Full Transcript for Intuitive Mindset Coaching and Learning to Trust Inner Guidance with Fran Gallaher

ever spent any time with a little kid, you know that all they do is ask questions. 00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:35.120 So I don't remember how that was conditioned in me to not ask questions. 00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:39.600 But I did not look for any outside assistance. 00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:41.439 So that's the bad part. 00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:46.319 But the good part is that I saw non-physical beings. 00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:52.319 And because I didn't have anyone to ask, I had no one telling me that they're not there. 00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:58.959 So for instance, I had a knight in armor who stood outside my bedroom door. 00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:02.399 And I was afraid of him. 00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:06.160 My mom taught me how to make my bed. 00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:10.160 And she kept thinking that I didn't know how to make my bed. 00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:18.800 But the problem was that I had to run past this night to get in my room and make the bed and then run back out past the night. 00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:23.839 And now I believe that night was assigned to me for protection. 00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:33.519 I think I have been a fearless person in this world, and we can also translate that to reckless and for part of my life. 00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:37.519 And I think I was usually assigned a protector. 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:53.199 So I grew up with this track of what was going on that was non-physical, and then another track that was more logical and rational. 00:07:53.439 --> 00:08:04.160 And I think my dad helped me remember these things because he used to ask me about the things I saw. 00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:07.199 And he just thought I had an active imagination. 00:08:08.079 --> 00:08:13.839 So those conversations at the dinner table with all of us, I'm one of seven. 00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:17.519 And of course, there weren't always seven because I'm a middle child. 00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:22.399 So some of them had to come along after a while. 00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:30.160 But those memories are what preserved this intuitive access for me. 00:08:30.319 --> 00:08:33.759 And I tried to deny it and ignore it. 00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:44.879 But when I got my first job at a burger place, and I had bought a book on palm reading from the Scholastic Book Club. 00:08:45.039 --> 00:08:46.320 I don't know if you remember that. 00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:46.960 Oh, yes. 00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:54.000 And it was fourth grade, and I was trying to memorize everything from the book, and I failed. 00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:58.960 So then when I was a teenager, I would drink too much. 00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:05.120 And as a party trick, as a joke, I would read people's palms and make things up, and it would be hilarious. 00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:14.240 So I came in, I opened the burger place in the morning, and my manager came in a little later and he said, What did you do last night? 00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:17.120 And I said, I drank too much and I read palms. 00:09:17.360 -->

00:09:19.039 And he said, Well, read my palms. 00:09:19.200 --> 00:09:20.639 And I said, No, you don't understand. 00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:21.200 It's a joke. 00:09:21.279 --> 00:09:22.320 I don't really read poems. 00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:24.399 He said, No, read my palms. 00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:26.879 And he stuck his hands in front of me. 00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:30.399 Well, I looked at his hands and I turned away. 00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:31.840 I said, I don't really read poems. 00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:33.679 And he said, No, you saw something. 00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:34.960 What did you see? 00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:39.279 And I said, I saw cameras on a workbench. 00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:43.279 Who would keep cameras on a workbench? 00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:48.879 And he went dead white and said, My hobby is making cameras. 00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:52.480 I have cameras all over my workbench at home. 00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:54.000 Wow. 00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:54.879 Wow. 00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:59.679 So it shocked me just as much as it shocked him. 00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:12.399 And I have spent my life coming to terms with the way this brain works, the way I work, um, still working on it. 00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:18.159 Yeah, we work on ourselves until we stop breathing. 00:10:19.919 --> 00:10:34.000 Tell me maybe if a story comes to mind about the exact kind of a person that you work with as far as some a woman who's like, wow, this is the life I designed, but not it's not working for me anymore. 00:10:34.480 --> 00:10:40.720 Do you have any like just off the off your top of your head, a couple of stories? 00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:47.120 Well, I think it almost describes everyone I work with to some extent. 00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:49.440 And sometimes it's a man. 00:10:50.080 --> 00:11:16.559 Sometimes men have had in in some cases more opportunities to build wealth, make choices based on uh, to be honest, a higher level of income, and they set up a life, maybe that with a partner, and their needs are simply not being met. 00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:31.600 And it's very hard for them to face this because everything is perfect as they had imagined it, but it isn't perfect as far as them getting their needs met. 00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:38.159 Yeah, I think we all probably have faced that. 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:44.080 Like, you know, what we want in our 20s, maybe even 20s and 30s, changes. 00:11:44.399 --> 00:11:53.279 And in fact, I had uh since COVID, since I kind of closed my office down and my acupuncture office, and what do I want to really do? 00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:56.080 And so I tried a couple different things. 00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:57.919 One was do nothing. 00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:12.000 Well, first of all, I felt at peace finally in my soul, and I thought I could just feel peace, but I knew my calling wasn't just to do nothing and just enjoy reading books and walking or whatever. 00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:13.679 Yeah, I all right. 00:12:14.080 --> 00:12:14.399 Okay. 00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:26.559 So in your bio, you said that you believe that moving towards healing and wholeness, you have to include our spirituality, and that the language of the spiritual is intuition. 00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:28.480 Can you say more about that? 00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:33.679 So when I was in fifth grade, I was with in Mrs. 00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:36.240 LaBera's class, math class. 00:12:36.559 --> 00:12:38.399 You remember the teacher's name. 00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:39.279 Yes. 00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:56.559 And we were passing cooties and we were giggling, and she realized something was going on, and she called on someone, and this was in a Catholic elementary school, and you had to stand up, you couldn't just answer from your desk. 00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:01.039 You had to stand up and stand beside the desk and say, Yes, Mrs. 00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:06.320 Libera, or yes, sister Mary Benjamin's or whatever. 00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:09.519 And that was my dad's joking name for a nun. 00:13:09.759 --> 00:13:13.919 And so someone stood up next to their desk and said, Yes, Mrs. 00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:16.159 Libera, we're passing cooties. 00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:17.039 And Mrs. 00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:21.039 Libera said, Well, bring them all up here and put them on my desk. 00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:28.720 Well, the class exploded in laughter because cooties are not a real thing. 00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:39.919 And what I have found is that spirituality is ephemeral, it is eventescent. 00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:47.679 And if you don't have your intuition open, you can't perceive it. 00:13:48.399 --> 00:14:00.159 So learning intuition is a way of using your inner senses to look at the screen of your mind. 00:14:00.799 --> 00:14:03.200 Now, some people don't have a screen of their mind. 00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:05.679 It's very rare, but it can happen. 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:10.639 Or listen for what you hear inside your own head. 00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:20.080 Or notice what you are feeling, notice what you are knowing in the moment, not necessarily thinking, it's a knowing. 00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:22.960 I have all the inner senses. 00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:29.679 So all the senses that we use to experience our external world, I have internally. 00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:40.879 And by the way, the band The Doors was named after a book by Aldus Huxley called The Doors of Perception. 00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:48.960 And what Aldus Huxley was talking about is opening these inner senses that he called the doors of perception. 00:14:49.120 --> 00:15:00.639 So those of your listeners who are into the esoteric world, you know these as clairvoyance, clairoriance, and so on, clairsentience. 00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:10.799 These are some people call them the clairs, but they are the internal senses that are clear for some of us. 00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:23.840 And one of the things I do when I teach intuition or when I work with a client in my intuitive

mindset practice, I have them notice what they are experiencing. 00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:32.559 And they may not at first realize what we're doing, but we're starting to notice what senses they have that are open. 00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:36.399 Yes, and this is really important. 00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:42.960 And of course, you know, I did take your shine a class and maybe even a couple times. 00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:49.519 And even though I've been working with my intuition for a long time, I still learned a lot. 00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:52.720 And I have that knowing. 00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:57.759 But I I've also had other senses like smelling smoke. 00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:00.159 I remember that I'm like, God, I smell smoke. 00:16:00.240 --> 00:16:04.720 And you know what smells like this bar I used to go to at the University of Wisconsin. 00:16:05.039 --> 00:16:06.399 And I'm like, what? 00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:07.840 Why am I smelling it? 00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:14.559 And I look up at the car in front of me, and they're smoking, I think they're smoking pot. 00:16:15.120 --> 00:16:18.320 And there, you can, I could just see what was going on. 00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:19.200 They were laughing. 00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:21.279 I'm like, I gotta go beyond. 00:16:21.360 --> 00:16:26.240 I changed lanes and looked at that car, and I'm like, man, you should be staying clear of that. 00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:28.080 And so I thought that was interesting. 00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:40.720 That doesn't happen often to me, but every now and then I'll actually smell something that is a maybe a warning or actually connecting to like one time. 00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:43.679 I was, I don't know why I was thinking about my aunt. 00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:46.000 One of my aunts. 00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:50.639 She used to smoke a lot, and of course, I could smell the smoke. 00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:52.720 So that that's really interesting. 00:16:52.960 --> 00:17:01.519 And you're talking about being able to smell the smoke when in the first instance you're in a closed car, in the second instance, you're nowhere near your aunt. 00:17:01.759 --> 00:17:02.159 Correct. 00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:07.680 Well, she had not and just to be clear to our audience, that's what we're talking about. 00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:14.799 We're talking about experiences that cannot be attributed to a rational source. 00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:24.400 Now, the problem with saying that it's it's not rational is that we use that word and we say someone is irrational. 00:17:24.480 --> 00:17:26.400 So it's not irrational either. 00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:41.440 I use the example of you're not going to know why you decided to walk on the other side of the street while you were walking down the street until wily coyote drops in the anvil on the spot where you just were. 00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:48.559 So we're using the term rational in that there is no preceding logical reason for what you're doing. 00:17:49.119 --> 00:17:55.599 There is no logical, rational source for your experience of smelling smoke. 00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:03.680 Okay, I've got a story, and I want you to tell a story about the lady about to go on vacation and decides to take a bath. 00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.359 Because I had me and my daughter were going to go paddleboarding. 00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:13.599 We had our swimsuits on, our cover-ups, and I said, I'm gonna go downstairs and check something on my computer. 00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:17.839 And as I'm walking down the steps, I'm going, why am I doing this? 00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:21.039 I suppose it's I don't know, right? 00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:26.720 But I keep going down the steps and I go towards my computer and my cat starts screaming. 00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:29.119 The cat is in trouble. 00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:34.799 And so, in fact, he lost the back use of his back legs and he started peeing. 00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:42.079 So this was if I hadn't been there and hadn't gone down there, this cat would have died very in a very painful way. 00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:43.119 Yeah. 00:18:43.359 --> 00:18:47.839 So we got pot cham, that was pot cham, and we picked him up and took him to. 00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:52.079 He did not live, but at least he died peacefully. 00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:52.720 Yeah. 00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:53.039 Wow. 00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:58.559 And I still remember walking down the steps going, why am I what am I checking on my computer anyway? 00:18:58.720 --> 00:18:59.839 And I just did it. 00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:00.640 Yeah. 00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:08.160 I'm going to attribute something, and you notice if this resonates, and if it doesn't, I understand. 00:19:08.640 --> 00:19:12.880 But I think that was like body level intuition. 00:19:13.039 --> 00:19:19.200 Your body started walking downstairs without the knowing going on. 00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:29.039 And I jokingly say that sometimes intuition lives in our feet and tells us to walk out of that party before everything goes to hell. 00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:31.119 That's pretty good. 00:19:31.279 --> 00:19:31.680 Yeah. 00:19:31.920 --> 00:19:32.240 Yeah. 00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:41.440 So tell what I'd love the listeners to hear the story of the couple getting ready to leave across to a different country. 00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:43.039 Not a different country. 00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:45.359 They were going to go away on vacation. 00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:50.720 They were gonna go, I don't know where how far away they were going, but I think it was significant. 00:19:51.200 --> 00:20:00.960 And they were ready to leave, and all of a sudden, my friend had to go and start running a bath. 00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:02.720 And it made no sense. 00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:10.960 And her husband was impatient, and she turns on the hot water, and the hot water heater burst. 00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:26.160 And it was so much better that they knew it then and they could get it taken care of

than if they had been gone for a significant portion of time and it had happened and flooded the house while they were gone. 00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:36.079 Yeah, that's like it was it's awesome that somebody actually followed through on something which it could feel irrational, you know. 00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:37.519 Like, why would I take a bath? 00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:39.279 We are getting ready to leave. 00:20:39.759 --> 00:20:41.039 And she did it. 00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:46.480 I must admit, I do those irrational things a great deal. 00:20:46.960 --> 00:21:07.200 And I'm lately I've been concerned about something, and I don't want to be negative, but I'm I'm concerned about some negative consequences. 00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:11.680 It's kind of like, don't forget, you might have this happen. 00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:21.119 And so yesterday I thought about going to a town that's about I think it's about an hour away. 00:21:22.799 --> 00:21:31.519 And I just had the feeling that's not for now, it's not for now, and leave that for another day. 00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:38.960 And I don't want to be negative and rain on my own parade, but I heeded that caution. 00:21:39.440 --> 00:21:57.279 So it's a little bit tricky right now, or one of the things when that if I'm in a relationship, I have to have the person understand that I may need to say or do something that is not with the program all of a sudden. 00:21:58.720 --> 00:21:59.119 Yep. 00:21:59.279 --> 00:22:01.359 And if someone We can't deal with it. 00:22:01.599 --> 00:22:04.480 Well, now you know, you know, sooner than later. 00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:08.559 I just wanted to share the story about my cats that you have found. 00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:22.160 So the first time I remember I had a broken wrist, and you came to meet me at Panera's and you looked at me and I was really like a I mean, I first of all, I was in a victimization role, right? 00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:27.359 At because I oh my poor wrist, you know, and as I never had a broken bone. 00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:28.480 That was my first time. 00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:31.920 And then I also my cat died. 00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:35.279 I'm you know, and I remember saying, Yeah, my cat died. 00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:38.559 And you go, no, I don't think so. 00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:40.880 No, I think she's lost. 00:22:41.279 --> 00:22:43.920 And I'm like, I kind of rolled my eyes. 00:22:44.000 --> 00:22:45.279 I'm like, I know my cat. 00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:46.799 My cat has never left. 00:22:46.960 --> 00:22:48.559 He's come home every day. 00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:54.960 The cat must have died because he was an outdoor cat, but he never not came home. 00:22:55.279 --> 00:22:58.079 So I thought, okay, well, I know my cat. 00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:09.920 Two days later, my kids were going to school, which was only two blocks away, and they called me and they said, Mom, the cat is underneath the car two blocks away. 00:23:10.160 --> 00:23:15.519 And I was like, and because you told me to go walk around the neighborhood, call out its name. 00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:18.319 I don't know why, but he can't find his way home. 00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:19.839 And you were so right. 00:23:20.079 --> 00:23:20.400 Okay. 00:23:21.039 --> 00:23:23.039 You know, I don't even remember that. 00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:29.119 I mean, as you tell the story, I remember it, but I didn't, I wouldn't have been able to tell the story. 00:23:29.519 --> 00:23:33.279 Yeah, that's when I was like, okay, maybe really listen to Fran. 00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:35.200 And then there were two other times. 00:23:35.279 --> 00:23:37.279 And I'll just say the very last one. 00:23:38.000 --> 00:23:40.720 I said, we can't find Alice. 00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:42.720 He hasn't been home in a few days. 00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:47.359 And he would he would sometimes not come home, but usually in the morning they're hungry. 00:23:47.599 --> 00:23:51.200 And so it's been two days, and now I'm really getting worried. 00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:57.039 And you said, Well, I I and you may be able to say this better. 00:23:57.200 --> 00:24:02.480 You said, I think it's stuck somewhere, like in a shed or somewhere where he can't get out. 00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:09.680 And I was like, Okay, so go around the neighborhood, call out its name, maybe, and so we did this time. 00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:14.640 We to me and my husband did, and then finally he made a sign. 00:24:14.880 --> 00:24:21.039 He made two big signs and he placed it near where you kind of suggested to look. 00:24:21.440 --> 00:24:27.680 Within 30 minutes, we get a phone call, and the guy says, Yes, we have your cat. 00:24:27.759 --> 00:24:29.039 He's been in our house. 00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:30.880 My daughter really loves him. 00:24:31.759 --> 00:24:35.599 Okay, well, thank you for being honest and giving us our cat back. 00:24:35.839 --> 00:24:41.599 But uh yeah, that's uh so you know, your intuition is used for a lot of different things, even finding cats. 00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:50.720 You know, I have clients who have given me permission to tell something about their situation. 00:24:51.920 --> 00:25:14.799 And one of my clients I was warning this person that something terrible might take place, and they should always have their cell phone with them, they should have a jacket, they should be prepared to be at loose ends. 00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:22.720 Well, a tragedy indeed unfolded, an absolutely horrific, unthinkable tragedy. 00:25:23.519 --> 00:25:26.000 And they survived. 00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:43.440 Several other people did not, and they attribute it to the fact that they did not have to get their cell phone, that they had their cell phone with them, and they think that I warned them enough that they were able to manage. 00:25:44.160 --> 00:26:01.519 Another story that is not a client is one of my friends called me up, and when one of the things I do when I teach intuition is to have you have

what I jokingly call your psychic friends network. 00:26:01.839 --> 00:26:11.440 So other people you can run by what you're getting to see what they're getting to get some validation or intuitive corroboration. 00:26:11.920 --> 00:26:16.240 And my friend, and my primary sense is visual. 00:26:16.319 --> 00:26:18.559 It's not my only, but it's my primary. 00:26:18.799 --> 00:26:21.920 So I often will talk about looking at something. 00:26:22.240 --> 00:26:27.039 So my friend called me up and said, I applied for this job. 00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:29.519 I really want it. 00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:32.000 What do you get when you look at it? 00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:37.440 I said, You're not gonna get the job except you're gonna get the job. 00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:41.119 And she said, That's exactly what I get. 00:26:41.519 --> 00:26:44.160 And so we waited to see what happened. 00:26:44.559 --> 00:26:48.720 Well, she interviewed, she did not get the job. 00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:52.400 They interviewed someone else who they gave the job to. 00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:57.519 Two weeks later, that person said, I'm not the person for this particular job. 00:26:57.759 --> 00:27:00.240 I think I should do this for your company. 00:27:00.400 --> 00:27:05.920 And so the next best candidate was my friend, and so she got the job. 00:27:06.799 --> 00:27:07.440 Wow. 00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:08.240 Wow. 00:27:08.559 --> 00:27:09.680 Just to hang out with that. 00:27:09.759 --> 00:27:12.319 I'm gonna get the job, but not get the job, huh? 00:27:12.559 --> 00:27:19.039 And to hang out with that is, I think, something that people need to realize. 00:27:19.200 --> 00:27:21.519 I don't know, but I get this feeling. 00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:23.359 What are your thoughts on that? 00:27:23.680 --> 00:27:24.960 Absolutely. 00:27:25.279 --> 00:27:34.559 It's like listening to music you can hardly hear, or smelling something, but you're not sure what it is, like you were talking about. 00:27:34.720 --> 00:27:38.640 It's something that's on the edge of your consciousness sometimes. 00:27:38.799 --> 00:27:41.279 Sometimes it's clearer. 00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:55.680 So I worked as a waitress back when you called it a waitress a long time ago at a restaurant that was one of the first in this country to offer wines by the glass. 00:27:55.759 --> 00:27:57.279 And we're used to that now. 00:27:57.359 --> 00:28:01.519 But at one time, wine was only sold as a bottle. 00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:07.759 And this restaurant was also forward-thinking in a lot of things. 00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:12.640 They served something called the charcuterie plate, which we're all used to now. 00:28:12.880 --> 00:28:22.079 And so we would come into work on Monday and we would have the wine of the day and the cheese of the day, or rather, the wine of the week and the cheese of the week. 00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:24.319 And this was way before the internet. 00:28:24.720 --> 00:28:29.279 So we didn't all know how to pronounce

the names of the cheeses. 00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:38.559 One of the owners may have spoken a little French, so you know, we were good on brie, but some of them we didn't know what it was. 00:28:38.640 --> 00:28:47.680 And there was one that I thought might be pronounced carefully, and I didn't know anything about it. 00:28:47.920 --> 00:28:57.200 It was just we were taught a little, you know, like what it tasted like, and whether what whether it was sheep or cow's milk, I don't remember much about it. 00:28:57.759 --> 00:29:12.000 And so one day a new client walks into, at the time I was seeing clients in my living room, and she walks into my house, sits down, and I'm flooded with the name of that cheese. 00:29:12.160 --> 00:29:15.200 And it's like, what in the world is going on? 00:29:15.440 --> 00:29:19.920 And so I say, why would I be thinking of a cheese called? 00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:24.400 I said, I don't really know how it's pronounced, but carefully. 00:29:24.480 --> 00:29:26.559 And she said, Oh, cafilly. 00:29:27.039 --> 00:29:35.279 She was from Wales, from the town where they make this cheese, and the name of the town is Cafilly, and that's how you pronounce the cheese. 00:29:36.079 --> 00:29:39.839 So there's so many associations that can happen. 00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:50.640 And what happens when someone comes in, and of course, I'm just sharing details that won't interfere with anyone's privacy, I hope. 00:29:50.960 --> 00:30:13.200 But the details that I experience when I first start working with you create a rapport that regular coaching and other forms of talk assistance, they don't create because people feel like I know them, I see them, I understand them more quickly. 00:30:13.440 --> 00:30:18.640 And indeed, I'm given information that is beyond what I can know about them. 00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:21.279 So it's a pretty magical experience. 00:30:21.440 --> 00:30:26.720 You asked at the beginning, what's it like to have an intuitive mindset coaching session? 00:30:26.960 --> 00:30:31.599 On a good day, I'm hopeful that it is amazing. 00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:34.400 That's great. 00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:47.039 Could you give our listeners, especially that kind of a woman or man who again wakes up and is gone, oh my gosh, this is the life I thought I wanted, and it's not what I want anymore. 00:30:47.279 --> 00:30:52.799 And what would be like their first small step that they could take? 00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.720 Well, I teach intuition with three props. 00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:02.240 And the first prompt is, what do I have energy for? 00:31:02.960 --> 00:31:12.960 And this is physical energy, the energy of motivation, of organic action responding to a situation. 00:31:13.119 --> 00:31:21.680 It's the same energy that an animal might use to refuse to walk forward or to refuse to stay still. 00:31:21.759 --> 00:31:23.920 It's time to go, it's time to go. 00:31:24.240 --> 00:31:35.680 It's the kind of energy that causes animals to leave an area and go to higher ground when there's going to be a flood, but nobody knows that there's going to be a flood. 00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:43.519 So I would ask, what do you have energy for that is not burn it all down? 00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:50.880 You have to be careful that you're not going to just burn it all down. 00:31:51.039 --> 00:31:54.319 I mean, sometimes that might be appropriate, not all of it. 00:31:54.559 --> 00:31:56.880 But what do I have energy for? 00:31:58.400 --> 00:32:02.880 So I use them, this is a fictitious example. 00:32:03.119 --> 00:32:06.079 But someone comes to me and says, I had a dream. 00:32:06.160 --> 00:32:08.640 I'm going to be the president of the United States. 00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:10.240 What do I do? 00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:15.519 And I might ask them, well, what have you been feeling like you needed to do? 00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:22.079 Well, I've been thinking about starting my own plumbing business, leaving my job and starting my own plumbing business. 00:32:22.319 --> 00:32:26.079 Okay, and what's the first step in starting your own plumbing business? 00:32:26.400 --> 00:32:28.720 I need to get business cards. 00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:35.119 So that's your first step toward becoming the president of the United States. 00:32:36.319 --> 00:32:47.839 And we can find those baby steps, those next steps that feel supported in our physical body, in our physical experience. 00:32:48.160 --> 00:32:54.960 So your next step for was it paddleboarding when you instead went downstairs and found Pachan? 00:32:55.599 --> 00:33:00.960 So your next step with paddleboarding was not walking out the front door. 00:33:01.279 --> 00:33:04.559 It was turning around and walking downstairs to the basement. 00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:08.079 That was your next step to that activity. 00:33:08.960 --> 00:33:21.359 So I hope that you just created a little space in your mind, and your listeners created a little space in their minds for how this can work. 00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:24.000 May I give one more example? 00:33:24.079 --> 00:33:24.559 Pardon me. 00:33:26.079 --> 00:33:32.799 I had an unhappy person come to me way before I started doing this professionally. 00:33:33.680 --> 00:33:36.160 And I had just started seeing people. 00:33:36.480 --> 00:33:43.759 And this person came to me and said that they had they worked, we're just going to say they worked in construction. 00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:47.039 They had done it for many years, they were good at it. 00:33:48.160 --> 00:33:52.480 But they were thinking about this other career. 00:33:54.160 --> 00:34:00.079 And the thing that they needed to do to start this other career was to buy a particular book. 00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:04.640 But the book cost$15. 00:34:05.759 --> 00:34:11.599 Now, this was probably before 1990. 00:34:11.840 --> 00:34:14.960 So$15 was worth more than it is now. 00:34:15.119 --> 00:34:18.880 Let's make it, I don't really know what the exchange would be, but let's make it$50. 00:34:20.159 --> 00:34:24.800 And they were very reluctant to waste$50. 00:34:25.920 --> 00:34:28.960 And I said, no, you're absolutely right. 00:34:29.119 --> 00:34:31.119 You need to buy that book. 00:34:31.519 --> 00:34:43.920 Well, they bought that book and they became the premier professional in that career in their region. 00:34:46.480 --> 00:34:54.639 And it had nothing to do or it had very little to do with the way that they were living at the time. 00:34:57.039 --> 00:35:00.480 So thank you for being on the show. 00:35:01.199 --> 00:35:03.920 You've got a a lot of things that you do. 00:35:04.559 --> 00:35:10.400 So I want to make sure that people want to get a hold of you, that it's going to be in the show notes. 00:35:11.119 --> 00:35:13.440 All the places and the things that you do. 00:35:13.599 --> 00:35:20.159 And again, that shine program and another one that I involved with on Monday and Monday evenings. 00:35:20.239 --> 00:35:25.039 And that's where people come to practice their intuition with other people. 00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:27.840 And that has been amazing. 00:35:28.159 --> 00:35:33.039 So if you want to get in touch with Fran, we have all that information in the show notes. 00:35:33.199 --> 00:35:39.280 But thank you so much for coming on and sharing your wisdom, sharing your heart. 00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:43.519 And yeah, I hope that people reach out to you. 00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:45.280 Thank you so much. 00:35:45.599 --> 00:35:46.480 You bet. 00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:57.599 So until next time, be mindful of yourself, kindful with others, and gentle with the beautifully imperfect journey of being a human. 00:35:57.840 --> 00:36:03.599 Because story by story, heart by heart, this is how the world gets a little cut.
