the Inside Out podcast. I'm your host JoJo and this is where we'll navigate the mess together. That is mental, emotional and spiritual. Let's get into it.

Jojo (00:27.832)
Hi everyone, welcome back. So this is gonna be a little part two on intuition of what we started to talk about last week. And I'm really excited because today I have Michelle Galoube on. She is an intuitive guide, coach and spiritual mentor. So without further ado, Michelle, welcome to Inside Out. Thank you. Thank you for having me. Of course. Thank you for being here. Okay. I just want to dive head first in. Intuition. There's so many things.

that come to mind when we think of like what intuition is. And for me, it's like gut feelings and little tidbits of information where you're like, why do I know this, but I know this? So my first question for you is, what was the first time that you were like, I know something, I don't know how I know this. And maybe this was before you got into like coaching or like really getting deeper into your intuitive practice.

But what was that first thing where you were like, my gosh, there's something different here. that's a good question. So I, I was really young. I was like, I would say eight years old. No, right. Yeah. I was eight and I remember my mom brought some lady home for, you know, for dinner, somebody that she was working with and

And we were sitting at dinner, I was very shy. So I was just like, I was just observing her. Like the whole dinner, I was just sitting there quiet. And I was like, I don't feel good vibes from this woman. I could feel it in my belly. I was like, it wasn't my brain saying this woman is bad news. It was really in my body. So this lady comes over and I am totally...

just sitting there quietly thinking that something is up with her, like something is not right. Anyways, she leaves and my mom's like, wasn't she such a nice lady? And I was like, no, I don't like her at all. And my mom was like, what? And I was like, no, there's something really not okay about her, something really off. And my mom's like, no, don't be silly. Like, what are you even talking about?

Jojo (02:50.592)
Anyways, it turns out this woman was like a scam artist and tried to swindle my mom from like hundreds of thousands of dollars. That was the first time that I would say I recognized my guidance. And then it happened a few other times, you know, after 9-11. I wasn't doing what I was doing. I used to be in the fashion business. I was on a flight on September 14th from London to New York.

And as I'm getting on the plane, I see this guy that looked really kind of shady. Well, in my mind, he was shady. was like, something's off. I was getting like really horrible feeling my stomach. But actually at that point, I was doubting whether it was true guidance or whether I was paranoid and making it up because we're three days after 9-11. So I was like, toying between is this

really what I'm feeling or am I being paranoid and I'm going to just now throw this guy under the bus. So yeah, I doubted whether to say anything to the flight attendant because I didn't want to I didn't want to ruin this guy's trip. But at the same time, I was like, something is wrong with him. anyways, we're about to get on the plane. I tell the flight attendant that that the guy like a couple of people behind me looked shady and I didn't think that she should let him on the plane.

And so she's like, yeah, yeah, don't worry, go sit down. So I go to my seat, the guy gets on the plane. He's staring at me like he's onto me and I'm onto him. And he's staring at me the whole, the whole entire time. And then as I was sitting there in silence, and also I was afraid, I really got like a knowing, like you said earlier, like I just knew that this was not right.

I went back to the flight attendant. said, you have to do something about this guy. There's something not okay. So five minutes later, like 10 armed police guards come onto the plane. Turns out the guy had a fake Italian passport. He was traveling with no luggage and the whole thing. And so, yes, he was planning to do something on that flight. So

Jojo (05:14.526)
I realized then I was like, must have some sort of intuitive abilities. But again, I didn't think anything of it. So it sounds like your intuitive hits are like in your stomach where you feel in your stomach or your gut that something isn't right. And people always say like, trust your gut. And you also referenced how you were like, well, I don't know if I...

was just like being paranoid or if I really could trust my gut. Like how did you eventually hone in on that skill of like knowing when your gut is actually onto something versus like the paranoia of it? Well, it took practice. It took practice. I realized that it's always the first thing that comes to you, not once you've like processed it. So in that scenario, the first thing that came to me was like, this guy was shady and I should have just stuck with that, right?

As soon as I start to put my own logic or my own spin on it, like, well, poor guy. It's right after September 11th, so poor guy is probably just sweaty and nervous himself. Then I started to make excuses for what I saw, what I felt. It's like your ego mind starts to take over rather than that initial thought. Exactly.

Which wasn't a thought, it just dropped in. So it feels like it's a thought, but it wasn't, because it's like, where did that thought come from? It's like, suddenly I knew this information, and I was getting goosebumps as well. That's a telling sign. Truth bumps. Truth bumps, That's what I say, yes. I like that. Yeah, yeah. It's really about being aware of where you feel your intuitive hits.

in your body and knowing when your brain is coming in and trying to sabotage those downloads. That's so interesting. So this past year for me, I've had like such an internal battle that's going back and forth of can I trust my gut? Like, am I actually feeling what's real? And I had this like,

Jojo (07:38.254)
I really can't trust my gut moment of, well, yeah, how do I know basically? And I've mentioned this in previous episodes, but I do this thing where I like talk out loud to the universe, the creator, whatever you want to call it. I asked specifically, hey, if something isn't good for me, make me feel sick to my stomach. That's quite an ask.

I started around people, around food substances, around situations to get physically nauseous. And it started to show up in situations where even if I was like self betraying doing something that I knew wasn't good for me, but I was making excuses and having that logical mind kind of come in instead of just being like, no, I need to set a boundary here. And for me, that's been kind of my way.

lately through tapping deeper into my intuition because I, I too have this like deep knowing sometimes where it just pops out of thin air or drops in, like you said. And I'm like, where on earth did I get that from? And I've also had weird things happen to me in dreams. Like I will find out information from dreams, which is terrifying. About seven years ago, I kept having this repetitive dream.

that my partner at the time was cheating on me. wow. Turns out, and it was repetitive, I figured out after the fact because he was cheating on me with like six different people. So when it would happen, I would get a dream. When it would happen, I would have another dream. I figured this out, unfortunately, way too late. But I've also found out so many random things just from dreams that- Wow, that's amazing. preemptively been able to-

avoid situation because I would have dreams that they were about to happen and then be able to like honestly divert for lack of a better word. That's incredible. Do you have a dream journal? You should. Yes, I do have a dream journal. I do it in my voice notes and I'll wake up in the morning and usually my dreams just like fly out the window if I don't record it into my phone and then go about my day. I have this friend who doesn't live here and sometimes he's in town.

Jojo (10:02.19)
Yeah. And I had a dream in November that he was in town and I put it into my, my dream journal. Cause I was like, that's random. Like I haven't seen him for awhile and I put it away, whatever. I didn't end up seeing him fast forward like two or three weeks later, I ended up seeing him and he was like, Oh, by the way, I was in town and I didn't tell you I was here this day. And I literally pulled out my dream journal and I was like, knew it.

Look at this. Like, this is crazy. And he's like, yeah, that's, pretty insane. That's amazing. So I would recommend actually, if you had like, you have this dream journal in order to truly know whether it's like guidance coming through the dreams or not, I would just write, write down or voice note the dream and just leave it, just put it aside for a couple of days. And then later I would ask for guidance. Like what?

What was the message in this dream? Like, why did you show me this person? I mean, in this case, it was obvious, like, you just knew he was in town, but if there was something a little bit more complex. So I would ask, I would ask later when you're not attached to trying to figure it out. I'm not much of a dreamer. I'm really not. But I feel like for you, like, that's how your intuition is speaking through you.

You know, that's how it comes. So I hear voices in my left ear. That's that was the first thing that happened. So we all have our our ways of receiving guidance. It's not. Yeah. Can you actually say what all of those ways are for people who don't know? Yes. So we experience our intuition through through our five senses. So the sixth sense is an extension of each one of the five senses. So.

we have, you know, the gift of hearing, so clear audience. Seeing, we'll see images in our mind's eye and it kind of feels like daydreaming or like you're watching a movie, you close your eyes and you visualize things. That's what it feels like. And I also have that, especially when I'm doing readings, I get images, like images flashing in my mind's eye. There's actually...

Jojo (12:27.054)
the sense of smell. So that's called clear aliens where you can actually smell, which is crazy. didn't actually, I had no idea that this was a thing until I did a session for someone who asked me about a particular address that they were, they were thinking about buying that, that place. And I was like, Oh no, don't buy it. It smells like mold. was like, I smell mold. And then, Oh my gosh.

Yeah, literally, it just came to me, the smell. And they found out later that that place did have mold. crazy. Sometimes you can taste, you know, or smell like the smell thing, sorry, back to smell. like, you know, like somebody, sometimes people smell their grandparents or the, you know, they might smell like the smell of a pipe or cigar. And then their grandfather used to smoke or.

You get what I'm saying? It's like these things come into their being. Taste and touch. Those are also the ways. And then there are other ways. There's claircognizance, where the information just drops in. Okay. You just know. You just know. I think you have that. And clairsentience, when you feel you have so much empathy and you feel...

You feel somebody else, you feel them, you know exactly what's going on with them. You just know. Dreams and repetitive numbers, that's another way. The key to really honing into your intuition is knowing which way your guides or the universe, however you want to call it, which way they speak to you. So are they talking to you? Are they showing you images? It's an intuitive language that works for you.

There's no one standard way to receive messages. How would you like tap into your spirit guides for just like someone who's never really done anything deeper than just, I have this like feeling, but how do I, how do I know? So the first thing is just to recognize that you have spirit guides. Okay. But you, you just know that they're there. So.

Jojo (14:51.328)
even if you don't know, have like kind of blind faith that they're there. And the second thing I would say is to start a dialogue with them. So that's what I did at the beginning. I didn't know. It was like, I thought this whole thing was kind of weird and woo woo, right? I, but I actually, let's say had, you know, I would have an issue or something I wanted to go through, get through, and I would start a dialogue. I was like, hey, spirit guides.

I need help with whatever scenario. Just out loud, just like that. out loud, like a weirdo. Yeah. No such thing. I walk down the street talking out loud and I pretend I'm on the phone. So, and I've talked about that before. So if you see me walking around outside, I'm probably not on the phone. High, high probability I'm just speaking out loud. I love that. That is so funny. So yeah. So.

That's what I did. I would just speak out loud. And it felt weird at the beginning, but now I'm like, we're just having a conversation. So I'd speak out loud, ask them whatever it is I needed to ask them. And I know a lot of us think, well, how will I hear them back and how will I know what they're answering me? That was my next question. Right. So how do know it's not, you're just like logical mind trying to make sense of it. Cause I think even just as I tap into my intuition more and try to build this muscle, let's call it.

I'm like, wait, is that just my desire or what I actually want from the situation or is this? Right. So you have to put your desire or what you want on the side. So you could ask your guides a question and then wait for the answer. You're not going to get an instant answer. It's not like, that's not the way it works. So you put the question aside and you quiet your mind.

because if you come from a place of of needing to know the answer, of having an attachment to the outcome, you are basically like blocking the frequency. So you can't get a real answer. You will not get a real answer. So my advice is to just write down your question or speak it out loud and leave it for a couple of days. And then your guides will speak to you.

Jojo (17:19.406)
in whatever way that resonates with you, they'll speak to you and give you an answer when you're not looking for that answer. It'll just drop in, you'll be like, oh, that's what I need to do. I love that you just said that because already you adjust the mess of what intuition is, the mental, emotional, and spiritual aspect. You have a problem mentally, you think about it, you write it down emotionally, you have to detach so that spiritually you can have that.

message drop in. Usually I address the mess at the end, but you just addressed it right there. So I had to say something about it because that just ties it all together. I love it. I love it. Exactly. You can ask your guides to show you a sign.

So they're not gonna show you like instantly, but they will show you. you know, if let's say, you know, somebody's lost, you know, a parent, somebody that we're really close to. Like I asked my dad all the time, like, you know, show me a sign, show me a sign that you're here and something will happen, but I'm so open to receiving that. That's why I'm seeing those signs. So you're not asking for like,

a yellow butterfly. just like, show me a, like, how do you know what? So I could, you could get specific. You could definitely get specific. I did when I think my dad had, had passed away just a week earlier and, and I was lighting candles for a candle for my mom, for me and for my brother. we lit a candle.

and I asked my dad specifically, will you show me that you're here by flickering my candle? And my candle started to flicker like crazy. And my mom and my brother were like, holy cow, like what's going on? And then so my mom's like, will you do it to me? Will you please flicker my candle? Her candle started going like crazy. And then my brother like jumped on that.

Jojo (19:29.996)
that thing and he was like, yeah, do it to me, do it to me. And his candle was going like crazy. at that point we were like, hi, dad. We know that you're here. Like it was so obvious. Wow. And it was so special because I mean, we just lost him a week earlier. So we, we really felt his presence. was like, we knew, we all knew that he was there. So yeah, you could always ask.

for specific signs or you could just leave it up to them to show you. But you really have to be open to catching those cues, know, to catching it. So for an example, I had a situation where my daughter was literally having like a panic attack about going to her school that year. And I didn't know what to do. I was like, should I send her to school and let her kind of deal with it?

Or do I find another option for her? Even though was like school had already started. So how many options are there actually? So I did my initial research, but then I didn't want to decide. I didn't want to get all stressed about it. Even though it was kind of against my nature to not send her to school.

Like for the first week of school, I'm like, my God, she's missing school. my God, this is not okay. But I kind of like, I let it go and I was like, it is what it is. I don't know where she should be next. I don't know whether she should- me a sign. Show me a sign. I honestly like just left it to the universe. I had in my mind that I wanted to homeschool her, but I didn't wanna, the pain in the butt for me was to go.

buy a desk for her that would match the bedroom, furniture, blah, blah, blah. I just, was like, oh, that's so annoying to have to do that. Even though it's simple for me, it felt overwhelming. Anyways, I had asked for a sign and a couple of days later, my neighbor was moving out of his place and he's like lugging this beautiful white brand new pottery barn desk, like outside. I'm like, what are you doing with that desk?

Jojo (21:55.704)
Why are you leaving it out there? And he was like, we're moving today. And it's the one thing that I couldn't sell when I, you know, moving out. Get out of here. I swear. And it was brand new and it was beautiful. And, and, I'm like, I'll take it. And that was my sign. So I homeschooled her that year.

It really just is like if you are open and receptive to literally, or when you detach from an outcome, I think we get in our own way so much where we want things to turn out a certain way, whether that's, really want this relationship to go a certain way, or I really want my job to promote me, or I really want to get hired by this company, or I mean, the list can go on of how many different possibilities of the things that we really want, but.

are we limiting or boxing ourselves into a certain outcome rather than detaching and actually letting the universe decide what we really need? Exactly. It's great to have plans, but when we over plan and we limit ourselves by our plan, it's like you're screwing yourself because the universe has a much better plan for us. I have a great story about how I met my husband. I was at an event in California.

I used to live in London. So I was at this event and I'd booked a flight for me to go back to London two days later. I'm all packed up. I'm ready to go. I'm in the car about to about to leave back to the airport. I had a fever, full disclosure, and I did not want to tell anybody because I really wanted to get back on that flight. I wanted to go back. I just wanted to leave. So I don't say anything.

Anyways, my mentor happened to be there and he basically, he's very intuitive and he told my brother to go find me and tell me not to get on that flight. And so my brother comes running out and he was like, you know, I was told that you shouldn't get on this flight. And I'm like, what are you talking about? No, I am getting on this flight. He goes, no, you know.

Jojo (24:08.302)
your mentor told me to tell you that you shouldn't get on this flight. So I was like, I didn't want to listen to it, but I really trusted my mentor and his intuitive abilities. Anyways, that same day, so I'd go check back into the hotel and I go to this lunch that was organized at the event and my husband happened to come and sit right next to me that like,

couple hours later, that lunch. Your future husband. My future husband. My gosh. So I know had I gotten on that plane, I would have never met him. In life, we got to kind of go with the flow. You can't have these like strict plans and then get like annoyed about it. Because you don't know what's what's in store for you. You have no idea who you're going to meet, where, when, why.

You just have to go with it. That just hits home for me so much, especially right now in my life, because I feel like I'm so go with the flow when it comes to my career. And I don't know what I'm going to be doing Monday. It's Sunday. We're recording this on a Sunday. And tomorrow, I couldn't tell you where I'm going to be. And I'm so detached from the outcome when it comes into my career, because I have to be, because auditions and

work and you just never know when the next thing is going to come. But when it comes to relationships or the people that come into my life, I somehow try to micromanage it. I have any control over the situation when, yet newsflash, we don't. But in the past few weeks, and this has been my work over the past year really, but really in the past few weeks, I have fully just

let go in a way where I'm like, you know what, show me. I've, I think I thought I had fully surrendered before, but now I've definitely just been like, all right, I can't tell you if I'm never going to do this, if I'm going to do that, if I'm what have you, because the reality is I don't know. And I'm so, again, like I said, detached from other situations. Like last week I was going to

Jojo (26:32.91)
a convention in Orlando and I was supposed to go Friday through Sunday. Two things were happening on Thursday night. One was like a friend's dinner and one was a volunteer situation that I am very active in. The convention had started on a Wednesday. The hotel at the convention was sold out for the Wednesday, Thursday, but I had been able to get a room Friday, Saturday nights.

Anyway, so I look at the convention schedule and I realize that there is something happening Thursday night that would really be smart to be at. I just felt that in my gut. was like, for some reason I need to be there. Fast forward. I end up getting on a plane Thursday night with no hotel reservations. just end up changing my flight and I land. I go to the front desk at that hotel and I was like, Hey, my reservation is actually tomorrow. But I ended up just.

deciding to come early, any chance you have a room and they're like, yeah, we can extend your reservation right now. And I was like, no way. And I ended up meeting every single person the first night that shaped and formed the next three and a half days. Wow. And those people I'm in contact with, it's only been like a little bit of time, but

those were the people that I spent time learning from and getting, and I learned so much from the convention, but these were the people that was the network. These were the resources and it just, it just made everything so much, I guess, better because I had let go of, I'm supposed to go there Friday. And I just was like, I'm being called to do something different. Like, I guess I'm just going to go with it. So trying to now instill that in my

relationship life is very hard because we're so attached to an outcome. Well, for me at least, I'm very attached to an outcome of a situation or a dynamic or a relationship because your emotions are involved, you're attached. But I'm somehow way better at doing that when it comes to my work.

Jojo (28:47.51)
And maybe other people's are flipped. Maybe they're just like, go with the flow when it comes to relationships, but they're so attached to their work. So that was, that was a crazy kind of revelatory experience that I had. But what would you say to people who have such a hard time detaching? Like, is there any like wisdom or? So I used to be like that I in relationships because I.

I was so controlling. felt like I needed to choose that person and I needed to know if they liked me or not. I was almost to the point of obsession. I can fully relate to that. Yeah. So I was like, a lot of us women can, we tend to do that when we're...

you we're trying to control a situation. like, does he like me? Does he not? Does that? And then you put all your energy into like trying to make this outcome happen, even if it's not meant to be. Okay. So what I did that really brought me to the point of meeting my, my now husband is I actually, again, I opened up this dialogue to the universe and I said, you know what?

I am done trying to figure this out. I am done trying to choose who I think is the perfect match for me. I want you to show me and I totally, you know, just do whatever you will and I am totally open and I'm not going to resist. I put myself aside. I just let the universe like bring me the people, show me without

without deciding whether it was a yes or a no. I totally gave it up and let the universe show me. And I literally said, you show me who you think is best for me and I will go with it. So that night when you met your husband at that dinner, how did you not let your overactive mind of the way that you had maybe always done things before, how did you like fully let yourself detach, which is just that continuous dialogue of

Jojo (31:13.464)
like, show me universe or like, how did you really let it be? Yeah, I will just say if he's the one for me, then just show me, show me. But I'm so like, as soon as we start to get into our minds, I wonder if he's the one or if he's not. Like, I wonder if he's my soulmate. I wonder, I wonder, I wonder. We're already like, now it's like obsessing and...

And that's, we're putting ourselves in the equation, but honestly, like with him, I was like, okay, great. He's the one great. If he calls me great, if he doesn't, I'm not attached. I didn't care either way. so in a way I created the space in the opening for the next event to follow. Whatever it was meant to be to just kind of slot into place. Yes. Instead of controlling the outcome. Ooh, we have so much to learn from you.

So much to learn from you. Not perfect, but you know, we're all in a journey. We're all not perfect. So you have a practice, you have a business, you are an intuitive coach. You have master classes where you teach people how to deepen their intuition. I have actually taken one of Michelle's three hour

mastery workshops and it is an experience when you, especially if you feel like you already have an understanding of your intuition, but maybe you're second guessing it. This really for me personally allowed me to figure out how to even deepen it and access it in a more controlled way.

So if someone wants to get a reading from you and what that looks like, can you talk a little bit about how you go about that? Yeah. So what I use is your full name. That's how I access kind of your information. OK. Wait a second. Do we want to do a little sample? Sure. Do you want to? You mean like me do it for you? Yeah.

Jojo (33:38.274)
That's a little scary for me, but do you want to give the listeners a taste of what that looks like? So if they want to experience themselves, they can sign up for a session with you. Yeah, sure. I mean, why not? Why not? Okay.

So what do need from me? So, so, okay. In order to prepare for a reading, I would need your full name and your birthday. That's what I, I use. It's not too, I'm not here to be nosy, but the whole idea is that I'm able to see where there are repetitive patterns maybe that you need to break and give you the tools to overcome those patterns. I'll help you.

get clarity in whatever area you need clarity in. Okay, so I read from the Akashic Records, which is like, it is like a virtual iCloud where I'm able to access your file in order to give you this clarity, to see where the blockages are and to give you the tools to overcome those blockages.

So again, it's not to be nosy. It's not like, is this person my soulmate? Is he my guy? I can't tell you that. OK. But I could tell you what needs to be done in order to draw your soulmate in. What work you need to do. Yes. This is going to get very personal. So I'm going to give you my birthday and my full name.

offline and then we will jump back in. Do you have an area that you would like me to tap into? Relationships. Let's go. Okay. This is so scary. All right. We're getting, we get real here. We go inside out. So I love it. I love it.

Jojo (35:51.726)
You want a general message or something specific? What comes up? What do you hear? Okay. What do you see? I don't know.

Jojo (36:07.616)
Okay, so the words that I kept hearing is that you need to trust that it is happening for you. Relationship is happening and it's in a beautiful way. Okay, so I feel like there is marriage very soon in the books. I feel like it's happening.

And you just need to know, it's almost like you need to have blind faith that it's happening in order for you to kind of relax and chill and know that it's coming. It's in your energy field. So just to be, what is the word?

Receptive? To be receptive, to have that inner knowing, really, it's like that blind faith. It's almost like you need to remove the veil to see that it's happening so that you can relax into being, into being present in relationship, to be open to receiving that relationship. So as a girl who has not been dating for almost a year,

And that part of my life is very not there. Like I've been very focused on work and other things. Right. So the thing is, it's not going to be like this. This relationship is going to come kind of out of nowhere, it feels like. And, and, your guides are asking you to step out of your logic and know that like, you know, your logic says, well, obviously you date a guy for a certain amount of time and then

And then it takes time to get engaged. exactly what my logic is saying, literally right now. So you know what I'm saying? like the relationship doesn't need to go according to how you've always thought relationships should go. like, this is about you letting go of the plan in your mind. Okay. So the plan for you maybe would have been like, well, we need to date for...

Jojo (38:24.642)
least six months before we get engaged or at least a year, I don't feel like it's going to be that way. And I feel like you need to, this is where you need to kind of give over your planning to the universe. and it's not going to be in the timeline that you think. I feel like it's, everything's going to be really sped up very fast. And I feel like it's going to happen very quickly.

So how you're going to meet him, you're like, who is it? How did you know? No, literally. Who is it? Who is it? I'm not telling you. And I don't know. I don't know. But you will know. I feel like you're going to know. You're just going to know because it's going to feel like home and homey and cozy and comfortable.

You're just gonna know, you're gonna know. You're not gonna have a doubt in your mind whether he's the one for you or not.

We love not doubting. feel like there's always doubts. Yeah, but this is where you just need to let go and trust that it's coming. It's happening. Is there anything that needs to be healed, closed, dealt with, or addressed that's maybe blocking this soul, let's call it?

and this union to happen?

Jojo (40:02.614)
Okay, let's see.

Jojo (40:10.894)
So the words I keep hearing is about truly loving yourself and almost having a relationship with yourself before he can come in. They're saying you need to operate in a way that you feel complete right now. So if you're waiting for your guy to do X, Y, and Z in your life,

They want you to do it now and know that your man is gonna come along and be a bonus to your life. He's not going to fill a void in your life. Okay, so you're being asked to start living life in a way that he's already, as though he's already in it, so that you feel complete already. So don't hold out and wait.

to do all these things that you're like, well, when I have my soulmate, I'm gonna go to the south of France or when I have my soulmate, know, whatever. No, you're gonna wait. You're not gonna wait. You're gonna just do it.

Start behaving like he's already here because energetically he's already here. feel it. That is so crazy. So little tidbit. And I've talked about this in a couple of the episodes that I've done specifically about relationships. So if you haven't heard those, go back to Roots Before Romance, What's the Rush? Removing the rose-colored spectacles and also Rethink Dating.

but I talk about how a lot of the relationships in my life that I got into were from a place of lack because of needing to fill a void. And I think that's such a common theme just in like kind of everyday life. Like people are like, well, being in a relationship is gonna make me happy. And then you realize, no, it's not. And we all like deep down know this that someone isn't there to complete us. It's always a bonus.

Jojo (42:20.108)
But I have definitely fallen into that trap myself where basically what you're saying is everything that I am trying to instill. And it's so funny that you, that everything, what you're saying is just like crazily aligned because this morning I was doing my morning, you know, speaking out loud, meditating, all of the things that I have also talked about in previous episodes that I do. I was looking up at my ceiling and I was like,

show me if this person is going to be in my life, let it happen. I am detaching and I am surrendering fully to the outcome. So I'm, I'm letting you take the wheel while yes, logically I am going to be actualizing my life and taking the steps necessary to push or move the needle, but I'm not going to be controlling the direction that that is going. And I think that

is definitely very like new for me to just trust and let go.

but it's so, so, so, so scarily aligned with what you're saying because I don't, for the first time, feel lack. I don't feel like, well, I'm not looking actively to be in relationship. I don't feel like I am in a place of, my God, I need it, or I need to be with this person in order to go to this restaurant or to go to Italy or the South of France or wherever. It's like, really do truly in my body feel.

No, I've got this. And the more that I'm on my path and on my direction and doing the things that are right for me and good for my soul and filling my own cup, that person is just going to naturally slot into place because I'm already on my path rather than trying to veer off and find them somewhere else. It has nothing to do with my trajectory. And I think that's where a lot of people get so stuck. And that is also where I've gotten so stuck and been totally pulled out of my life rather than just being on course.

Jojo (44:26.252)
