I Had a HUGE Money Shift & My Husband's Manifestation Story

Check out my new meditation album here!
My latest journal, the Your Mindful Journal is here!
This is a fun and uplifting episode where I share my own stories about a huge money shift I’ve recently experienced, as well as chatting with my husband Luke about a new job he manifested.
I started recording this podcast on August the 1st, as I was in a completely negative headspace with money. In return, I was receiving bills, less pay - negative outcome after negative outcome. I knew I was attracting it all myself because money is just energy. Previously I have changed my relationship with money from a negative one to a positive one, so I knew I could do it again. This time, I wanted to document it for you.
I then picked up recording this episode in December, after I had achieved what I wanted to! I had changed my relationship with money. I effortlessly started bringing in money in so many areas that felt exciting, passionate and EASY! And I tell you the steps I took to get there in this episode.
To finish off the episode, I brought in my husband, Luke to the studio. He shares a manifestation story of his own where he chose hope instead of fear, which resulted in a job that was more perfect than he ever could have imagined. It’s an inspiring story that you may want to share with your loved ones, who might not be totally convinced by the law of attraction, or maybe just need a little bit of inspiration. Luke could have easily leant into fear - instead, he took actionable steps, remained optimistic and trusted the process.
Also - what are your thoughts on Luke and I recording some Children’s meditations?

Speaker
Hello and welcome back to the Pass Around the Smile podcast. I cannot believe this is my second last podcast of the year. I might end up putting out another one. Who knows? But it's December. We are so close to Christmas. It's such an exciting time of year for so many different reasons. And I'm so glad that I am in your ears right now and you are tuning in into this episode because it is fun. It's different. And we have a special guest and the special guest is my husband. He is coming in for just a little part of this episode to share a really incredible manifestation story that has recently happened to him that he has manifested himself and i'm honestly just so proud of him and i'm so excited to share it with you guys because i think it's really going to inspire you but i think it could also serve as something that you can take and share with your partners or your siblings or friends or family members who aren't necessarily as woo-woo as
00:01:23
Speaker
you and I maybe but for those people in your lives that you know either don't believe in the law of attraction at all or maybe do believe in it but don't really know how to use it or you know a lot of men in general just don't really know about it but I think it's really cool that Luke kind of harnessed the power of the law of attraction and created something really really incredible in his life so We're going to share that and the reason why this episode is different and fun is because a little bit of it, I actually recorded back in August one as a part one.
Cleo's Mindset Journey and Money Struggles
00:01:55
Speaker
I recorded that part one back when my money mindset was absolutely terrible and I'm recording part two within this episode now to tell you how I changed it.
00:02:04
Speaker
So it's really exciting. But first, before we jump into everything, I want to tell you what has been going on with me. And yes, I am sponsoring my own episode today. Pass Around the Smile is sponsoring this episode because I have bought out so many new things recently and I'm so incredibly proud of them all. First and foremost, I have just released my five day online New Year course, which is called the Self and Soul Reset. It is packed with so much goodness. I am aiming to have you feeling refreshed, aligned, connected, and ready to manifest your deepest desires within 2025. I want you to start the year feeling so focused and clear, and it just excites me the content that I have put into this course. I'm actually getting shivers talking about it. Last year, I, of course, held the course Manifest Magic. I said, of course, held the course, but you know what I mean. I held Manifest Magic, and there were hundreds of you who did
00:02:58
Speaker
my new year course with me and just so many of us as a collective doing this work together releasing our fears getting rid of limiting beliefs acknowledging the guilt that we feel and the anger and the hurt and all that kind of actually acknowledging it and dealing with it and moving it away so we can actually free ourselves to move forward and then actually use the law of attraction. So it, you know, it works. Anyway, I won't go too far into it because you can go to my website and read about it. I will put the link in the show notes. It's only $60, which means you're only investing $12 a day. And that's $12 a day to start the year.
00:03:36
Speaker
in a really positive way in the most positive way possible for you there is no pressure with my courses they are fun yes but they are also transformative and this is a course live with me you can do it anywhere in the world because it's online and i'm just so excited to do this with you so Sign up, come along for the journey, start your year in a really, really positive way. The other two things I want to let you guys know about is my brand new journal. It is called the Your Mindful Journal. It's a beautiful linen journal with gold embossed foil. And oh my gosh, it took me so long to create. It's not just an ordinary journal. It's broken up into four sections. So we have the release section, which serves as a really safe space for you to release your anger, your fears.
00:04:21
Speaker
your judgments, your jealousy, so many of my community have come to me in the past going I don't want to write anything negative in my journal because I'm scared I'm going to manifest it or the journals too pretty I don't want to write anything negative into it. So I have designed an actual space for you where you can release your negativity because that is one of the most powerful parts of journaling. The next section is the connection section because we know that we have to be connected to ourselves, to our soul, which is a lot on what the New Year course is about as well. We have to be connected in order to manifest our desires and in order to live a life in flow. The third section is manifest, which is the most magical section of the journal. And the fourth section is gratitude because we all know that gratitude is the highest form of vibrational energy
00:05:10
Speaker
And it is the most powerful and quickest way to get out of any mood we might be in and a really, really good tool when it comes to manifestation and to kind of solidify all of our dreams. I have been using this journaling technique for years and years and years without really realizing what I was doing.
00:05:29
Speaker
i then put it in a journal for you guys because I listened to you you were all telling me you were struggling to journal properly you weren't actually making yourself uncomfortable you weren't asking yourself the right questions so among these four sections you will find journal prompts and guides to kind of guide you through, but then a lot of free space to let your thoughts run free as well. So have a look at the journal. I love it. All the links will be in the show notes. And last but not least is my meditation album. I am so proud of this. I had to wait for a very long time to write and record this because I had to wait until the time was right. I have put out one of the walking meditations that's on there, which is my latest episode. So you can go back one and listen to that.
00:06:10
Speaker
but there are 10 other meditations on there and there are some really different fun ones like there's driving ones, there's sleeping ones, there's walking ones, there's ones to play behind you when you're working, being productive. The links are there if you want them and ah thank you guys for all your support with all of this new stuff because I'm feeling the love already and I've been so busy packing your orders and answering your questions and I just love you guys so much. You are all so amazing and I cannot wait for you guys to join me in the self and soul reset starting On the 6th of January for five days, the course content will become available on the 1st of January because some of you I know like to get stuck right in to that productive magical mindset right on the first day of the year. So the self and soul reset is open now and I cannot wait to have you.
Changing Perspective: Welcoming Abundance
00:06:58
Speaker
It is currently the start of August 2024 and I am feeling so negative about money. I have a really bad relationship with money at the moment and it's something that I have felt before for years and years and years when I was in my early twenties and I have done two episodes on this if you want to go back and listen on the money mindset episodes but I know that I have felt like this before and I have got out of it before. I have changed my negative relationship with money to a positive relationship with money. So I know I can do it again. So I wanted to today, the start of August to record part one. And then in this same episode, I'm going to record a part two.
00:07:42
Speaker
when I reach where I'm trying to get with my relationship with money. So it might take a month. It might take three months. It might take a year. Oh my God. Imagine if a year later I'm coming on this episode being like, okay, it's been a year, but I made it. No, I don't think it's going to take a year. I'm not going to put a time limit on it as such, but I am working on my money mindset. I am working on changing my relationship with money to a positive one yet again.
00:08:11
Speaker
The exciting thing I think about this is that I know how quickly changes can happen when you align your energy differently. I know that the money coming in for me right now is a reflection of my inner reality, of what my mind is saying and how my mind is feeling toward money right now. It's my fault.
00:08:32
Speaker
It is absolutely my fault that not much money is coming in at the moment. I'll give you some examples. I'm sure some of you can relate. So at the moment when Luke and I talk about our finances, I immediately get tight. I feel this pressure. I feel a little bit sick in my tummy. My chest goes a little bit tight and I just kind of don't want to talk about it. So first of all, I'm not facing it.
00:08:55
Speaker
And when we're not facing something, it means we're scared of something, right? So I am completely blocking money in a sense. And we've got to remember that money is just energy. So I'm completely blocking it because I'm like, I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to talk about it. I want to know about it. It's too hard right now. So I'm completely blocking it. And the poor energy of money is going, Oh, Cleo.
00:09:19
Speaker
We're right here. we We want to give you money, but you're literally not letting us. We want to give you ourselves, but you're not letting us kind of thing. I've been noticing these things in myself. Not only in times like that, I'll find myself opening my bank account and kind of cringing. I will find myself sending out invoices and being disappointed that the amount is so low instead of so high. I have found myself sending out emails looking for more work, I guess, like selling my products.
00:09:49
Speaker
and expecting the reply to be negative, to be a no. Well, of course it's going to be a no. Of course it's going to be negative if I'm expecting negative. But of course I'm human and I don't want to expect too much because I don't want to be disappointed. But we have to find a nice balance there where we are open to abundance. We are open to possibilities. Now, I think for me personally, a lot of this has come from the energy of the world right now. We are in, I don't want to say this, I don't want to say this on my podcast because I don't want you guys to feel it but I think a lot of you are probably feeling it anyway and I'm gonna turn it around of course in part two but apparently apparently we're in a cost of living crisis and I have taken that on I think I've taken that energy on as a little bit of an excuse as well to like maybe not work as hard obviously I
00:10:41
Speaker
As you guys know, I'm a new mum, so I'm not working as much. So of course I'm making less money. I always knew that this was coming, but I didn't know that the feeling would be so uncomfortable and so scary. And I didn't expect myself to fully lean into that discomfort as much as I have and let it overtake my mind and change my relationship with money to a bad one again.
00:11:05
Speaker
and I guess I'm leaning into this oh we're in a cost of living crisis like it's a really bad time for everyone as kind of an excuse as to why I am feeling this way about money and why I'm not making as much as I want to be making it's like an excuse to be like oh it's okay because everyone is because it's a bad time but what I'm doing when I am talking about how bad this cost of living crisis is and how you know oh a quick shop now is 70 dollars minimum oh you know this is so expensive and that's so expensive and oh how are we ever going to buy a new house if like you know a knockdown is a million dollars i've said that like so much over the past few weeks how am i going to manifest money if i'm talking like that and if i'm thinking like that and if i am leaning in to this
00:11:52
Speaker
negativity that the world is feeling around money right now. Money is just energy. And I can't help but think as a collective, we are all told this. We're told the news keeps telling us we're in a cost of living crisis. I've said it like five times now. I don't want to keep saying it, but Here we are. If we are all leaning into this as a collective, money is not collectively coming either because we're all leaning into this narrative of it's hard to get money right now. So this is part one and I promise you I'm going to turn this around. I am so excited to see how my shifts
00:12:28
Speaker
create big changes for me money wise. I am going to do some journaling. I'm going to figure out exactly what it is that I want. I'm going to figure out exactly where it is that I'm struggling, that I'm feeling crappy. And then I'm going to work on changing my money story. I'm going to work on changing my relationship with money. I'm going to work on remembering that it is just energy just like everything else. What I'm going to try and do is I'm going to try and look at something that I find easy to manifest and remind myself that that energy of that thing that I find easy to manifest is just the same as money. It's just my mindset that sees it differently.
00:13:07
Speaker
So that's where I'm at right now. I'm being honest, I'm being open and vulnerable. It has been, yeah, a little bit of a struggle for me lately and I'm leaning into it and I'm not helping myself. So I am helping myself now and I'm going to make some changes and I hope these changes can really inspire you to make changes and change your money story and change your relationship as well.
00:13:29
Speaker
So I'm going to stop this here and I will see you when I see you. Who knows how long it will take. but Okay. So here I am. I'm recording this podcast now on December the 12th. I recorded that first bit on August the first. So it has been four and a half months ish. The 12th of December fun fact is actually Lucanize anniversary, which is so cute. We've been together 13 years and married three, and he's coming on the podcast on this episode soon.
00:13:55
Speaker
But first of all, I want to take you through what I changed and where I'm at with my money mindset. I have done it. I have changed my relationship from a negative one to a positive one. And it feels so good for so many different reasons. But I think the main reason is I showed myself that I could do it. And I now get to share that with you guys. And I hope that this encourages you to believe that you can also do the same. I think the first and most simple thing that I did was really look at my words and my vocabulary. I started deleting things out of my speech. Like that's too expensive. That's not worth the money. ah Money keeps disappearing out of my account. Oh my God, we're getting so many bills. Anything that was negative around money, I just deleted it from my vocabulary. Now, of course we have to be realistic. Of course there are bills coming in still. And of course,
00:14:45
Speaker
You know, some things are expensive, yada, yada, yada, but we have a choice. You have a choice to lean into that and to give it energy, therefore receive a lot of that back. Or you have a choice to step away and focus on the positive, focus on what you do have rather than what you don't have. And that is what I started to do as well. Instead of looking at the money that I was losing or that I didn't have in my account, I started looking at the money I did have in my account. When bills started coming in,
00:15:13
Speaker
I started thanking the universe that I could pay this bill. Not, oh my God, I have another bill that's so annoying. I really wanted to spend this money on X, Y and Z. Oh my God, I'm so thankful that we have running water and I am so thankful that we have the money to pay this bill. How cool is that? And then forgetting about it, putting it away, moving on and distracting myself. I think distraction is a really, really good technique. Now, if you've listened to my money mindset episodes. I actually have a part one and part two on the podcast already from back. I definitely encourage you to go back and listen to those ones but I actually took some of my own advice because I went back and re-listened again and even I forgot what I had said and one of the main things that I remember used to
00:15:58
Speaker
really get me down was going out to dinner or getting takeaway or spending money at the shops and then not actually enjoying the thing that I bought or the experience itself, because I spent all of that time thinking about the money I had just spent. But the thing is, you've already spent it, right? You've already got the food, you've ordered it, or you've bought the dress that you're wearing it. So why not enjoy it?
00:16:24
Speaker
What we do when we aren't enjoying it, and we're calculating in our mind how much we spent, we are literally resisting the flow. And we are telling the universe, I don't really deserve this. And we're telling the universe that I didn't have enough to get this, so I should not be enjoying it. And we're almost punishing ourselves, which is really, really not a great way to feel worthy, is it? And we all know that to feel worthy and deserving of what you want is the way that you manifest.
00:16:53
Speaker
Self-worth is the foundation to living a happy life. And if you are buying yourself things or buying presents for others even, and then making yourself feel sick over it, then that is not loving yourself. That's not filling yourself up. That's not taking care of yourself. That's not being kind to yourself. So really look at your energy around spending money. How do you feel? How are you treating yourself? How are you treating money? Because it is an energy.
00:17:17
Speaker
Just like us. We are energy. Money is energy. We all know that $20 is the same as $20,000 if we believe it to be so. If we believe that attracting $20,000 is so hard and would take years to save, then it will be hard and it will take years to save. But if we think $20 we could find it on the street, grandma could put it in my card, whatever, then we will attract $20 really easily. So it's about training our mind to believe that those amounts are the same.
00:17:46
Speaker
I think it's so exciting how quickly things can change. I want you to be listening to this podcast and feeling really excited because when I recorded that in August, things started to change really quickly. And yes, I'm recording it now because I wanted to wait until I was in a really good place with money, but I actually could have recorded it a couple of months earlier.
00:18:06
Speaker
Things started changing really quickly for me. When we change the way we look at things, the things we look at change.
Success in Money Mindset Transformation
00:18:12
Speaker
And I got so sick of my negativity toward money because it felt yucky and it was also manifesting right in front of my eyes. Like I was manifesting in the wrong way. I was manifesting lack, not enough.
00:18:25
Speaker
I was manifesting more bills, fines, things like that. And as I mentioned in the part one, it was all my fault. I knew it was my fault. I was feeding into it. But the second I changed, the universe started responding and boy, did it feel good because it makes you feel powerful. And it reminds you that when you start to manifest successfully, that you do hold the power and that not only can you manifest that thing that you're manifesting, you can manifest anything if you're manifesting that thing.
00:18:53
Speaker
And I think in my case, I wasn't manifesting money as such. I was manifesting a better relationship with money because as I said, I was feeling sick when we were talking about money. Now, when we talk about money, I feel excited. I'm so proud of what I've saved. I can't believe the connections that I have made.
00:19:10
Speaker
within pass around the smile, which are bringing more money and even the conversations that I've been having around money where people are telling me to charge more or know I want to pay you more for this. I'm like, what do what do you mean? Like the possibilities for you, my listener are endless.
00:19:28
Speaker
My girlfriends and I were talking about this the other night where so often we would jump to all of the things that could go so incredibly wrong and completely make up situations in our mind. So if we're talking about money, let's say that we are needing $3,000 by the end of the month to pay all of our bills. And we start thinking of all the reasons why we are not going to make $3,000.
00:19:51
Speaker
And then all of the things that would happen to us if we did not make that $3,000 and if we could not make all of our payments, maybe you'd have to sell your favorite dress. You'd have to move back into your parents house. Oh my gosh, what a disaster you'd have to.
00:20:05
Speaker
you know, get a third job or whatever it is. But what about the opposite? What about all the things that could go so incredibly right? So start making up these fake scenarios in your mind like you do when it's negative and scary, but for the opposite, for when it's exciting, new, cool opportunities coming at you from left, right and center.
00:20:25
Speaker
Maybe you will get a bonus at work. Maybe you will get money in your Christmas card. Maybe you will get, I don't know, a lotto ticket and win. Maybe you will be sent money that was owed to you years before when a company went bankrupt. You don't know. The opportunities, the possibilities for money coming to you are absolutely endless if you believe it to be so. Money is just energy.
00:20:48
Speaker
get your head around that. You deserve money just as everyone else does. Literally when I changed my mindset everything changed so so quickly and I now look at where I am compared to August and I'm like oh wow. Something else that I did is I also started applying myself so I did start working harder but I don't want you to think oh she's saying you have to work really hard to make money. I wasn't working really hard honestly since I've had indigo I have not worked really, really hard. Like, oh, I have. I have. But passionately hard. But these ideas were flowing to me. Ideas of how to make more money easily. They were just coming when I was out riding my bike or doing a meditation. These ideas would flow to me because I was now open to receiving them.
00:21:34
Speaker
Then I would put those ideas into play so I would take actionable, inspired steps, listening to what the universe was giving me, and then it would unfold, equaling for me, in this case, more money. And I was like, oh my gosh, it is working. And it's not hard. It's actually easy. And when I started feeling into that flow, that's when it flowed so effortlessly and it started to feel really good and really exciting.
00:21:59
Speaker
I mentioned a couple of episodes ago how I all of a sudden started getting all of these sponsors on the podcast. All of a sudden, every single episode of my podcast was being sponsored. I didn't even reach out to all of these people. Some I did, and they would reply back straight away being like, yes, this is a perfect fit for us. We can't wait to advertise on your podcast.
00:22:18
Speaker
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Some would come to me. And it was all just so easy. It was never once forced or hard. So really looking at where you are trying to get your money from, does it feel forced? Does it feel eager? Does it feel rushed? Because you are probably working from your head, not your heart. And this might be frustrating because you're like, well, how do I not make it feel forced? Give yourself space, give yourself time. Ask the universe to co-create with you.
00:22:47
Speaker
So like I said before, when I would do things like go for a bike ride or meditate or walk and actually stop for a second, I would almost get these spiritual downloads telling me what to do. Give this a go. Here's a creative idea. And it would feel exciting. And I would take it and I would run with it. And then I would be shown that I was supported and it felt good. So I would do it again and then slowly, day by day,
00:23:11
Speaker
I was creating so much more belief around the law of attraction, around money, how money is good, money comes easily and boom, it did and it grew. Something else that I was doing was I was giving money, I was spending money knowing that it is just energy and it will come back easily in exciting ways. So let's say I was buying a Christmas gift and in the back of my head I'm thinking that's really expensive, I probably shouldn't be spending that much on this person,
00:23:37
Speaker
I would squash those thoughts and I would think, how good does it feel to give? And how good does it feel to be able to spend this amount of money on this person because I love them. I can't wait to see their face when they open it. Spend the money, move on, distract myself and just feel really good knowing that that money is going to come back tenfold because it's just energy and I felt good spending it. Money comes, money goes. Law of rhythm, it supports money as well. Up, down, in, out.
00:24:04
Speaker
We've got to get comfortable in the flow. I also heard someone say to me, the more you spend, the more you get back. And I don't want to put like unsolicited advice out there because I'm not a money guru. But I kind of liked that. And I would think that when I was spending money, when we're out to dinner, I was like, well, the more I spend, the more I get back in an energetic sense. So we get more beautiful food, more beautiful drinks. We're staying for longer. We're chatting with our friends. We're having an incredible time.
00:24:32
Speaker
I started really feeling into the way experiences would make me feel that money got me. Something else that Luke and I have started to do is we started to go to open homes that we love. And sure, right now, it's not the time for us, but we will walk into that open home like it is the time for us. So we are acting as if, which is a huge part of the law of attraction. If you haven't listened to, I believe it's episode three of like my whole podcast. So go right back.
00:25:02
Speaker
I talk about acting as if you have already manifested what it is that you want to manifest. So we want to manifest a beautiful family home with a pool. So we will go to these open homes, walking in, feeling so confident, inspired by what we're seeing, excited. And you know what my favorite bit is? My favorite bit is when the real estate agents are like, what are you looking for? And I'm like, well, we're in this beautiful house. Like this is what I'm looking for. Like I love the pool. I love the huge outdoor entertainment area. And he's like, all right, like, are you ready to buy? And I will say, yeah, yeah, we are. We are. We're just looking though, like, you know, trying to find something that we, you know, align completely with. It's going to be our family home. It's going to be for our forever home. And we play along.
00:25:43
Speaker
like we are going to put an offer into this house, even though right now we are not. It is so fun for one. So why not just do it for fun? It is so inspiring for two. And most importantly, we are acting as if we have the money ready to go to buy this beautiful home. We walk out of that house giggling with each other, talking about what we said to the real estate agent. We're not lying. We're just having fun. We're just playing around and We can afford this house. Of course, we can afford this house. You can afford whatever house you believe that you can afford. Again, right now, it's not the time, but it will be. So we're getting ideas. It's helping us feel inspired, excited, and walking out of these homes, as I said before, like we almost, Luke and I talked about it. It's like we thought we were really going to put an offer in, and then you have to kind of bring yourself back to real life and think you're not, but you almost want to stay in that.
00:26:37
Speaker
kind of visualization that you have created because you know how powerful it is. Like how powerful that we have actually put ourself in a state where we get so excited, we might put an offer into this house, we've picked out our rooms, you know what it's like when you go to an open home. And then we leave being like, oh my God, like this is so cool. And because you're having conversations with these real estate agents that you don't know, you're literally creating the scenario in your life that you have enough and that this is your dream home and that you, if you want to put an offer in, you can that night.
00:27:07
Speaker
So it's been really really fun and I think it's really helped Luke and I step into that next level mindset of this This is what we deserve and this is what we want so we may as well act as if we have it now we know how powerful visualization is where our minds can't tell the difference between what we are imagining and and what we are actually experiencing in real life. And when I realized that, you know, an hour later, we were still feeling the high vibrations of being in that house and maybe having that house as our own one day, I realized how powerful this technique was. ah Not technique, this little exercise, I think, that we're doing. I don't know what it is. but
00:27:45
Speaker
I urge you, go to open homes if you are wanting a new home or even if you're not, if you just want to get in ideas for your own renovations or if you just want to help yourself get into a better money mindset, go into a beautiful home and feel the feelings that that home, the energy of that home give you because you deserve it.
00:28:05
Speaker
The last thing I want to talk about was just another thing that manifested. And this is alongside a lot of stockists placing orders for my Pass Around the Smile products. Obviously I talked about the sponsors on the podcast. I was making more sales on my online store. It was also exciting.
00:28:23
Speaker
I got myself, and I talked about this a couple of episodes ago in the manifesting episode, a incredible management team who now manage me for my Cleomassie Instagram, my sponsored posts, my collaborations. It has been a huge weight lifted off my shoulders to have someone working for me, but also believing in me and really advocating for me and for what I believe in and what I want to share online and who I want to show up as. So it has been.
00:28:49
Speaker
So incredible. But when I shared my rates with them of what I used to charge, they kind of let me know that, my goodness me, Cleo, you should be charging much more.
00:29:02
Speaker
And this was like an answer from the heavens above that I kind of put out there to be like universe, like I have this awful mindset with money at the moment. I know I'm worth more, but I'm struggling to believe that I'm worth more. I'm struggling to know or believe where this money is going to come from. Can you please show me that there are opportunities out there and there are other options available. And this beautiful management team have really helped me step into my worth again and know what I am worth. And it just came as another sign of Here is money and you are deserving of it and this is what you're worth and this is what you should be charging so money came in in that sense as well so money right now is surrounding me I feel back in my power with money I am understanding how easy it is to attract money I'm enjoying making money.
00:29:50
Speaker
I am coming up with all of these creative ideas, honestly, every single day of how I can make more money. And I'm really leaning in to the fact that we do not need to be ashamed about wanting or desiring money. I talk about this a lot, so I'm not going to go on and on, but when you want money, just make sure you have a reason behind it. So right now, I want to make more money because we want a beautiful family home to bring our kids up in and create beautiful memories by the pool.
00:30:18
Speaker
and in our favorite area on the Gold Coast. And that is enough to make money and feel good about making the money that we desire. And I've really stepped into it and I'm just, I'm feeling the magic. I'm experiencing the magic and money is good. Money is flowing and it can flow to you as well. One more thing I wanted to add. I actually wrote this down when I was listening to the recording of me from August was I said, I'm a new mum. Of course I was going to make less money. I knew this was coming.
00:30:48
Speaker
Oh, Cleo. It broke my heart when I heard that. This goes to anyone, whether you are a mum or not, no matter what circumstance you are in right now in your life, nothing should ever dictate your future. My belief was I'm a new mum, of course I was going to make less money because society told me that that's how it goes. But that is so untrue. But I made that belief true in my head and it manifested. And it wasn't until I changed my mindset that I I let that belief go and change. So how about we get Luke in the podcast studio? He's currently just outside the door watching Indigo. um So we'll hand Indigo over to mum, get Luke in, and I want to share with you guys his really inspiring manifestation story, with which isn't necessarily around money. It's around work, career, opportunity. So I think it will
Luke's Manifestation Journey and Insights
00:31:40
Speaker
really inspire you all.
00:31:41
Speaker
Okay, Luke is in the studio. I had to say, to him I don't sit with other guests like this on the podcast because we currently have our legs around each other so that we can both be close to one microphone because I can't be bothered to set up two. It's very close proximity. Not what I expected. So don't have your feet like that. You need a podcasting. rookie Rookie. Well, welcome everyone. This is my husband, Luke. Luke is a teacher, primary school teacher, and has agreed to come onto the podcast to share his story, recent manifestation story, which is really inspiring. So we'll just jump straight in. Do you want to start, Luke, by maybe telling them where this situation kind of started with the whole transfer fears kind of coming out?
00:32:34
Speaker
um Yeah, I guess so in education and working for the government um there's an understanding that teachers may be required to teach in um any area of need, um therefore requiring a transfer from their position if they meet certain criteria. So um over the last couple of years I've met those criteria of potentially being put forward for a required transfer to an area of need um which is in a teacher shortage. um But obviously with the birth of indigo in the last
00:33:19
Speaker
12 months it's been something that I didn't really want to do. I wanted to be closer to home, not further away. um So before the required transfer came to me, I wanted to get on the front foot and try and source my own transfer. Not just stay at my school, but find somewhere that's a good fit and also closer to home so I can be closer to family.
00:33:49
Speaker
Yeah. So you did mention to me as well, when this force transfer list came out or when, you know, people were talking about it, that there was like a lot of fear around it because these teachers may get an email one day that's like, Hey, you have to move away from the school that you've been at for years, your comfort zone, maybe, and you have to move, you know, quite far away. A lot of kilometers from your house.
00:34:13
Speaker
um to a school where you know no one, like there was a lot of fear around it but something that you said to me that I thought was really cool and really inspiring was you weren't leaning into that fear even though it would be hard.
00:34:30
Speaker
not to, you're like well I can either lean into the fear and feel uncomfortable and scared and talk about it with everyone and possibly manifest a transfer or you can step away and kind of think positively and move in a different direction that feels right for you.
00:34:50
Speaker
Yeah, I guess there is a lot of fear in yeah moving out of your comfort zone and into a random new school with a lot further travel, um especially with traffic. um So yeah, I guess I wanted to take actionable steps that made me feel in control um and I think not sit back and just wait or hope, um which I feel like a lot of people do and just think that it may not happen to them. um It's not a whole bunch of people who are being required to move.
00:35:30
Speaker
but it could be two or three from a number of different schools all around the Gold Coast. um So yeah I just put it out to the universe and we did my cards a number of times um and just always sort of had in my mind like a plan um which I yeah acted upon and um yeah things came off recently.
00:35:54
Speaker
Yeah and so before we kind of get to the end of it and all the exciting parts so we can let them know how it all came together, the cards that you were getting every time was like the let go of negativity card, it was career card, it was recognition, like it was all about career and exciting things happening.
00:36:12
Speaker
And, you know, I think there was a part of both of us where we pull your cards and be like, oh, my God, it's like this is so exciting because you really do believe the cards. hey you like Yeah, I think um the card spreads that I would pull were just reassuring um to know that things were going to work out how they needed to, but also.
00:36:35
Speaker
not reassuring enough to just sit back and do nothing. Yes. And I think that's what I was going to say as well. You said it really well is that some people think with the law of attraction, I'll just shut my eyes and visualize and boom, it'll happen. But no, we have to take those actionable steps that feel inspired to get to where we want to be. And I think that's what you did really well is nothing was ever forced.
00:36:57
Speaker
you reached out to people that you had worked with and it felt good, it felt exciting. Like you were so excited when you sent those emails. Yeah, I think in in any part of life, there's a lot of who you know, as well as what you know and how much you know. But um yeah, when I trusted in the ask,
00:37:17
Speaker
phase that was me reaching out to a bunch of contacts and people who I've maintained good relationships with that I've taught with or taught for um in the past and yeah it was exciting to reach out to a bunch of people and hear back from most of them and then meet with a couple of them. Yeah like it was an exciting process and I also remember when you were going to these meetings you were like I'm just going to catch up with them I'm not expecting anything so it's like you were going knowing your worth but you weren't placing your worth to like a result which I think allowed the universe to actually give you what you needed and you weren't forcing anything like you were in a complete place of trust which was very hard at that time where you could have got an email the next day saying you have to move like an hour and a half away
00:38:09
Speaker
yeah um Yeah, I guess, well, you've got your four steps of manifestation. um The ask, believe, receive and gratitude. i But I think I believed first. um So I had that belief and then I put the emails out, which was asking um and yeah, had some really great meetings and like super opportunities.
00:38:35
Speaker
Potentially in the future, but yeah um managed to um Pull one off and like you said the meetings weren't they didn't feel like Scary interviews. They just felt like catching up with past connections and colleagues who should we shared common interests in each other's lives and I guess they trusted um and knew like what I was doing in my profession was good work um rather than quizzing me on it and making me feel that pressure. So um yeah we had really great conversations and it's led to a pretty good outcome. Yeah and I think
00:39:17
Speaker
what is cool too is that you do love what you do and Luke works in the inclusion space in school so he's not on classroom anymore he works in inclusion and you genuinely love helping these kids like you come home from school and you tell me all of the stories and like you know this kid is really thriving in this area now and like it feels so good to help and blah blah blah So I think the universe is rewarding you because you a are living your true life purpose at this time in your life for now.
00:39:48
Speaker
And two, you are moving through it because you are enjoying it. And I think so many people in life unfortunately don't enjoy what they do, um but you do. And I think that really helped with manifesting this outcome, which could not have been better. And maybe talk a little bit about how like the, like you got an inclusion job and you were willing to to go back to classroom, but you also were like, I know I'm good at inclusion and I know I can help a whole bunch of kids. yeah um Yeah, so I went into the inclusion space a year and a half ago after many years of PE and before that classroom. um So i've I'm pretty fresh in it and I still have so much to learn but that's what's exciting about that space for me at the moment and that's why I want to work in that area.
00:40:38
Speaker
um And I know that there's a lot of good people um that I'm going to learn from in the next few years in this new role. So I'm really excited about that um and really passionate about helping those neurodiverse learners and students with social, emotional difficulties and bringing out the best in them and enabling them to access their learning and do the best that they can. There's so much meaning and love and passion behind
00:41:10
Speaker
this manifestation and I think that's why it worked so well. It worked at a time where people want jobs in schools in metro areas. It worked in a time where there wasn't a whole heap of inclusion full-time jobs out there. It's like it all just happened. It could not be more perfect. It's close to our home. They're also honoring your leave.
00:41:32
Speaker
at the start of the year, like Luke's on Kara's leave at the moment because I have to go back to full-time work. It's like, it could not have worked out better, but I think, I know i know that it's because of how you went about manifesting this for yourself.
00:41:46
Speaker
Yeah um it's probably also important important to point out like there was people along the way who said like that's going to be really hard to do. um Gold Coast is a really desirable place to work and people are trying to get into this region pretty hard and the movement in our region at the moment is pushing people north so that others can move in. um So yeah, the consistent message to me from colleagues was, oh, you're going to find it really difficult. You might have to look for a move close to our school or further away. um But I just made an effort not to buy into that noise. And as I said, I always believed that I would be able to find this opportunity. um Yeah, and I'm pretty grateful for it.
00:42:36
Speaker
Very proud of you. Thank you. It's really cool.
Future Plans: Kids' Meditations and More
00:42:40
Speaker
ah Anything else you want to touch on, on the little story? We haven't covered it all. Yeah, I think we got it. So I did want to say that Luke and I have decided to record some kids' meditations. Obviously I record meditations for adults and I have my kids cards, but also Luke is a teacher, very passionate about it in the inclusion space. And you guys now know him and have heard his voice. So if you're a parent or if you're an auntie or an uncle or you have little cousins, any little loves in your life, please comment and let us know if you would be interested
00:43:11
Speaker
in these kids' meditations. We're thinking that I'll record a few and Luke will record a few in his voice because there might be some kids that prefer a female's voice or prefer a male's voice um but yeah I think that'll be pretty fun.
00:43:24
Speaker
Yeah, I think it's a great idea and now we have to do it because it's it's on podcast. I've said it. Well, thank you, Luke, for coming in. I think that story is really going to inspire the community and thank you for sharing. And everyone, thank you for listening to another episode. I will be back with the episode where I pull a card for each Zodiac sign and then write a mantra for each Zodiac sign before the end of the year. And please, if you are interested in The Self and Soul Reset, my New Year course. The link is in the show notes. My new journal is on my website and my new meditation album. Thank you so much for being the best community ever. I will talk to you soon.
