SPEAKER_00:

Hey guys, welcome back to the Fitzen Project. I am really just hoping you're loving what you're hearing, what I'm putting out there. The special guests that I've been having have been completely life-changing and healing and really just tuning my fork, you know. I've Thank you so much. hope that their stories have resonated with you and maybe you've been able to create some of these little moments for yourself of reflection and I just trust that these little self-reflection moments have been able to help you make some micro decisions of how your next few hours are going to be spent or maybe even your next day because I That's the real hope. That's the real reason of my season for putting this podcast together and sharing with all of you, these beautiful souls that have come forth and willingly and lovingly spent time with me to provide their story and their healing path to be out here for the better and for the greater good. So With that, I have something really cool to invite you to. And it just, please, it's just an invitation. And I am just so romantically involved with what I've got going on. It is so beautiful, and everything that's been curated has been curated with so much thought. And right now, I have three spots left to my retreat for being in the business of yourself. And this is for all of you who may be feeling a little bit of burnout, or maybe unsure of where to go, what your next move is going to be, whether it be in your job, your career, your romance, like just that unsettling of, man, I know there's something more, but I don't know what direction to go to. There's like, when you open up Pandora's box, there's 500 million directions to go. So I Yeah, of course, there could be a lot of confusion and then it gets so overwhelming that it's just easier to stay where you're at. You feel me? You know, you know, the people I'm talking to, you know, who is feeling this right now, this chaos, this disconnection, this out of alignment. Well, that's cool. I've got the cure-all, not really cure-all, but the cure for how to get into yourself, how to get into the business of yourself, how to create that confidence, that clarity, that confidence drive. Like, you know how you look at people and you see these overnight success people that look like overnight success and they're like all fit. They're part of this 5am club. You know, they're out there. They've got the career. They've got the romance. They've got the children and blah, blah, blah, blah, the car, blah, blah, blah. Something might not be right with them because they just seem like they've got it all. Well, Hashtag, what is it? Comparison is the thief of all joy. There is no such thing as perfect. And yes, there are people that look like overnight success people. And there are people who actually do have it all. But they have it all because their frequency, their energy, they resonate with with it all. And I'm here to tell you that you can too. It is an energy shift. It's a frequency upgrade. You are going to up level yourself, learning how to be in the business of yourself at this retreat. And I have so many modalities. I have so many things that are going to Get that unlocked from within you and get your clarity set. Get you from chaos to calm. Get you from disconnected to alignment. And that is what's going to show up, people. October 9th through 12th at this beautiful place, the sacred place that I've picked out at the Red River Gorge. And this is the perfect time of year too for this retreat. Let me tell you. So my birthday is October 13th. I wonder why I picked October 9th through 12th. Because it's A birthday present from me to you. It is everything I am and everything I will be giving to you. You will fill up my cup just by being there. Again, three spots left for this event. And you will wake up in this crisp air. You will wake up in the total fall of Kentucky. And if you've never seen the full fall foliage, maybe you're from Florida or you live out in California, and you've never really experienced what it's like to have a full fall. Well, let me show you. Let me show you. So we'll spare the rest of the details, but I'm looking at you. Because I know that you are feeling you need this. You need this. I know that you are feeling this is exactly what I've been asking for, what I've been searching for. And I'm just here to help be the vessel to pull it out of you, to help you gain your your next move in life that is going to provide you the upgrade you are looking for. Period. So, on with more of what I've got going on. I wanted to really just come on here this week to let you know about this amazing event. And you can also check it out at www.fitsinyoga.com and There is a fits and yoga retreat tab in there. And that's where you need to go. You need to go check it out. And I've got the link in the show notes, of course, obviously. And speaking of show notes, man, people are actually using this and I love it. And I received a text because you can text me in the show notes. And I received a text the other day from one of my last interviews with Trish Riggle. Again, y'all, if you haven't gone and done yourself the favors of checking out these interviews, please just go do it. For all things great in the world, these women have come forth with these amazing stories and It's another frequency upgrade. It is an emotional tap. It's an energy lift. And I'm telling you what, you will leave inspired from these women because they are here for that exact reason on earth to give you this inspiration that they have come into. So the text I received was, I'm going to read it here because it's so just completely amazing to read. have this. And as a matter of fact, when I first read it, I cried a bit because, you know, my first fan mail. And it says, I really enjoyed your interview with Trish. I have only FaceTimed with her once, but it was life altering for me to visit with my husband, son and other loved ones. She is truly a gift and also a good neighbor. I I have shared her info with many and would love to listen to more of your self-help interviews. Thank you for this podcast. Even when I reread that, and that hits me in such a beautiful, magical way. And if you're here listening from Kaysville, Utah... You're the one that texts me. You are absolutely, beyond a shadow of a doubt, welcome. Because hearing that this is making a difference, even with one person, has touched at least one person, then I'm doing something right. And I just want to acknowledge you and thank you for reaching out to me. So there are other reviews within my Spotify page. and my Apple app on this podcast. And I'm going to begin reading one of those a week. And that was the first one I wanted to read today of starting this new trend. And something else that I really love about this podcast is that it is such a learning journey for me. And I As you guys know, this is the Fitzon Project. It is a project that I have just stumbled into out of curiosity to see how far I can go, to see where I'm at, and just kind of like watch myself thrive in real time and in voice. And man, I really think, you know, I'm so comfortable right now talking to this mic. And I remember the first time I recorded a podcast was my very first one that I let you all hear with my cough and all. And I was with my Apple ear pods. That's what they're called, air pods. I had the air pods in my ears. That's the exact story. And I was walking around all nervous and my palms were all sweaty. And I'm just like, ooh. And then I just had to like stand there and watch myself in the mirror and breathe a little bit. And then I finally like got into my voice and carrying on. And yeah, I remember that first day, right? Right. Like we've all got our first day in our in our jobs. And this is my it is my passion project is what this is for me. So when I get these little nudges of validation, I am letting you know I'm out here celebrating myself because, again, with project management. That's what you do to keep going is you celebrate yourself throughout the project, not just at the end, right? Like I've talked to you about this with a different episode, and I'm just letting you know. When these things come in, I'm like, oh, yes, my both arms are up in the air. And I'm like, yes. So yeah, I would love for you to continue to send me the text that's in my show notes. Continue to help me out and give me the stars and write the reviews because I tell you what, the reviews and the stars, that's just going to help me bring on more amazing guests, more amazing healers, and more amazing opportunities for retreat time that I want to give back to you. You know, like what a nice exchange, right? Like an exchange of just pausing my episode, going to my show, getting in to the write the review and putting a few great words out there, putting five stars, submitting it, coming back to my episode and pressing play. And then that's going to help me get more audience. people in here that are aligned with what you want to hear. And then that's going to help me get more aligned with what you need in life with my secluded sacred offerings and my retreats. You see how this is an ebb and flow. So I'm here for you. And I really, really, really want you to understand that. And I love the conversations. And you know what, Another really cool thing is you can sign up for my email subscription. It's also in my show notes. So if you go and you check out that and you sign up for my email subscription, you get a personalized email from me each week. And I say this as a gift because I don't post that much on social media. I don't because it's just not personal. I cannot repeat myself on that. Social media is just not personal for me. I give you the highlights and that's it. And I'm really, I used to only just be on there for the grandmas, like my grandmas. And then the last one passed away a year and a half ago. And I will say, I just don't do as much on there anymore. It's just, for me to be nosy. And probably if you were honest with yourself, you were probably on there just to be nosy too. And if I'm honest with myself, I do love that marketplace, y'all. I will get on there and I will sell and buy all day long. Yes, yes, yes. Like a daggone live yard sale online. Can't beat it. So anyway. If you go in there and you subscribe to my email, you get this personalized message from me. And I will send you pictures that I don't post on social media. And a few of these past few times have sent pictures of my house or I've sent pictures of my engagement and told the story of that. And my subscribers on my email list, I absolutely adore you. And it's free for you guys free 99 right there not even 99 free 00 that's it so you can go and you subscribe and I'll send you these beautiful weekly emails and a lot of them are about the fits and project podcast but these podcasts are just a portal for me to share my heart and soul and also a portal for people that I know to come to me and share their heart and soul so it's like this sacred community right it's just like this love and this connection that I'm just so excited that I'm creating. It's the container that I teach from when I do yoga classes. And it's the same container that I lead from in my projects. So one of my emails was about my podcast that I released, Transformed by Dreams, How Trusting the Whim and Living the Shift. And if you haven't listened, I'd love for you to go back and listen to that podcast. It is about me dreaming into my reality and how all of that time of my life shifted into exactly where I'm at today. So it's really interesting. And I think it's real interesting because I don't know many people who get that specific in dreams. So I'm one of those, right? And it's, it's funny and scary and creepy. So it's I wrote the email, I got an email back because all you have to do when you subscribe and I send you that email is press reply and then boom, you're in direct conversation with me, that easy. So one of my friends who is in my subscription email, She writes me back almost every one of my emails that I send out weekly. And I absolutely love her. She is also in my yoga community here. And she's also going to my retreat. And I am so excited for Miss Jodi to be there. And on the dream one, I really just need to read this to you because I love that this was her takeaway. And this is what she wrote back in email form. She said, Interesting thoughts and shares. Definitely thought-provoking. Reflecting on my own path, I dream rarely while sleeping, and maybe that is why I have never had a dream come true. However, in my youth and young adult life, I daydreamed more than sleep dreamed. I had small dreams and big dreams, also none of which ever came true. One thing I have learned is surrender. I always fought God's will and plan for me tooth and nail. So when my ship came in, I was at the airport. I learned surrender when I believed and trusted God completely. And that was also about the time I started my yoga journey. I surrender to in yoga, a senior person and a work in progress. I admire your calm and flow and conviction for the fits and project. All the best, Jodi. And Miss Jodi, I just want to give you the warmest, biggest hug and shout out because I absolutely adore you as a person and I adore having you in my class. I adore getting the chance to know you and what an opportunity this has been in a forge of relationship has this been. This has been one of the coolest things I personally have gotten to do as an adult. So was not only just like come into yoga practice, come into your class and open up your Open up to your community there at the Wellness Center and be invited in with such warmth. And then you guys come into yourselves. Every single week, you guys come into yourselves. And it doesn't matter the age. It doesn't matter your mobility. You are just there and you show up and you trust the process. And you surrender yourself. to all that is good and all that is and all that will be. And that is why I do what I do. It's why I send the emails. It's why I teach the yoga classes. It's why I do the podcast. It's why I do all of the things, the projects, because that aligns with me. And I may look like that overnight success, but I'm letting you know that that overnight success is not real. You have to do the work. You have to be involved with yourself. And then it just looks like one day you wake up and then you got it. Because five years ago, you were wishing you were everything you are today. And that's how it is, y'all. It's that easy. It's an energy upgrade. It's a frequency shift. It's all that is within you. And we're tapping into that. Being in my group, being in my subscription, being in this podcast, just being in this community alone, you're already tapped in. So if you're interested in the retreat, if you're interested in anything that I have to offer. I do one-on-one sessions with yoga. I also do one-on-one coaching if you want an energy upgrade in that way. Yeah, just, you know, get to the show notes, send me a text, contact me, do what it is that your heart is calling. And I will see you when you want to be seen. All right, you guys take care and thank you so much. for being on this journey with me, celebrating these people with me who are being called into my life and the ones that are coming into my life because they're celebrating the ones that have been called. Does that make sense? Yes, it does. All right. Have the best rest of your week. Talk to you soon.
