnd some of them don't know know you.
WilliamAnd so take us back.
WilliamTell us more about your journey and how you got in, you got started.
WilliamYou know, focusing more on your.
WilliamYour.
WilliamYour business and professional life and everything.
WilliamTell us more how everything got started.
TaviaWell, that's a great question, Charles.
TaviaSo for.
TaviaSo one, currently in Charlotte, North Carolina, married for 18, almost 19 years.
TaviaWe've known each other for 25 years.
TaviaWe have three amazing kids.
TaviaOur household is always laughing with someone.
TaviaI'm not going to say, but with someone probably both.
TaviaRight.
WilliamSometimes.
TaviaRight, Right.
TaviaSo we have a lot of fun.
TaviaSo I know for me, yes, I am a United States Marine.
TaviaSo being in the Marine Corps, then I did makeup for over, like, 12 years.
TaviaI did makeup for all the women at TD Jakes conference and Charlotte.
TaviaLike, I did the first black billionaire woman makeup to own a staffing agency like her makeup.
TaviaSo many people, people that y'all know very, very well.
TaviaSo I had the opportunity to do that.
TaviaI've also owned.
TaviaWe own a popcorn business.
TaviaWe have over 200 flavors of gourmet popcorn that we ship all over the country.
TaviaWe do a lot of corporate orders as well.
TaviaOf course, Christmas is here, so Christmas gifts and things like that.
TaviaBut I spent 20 years corporately building the corporate ladder as project management, IT risk management, and things like that, all in the finance industry.
TaviaAnd then for the third time, I received notice that my job was being impacted by all the things that were happening in the world.
TaviaAnd this time, it was my favorite company.
TaviaLike, sometimes it was like, oh, I don't want to be here anyway.
TaviaBut this one, y'all, it was my favorite company.
TaviaLike, my heart was broken.
TaviaAll the things we had just moved into, a new house, three kids.
TaviaAll the things we all multiple businesses.
TaviaAnd I'm like, lord, what do you want me to do?
TaviaAnd so I kind of grieved a little bit because you feel like, what's going to happen?
TaviaHow long is this going to last?
TaviaWhat if I don't find X, Y, and Z?
TaviaYou know, all of us, I feel embarrassed because I love the company so much.
TaviaI told everybody about it.
TaviaY'all, I work for this company.
TaviaI have a limited pto.
TaviaI'm a part of this.
TaviaThey're flying me here, and they're like, is that your company on the news?
TaviaListen, the rug ever been, like, just snatched out from underneath you?
TaviaHave you ever felt embarrassed when somebody can publicly see something that's impacted your life?
TaviaWow.
TaviaOne day I was waking up.
TaviaIt pushed Chills on me.
TaviaAnd I just kept hearing, serve more people.
TaviaServe more people.
TaviaServe more people.
TaviaAnd I jumped out of bed and I said, God, what do you want me to do?
TaviaI mean, I'm an elder.
TaviaI pray for people.
TaviaI help people.
TaviaI've been serving people.
TaviaLike, what does that look like?
TaviaAnd then I heard coaching and teaching, and I said, well, I already do that.
TaviaI've been coaching people for 20 years and teaching people for 20 years.
TaviaI've been on stages with thousands of people.
TaviaAnd he said, you've been doing it on a pygmy level.
TaviaI said, oh, we coming for your girl like that this morning, Lord.
TaviaThat's what.
TaviaAnd he was so.
TaviaOf course he was right.
TaviaBut, like, I never did a webpage.
TaviaLike, I wanted to stay right underneath the radar to where my insecurities weren't coming to the surface, to where my fears were just comfortable.
TaviaAnd so at that time, all the despair that I felt having that.
TaviaThat defining moment, I made a decision.
TaviaI made a decision to take back control of my life.
TaviaThat even though there was uncertainty, that even though I may not have had a paycheck in the next two weeks, I had the conviction and courage to let the part of me that wanted my dream to win over the part of me that was terrified.
TaviaBecause opportunities rarely come when it's comfortable or convenient.
TaviaSo even though it wasn't comfortable and convenient to do that now, now was that time.
TaviaAnd so I began educating myself, shifting my mindset, elevating my awareness, working through my own limiting beliefs.
TaviaAnd let me tell you, the life I live today.
TaviaOh, I feel so much fulfillment.
TaviaI feel empowered.
TaviaI feel stable.
TaviaMy marriage is amazing.
TaviaMy children are phenomenal.
TaviaAnd I loved transformation so much.
TaviaAnd the transformation that I was able to experience that I decided to share that transformation with others.
TaviaI've helped people.
TaviaOne young lady, she enrolled in my coaching program Activate youe Dream Life.
TaviaShe shared her dreams, and she said, you know, years down the line, this will happen.
TaviaI haven't finished this.
TaviaI haven't finished my PhD.
TaviaDa, da, da, da, da.
TaviaSo, you know, I'm not expecting it now.
TaviaDo you know?
TaviaAnd the goal was international speaker.
TaviaDo you know?
TaviaIn nine weeks of working with me, she was literally already booked to be an international speaker.
TaviaWas being flown to Bulgaria.
TaviaWow.
CharlesWow.
TaviaTo speak to policymakers that govern policy all over the world.
WilliamMy goodness.
TaviaSo this is my soul's purpose.
TaviaI get to serve, and I get to operate in this vein that the Lord has me operate in.
WilliamMan.
TaviaWow.
WilliamThat is.
WilliamThat is so much to unpack.
WilliamOh, my goodness.
WilliamOh, that is so good.
WilliamBecause a lot of the things you mentioned, even the things that you went through, like Tabor, I think sometimes people see you, like, right now and think, like, oh, my goodness, like, she is so amazing, and she is so happy, and.
WilliamBut they don't know the things that you went through, you know, And I've heard you share some of those stories over the years.
WilliamYou're like, lord, if you did it for her, you could definitely do it for me.
WilliamWas there a point in that journey?
WilliamI know you talked about, you know, how you.
WilliamThe company, you know, that you work with.
WilliamBut.
WilliamBut there are.
WilliamAre there some other stories in that?
WilliamBecause, you know, stories kind of really, really help our audience because we have.
WilliamTavia, we have some investors right now who is listening.
WilliamSome of them, you know, are into stocks, real estate, other equity, private equity businesses, and some of them are going through stuff.
WilliamTavia.
WilliamOh, my goodness.
WilliamSome of them, you know, whether it's financial or dealing with.
WilliamWith, you know, internal issues, can you share some story and kind of help lift our audience out of that?
WilliamBecause I know you have some key points as well, too, to help them.
TaviaYes.
TaviaSo let me do health first.
TaviaSo, man, six years ago, I started experiencing blindness.
TaviaSo I could literally only see right in front of me.
TaviaI couldn't read an email by keeping my face still.
TaviaLike, I had to move my eyes like this.
TaviaAnd so I was like, that's odd.
TaviaLike, I know I'm aging a tiny bit, but my vision shouldn't change that drastically, right?
TaviaAnd then my arm started going numb, and it felt like I was carrying £15.
TaviaLike, you would think, oh, your arm is light.
TaviaBut when all the nerves in your body start shutting down, it's super heavy to the rest of your body.
TaviaAnd so at first, I was like, oh, maybe it's a little carpal tunnel.
TaviaYou know, I'm typing and stuff.
TaviaAnd it kept happening, and then it started getting worse.
TaviaAnd then with the vision, it was impacting my performance.
TaviaNow at this time, I'm working on a makeup artist.
TaviaThere's so many things I'm preaching.
TaviaThere's so many things I'm doing, and I'm like, what has happened?
TaviaI go to the optometrist.
TaviaI was there for four hours.
TaviaShe did all these tests.
TaviaYou know why?
TaviaBecause they were really afraid to tell me.
TaviaSo finally they called me back in the office, and they said, so it's not your vision, it's your brain.
TaviaWe need to get you in for mri.
WilliamWow.
TaviaGo to the mri.
TaviaThe doctor's like, hey, does anybody in your family have multiple sclerosis?
TaviaYeah, my first cousin does.
TaviaAnd I'm actually her primary caregiver.
TaviaShe's bedridden.
TaviaRight.
TaviaAnd so he's like, well, you pretty much check all the symptom symptoms.
TaviaWe'll do more MRIs, then we can do a spinal tap, then we'll get you on drugs and stuff.
TaviaI said, well, what's the cure?
TaviaAnd he said, well, there is no cure.
TaviaHe said, actually, when you think it's going to get better, it won't.
TaviaLike, that's just really temporary.
TaviaLike, it really just degenerates.
TaviaOh, man.
TaviaSo I walked out of that office, and I was like, you know, the devil is a liar.
TaviaI'm gonna be fine.
TaviaDa, da, da, da, da.
TaviaAnd I go home, and then I have more appointments and more tests, and all the tests keep coming back negative.
TaviaSo then.
TaviaThen I was actually sad and down.
TaviaAnd when I got sad and down, I felt it through my body more than ever before.
TaviaAnd it was so key.
TaviaIt was just like my thoughts.
TaviaYour thoughts, our thoughts impact every area of our life.
TaviaI didn't feel as bad until I started feeling.
TaviaI was defeated.
TaviaI felt defeated.
TaviaIt's like before, I was resisting it, but when I took it in, it took over in a different way.
TaviaAnd that applies for anything if you take it all the way in.
TaviaSo I was talking to a client the other day, and she kept saying, my anxiety, my anx.
TaviaAnd I said, that's not yours.
TaviaIt's not yours because it doesn't fall in line with the capital T for truth.
TaviaI said, so maybe you.
TaviaA part of you is experiencing it or you're being impacted by it, but let's not call it ours.
TaviaThat applies for anything.
TaviaOkay?
TaviaSo went through this, and then I.
TaviaI was down.
TaviaAnd then I got instructions from the Lord.
TaviaHey, you need to renew your mind.
TaviaYou have heard all these negative reports.
TaviaYou have read all these things, and all your brain can see is this.
TaviaNot only with the fact that I'm replaying the movie of the person I see every week that I help that can't walk.
TaviaOkay?
TaviaSo lie number one.
TaviaThe doctor said, this is hereditary.
TaviaAnd I'm thinking, man, so that means, like, it is going to be mine.
TaviaAnd over time, the Lord said, I read this book called Biology of Belief.
TaviaAnd you know what?
TaviaOnly 3% of diseases are actually hereditary.
TaviaHigh blood pressure is not hereditary.
TaviaMississippi is not hereditary.
TaviaCancer is not hereditary.
TaviaLike, the real thing that doctors are saying to you is epigenetic.
TaviaThey're saying, we believe that if your parents did this or lived a certain way, that you're going to put your cells in the same environment.
TaviaBut when you realize that you have the ability to shift whatever environment you decide to put your body in, through your thoughts, through water, through exercise, through your activity, through what you eat, you don't have to be sick.
TaviaAnd so I had to learn how to allow my body to do what it was designed to do, which is heal itself and to walk.
TaviaHealth and healing.
TaviaSo it's a combination of everything.
TaviaBut if anybody's experiencing a sickness, you have a vision and a dream and a goal for your life.
TaviaAnd you have to know that that rehabilitating thing, that thing that they're saying is going to be lifelong.
TaviaIt doesn't match your future.
TaviaIt doesn't match what you're called here to do.
TaviaIt doesn't match you needing your mental faculties, your body, your physical members to invest, to read, to stay up late, to do whatever it takes to build what you're building right now.
TaviaSomebody said sickness is incipient death, and that jarred me because before, it's like, you know, you got a little sickness here, you'll let it sit there.
TaviaBut when you realize that forms of sickness is like slow death, then you fight back f mask instead of holding it in and letting it sit there.
TaviaWhen you also know that you're worthy, you also don't just let things sit there like, you're worthy of help, you're worthy of happiness.
TaviaYou're worthy of living a life where you can achieve your goals and dreams without having the constant burden of a sickness.
TaviaSo I stand before you today, healed, like, I'm whole.
TaviaI have not had any symptoms and at all.
TaviaI am totally healed.
TaviaBeen that way for over four years, and it's absolutely phenomenal.
CharlesWow, that's such a cool story.
CharlesLike, I mean, God bless.
CharlesThat's.
CharlesThat's amazing.
CharlesHow.
CharlesHow did you take.
CharlesHow did you take that.
CharlesThat mindset, that mentality forward?
CharlesHow did you move forward with that?
CharlesBecause it sounds like you grew so much and you learned so much.
CharlesHowever.
CharlesHowever long that that time period was.
CharlesBut sounds like there was a lot of growth and everything in there.
CharlesSo how.
CharlesHow do you.
CharlesHow do you currently use that?
TaviaThere was a lot of growth.
TaviaSo how I use that now is.
TaviaYou know how your iPhone tells you you need an update?
TaviaSometimes we put it off for your computer and iPhone.
WilliamAny.
TaviaAny device technology will eventually tell you it needs an Update said it the same way.
TaviaYears ago, I felt super strong about wholeness and health and healing.
TaviaBut things get watered down over time.
TaviaAnd so what I learned is that our mindset about all the key areas of life needs to be continually updated.
TaviaOne of the quotes I put up recently is that it's not just about pulling the weeds.
TaviaYou have to plant good seeds.
TaviaAnd if I'm not planting good seeds, about my health, about my wealth, about my marriage, about my relationship with kids, about my business, about what I want to see, my investments, whatever that may be, if I'm not planting seeds, only, pulling up weeds is still not going to produce the full magnitude of the result that we want.
TaviaSo taking that into every area of our life.
TaviaAnd then thoughts are things.
TaviaSo the mindset, your thoughts, if you change your thoughts, you change your life.
TaviaIf you hold a positive thought or negative thought for over 17 seconds, that thought is going to start to become your reality.
TaviaAnd so it's about learning how to maximize and influence your own thoughts so that the world, so that the news, so that situation, circumstances, and the events we face aren't controlling our life every day.
CharlesSounds.
CharlesIt sounds like a lot like putting positive.
CharlesLike actually thinking positive and choosing to do so and then looking for the ways to grow through that.
CharlesI was listening, I think it was to a sermon at one point where they were saying the.
CharlesRegarding music, like, the type of music you listen to really affects the way that you have.
CharlesYou have an outlook on basically everything.
CharlesLike, if the music is not good music, and if you switch that and you go to, like, uplifting music.
CharlesFor Christians, that would be, like, not necessarily gospel music specifically, but, like, things that don't focus necessarily on us, but focus on.
CharlesOn God and Jesus and those things that we look forward to as believers, how that changes your mentality.
CharlesAnd so it's.
CharlesI.
CharlesI went.
CharlesI went like a week and did nothing but listen to that.
CharlesAnd I had a really good week.
CharlesLiterally, just.
CharlesJust by listening to music, I didn't change anything else.
CharlesSo I have my normal four cups of coffee first thing in the morning, so.
WilliamFour cups in the morning, William.
WilliamOh, my goodness.
CharlesYeah.
CharlesLet's.
CharlesLet's just say I wake up really early.
CharlesIt's probably one of my.
CharlesOne of my worst habits.
WilliamNo judgment.
WilliamYeah, that.
WilliamThat's.
WilliamThat's amazing.
WilliamAnd I'm.
WilliamAnd I'm listening to.
WilliamAnd as I mentioned, you know, for me, this is personal, because a lot of things, you know, I've heard Tavia say over the years, and even, you know, the awesome online event she had last week is like, even applying some of those things to my life because we all need an updating.
WilliamWe all need reminding.
WilliamAnd, you know, for you listening here, like, you know, like, look at these amazing stories that Tavia is telling us, how, you know, like, you know, she got it.
WilliamShe was at a place where she was getting in the business, preaching, doing makeup for, you know, billionaires and so many, you know, big names.
WilliamAnd she went through something as well, and she had to step back, right, and update her mindset.
WilliamShe had to break through those limiting beliefs and challenges.
WilliamAnd.
WilliamAnd it's so amazing, too, because I remember that.
WilliamThat online event, which when, you know, if she have any online event or in person, you only definitely check it out.
WilliamI needed that reminder because, you know, I, too, was going through things, you know, through this, you know, through the largest, you know, a real estate deal, I've done, you know, hundreds of thousands of dollars.
WilliamAnd, you know, I was dealing with some things, you know, that seemed like he kept on blocking me that.
WilliamThat I needed that update, right?
WilliamAnd so, man, this is so good, because I know, Tavia, that you have some practical keys.
WilliamYou have these four keys that you'd like to share with everyone, and I would love for you to share that with our audience, because people are listening right now and going through stuff.
WilliamYou know what I mean?
WilliamSo would you be so kind to share those four keys that you think are very important?
TaviaAbsolutely.
TaviaSo there are definitely four keys.
TaviaSo let's start with our thoughts.
TaviaSo the first thing is that your thoughts are going to inform your feelings.
TaviaSo say for the same thing could happen to me, that could happen to you, but what I think about is going to determine my feelings.
TaviaWe can be in.
TaviaWe could be in a business deal, right?
TaviaAnd I could lose $200,000, and I could choose to think, oh, my God, what am I going to do?
TaviaIt's the end of the world.
TaviaWhat is my.
TaviaWhat is going to happen?
TaviaWhat's going to happen?
TaviaHow I'm going to fix this?
TaviaHow am I going to pay for it?
TaviaAll the things, right?
TaviaBut I could also say, man, this is what it looks like when it's working out.
TaviaAnd I'm so excited that I'm having the opportunity to overcome this, because when I overcome this, then I can overcome the 400,000 and the half a million and the $1 million.
TaviaSo what can I learn through this?
TaviaSo that this is not something that mentally weighs on me so that it doesn't happen again, or so that I'M growing through it.
TaviaSo if I decide to go the first route.
TaviaOh my God, this is horrible.
TaviaWhat am I going to do?
TaviaI can't sleep at night.
TaviaThen one, I'm even shutting off my brain to the resources of the answers.
TaviaThat is the most important part.
TaviaOkay, so now how am I feeling?
TaviaI feel down, I feel bad, I feel anxious.
TaviaI may be panicking.
TaviaI'm putting myself in defcon like we're all the things.
TaviaDon't talk to me.
TaviaI'm under the covers, I'm stressing, I'm sweating all the things, right?
TaviaAnd so because of those feelings, that's going to drive an action.
TaviaSo what's my action?
TaviaAm I complaining?
TaviaAm I quitting?
TaviaPeople quit, you know, that's it for me.
TaviaI'm throwing in the towel.
TaviaI'm not doing this investing thing anymore.
TaviaI lost some money.
TaviaWhat?
TaviaAll those things, right?
TaviaSo that's going to inform my results.
TaviaSo now my results are.
TaviaOkay, well, I decided to quit because I lost $200,000.
TaviaBut now I'm quitting.
TaviaSo I'm cutting off all the income potential for my future.
TaviaOoh, let's.
TaviaLet's switch that thought.
TaviaOkay.
TaviaOh, man.
TaviaI just lost $200,000 on this deal.
TaviaMy thought, I live in God's abundant universe.
Tavia200k is nothing for him to recoup.
TaviaLloyd, show me what you want me to do to either remedy this, fix this, or how is this supposed to help me grow?
TaviaWhat do you need me to know, and I thank you, that I'm recouping that 200k and more in some shape, form or fashion.
TaviaSo now what are my feelings?
TaviaI still feel the.
TaviaI'm optimistic, I'm positive, I'm looking for my next opportunity.
TaviaSomething's about to happen in my life that's gonna either over time, fix this, or immediately fix this.
TaviaAnd my head is on a swivel.
TaviaOkay, what is it?
TaviaIf somebody may just give me 200k, I'm open to it all.
TaviaSo what?
TaviaSo I'm not down, I'm not disheartened, I'm not quitting, you know, so.
TaviaSo what is my action?
TaviaMy action is expectation.
TaviaMy action is solution oriented.
TaviaMy action is what's next.
TaviaMy action may be researching what's next.
TaviaAnd then what's my result?
TaviaMy result is I was resilient.
TaviaI learned.
TaviaI built new partnerships, I built relationships.
TaviaI did learn something from it.
TaviaAnd now this person is having million dollar investments and they know if, even if I can't even conceptualize and losing 200k.
TaviaThen that's what one of my friends said.
TaviaHe was building this commercial thing, had it.
TaviaEverything was in place, investors, everything.
TaviaTwo days before the bank pulled out, he owed all these people money, $2 million.
TaviaAnd he was like, he couldn't sleep.
TaviaAnd he called his mentor and his mentor said, if you can't sleep with $200 million, then how are you going to be a multimillionaire or a billionaire?
TaviaHe said, you better learn how to sleep.
TaviaThis is temporary.
TaviaIt'll pass.
TaviaAnd so within.
TaviaSo he shifted his mindset.
TaviaWithin two days, one of the investors called him and said, hey, I heard about everything that happened.
TaviaThank you for reaching out to us.
TaviaShe said, I'm going to cover it all.
TaviaDon't even worry about it.
TaviaHe went back to starting from scratch like he, no balance due.
TaviaDon't worry about it.
TaviaI'll cover the whole thing.
TaviaI'll pay out all your investors.
WilliamWow, that's amazing.
TaviaSo what are we thinking?
TaviaSo thoughts impact our feelings, impact our actions, impact our results, y'all.
TaviaThat's in every area.
TaviaIf you're not getting the results you want, go back to your thoughts.
TaviaIt's either what you're thinking or even what you're not thinking.
TaviaMaybe you're not thinking the right positive or abundant or life giving thoughts, or maybe you are thinking negative thoughts.
TaviaBut go.
TaviaWhatever your results are, any result, marriage, health, business, any result with your kids, go back to what you're thinking about this.
WilliamMan, that's some good stuff.
WilliamI love it.
WilliamAnd I think, as you mentioned, you can can apply that to any area of your life, you know, and, and I'm glad you're touching on these things with the marriage and the personal health, because William, you know, correct me, I'm wrong.
WilliamYou know, we coach a bunch of students in real estate and you know, Tavia, one of the things that stops some students from growing or from investing is personal issues.
WilliamPersonal issues come up so many times, right.
WilliamAnd when we encourage them to break through those issues, we use them as a barrier.
WilliamLike, I remember one of my students, Teresa, she was pregnant with her seventh child with a high risk pregnancy, and she really wanted to invest.
WilliamAnd I was trying to be careful because her husband wanted, didn't want her to, you know, be stressed up.
WilliamSo I had to be careful.
WilliamI wanted to make sure that they were both on that call to really figure out what it is that they want to do.
WilliamBut she really wanted to break through it.
WilliamShe really wanted to do it.
WilliamAnd so I asked her husband, I Said, you know, do you give me permission to help you all through this process?
WilliamAnd, and, you know, long story short, she knocked it out of the park.
WilliamOh, my goodness.
WilliamLike, she closed.
WilliamShe closed six properties within five months, and then, you know, it was.
WilliamEnded up being like 11 properties within eight months.
WilliamRight.
WilliamShe was literally the.
WilliamThat mobile notary had to come to the hospital right before she delivered the baby to, you know, to sign the documents.
WilliamThat.
WilliamJust mind blowing.
WilliamSo I'm so glad that you touched on that.
WilliamNone of our.
WilliamCorrect me, I'm wrong.
WilliamNone of our other guests spoke about, you know, the health issues and those type of things.
WilliamBut that is so important, you know, whether it's health, marriage, whatever it may be, because those are the things that are.
WilliamThat a lot that are thrown at us to try to discourage us from breaking through.
WilliamRight.
WilliamTo that next level.
TaviaAbsolutely.
WilliamOh, go ahead.
CharlesYeah, very much.
CharlesI, I agree with that.
CharlesAnd I think people have to be in the right headspace to do certain things.
CharlesAnd sometimes you do have to take that step back, that reset, that update you were talking about, that really needs to happen for a lot of people.
CharlesAnd sometimes you get really deep in and you're.
CharlesIf you're like me, where you'll push, push, push, push, and then you'll.
CharlesYou'll hit a wall, not only mentally, but it can affect you physically.
CharlesLike, you're just very drained and you can't go any farther.
CharlesAnd then you, you need to realize you need a reset.
CharlesBut that looks a little bit different for everybody.
CharlesAnd so that's.
CharlesIt's a very interesting aspect of just life in general.
CharlesAnd there's so many things that affect how people think and what they do.
CharlesPersonal circumstance as far as, like, just business in general, investing.
CharlesI can't imagine if a notary showed up at the hospital right before my, My wife was about to give birth, I think she'd probably shoot me, and then I'd be in the hospital bed next to her.
CharlesBut that's.
CharlesThat, that's a pretty awesome story there, Charles.
WilliamJust, just disclaimer.
WilliamI, I did not, you know, encourage her to do it while she was in the hospital.
WilliamThat was all her, you know.
WilliamBut, but Tavia, I mean, can you relate to that?
WilliamI'm sure you have some clients going through stuff, and you've seen them, you know, you have some students.
WilliamYou've seen them, overcame these things.
WilliamRight.
WilliamDespite.
WilliamRight.
Tavia101 of my clients.
TaviaWhen I met her, she was living with her mom, and she had two children, so there were some internal things Happening.
TaviaOkay.
TaviaI have some shame happening.
TaviaI have all these feelings that are happening that were impacting her growth and business.
TaviaSo when I met her, she was probably making basically about literally y'all, like fifteen hundred dollars a month.
TaviaWow.
TaviaOkay.
TaviaSo about five months later, she messaged two kids.
TaviaFive months later she messaged me.
TaviaAnd she said, based on the work that I did with you and you, helping me undo the limiting beliefs and the agreements that I had made, we make agreements.
TaviaLike if you say money doesn't grow on trees or we make a.
TaviaWe make all kind of agreements.
TaviaIf it rains, it pours.
TaviaThat's not my agreement.
TaviaLike, we make all kinds of agreements all the time.
TaviaSo we redid her agreements.
TaviaWe redid the limiting beliefs and the things that were holding her back.
TaviaShe messaged me, she said, in first quarter January, March and April, I made 20,000.
CharlesOh, wow.
WilliamWow.
TaviaAnd she almost didn't get started because of course the thing is, well, I don't have the money.
TaviaBut the thing is, is that this was my decision.
TaviaMy decision.
TaviaThe quote I live by is that I have the courage to live for my vision and not my circumstances.
TaviaIf it's in alignment with who I am, with my values and with what my goal and my dream is it.
TaviaI don't.
TaviaI'm not concerned if it doesn't look like I have the money.
TaviaBecause I know that when I say yes, my yes is the spiritual, energetic response that is needed for providence and provision to come to me.
TaviaAnd if I say, well, I'm going to wait for the providence of provision to come until I do it, then I'm going to continue to be in my situation and stay there.
TaviaAnd so a lot of people, they're waiting for the perfect thing to come together to do it.
TaviaAnd like the person, the young lady that was pregnant, she said, yeah, I'm doing this right now.
TaviaAnd that right now, energy starts to shift things because one of the most dangerous thoughts and paradigms that people experience because they act like they're telling their self.
TaviaYes, but delay is still telling everything yourself and the world?
WilliamNo, that.
WilliamI love it.
WilliamDavid, this has been absolutely amazing.
WilliamI.
WilliamI really enjoy this and.
WilliamBut more than likely, maybe we missed something.
WilliamIs there anything else we miss to help our audience become a breakthrough investor, just like you?
TaviaSo to be a breakthrough investor, I would love your audience to know the power of vision it requires.
TaviaYour life will change if you literally visualize fully your success.
TaviaLike three dimensional visualization that looks like, say, for example, my next goal is this $2 million shopping center, or this commercial property you're visualizing that is already done, as if you're watching yourself in a movie, what does that look like?
TaviaYou have figure out what does it look like to me when it's already done, and I'm going to start picturing myself doing that.
TaviaDoes it look like you're giving keys?
TaviaDoes it look like you're signing documents?
TaviaWhat does it look like for your life?
TaviaLike, how do you know that it's done?
TaviaAnd whatever that looks like for you, for whatever you want for the next 30 or 60 days, start visualizing it every day to the point where you can feel it in your body, meaning I'm responding.
TaviaSo if I'm visualizing me getting the keys to my physical commercial property that I own, oh, I'm.
TaviaOh, my goodness, I'm happy.
TaviaI'm like, yes, this is happening.
TaviaI'm getting my keys.
TaviaAnd when you allow yourself to visualize it and feel it, everything starts to shift.
TaviaYour mind will start to find supporting evidence to move you in that direction, because your subconscious mind doesn't know the difference between what's real and what you show it.
TaviaAnd when you tell it that this is what's real, then it moves everything in the direction to do that for you.
TaviaIt works for you.
TaviaSo our subconscious mind, we have to.
TaviaTo work through our programming and fix our programming, but it's just like a game.
TaviaWhen you know how to work the game, you play the game to win.
TaviaAnd we know now how to program our subconscious minds and get our beliefs and the nucleus of what's driving our actions on board so that we can win in every area of life.
TaviaSo the power of vision is something that I want to tell each and every one of your listeners.
TaviaPick one thing.
TaviaStart visualizing it every day, maybe even twice a day, morning and night.
TaviaAnd my goodness, please write back to this podcast and tell them what your.
TaviaWhat your response and your results are.
WilliamOh, that's awesome.
