Time Stamped Show Notes
[01:00] – Introducing Sarah and her journey
- 02:00 – She walked away from 10 years of domestic violence 10 years ago; she needed to figure out how to survive
- 02:25 – She started working with the universe and working in the law of attraction; she now runs a 7-figure business, married her soulmate, and has two more children
- 03:30 – It all started with learning how to use her mind correctly and recognizing the mind’s potential
[04:10] – On domestic violence
- 04:35 – The statistics are alarming; meditation and presence helped her along the way
- 05:15 – That life is going to stay the same is a limiting belief and self-sabotaging; we can’t make that assumption
[05:48] – Her trauma-healing journey
- 05:50 – She reprogrammed her mind to look for positive things; connecting to a higher power helped
- 06:20 – She realized that joy, laughter, and humor is meditative; instead of blame, she focused on taking responsibility for how she feels
- 07:50 She realized that happiness was her choice; that’s why she left
[08:14] – She believes joy is the currency of consciousness
- 08:25 – The more we seek things we love to do, the more our lives have purpose; it’s important to be of service and creative
- 09:30 – We shouldn’t seek outside validation; whether it be through social media or approval from another
[09:50] – On putting out her story
- 10:05 – Vulnerability has been the key to her freedom and she learns and teaches how to operate within uncertainty
[10:55] – On how her business started

[13:38] – Sarah’s book: Dear Universe: 200 Mini-Meditations for Instant Manifestations
- 13:45 – There are 100 fear-based emotions listed and there’s a meditation to help you move through it; there are also 100 love-based emotions to move towards
- 14:30 – Her story, student examples, and case studies are weaved throughout
- 15:48 – The words “I am” program your subconscious mind; instead, give yourself a moment to not be okay without defining yourself by that state

[16:50] – Adversity as an opportunity to grow
- 17:05 – Sometimes you need to break down to breakthrough
[17:45] – Cultivating an abundant mindset
- 18:00 – If you aren’t cultivating an abundance mindset, you’re supporting a scarcity-based one; entrepreneurs need to look where limiting beliefs come from
