From Burnout to Psychic Channeler: A Midlife Awakening with Caren Carnegie
Some nudges are gentle. Others feel like a whisper you can’t ignore. For Caren Carnegie, it started with a whisper in her body - symptoms, discomfort, stuckness.
But instead of pushing it down or muscling through (like we’re taught to do), she got curious. That quiet pull led her to movement… then to healing… then to a complete soul-led transformation.
In this episode of Thrive After 45™, Caren opens up about her journey from daily drinking and disconnection to becoming a deeply intuitive momentum coach, psychic channeler, and founder of Transform Fitness Coaching. What began as a personal training journey turned into something much more sacred ... an embodied path back home to herself.
This conversation is so much more than fitness talk ... it’s about the language of the body, the power of listening before you're forced to, and how transformation doesn’t have to be fast or flashy to be real and lasting.
We talk about letting go of pressure, shifting comparison culture, tuning into the energy that’s always been guiding you, and what it really means to come alive from the inside out.
You’ll hear us unpack:
✨ How movement unlocks memory, intuition, and purpose
✨ The connection between physical symptoms and spiritual messages
✨ Why healing doesn’t have to look dramatic or sudden
✨ What it means to build momentum in a soul-aligned way
✨ The radical power of trusting your timing and honoring your own pace
If you’ve been feeling a quiet nudge ... or even a loud one ... this episode is your reminder: your body already knows. Your spirit already knows. You are not behind. You’re right on time.
Caren is one of those women whose energy just shifts the room. I’m so honored to have had this conversation and can’t wait for you to experience her magic.

00:00:00.008 --> 00:00:08.823
Hello and welcome to Thrive After 45, the podcast where we redefine what's possible in midlife.
00:00:08.842 --> 00:00:16.214
I'm Denise, drink Walter, your midlife renewal coach here to help you embrace your power, purpose, and potential.
00:00:16.225 --> 00:00:24.609
This is your space to let go of guilt, navigate transitions, rediscover joy, thrive for you by you.
00:00:24.629 --> 00:00:25.620
Because of you.
00:00:25.655 --> 00:00:33.564
It is an absolute honor and a privilege to welcome Karen Carnegie to the show today.
00:00:33.585 --> 00:00:38.115
Karen's journey into this work started through personal training.
00:00:38.134 --> 00:00:41.395
But even then, she knew there was something more.
00:00:41.408 --> 00:00:49.314
As she listened more deeply to her own healing and to the body's wisdom, she began to uncover a very powerful gift.
00:00:49.341 --> 00:00:55.341
The ability to read the body emotionally, energetically, and spiritually.
00:00:55.365 --> 00:00:56.865
Not just physically.
00:00:56.909 --> 00:01:09.876
Now, as an intuitive momentum coach, psychic channeler and founder of Transform Fitness Coaching, Karen creates a space where movement and soul meet.
00:01:09.885 --> 00:01:19.798
She helps people reconnect with themselves, move through stuck energy, and come back into alignment with who they truly are.
00:01:19.996 --> 00:01:23.206
Her impact goes beyond one-on-one clients.
00:01:23.206 --> 00:01:29.772
It reaches through her words, her presence, and the energy she shares with the world.
00:01:29.808 --> 00:01:39.424
Karen's work is sacred, embodied, and deeply transformative, and I am so grateful to have her here with us today.
00:01:39.478 --> 00:01:40.978
Karen, welcome.
00:01:41.009 --> 00:01:44.278
It is an honor and a privilege to have you on the show today.
00:01:44.278 --> 00:01:45.629
Thank you for being here.
00:01:45.789 --> 00:01:46.299
Sice.
00:01:46.299 --> 00:01:47.319
That was beautiful.
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:48.338
You made me tear up.
00:01:48.338 --> 00:01:52.599
That was, well, I wasn't meaning to do that.
00:01:56.049 --> 00:01:57.039
That's really nice.
00:01:57.039 --> 00:01:57.519
Thank you.
00:01:57.519 --> 00:01:58.989
I'm really happy to be here.
00:01:58.989 --> 00:02:01.118
I've been really looking forward to this conversation.
00:02:02.168 --> 00:02:05.739
So let's start if we can, at the beginning of your journey.
00:02:05.739 --> 00:02:16.419
So when did you first start to sense that there was something deeper waiting to be discovered beneath the surface of your personal training work?
00:02:16.419 --> 00:02:16.479
I.
00:02:17.288 --> 00:02:17.709
Hmm.
00:02:18.308 --> 00:02:31.688
So it was long after I had started and what was happening was after the birth of my second child especially, I had started really noticing that my body was crying for help.
00:02:32.169 --> 00:02:32.348
Hmm.
00:02:32.408 --> 00:02:36.878
I was having DI digestive issues, inflammation, skin flare-ups.
00:02:37.088 --> 00:02:44.498
At that point too, I was really reliant on alcohol as well, and I was really spending a lot of time and energy.
00:02:44.899 --> 00:02:51.049
Blaming other things and giving my power to other resources, trying to fix these symptoms.
00:02:51.709 --> 00:03:05.748
Until one day I was, um, I was at the chiropractor's office and I noticed a card sitting there and it had to do with, um, personal trainer or like a woman's bootcamp, but I knew that a woman's bootcamp, it just wasn't for me.
00:03:05.748 --> 00:03:11.838
I just didn't feel confident enough to step into an environment like that.
00:03:11.838 --> 00:03:13.158
It just wasn't for me.
00:03:13.758 --> 00:03:14.479
So.
00:03:14.743 --> 00:03:17.503
I started thinking to myself, well, maybe exercise.
00:03:17.503 --> 00:03:18.373
I think it's time.
00:03:18.373 --> 00:03:23.653
That wasn't even something that was on my radar at this point at all throughout my life.
00:03:24.044 --> 00:03:24.074
Okay.
00:03:24.163 --> 00:03:26.894
And I thought, well, maybe exercise.
00:03:26.894 --> 00:03:28.153
That would be a good place.
00:03:28.153 --> 00:03:34.498
So it's just this little nudge, this little something that I just, this light bulb moment that I thought, you know, this is it.
00:03:35.769 --> 00:03:47.558
And I just, and I, I went home and I talked to my husband and I said, listen, I got, I really would like to maybe start doing something with regards to fitness, but I had just injured myself not long before as a result of drinking.
00:03:48.038 --> 00:03:55.538
And I didn't know where to start and I didn't see myself and what was being portrayed when it came to the gym.
00:03:55.538 --> 00:03:55.628
Mm-hmm.
00:03:55.628 --> 00:03:58.989
And the thought of stepping into a gym just made me not wanna start.
00:03:58.989 --> 00:04:01.718
So again, it just wasn't for me.
00:04:01.718 --> 00:04:02.139
So.
00:04:02.963 --> 00:04:05.693
I decided at that point to hire a personal trainer.
00:04:06.324 --> 00:04:11.364
Now, this was about, uh, maybe a month or so before COVID started and I.
00:04:12.084 --> 00:04:15.174
We had a couple sessions and things were feeling really good.
00:04:15.174 --> 00:04:19.824
I had that little spark was growing more, I noticed, I felt better when I left.
00:04:20.334 --> 00:04:26.184
Um, and then COVID hit, the gyms were closed, and that time with my personal trainer just halted.
00:04:26.213 --> 00:04:28.283
And I said like, now what?
00:04:28.283 --> 00:04:33.353
I still don't have a lot of knowledge, but at least I have something and I wanna keep this spark going.
00:04:34.303 --> 00:04:39.973
So I, you know, whatever apps or whatever I could find on, on my phone, I went and I did them as best as I could.
00:04:39.973 --> 00:04:46.574
It wasn't perfect, but because I was by myself, it really was important that I listened to my body.
00:04:47.084 --> 00:04:47.384
Hmm.
00:04:47.783 --> 00:04:48.834
And so we did.
00:04:48.863 --> 00:04:50.454
I did that more and more.
00:04:50.454 --> 00:04:54.983
I had a couple virtual sessions with my personal trainer as well, but she wasn't there with me.
00:04:54.983 --> 00:05:04.403
So it was really important, again, that I listened to my body, really paid attention to these movements was if I was self-teaching myself when it came to physical fitness.
00:05:05.483 --> 00:05:13.163
Then a bit of time went on, maybe months where I started noticing that the thoughts that were swirling around in my head were changing.
00:05:13.613 --> 00:05:16.043
All of a sudden they had become more positive.
00:05:16.783 --> 00:05:19.903
Less limiting, less that I couldn't do this.
00:05:19.903 --> 00:05:26.444
I became more confident with my workouts, more willing to try new things or push myself a little bit more.
00:05:27.704 --> 00:05:44.774
And then I began to realize, you know what if I turned that same mindset that I have with my physical fitness and my workouts in other areas of my life where I was feeling really uncut fee social environments work as a mom, you name it.
00:05:45.488 --> 00:05:47.499
So I started looking at these things.
00:05:47.499 --> 00:05:53.798
So just like we can modify exercises, well, I can kind of modify and change my mindset when it comes to these things in my life.
00:05:54.158 --> 00:06:08.499
And maybe I'll become less anxious or maybe I'll feel better because you know, I, like a lot of people do, we overthink ourselves into this, you know, swirly, worrly, bit of chaos in our minds of these things that may or may not happen.
00:06:08.889 --> 00:06:10.718
And that's what I was doing too.
00:06:10.809 --> 00:06:11.348
But what.
00:06:11.783 --> 00:06:21.413
When I was at the gym and I was doing my workouts, I was present because I was so focused on my body that everything that was swirling around up here was gone.
00:06:21.774 --> 00:06:25.254
So I used that philosophy in other aspects of my life.
00:06:26.334 --> 00:06:33.983
And then as months went on, I would go about some walks and, um, I wasn't meditating and spirituality wasn't on my radar then.
00:06:33.983 --> 00:06:34.014
Okay.
00:06:34.074 --> 00:06:36.863
That didn't start falling until 2022.
00:06:36.863 --> 00:06:40.764
But what I did notice was these little drops of.
00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:49.928
What I thought were thoughts at the time that were really encouraging and it had to do with now looking back and I had written everything down'cause they were really good ideas.
00:06:49.928 --> 00:06:57.788
I thought, I'm gonna go home and write this down related to transform and start in that business model that I had started.
00:06:57.788 --> 00:07:00.548
So really good insights, really encouraging.
00:07:01.749 --> 00:07:04.598
Uh, positive kind of, um, um, ideas.
00:07:04.869 --> 00:07:04.959
Mm-hmm.
00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:16.238
And then in 2022, I had a, a moment where, and I was, had still been drinking daily up until even this point, and my exercise has started in 2019.
00:07:16.238 --> 00:07:22.478
So again, the changes weren't perfect and they were small, they were very incremental.
00:07:23.108 --> 00:07:23.199
Right.
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:29.048
But in 2022, I had a very clear message.
00:07:29.543 --> 00:07:30.384
From someone.
00:07:30.384 --> 00:07:38.303
Someone that I actually saw at that time that was very clear when they said, Karen, you have a job to do.
00:07:40.134 --> 00:07:41.153
This needs to stop.
00:07:41.363 --> 00:07:42.444
You need to get to work.
00:07:43.644 --> 00:07:44.033
Mm.
00:07:44.093 --> 00:07:46.704
That was, it had quit drinking.
00:07:47.303 --> 00:07:49.853
I knew that I was here for a much bigger reason.
00:07:49.884 --> 00:07:50.514
Hmm.
00:07:52.793 --> 00:07:57.324
So then this stuff started popping up into my awareness when it came to books.
00:07:58.884 --> 00:08:03.744
And listening to certain things that I would've never chosen for myself, but they were just popping up everywhere.
00:08:03.744 --> 00:08:05.514
And then I started learning more about quantum.
00:08:05.514 --> 00:08:09.024
So just like that fire inside when it came to learning about fitness.
00:08:09.564 --> 00:08:13.403
All of a sudden now I was learning about spirituality, which I was like, where did this even come from?
00:08:13.403 --> 00:08:15.684
This was not on my radar like months ago.
00:08:15.684 --> 00:08:15.744
Yeah.
00:08:15.928 --> 00:08:21.119
Now looking back, it's something that's been a part of my life for a very long time.
00:08:21.178 --> 00:08:23.639
I know that now, but it didn't.
00:08:23.639 --> 00:08:24.418
I didn't know that.
00:08:24.418 --> 00:08:29.879
Then, of course, so again, so I started getting, so really taking these insights that I was getting.
00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:31.918
I was like, no, this, this is my intuition.
00:08:31.918 --> 00:08:33.149
These are my higher guides.
00:08:33.149 --> 00:08:34.918
This is my higher self speaking.
00:08:35.219 --> 00:08:37.558
These messages are about my purpose.
00:08:37.859 --> 00:08:41.548
So really taking them seriously, writing everything down.
00:08:42.249 --> 00:08:43.568
Being present.
00:08:43.899 --> 00:09:02.288
Really, again, honing in on my, on my physical movement too, because I noticed, I really connected the dots when it came to when I moved my body and the messages that I would receive and come through at that same time and through the movement of my body, I was able to process my emotions better.
00:09:02.769 --> 00:09:10.298
That energy that's in motion that was so stuck before that was causing my body discomfort that was causing.
00:09:10.634 --> 00:09:13.004
My whole being discomfort.
00:09:13.094 --> 00:09:13.153
Yeah.
00:09:13.244 --> 00:09:14.504
So we got that moving.
00:09:15.073 --> 00:09:26.803
So I was able to get more insights and then when it came to working with clients, I came to the realization that I wasn't just tapping into my own intuition, my own higher guides, my own sources.
00:09:27.524 --> 00:09:30.283
I was able to tap into theirs as well.
00:09:30.344 --> 00:09:36.313
So I would receive messages that were meant to get to these people that through their own.
00:09:36.928 --> 00:09:40.889
Feelings of, you know, stuckness that they just weren't able to receive.
00:09:41.369 --> 00:09:45.899
So I was able to help deliver those messages so they would get off and running.
00:09:45.899 --> 00:09:49.528
So that's why I changed my title to Intuitive Momentum Coach.
00:09:49.528 --> 00:09:54.599
'cause personal trainers seemed, you know, like one avenue and then spiritual life coach was another.
00:09:55.048 --> 00:09:58.828
But Momentum is getting that energy in motion.
00:09:59.339 --> 00:10:03.538
That's what we were doing through the fusion of all of these things.
00:10:04.224 --> 00:10:07.163
And with the psychic channeling, which makes it very, very unique.
00:10:08.033 --> 00:10:09.908
So that's how it came to be.
00:10:11.259 --> 00:10:14.048
Uh, there's so many golden nuggets in there.
00:10:14.048 --> 00:10:17.708
There's a couple that I really wanna pull out and mm-hmm.
00:10:18.428 --> 00:10:21.938
Identify for our audience if they haven't heard it.
00:10:22.568 --> 00:10:25.599
One thing I heard pretty loud and clear is you shared your.
00:10:25.854 --> 00:10:27.563
Beautiful story.
00:10:28.163 --> 00:10:31.374
Um, and your journey is that it wasn't an overnight.
00:10:31.403 --> 00:10:34.913
You didn't wake up one morning and go, Bing, this is it.
00:10:34.913 --> 00:10:36.953
I'm going off and doing this now.
00:10:36.953 --> 00:10:49.073
It wasn't like an outside, it was a deep internal step by step journey that slowly you opens yourself up to experiencing.
00:10:49.344 --> 00:10:50.423
Would you s Yeah.
00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:52.389
Absolutely.
00:10:52.418 --> 00:10:53.288
Absolutely.
00:10:53.288 --> 00:10:59.859
And to, you know, it's really important to remember that, you know, it feels like we're always in this race with one another.
00:10:59.859 --> 00:11:06.729
Always comparing, you know, always, everybody has their own timing, their own layers to uncover.
00:11:06.729 --> 00:11:07.928
There's no rush.
00:11:07.989 --> 00:11:08.979
What's anyone's rush?
00:11:08.979 --> 00:11:10.239
Where do we have to be?
00:11:10.813 --> 00:11:11.833
Nowhere fast.
00:11:11.864 --> 00:11:11.923
Yeah.
00:11:11.984 --> 00:11:14.053
So really take your time.
00:11:14.234 --> 00:11:15.104
Take your time.
00:11:15.433 --> 00:11:24.283
We have so much pressure on us as it is just, you know, listen to yourself and stay on your own path because it's beautiful.
00:11:24.344 --> 00:11:25.214
It's beautiful.
00:11:25.423 --> 00:11:30.043
We could, you know, and I, and I compare it to a hiking trail and you know those little markers Oh yes.
00:11:30.553 --> 00:11:31.453
That are along the hiking trail.
00:11:31.724 --> 00:11:34.214
They don't tell you that you're there yet, but they tell you that.
00:11:34.514 --> 00:11:36.283
They're in that you're in the right direction.
00:11:36.673 --> 00:11:45.644
So you follow those little markers and along the path there's gonna be many lookouts that are absolutely beautiful to see along the way.
00:11:45.854 --> 00:11:52.693
You're gonna learn how to climb up these steep slopes and how to go down without falling.
00:11:53.563 --> 00:11:57.943
Or you could be chopper to the top and miss all of that entirely.
00:11:58.479 --> 00:11:58.769
Yeah.
00:11:59.413 --> 00:11:59.653
Yeah.
00:11:59.864 --> 00:12:03.553
You would've missed all of that along the way.
00:12:04.208 --> 00:12:06.068
So, I mean, take your time.
00:12:06.068 --> 00:12:11.349
Take the time that you need and don't worry about anybody else and what exactly what they're doing.
00:12:11.798 --> 00:12:12.788
Yeah, exactly.
00:12:12.788 --> 00:12:17.168
It's your journey and access it because it's, it's right there.
00:12:17.619 --> 00:12:27.698
And you were able to see the tiny components and listen deep enough to be able to know those nudges and what they were.
00:12:27.698 --> 00:12:31.119
You probably didn't understand them in the beginning, but as they continued and you.
00:12:31.828 --> 00:12:49.229
Made yourself open to it because, and, and correct me if I'm wrong, because they were not, um, so loud that they interfered and you got to push them away, but they were quieter, but there was something deeper inside of you knowing you had to move it.
00:12:49.649 --> 00:12:52.168
Is that Absolutely.
00:12:52.168 --> 00:12:52.229
Yeah.
00:12:52.349 --> 00:12:53.068
Absolutely.
00:12:53.308 --> 00:12:58.619
And if I were given all of this information at the beginning that, you know, Karen, this is what you're gonna be doing.
00:12:58.619 --> 00:12:58.739
Yeah.
00:12:59.408 --> 00:13:02.019
That version of Karen was very scared.
00:13:02.408 --> 00:13:02.619
Yes.
00:13:02.948 --> 00:13:04.599
Like I, I don't think I would've done it.
00:13:05.109 --> 00:13:05.499
Right.
00:13:05.528 --> 00:13:11.168
So you, given what we're need and the same with these messages that are received through psychic channeling.
00:13:11.438 --> 00:13:11.708
Yes.
00:13:11.739 --> 00:13:14.168
Whether it's for myself, for the collective or for members.
00:13:14.619 --> 00:13:17.408
We're given what we're meant to, to receive.
00:13:17.678 --> 00:13:17.948
Right.
00:13:17.948 --> 00:13:19.928
When we're meant to receive it.
00:13:19.928 --> 00:13:20.859
Exactly.
00:13:21.068 --> 00:13:22.119
Not a second sooner.
00:13:22.494 --> 00:13:23.364
Exactly.
00:13:23.484 --> 00:13:24.173
Exactly.
00:13:24.683 --> 00:13:27.563
And everything happens in the way it needs to happen.
00:13:27.563 --> 00:13:29.543
When it needs to happen, right?
00:13:29.663 --> 00:13:29.813
Yes.
00:13:29.844 --> 00:13:30.323
Yeah.
00:13:30.328 --> 00:13:30.509
Yes.
00:13:30.514 --> 00:13:30.774
Yeah.
00:13:31.433 --> 00:13:31.764
Yeah.
00:13:31.884 --> 00:13:38.693
I mean, do I wish that, you know, that my kids didn't experience me in that way when they were younger?
00:13:38.783 --> 00:13:39.744
Absolutely.
00:13:39.923 --> 00:13:44.428
But I don't spend a lot of time thinking about what was, it's an important, I don't.
00:13:44.964 --> 00:13:54.923
You'll find I don't spend a lot of time on my story because it, it's important to acknowledge and she really, that version of Karen shaped who I am now.
00:13:55.193 --> 00:13:55.313
Yeah.
00:13:55.344 --> 00:13:59.453
But I don't spend any time blaming anything or Yes.
00:13:59.484 --> 00:14:01.313
Anyone for any of that.
00:14:01.344 --> 00:14:01.703
Right.
00:14:02.903 --> 00:14:08.369
What I want to encourage, I just don't want anyone to experience their version of rock bottom.
00:14:08.739 --> 00:14:10.538
Right before something happens.
00:14:10.538 --> 00:14:12.249
So those little nudges.
00:14:12.249 --> 00:14:17.168
Yeah, we spend a lot of time making sense of things to soothe their mind.
00:14:17.889 --> 00:14:29.828
When your body's been talking to you in its own language for maybe a really long time, and your body has a way better understanding right of what's going on than anything up here ever will.
00:14:29.918 --> 00:14:34.058
So you'll never hear me use the word mindful because to me the mind is already full.
00:14:34.749 --> 00:14:35.769
Listen a little bit more to.
00:14:37.193 --> 00:14:38.274
Say that again.
00:14:38.484 --> 00:14:39.384
Say that again.
00:14:39.384 --> 00:14:40.614
That was brilliant.
00:14:40.614 --> 00:14:41.244
Thank you.
00:14:41.274 --> 00:14:41.573
Go.
00:14:42.504 --> 00:14:47.933
I feel like we're always using that word, but mindful the mind is already full.
00:14:48.083 --> 00:14:58.524
Listen to your body and the nudges that, that it often speaks in the language of symptoms, perhaps, and maybe it's been talking to you for a really long time.
00:14:58.524 --> 00:15:03.173
Listen to your body, be aware of your body, aware of your reactions, right?
00:15:04.644 --> 00:15:14.244
But yeah, it's, uh, we give this a lot of credit and a lot of power, and really it could just be delaying what's waiting for you and your body knows what that is.
00:15:14.634 --> 00:15:14.783
Yeah.
00:15:15.504 --> 00:15:17.484
This not so much right.
00:15:18.053 --> 00:15:19.224
Tuning into your body.
00:15:19.224 --> 00:15:20.634
So what does it mean?
00:15:22.043 --> 00:15:30.173
That, um, like coming home to yourself, like how does the body actually guide that process of coming home to yourself?
00:15:30.173 --> 00:15:36.234
You're talking about the body and it's very loud if you're paying attention and the power.
00:15:36.264 --> 00:15:36.354
Mm-hmm.
00:15:36.354 --> 00:15:37.193
It has.
00:15:37.193 --> 00:15:37.283
Mm-hmm.
00:15:37.289 --> 00:15:37.328
Um.
00:15:38.678 --> 00:15:42.068
What does it mean to be able to find that and come home to you?
00:15:42.999 --> 00:15:46.389
So we disconnect ourselves sometimes from our body.
00:15:46.389 --> 00:15:51.609
We think that our body has no relation to our path or purpose in this life, right?
00:15:51.609 --> 00:15:55.119
When it really, it's the vessel or vehicle that's driving you through it.
00:15:55.688 --> 00:15:57.969
So the body holds energy.
00:15:57.969 --> 00:15:59.349
It holds emotion, right?
00:15:59.379 --> 00:16:02.708
It holds a frequency and it holds memory.
00:16:02.918 --> 00:16:04.028
At transform.
00:16:04.028 --> 00:16:05.948
We're not here to always activate muscle.
00:16:05.948 --> 00:16:07.089
We're here to activate.
00:16:07.119 --> 00:16:08.619
Memory, right?
00:16:08.619 --> 00:16:17.033
So when we connect to our body, we're telling ourselves we're important, that we want to feel better.
00:16:17.798 --> 00:16:31.208
Right, and it just opens up a whole kind of, it just opens up an in, it's an invitation to, to, you know, feeling better and learning more about yourself and feeling, knowing what you're capable, what your body is capable.
00:16:31.208 --> 00:16:38.649
Because in this disconnect that we get with our body, you know, I've seen some people become scared of their body or they lose trust in it.
00:16:40.433 --> 00:16:47.033
You know, and our, or we don't like what we see, or we're hard on ourselves when we look at our reflection in the mirror.
00:16:47.333 --> 00:16:52.734
That reflection just wants you to see it the way that it sees you.
00:16:54.653 --> 00:17:00.173
So, and I, and I, uh, a good metaphor that I have is the body is like a speaker.
00:17:00.339 --> 00:17:00.428
Right.
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:03.219
You know, like a speaker that we're talking out of right now.
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:10.628
So a speaker, and then the sound that comes through the spirit is maybe your intuition, your spirit, your soul.
00:17:10.868 --> 00:17:13.028
But there's static happening, there's static.
00:17:13.058 --> 00:17:14.979
We just need help to tune it.
00:17:15.189 --> 00:17:16.358
So how do we tune it?
00:17:16.358 --> 00:17:24.308
We turn that little dial well, to me, that turning of that little dial is like movement and not everybody.
00:17:25.314 --> 00:17:28.193
Might resonate with strength training or lifting weights, right?
00:17:28.223 --> 00:17:33.203
Maybe for someone else stretching, meeting their body where it's at right now.
00:17:33.203 --> 00:17:40.253
So starting with stretching to connect with their body, yoga, martial arts, whatever it is, right?
00:17:40.463 --> 00:17:44.124
Finding that thing that sprinkles aspects of you in it.
00:17:44.273 --> 00:17:48.594
So not everybody that works with me, you know, needs to hire me as a personal trainer.
00:17:48.594 --> 00:17:50.213
I've got other options to work.
00:17:50.388 --> 00:17:51.409
Nice with people.
00:17:51.798 --> 00:17:57.618
It's just helping you to remember what is that thing that makes your body feel good?
00:17:58.009 --> 00:18:02.209
That also makes your spirit just light up, right?
00:18:02.239 --> 00:18:07.818
So it's asking the right questions and by finding out that real why.
00:18:08.544 --> 00:18:10.134
Their outcome becomes different.
00:18:10.223 --> 00:18:15.624
So there's always frequency attached to the reasons why people will do something.
00:18:16.104 --> 00:18:16.223
Okay.
00:18:16.223 --> 00:18:25.884
If they hire a personal trainer because they got a good deal, or you know it was they promised a fast result, well their outcome is probably gonna match that.
00:18:26.394 --> 00:18:26.784
Right?
00:18:26.844 --> 00:18:31.973
But if you ask more questions and you find out that somebody would like to.
00:18:32.469 --> 00:18:41.769
Hire a personal trainer or you know, move their body right in a different way that resonates with them because they wanna play with their grandchildren for as long as possible, right?
00:18:41.888 --> 00:18:44.648
They wanna get up and down on the floor, off the floor, right?
00:18:45.038 --> 00:18:49.209
They wanna hike with their husband because that is something that they just both enjoy.
00:18:49.239 --> 00:18:49.298
Yeah.
00:18:50.949 --> 00:18:53.318
That's gonna become a little bit deeper.
00:18:53.318 --> 00:18:55.088
Their why becomes deeper.
00:18:55.118 --> 00:18:58.989
Their outcome is gonna become deeper and more sustainable.
00:18:59.378 --> 00:18:59.648
Right.
00:18:59.679 --> 00:19:00.128
Okay.
00:19:00.219 --> 00:19:00.398
Yeah.
00:19:00.398 --> 00:19:00.729
Right.
00:19:00.729 --> 00:19:02.199
So it's just asking those questions.
00:19:02.199 --> 00:19:06.308
So many personal trainers will stop at the gate of the more physical, right?
00:19:06.308 --> 00:19:16.419
Whereas me, we ask, we go a little bit, oh, I, with their permission, we open up those gates, of course, and I start to ask people, you know, what makes them who they are?
00:19:16.598 --> 00:19:22.358
And oftentimes Denise, they don't have an answer because somewhere along the way, they've forgotten.
00:19:22.973 --> 00:19:27.534
Yeah, so some of my questions I asked'em about some of the stuff that they enjoyed doing when they were a child.
00:19:27.534 --> 00:19:27.923
Mm-hmm.
00:19:28.163 --> 00:19:31.074
What do you do where you lose track of time?
00:19:32.108 --> 00:19:35.378
Maybe we've forgotten'cause we haven't done those things in a while.
00:19:35.858 --> 00:19:53.318
So when I'm creating these summaries and I sit with people in my awareness, planning their workouts, or planning their, um, you know, their recommendations for outside of the gym, I make sure it's sprinkled with aspects of them that meet them where they are in a really practical and achievable way.
00:19:53.348 --> 00:19:55.989
I'm not asking anyone to go beyond themselves.
00:19:57.548 --> 00:19:59.048
All of a sudden, wow.
00:19:59.078 --> 00:20:00.909
You know, they start to feel better.
00:20:00.909 --> 00:20:11.679
They start to gain that momentum because now all of a sudden that energy that's been just sitting kind of, you know, resting in their bodies, is moving, moving, that's momentum.
00:20:12.338 --> 00:20:19.868
So, and receiving any messages from their higher guides, or, you know, sometimes a loved one that's pa you know, it, it, it changes, right?
00:20:19.898 --> 00:20:20.709
Whatever is.
00:20:21.713 --> 00:20:22.388
To reach them.
00:20:22.388 --> 00:20:22.554
Reach them.
00:20:22.644 --> 00:20:27.624
And again, I, you know, I wanna emphasize it doesn't matter who the message is coming from, it's what the message is.
00:20:28.223 --> 00:20:28.433
Right.
00:20:28.433 --> 00:20:28.463
Okay.
00:20:28.493 --> 00:20:29.183
Reaches them.
00:20:29.183 --> 00:20:33.308
And then that might help them to see past the blind spots be like, mm-hmm.
00:20:33.394 --> 00:20:39.173
Oh, it could be a phrase, a word, a memory, something that's ignited where they're like, oh.
00:20:39.953 --> 00:20:40.973
That's what it was.
00:20:40.973 --> 00:20:47.304
That was in my blind spot that was preventing me from seeing that beautiful lookout that was right there.
00:20:47.304 --> 00:20:47.364
Yeah.
00:20:47.364 --> 00:20:48.503
I just couldn't see it.
00:20:48.503 --> 00:20:51.564
'cause maybe this thing was right in my way.
00:20:51.713 --> 00:20:53.183
Right, right, right.
00:20:54.114 --> 00:20:58.558
So when you work with your clients mm-hmm.
00:20:59.058 --> 00:21:02.124
Um, I can only imagine, imagine.
00:21:02.903 --> 00:21:13.044
That the variety of messages that come through are dependent upon their energy, your energy, the combination thereof.
00:21:13.044 --> 00:21:27.804
And it's, and it's, it's any, any of those three elements that combine itself to create that response where you get messages or are you finding that.
00:21:28.403 --> 00:21:31.884
Um, you don't have to spend a lot of time like, how does that even work?
00:21:31.943 --> 00:21:33.834
Because I'm so intrigued by this.
00:21:33.864 --> 00:21:34.703
It's so incredible.
00:21:34.703 --> 00:21:46.463
So, so far, so there is a bit when kind of attached to their energy and when we speak at our initial conversation, we'll speak so I can, so we can see each other, because I find that that's really important.
00:21:46.933 --> 00:21:51.644
Because I can see how they use their body just in like, in conversation.
00:21:51.854 --> 00:21:51.943
Right.
00:21:51.943 --> 00:22:00.013
And I can feel their energy and I, I can feel their energy through a text, an email, through a conversation, just with having them in my awareness.
00:22:00.013 --> 00:22:00.523
Sure.
00:22:00.554 --> 00:22:11.233
Consciousness is very vast and when, you know, when we agree to work with one another, we're agreeing to be in each other's energy field.
00:22:11.239 --> 00:22:11.348
Right?
00:22:11.384 --> 00:22:11.773
Right.
00:22:11.773 --> 00:22:14.054
So through their energy.
00:22:14.739 --> 00:22:23.048
But there has been a really big variety and yeah, sometimes what might be blocking someone or someone, you know mm-hmm.
00:22:23.318 --> 00:22:26.409
Something in their blind spot is grief, for example.
00:22:26.503 --> 00:22:26.794
Sure.
00:22:27.013 --> 00:22:29.673
Um, so maybe a message from.
00:22:30.713 --> 00:22:36.773
You know, if, if there was a loss for them, that was close to them, a message from that individual is what we've experienced.
00:22:36.773 --> 00:22:45.384
So it's all very specific to the individual or something related to the weight of the world that's connected to their physical symptoms.
00:22:45.384 --> 00:22:49.433
Just the weight of, of not just one person, but just, you know.
00:22:49.778 --> 00:22:55.538
People's opinions or people's expectations are just weighing their body down.
00:22:55.989 --> 00:23:02.318
So really just connecting those dots for them, and that'll be from their higher self or their team of higher guides.
00:23:02.888 --> 00:23:09.909
But it's been a variety, you know, and some of it has really caught me up, but just I think that my direction is going one way, right?
00:23:09.973 --> 00:23:11.378
It just keeps me on my toes.
00:23:11.378 --> 00:23:11.709
I was like, what?
00:23:11.868 --> 00:23:13.459
Wasn't expecting that one.
00:23:13.729 --> 00:23:15.378
And it's evolving every day.
00:23:15.499 --> 00:23:24.439
And it is, and I, my gifts are evolving too, in that these, um, I would normally have to really kind of sit in solitude to receive these message.
00:23:24.588 --> 00:23:30.199
They're coming on more now in real time as well through conversation, which is really special.
00:23:30.739 --> 00:23:38.088
Um, so we're always in communication with each other through, through text, with the transform app or through, you know, regular conversations like this.
00:23:38.088 --> 00:23:39.169
And in person too.
00:23:39.223 --> 00:23:40.213
You know, maybe at the gym.
00:23:40.243 --> 00:23:48.673
So it's, um, yeah, it's been quite a variety and a variety too, on the people that reach out to me.
00:23:48.733 --> 00:23:48.854
Yeah.
00:23:48.854 --> 00:23:53.743
Men, women, you know, this work is for, for humans, it's for everyone.
00:23:53.923 --> 00:23:55.064
It's for everyone, right.
00:23:55.574 --> 00:23:55.663
Yeah.
00:23:55.814 --> 00:24:00.284
So, yeah, it's, uh, it's been, it's been quite a variety and has kept me on my toast.
00:24:01.243 --> 00:24:03.284
Well, I have to say.
00:24:03.653 --> 00:24:09.953
I am so thrilled that you have listened to your guides.
00:24:10.314 --> 00:24:14.903
You have taken time and space to understand.
00:24:14.903 --> 00:24:22.044
I know at the beginning you shared, um, that, that you, when you look at your past, this has always been.
00:24:22.723 --> 00:24:33.824
Part of who you are, but it's just come to light through your most recent, you know, in the 20 nineteens and beyond, things unfolding in the way that they needed to.
00:24:34.064 --> 00:24:41.713
I always believe that our journey is happening the way it has always meant to happen, even though we can't.
00:24:42.473 --> 00:24:44.784
Comprehend what's going on.
00:24:44.784 --> 00:25:03.743
It's much deeper than that, and I really, really love Karen, that your message is very clear, which is exactly why we do this show that this is for the importance of, um, women in particular, because that's our primary audience, but people in general we're going to say.
00:25:04.493 --> 00:25:12.713
Making sure you do for you by you because of you, because nobody else can take the journey for you.
00:25:13.074 --> 00:25:15.294
It is yours, right?
00:25:15.473 --> 00:25:30.983
And the way that you have incorporated all of your gifts and talents through the challenging journey that you have experienced, and not only come out the other side, but have.
00:25:31.763 --> 00:25:40.884
I'm gonna say grown wings as an angel path for so many who have the fortune to meet you.
00:25:41.528 --> 00:25:45.429
Connect with you in whatever form fashion that takes.
00:25:45.909 --> 00:25:51.038
And it really is an honor to share this time and space with you today.
00:25:51.489 --> 00:25:52.509
I'm so grateful.
00:25:52.868 --> 00:25:54.068
Well, thank you.
00:25:54.338 --> 00:25:55.358
I am the grateful one.
00:25:55.358 --> 00:25:55.838
Thank you.
00:25:56.108 --> 00:25:59.439
I'm glad that we, you know, found this connection.
00:25:59.439 --> 00:26:00.098
For sure.
00:26:00.669 --> 00:26:07.689
It's, you know, and you know, an important message for people too is just not to wait for your conditions to change.
00:26:07.929 --> 00:26:08.108
Yes.
00:26:08.709 --> 00:26:09.398
Um.
00:26:10.013 --> 00:26:19.013
We, you know, we, we delay things to just try to make sense of it, but it, there's nothing more freeing than just trusting what is.
00:26:19.013 --> 00:26:30.503
We don't need to necessarily know how the body is connected to everything, but just know that it is, trust that it is, you'll find out why once you go along.
00:26:30.503 --> 00:26:35.753
So just trust that it is, and just free yourself from those things that might be.
00:26:36.878 --> 00:26:38.318
Keeping you where you are, right?
00:26:38.439 --> 00:26:38.499
Yeah.
00:26:38.528 --> 00:26:41.618
From the life that you're meant to live, that you're ready to live.
00:26:41.618 --> 00:26:42.519
So Right.
00:26:42.999 --> 00:26:46.929
Taking these first, following those little nudges is really, it's really important.
00:26:47.409 --> 00:26:48.848
It's really key, isn't it?
00:26:48.969 --> 00:26:49.778
It really is.
00:26:49.808 --> 00:26:49.868
Yeah.
00:26:49.929 --> 00:26:57.278
And, and it's very quick how our mind enters in and becomes the, you know, the little on the shoulder note.
00:26:57.278 --> 00:26:57.999
What do you think of.
00:26:58.088 --> 00:26:59.679
What are you thinking about that?
00:26:59.679 --> 00:27:01.269
Why do you think you could ever do that?
00:27:01.298 --> 00:27:05.709
All this stuff, and that does have a way of quieting down over time.
00:27:05.979 --> 00:27:06.128
Hmm.
00:27:07.028 --> 00:27:07.538
Right?
00:27:07.538 --> 00:27:07.598
Yeah.
00:27:07.598 --> 00:27:21.338
It really truly can, you know, if you just really remember why you're doing this in the first place and give yourself love and compassion, some of those voices that are up here, they'll start, they'll start to quiet down.
00:27:21.398 --> 00:27:22.479
So just really, yeah.
00:27:22.479 --> 00:27:27.249
And when we, and I feel this is my hope for the future is through every.
00:27:27.294 --> 00:27:36.023
Person who I connect with or who I reach, or you know you with your clients and the people that you reach through your podcast.
00:27:36.503 --> 00:27:43.463
If we can help encourage people to love and accept themselves, it all starts here.
00:27:44.064 --> 00:27:45.503
Then and only then.
00:27:45.973 --> 00:27:50.564
Can we truly actually accept other people and appreciate other people?
00:27:51.163 --> 00:27:53.594
Because otherwise we're just pretending.
00:27:53.624 --> 00:27:57.673
We're performing and pretending in this life, which maybe we've been doing for a while.
00:27:58.273 --> 00:28:08.294
But when you learn and really appreciate and accept yourself, you'll appreciate other people and see that we're all living and experiencing through our own lens.
00:28:09.449 --> 00:28:11.068
That's my hope for the future.
00:28:11.128 --> 00:28:20.909
That's how I feel like the world is then gonna become a better place when we learn to actually value and appreciate each other, because we've accepted ourselves.
00:28:20.939 --> 00:28:22.439
So it all starts here.
00:28:22.858 --> 00:28:23.308
Right?
00:28:23.398 --> 00:28:23.848
Right.
00:28:24.179 --> 00:28:32.578
And when we start there and when we understand the importance of yourself.
00:28:33.473 --> 00:28:38.394
And, and this is the thing that I find that the women that I work with really struggle with.
00:28:38.394 --> 00:28:46.824
That they feel that, feel that that is egocentric where you start to think about your as important as everybody else.
00:28:46.824 --> 00:28:50.064
And that is falsehood 1 0 1.
00:28:50.124 --> 00:28:51.503
Like who?
00:28:51.503 --> 00:28:52.403
Whoever.
00:28:52.824 --> 00:29:00.624
Gave that lip service, I mean, it's in the sphere for sure, but we need to remove it.
00:29:00.653 --> 00:29:01.943
We need to change it.
00:29:01.973 --> 00:29:12.773
And the only way we can do that is through our types of conversations and giving people the, not only the concept, but the.
00:29:13.388 --> 00:29:18.608
Propensity and power to go ahead and move forward for themselves.
00:29:18.608 --> 00:29:18.669
Yeah.
00:29:19.179 --> 00:29:20.378
And what, yeah.
00:29:20.378 --> 00:29:20.739
Right.
00:29:20.739 --> 00:29:24.878
When we do that, everything changes in so many ways.
00:29:25.449 --> 00:29:33.489
Women, I mean, we, we are just, it's in our blood to nurture and care for others, and that's a really, it's a barrier.
00:29:33.489 --> 00:29:42.009
It was a barrier for myself for a long time, and even in the beginning when I chose and hired a personal trainer, I, I had young children at home.
00:29:42.128 --> 00:29:42.489
I.
00:29:42.864 --> 00:29:46.403
You know, shouldn't have used that time for myself.
00:29:46.403 --> 00:29:59.874
I shouldn't have spent that money, but oh my gosh, I'm so glad I did because now because I show up for myself, I show up for my kids and I'll show up better in the world.
00:29:59.903 --> 00:30:04.463
My definition of definition of fitness, I changed it because I.
00:30:05.213 --> 00:30:08.663
Want it to be more encompassing, more holistic.
00:30:09.084 --> 00:30:16.584
It is about being sound in your environment inside, so we can be more sound in our environment around us.
00:30:16.584 --> 00:30:20.993
It has nothing to do with reps or weight or macros or equipment.
00:30:21.084 --> 00:30:22.673
It has nothing to do with that.
00:30:23.124 --> 00:30:24.233
It's in here.
00:30:24.713 --> 00:30:32.213
So when people think that you know that it's selfish or you know that they shouldn't be taking that time for themselves.
00:30:33.864 --> 00:30:37.943
That is a big reason why you, why it's a good idea.
00:30:37.973 --> 00:30:40.253
'cause you'll show up and you'll care for others.
00:30:40.253 --> 00:30:45.594
But really we need to focus on ourselves and it's just shifting that paradigm now.
00:30:45.624 --> 00:30:45.713
Mm-hmm.
00:30:45.953 --> 00:30:48.834
That's just been ingrained in us for so long.
00:30:48.834 --> 00:30:51.263
Let's shift that paradigm a little bit.
00:30:51.324 --> 00:30:51.473
Yeah.
00:30:51.503 --> 00:30:56.903
So it's become more freeing for women, especially to just take those steps.
00:30:57.564 --> 00:31:09.443
And the thing that I'd, I'd love to add to that is you are also modeling for your children so that they can see the importance of making sure you look after yourself.
00:31:10.223 --> 00:31:13.374
And when you give them that underpinning.
00:31:14.124 --> 00:31:40.013
They're going to, they're not gonna battle as much or as harder or as long for giving back to themselves, which I love, which is, I think you know why we need to do this work and why we need to have these conversations and why we need to have people like you in this beautiful world to be able to show us what can happen when we do change ourselves from the inside out.
00:31:40.733 --> 00:31:46.584
It doesn't just stop at us by focusing on ourselves, and I'll use my own family as an example.
00:31:46.733 --> 00:31:47.334
You're right.
00:31:47.334 --> 00:31:48.683
You know, thank you for bringing that up.
00:31:48.683 --> 00:31:51.023
My children see something different.
00:31:51.023 --> 00:31:53.003
My husband's taking care of myself.
00:31:53.513 --> 00:31:53.574
Yeah.
00:31:53.604 --> 00:32:05.243
It has healed something in my own mom, you know, because she sees us taking care of her, you know, as, so maybe if there's something inside of her, a layer that you know that is.
00:32:06.729 --> 00:32:10.808
A little bit of attention that that just helps her so it doesn't just stop.
00:32:11.078 --> 00:32:14.558
It's so, so important because you did one thing.
00:32:15.249 --> 00:32:15.429
Yeah.
00:32:16.223 --> 00:32:17.513
Seems pretty worth it to me.
00:32:17.844 --> 00:32:19.493
Yeah, it's a win.
00:32:19.493 --> 00:32:23.153
It's the Stephen Covey win, win, win all the way around.
00:32:23.153 --> 00:32:23.213
Yeah.
00:32:23.423 --> 00:32:23.723
Right.
00:32:23.723 --> 00:32:28.913
Without, yeah, with, and the part I love is that it's without having to make it happen outside of you.
00:32:29.513 --> 00:32:29.574
Yeah.
00:32:29.574 --> 00:32:37.943
You just start doing that for you and your sphere of influence starts changing without you having to create the atmosphere for such.
00:32:37.943 --> 00:32:43.673
'cause you're already creating it through the energy you're putting out because you're happier with who you are.
00:32:43.943 --> 00:32:44.483
Exactly.
00:32:44.814 --> 00:32:47.064
You know, I would love to change.
00:32:47.394 --> 00:32:51.624
Uh, you know, and I don't agree that fitness is an industry, and we see it in spirituality too.
00:32:51.624 --> 00:32:52.763
It's become an industry.
00:32:52.763 --> 00:32:53.933
When does that even happen?
00:32:53.933 --> 00:32:54.503
I don't know.
00:32:54.703 --> 00:33:06.743
But, you know, but I'm one person, so I, maybe I can't, I can't really, I'd love to influence a new idea when it comes to fitness, but I can hold space for all of those people who don't know.
00:33:06.743 --> 00:33:09.953
And don't get me wrong, there's many people who resonate with health and that's.
00:33:09.953 --> 00:33:10.453
Fine.
00:33:10.453 --> 00:33:12.733
You know, and that's great and I'm happy for them.
00:33:13.003 --> 00:33:13.124
Yeah.
00:33:13.153 --> 00:33:17.773
But there are people out there who just don't see themselves with what's being portrayed.
00:33:17.773 --> 00:33:19.124
So I will hold space.
00:33:19.304 --> 00:33:20.564
I will never stop.
00:33:20.953 --> 00:33:26.173
I will hold space and uh, for those people so they know that fitness is in here.
00:33:26.233 --> 00:33:28.784
Everybody, you know, it isn't a luxury.
00:33:28.784 --> 00:33:29.413
It's a right.
00:33:29.413 --> 00:33:31.784
We all have you belong here.
00:33:31.844 --> 00:33:36.463
I want people to feel welcome just as I would welcome them in my own home.
00:33:36.614 --> 00:33:36.794
Yeah.
00:33:37.094 --> 00:33:40.423
You're not subscribing to an idea or a template, right?
00:33:40.423 --> 00:33:41.443
It's a relationship.
00:33:41.443 --> 00:33:45.193
It's a sacred relationship, you know, of somebody that knows.
00:33:45.773 --> 00:33:48.203
All the dimensions perfect.
00:33:48.203 --> 00:33:50.003
Because we're multidimensional beings.
00:33:50.304 --> 00:33:54.503
You know, just like I don't say mindful, I rarely say the word program either.
00:33:54.503 --> 00:33:54.564
Yeah.
00:33:54.564 --> 00:33:56.784
Because we cannot be programmed, right.
00:33:56.784 --> 00:33:57.324
We're human.
00:33:57.324 --> 00:34:01.763
We have all these different layers, so go easy on yourself.
00:34:01.763 --> 00:34:05.574
And again, the changes, they don't have to perfect or incremental.
00:34:05.574 --> 00:34:07.554
When things happen, life happens.
00:34:08.213 --> 00:34:10.074
Give yourself grace and compassion.
00:34:10.074 --> 00:34:11.784
And tomorrow is a new day.
00:34:12.114 --> 00:34:12.293
Yeah.
00:34:12.923 --> 00:34:13.614
Perfect.
00:34:14.454 --> 00:34:31.824
Karen, thank you so, so much for your time, your energy, your positivity, your experience that you've shared, which I know, I'm sure there are nights you probably in days you probably think, whoa.
00:34:32.094 --> 00:34:33.414
What has happened.
00:34:33.414 --> 00:34:38.603
I'm so grateful that you've been here to share this time with us.
00:34:38.693 --> 00:34:51.474
We will have all the information in the show notes so people can reach out, find you, connect with you, watch you experience the energy that you are so graciously giving on a daily basis.
00:34:51.474 --> 00:34:58.494
Do you have any words that you wanna share with the audience before we close off this great conversation?
00:34:59.588 --> 00:35:05.469
Well just to, we're always seeking something, you know, waiting for that thing.
00:35:05.469 --> 00:35:08.829
You are the thing that you've been waiting for.
00:35:10.088 --> 00:35:10.929
You are it.
00:35:11.829 --> 00:35:12.608
You are it.
00:35:12.608 --> 00:35:17.349
So just free yourself from just trying to.
00:35:18.608 --> 00:35:22.599
You know, compete in this race that just seems to be happening around us.
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:24.309
Pause, be present.
00:35:25.028 --> 00:35:27.248
You are what you've been waiting for.
00:35:27.518 --> 00:35:28.688
So that would be my.
00:35:29.844 --> 00:35:30.923
That would be my advice.
00:35:30.923 --> 00:35:31.974
That's what I'm hearing a lot.
00:35:32.903 --> 00:35:33.353
Perfect.
00:35:33.353 --> 00:35:39.534
And you're gonna do this for you by you because of you, because you are going to thrive after 45.
00:35:39.534 --> 00:35:41.693
Thank you all for listening.
00:35:42.143 --> 00:35:44.693
Please, please, please give a review.
00:35:44.693 --> 00:35:55.824

00:00:00.008 --> 00:00:08.823
Hello and welcome to Thrive After 45, the podcast where we redefine what's possible in midlife.

00:00:24.629 --> 00:00:25.620

00:00:25.655 --> 00:00:33.564
It is an absolute honor and a privilege to welcome Karen Carnegie to the show today.
00:00:33.585 --> 00:00:38.115
Karen's journey into this work started through personal training.
00:00:38.134 --> 00:00:41.395
But even then, she knew there was something more.
00:00:41.408 --> 00:00:49.314
As she listened more deeply to her own healing and to the body's wisdom, she began to uncover a very powerful gift.
00:00:49.341 --> 00:00:55.341
The ability to read the body emotionally, energetically, and spiritually.
00:00:55.365 --> 00:00:56.865
Not just physically.
00:00:56.909 --> 00:01:09.876
Now, as an intuitive momentum coach, psychic channeler and founder of Transform Fitness Coaching, Karen creates a space where movement and soul meet.
00:01:09.885 --> 00:01:19.798
She helps people reconnect with themselves, move through stuck energy, and come back into alignment with who they truly are.
00:01:19.996 --> 00:01:23.206
Her impact goes beyond one-on-one clients.
00:01:23.206 --> 00:01:29.772
It reaches through her words, her presence, and the energy she shares with the world.
00:01:29.808 --> 00:01:39.424
Karen's work is sacred, embodied, and deeply transformative, and I am so grateful to have her here with us today.
00:01:39.478 --> 00:01:40.978
Karen, welcome.
00:01:41.009 --> 00:01:44.278
It is an honor and a privilege to have you on the show today.
00:01:44.278 --> 00:01:45.629
Thank you for being here.
00:01:45.789 --> 00:01:46.299
Sice.
00:01:46.299 --> 00:01:47.319
That was beautiful.
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:48.338
You made me tear up.
00:01:48.338 --> 00:01:52.599
That was, well, I wasn't meaning to do that.
00:01:56.049 --> 00:01:57.039
That's really nice.
00:01:57.039 --> 00:01:57.519
Thank you.
00:01:57.519 --> 00:01:58.989
I'm really happy to be here.
00:01:58.989 --> 00:02:01.118
I've been really looking forward to this conversation.
00:02:02.168 --> 00:02:05.739
So let's start if we can, at the beginning of your journey.
00:02:05.739 --> 00:02:16.419
So when did you first start to sense that there was something deeper waiting to be discovered beneath the surface of your personal training work?
00:02:16.419 --> 00:02:16.479
I.
00:02:17.288 --> 00:02:17.709
Hmm.
00:02:18.308 --> 00:02:31.688
So it was long after I had started and what was happening was after the birth of my second child especially, I had started really noticing that my body was crying for help.
00:02:32.169 --> 00:02:32.348
Hmm.
00:02:32.408 --> 00:02:36.878
I was having DI digestive issues, inflammation, skin flare-ups.
00:02:37.088 --> 00:02:44.498
At that point too, I was really reliant on alcohol as well, and I was really spending a lot of time and energy.
00:02:44.899 --> 00:02:51.049
Blaming other things and giving my power to other resources, trying to fix these symptoms.
00:02:51.709 --> 00:03:05.748
Until one day I was, um, I was at the chiropractor's office and I noticed a card sitting there and it had to do with, um, personal trainer or like a woman's bootcamp, but I knew that a woman's bootcamp, it just wasn't for me.
00:03:05.748 --> 00:03:11.838
I just didn't feel confident enough to step into an environment like that.
00:03:11.838 --> 00:03:13.158
It just wasn't for me.
00:03:13.758 --> 00:03:14.479
So.
00:03:14.743 --> 00:03:17.503
I started thinking to myself, well, maybe exercise.
00:03:17.503 --> 00:03:18.373
I think it's time.
00:03:18.373 --> 00:03:23.653
That wasn't even something that was on my radar at this point at all throughout my life.
00:03:24.044 --> 00:03:24.074
Okay.
00:03:24.163 --> 00:03:26.894
And I thought, well, maybe exercise.
00:03:26.894 --> 00:03:28.153
That would be a good place.
00:03:28.153 --> 00:03:34.498
So it's just this little nudge, this little something that I just, this light bulb moment that I thought, you know, this is it.
00:03:35.769 --> 00:03:47.558
And I just, and I, I went home and I talked to my husband and I said, listen, I got, I really would like to maybe start doing something with regards to fitness, but I had just injured myself not long before as a result of drinking.
00:03:48.038 --> 00:03:55.538
And I didn't know where to start and I didn't see myself and what was being portrayed when it came to the gym.
00:03:55.538 --> 00:03:55.628
Mm-hmm.
00:03:55.628 --> 00:03:58.989
And the thought of stepping into a gym just made me not wanna start.
00:03:58.989 --> 00:04:01.718
So again, it just wasn't for me.
00:04:01.718 --> 00:04:02.139
So.
00:04:02.963 --> 00:04:05.693
I decided at that point to hire a personal trainer.
00:04:06.324 --> 00:04:11.364
Now, this was about, uh, maybe a month or so before COVID started and I.
00:04:12.084 --> 00:04:15.174
We had a couple sessions and things were feeling really good.
00:04:15.174 --> 00:04:19.824
I had that little spark was growing more, I noticed, I felt better when I left.
00:04:20.334 --> 00:04:26.184
Um, and then COVID hit, the gyms were closed, and that time with my personal trainer just halted.
00:04:26.213 --> 00:04:28.283
And I said like, now what?
00:04:28.283 --> 00:04:33.353
I still don't have a lot of knowledge, but at least I have something and I wanna keep this spark going.
00:04:34.303 --> 00:04:39.973
So I, you know, whatever apps or whatever I could find on, on my phone, I went and I did them as best as I could.
00:04:39.973 --> 00:04:46.574
It wasn't perfect, but because I was by myself, it really was important that I listened to my body.
00:04:47.084 --> 00:04:47.384
Hmm.
00:04:47.783 --> 00:04:48.834
And so we did.
00:04:48.863 --> 00:04:50.454
I did that more and more.
00:04:50.454 --> 00:04:54.983
I had a couple virtual sessions with my personal trainer as well, but she wasn't there with me.
00:04:54.983 --> 00:05:04.403
So it was really important, again, that I listened to my body, really paid attention to these movements was if I was self-teaching myself when it came to physical fitness.
00:05:05.483 --> 00:05:13.163
Then a bit of time went on, maybe months where I started noticing that the thoughts that were swirling around in my head were changing.
00:05:13.613 --> 00:05:16.043
All of a sudden they had become more positive.
00:05:16.783 --> 00:05:19.903
Less limiting, less that I couldn't do this.
00:05:19.903 --> 00:05:26.444
I became more confident with my workouts, more willing to try new things or push myself a little bit more.
00:05:27.704 --> 00:05:44.774
And then I began to realize, you know what if I turned that same mindset that I have with my physical fitness and my workouts in other areas of my life where I was feeling really uncut fee social environments work as a mom, you name it.
00:05:45.488 --> 00:05:47.499
So I started looking at these things.
00:05:47.499 --> 00:05:53.798
So just like we can modify exercises, well, I can kind of modify and change my mindset when it comes to these things in my life.
00:05:54.158 --> 00:06:08.499
And maybe I'll become less anxious or maybe I'll feel better because you know, I, like a lot of people do, we overthink ourselves into this, you know, swirly, worrly, bit of chaos in our minds of these things that may or may not happen.
00:06:08.889 --> 00:06:10.718
And that's what I was doing too.
00:06:10.809 --> 00:06:11.348
But what.
00:06:11.783 --> 00:06:21.413
When I was at the gym and I was doing my workouts, I was present because I was so focused on my body that everything that was swirling around up here was gone.
00:06:21.774 --> 00:06:25.254
So I used that philosophy in other aspects of my life.
00:06:26.334 --> 00:06:33.983
And then as months went on, I would go about some walks and, um, I wasn't meditating and spirituality wasn't on my radar then.
00:06:33.983 --> 00:06:34.014
Okay.
00:06:34.074 --> 00:06:36.863
That didn't start falling until 2022.
00:06:36.863 --> 00:06:40.764
But what I did notice was these little drops of.
00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:49.928
What I thought were thoughts at the time that were really encouraging and it had to do with now looking back and I had written everything down'cause they were really good ideas.
00:06:49.928 --> 00:06:57.788
I thought, I'm gonna go home and write this down related to transform and start in that business model that I had started.
00:06:57.788 --> 00:07:00.548
So really good insights, really encouraging.
00:07:01.749 --> 00:07:04.598
Uh, positive kind of, um, um, ideas.
00:07:04.869 --> 00:07:04.959
Mm-hmm.
00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:16.238
And then in 2022, I had a, a moment where, and I was, had still been drinking daily up until even this point, and my exercise has started in 2019.
00:07:16.238 --> 00:07:22.478
So again, the changes weren't perfect and they were small, they were very incremental.
00:07:23.108 --> 00:07:23.199
Right.
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:29.048
But in 2022, I had a very clear message.
00:07:29.543 --> 00:07:30.384
From someone.
00:07:30.384 --> 00:07:38.303
Someone that I actually saw at that time that was very clear when they said, Karen, you have a job to do.
00:07:40.134 --> 00:07:41.153
This needs to stop.
00:07:41.363 --> 00:07:42.444
You need to get to work.
00:07:43.644 --> 00:07:44.033
Mm.
00:07:44.093 --> 00:07:46.704
That was, it had quit drinking.
00:07:47.303 --> 00:07:49.853
I knew that I was here for a much bigger reason.
00:07:49.884 --> 00:07:50.514
Hmm.
00:07:52.793 --> 00:07:57.324
So then this stuff started popping up into my awareness when it came to books.
00:07:58.884 --> 00:08:03.744
And listening to certain things that I would've never chosen for myself, but they were just popping up everywhere.
00:08:03.744 --> 00:08:05.514
And then I started learning more about quantum.
00:08:05.514 --> 00:08:09.024
So just like that fire inside when it came to learning about fitness.
00:08:09.564 --> 00:08:13.403
All of a sudden now I was learning about spirituality, which I was like, where did this even come from?
00:08:13.403 --> 00:08:15.684
This was not on my radar like months ago.
00:08:15.684 --> 00:08:15.744
Yeah.
00:08:15.928 --> 00:08:21.119
Now looking back, it's something that's been a part of my life for a very long time.
00:08:21.178 --> 00:08:23.639
I know that now, but it didn't.
00:08:23.639 --> 00:08:24.418
I didn't know that.
00:08:24.418 --> 00:08:29.879
Then, of course, so again, so I started getting, so really taking these insights that I was getting.
00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:31.918
I was like, no, this, this is my intuition.
00:08:31.918 --> 00:08:33.149
These are my higher guides.
00:08:33.149 --> 00:08:34.918
This is my higher self speaking.
00:08:35.219 --> 00:08:37.558
These messages are about my purpose.
00:08:37.859 --> 00:08:41.548
So really taking them seriously, writing everything down.
00:08:42.249 --> 00:08:43.568
Being present.
00:08:43.899 --> 00:09:02.288
Really, again, honing in on my, on my physical movement too, because I noticed, I really connected the dots when it came to when I moved my body and the messages that I would receive and come through at that same time and through the movement of my body, I was able to process my emotions better.
00:09:02.769 --> 00:09:10.298
That energy that's in motion that was so stuck before that was causing my body discomfort that was causing.
00:09:10.634 --> 00:09:13.004
My whole being discomfort.
00:09:13.094 --> 00:09:13.153
Yeah.
00:09:13.244 --> 00:09:14.504
So we got that moving.
00:09:15.073 --> 00:09:26.803
So I was able to get more insights and then when it came to working with clients, I came to the realization that I wasn't just tapping into my own intuition, my own higher guides, my own sources.
00:09:27.524 --> 00:09:30.283
I was able to tap into theirs as well.
00:09:30.344 --> 00:09:36.313
So I would receive messages that were meant to get to these people that through their own.
00:09:36.928 --> 00:09:40.889
Feelings of, you know, stuckness that they just weren't able to receive.
00:09:41.369 --> 00:09:45.899
So I was able to help deliver those messages so they would get off and running.
00:09:45.899 --> 00:09:49.528
So that's why I changed my title to Intuitive Momentum Coach.
00:09:49.528 --> 00:09:54.599
'cause personal trainers seemed, you know, like one avenue and then spiritual life coach was another.
00:09:55.048 --> 00:09:58.828
But Momentum is getting that energy in motion.
00:09:59.339 --> 00:10:03.538
That's what we were doing through the fusion of all of these things.
00:10:04.224 --> 00:10:07.163
And with the psychic channeling, which makes it very, very unique.
00:10:08.033 --> 00:10:09.908
So that's how it came to be.
00:10:11.259 --> 00:10:14.048
Uh, there's so many golden nuggets in there.
00:10:14.048 --> 00:10:17.708
There's a couple that I really wanna pull out and mm-hmm.
00:10:18.428 --> 00:10:21.938
Identify for our audience if they haven't heard it.
00:10:22.568 --> 00:10:25.599
One thing I heard pretty loud and clear is you shared your.
00:10:25.854 --> 00:10:27.563
Beautiful story.
00:10:28.163 --> 00:10:31.374
Um, and your journey is that it wasn't an overnight.
00:10:31.403 --> 00:10:34.913
You didn't wake up one morning and go, Bing, this is it.
00:10:34.913 --> 00:10:36.953
I'm going off and doing this now.
00:10:36.953 --> 00:10:49.073
It wasn't like an outside, it was a deep internal step by step journey that slowly you opens yourself up to experiencing.
00:10:49.344 --> 00:10:50.423
Would you s Yeah.
00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:52.389
Absolutely.
00:10:52.418 --> 00:10:53.288
Absolutely.
00:10:53.288 --> 00:10:59.859
And to, you know, it's really important to remember that, you know, it feels like we're always in this race with one another.
00:10:59.859 --> 00:11:06.729
Always comparing, you know, always, everybody has their own timing, their own layers to uncover.
00:11:06.729 --> 00:11:07.928
There's no rush.
00:11:07.989 --> 00:11:08.979
What's anyone's rush?
00:11:08.979 --> 00:11:10.239
Where do we have to be?
00:11:10.813 --> 00:11:11.833
Nowhere fast.
00:11:11.864 --> 00:11:11.923
Yeah.
00:11:11.984 --> 00:11:14.053
So really take your time.
00:11:14.234 --> 00:11:15.104
Take your time.
00:11:15.433 --> 00:11:24.283
We have so much pressure on us as it is just, you know, listen to yourself and stay on your own path because it's beautiful.
00:11:24.344 --> 00:11:25.214
It's beautiful.
00:11:25.423 --> 00:11:30.043
We could, you know, and I, and I compare it to a hiking trail and you know those little markers Oh yes.
00:11:30.553 --> 00:11:31.453
That are along the hiking trail.
00:11:31.724 --> 00:11:34.214
They don't tell you that you're there yet, but they tell you that.
00:11:34.514 --> 00:11:36.283
They're in that you're in the right direction.
00:11:36.673 --> 00:11:45.644
So you follow those little markers and along the path there's gonna be many lookouts that are absolutely beautiful to see along the way.
00:11:45.854 --> 00:11:52.693
You're gonna learn how to climb up these steep slopes and how to go down without falling.
00:11:53.563 --> 00:11:57.943
Or you could be chopper to the top and miss all of that entirely.
00:11:58.479 --> 00:11:58.769
Yeah.
00:11:59.413 --> 00:11:59.653
Yeah.
00:11:59.864 --> 00:12:03.553
You would've missed all of that along the way.
00:12:04.208 --> 00:12:06.068
So, I mean, take your time.
00:12:06.068 --> 00:12:11.349
Take the time that you need and don't worry about anybody else and what exactly what they're doing.
00:12:11.798 --> 00:12:12.788
Yeah, exactly.
00:12:12.788 --> 00:12:17.168
It's your journey and access it because it's, it's right there.
00:12:17.619 --> 00:12:27.698
And you were able to see the tiny components and listen deep enough to be able to know those nudges and what they were.
00:12:27.698 --> 00:12:31.119
You probably didn't understand them in the beginning, but as they continued and you.
00:12:31.828 --> 00:12:49.229
Made yourself open to it because, and, and correct me if I'm wrong, because they were not, um, so loud that they interfered and you got to push them away, but they were quieter, but there was something deeper inside of you knowing you had to move it.
00:12:49.649 --> 00:12:52.168
Is that Absolutely.
00:12:52.168 --> 00:12:52.229
Yeah.
00:12:52.349 --> 00:12:53.068
Absolutely.
00:12:53.308 --> 00:12:58.619
And if I were given all of this information at the beginning that, you know, Karen, this is what you're gonna be doing.
00:12:58.619 --> 00:12:58.739
Yeah.
00:12:59.408 --> 00:13:02.019
That version of Karen was very scared.
00:13:02.408 --> 00:13:02.619
Yes.
00:13:02.948 --> 00:13:04.599
Like I, I don't think I would've done it.
00:13:05.109 --> 00:13:05.499
Right.
00:13:05.528 --> 00:13:11.168
So you, given what we're need and the same with these messages that are received through psychic channeling.
00:13:11.438 --> 00:13:11.708
Yes.
00:13:11.739 --> 00:13:14.168
Whether it's for myself, for the collective or for members.
00:13:14.619 --> 00:13:17.408
We're given what we're meant to, to receive.
00:13:17.678 --> 00:13:17.948
Right.
00:13:17.948 --> 00:13:19.928
When we're meant to receive it.
00:13:19.928 --> 00:13:20.859
Exactly.
00:13:21.068 --> 00:13:22.119
Not a second sooner.
00:13:22.494 --> 00:13:23.364
Exactly.
00:13:23.484 --> 00:13:24.173
Exactly.
00:13:24.683 --> 00:13:27.563
And everything happens in the way it needs to happen.
00:13:27.563 --> 00:13:29.543
When it needs to happen, right?
00:13:29.663 --> 00:13:29.813
Yes.
00:13:29.844 --> 00:13:30.323
Yeah.
00:13:30.328 --> 00:13:30.509
Yes.
00:13:30.514 --> 00:13:30.774
Yeah.
00:13:31.433 --> 00:13:31.764
Yeah.
00:13:31.884 --> 00:13:38.693
I mean, do I wish that, you know, that my kids didn't experience me in that way when they were younger?
00:13:38.783 --> 00:13:39.744
Absolutely.
00:13:39.923 --> 00:13:44.428
But I don't spend a lot of time thinking about what was, it's an important, I don't.
00:13:44.964 --> 00:13:54.923
You'll find I don't spend a lot of time on my story because it, it's important to acknowledge and she really, that version of Karen shaped who I am now.
00:13:55.193 --> 00:13:55.313
Yeah.
00:13:55.344 --> 00:13:59.453
But I don't spend any time blaming anything or Yes.
00:13:59.484 --> 00:14:01.313
Anyone for any of that.
00:14:01.344 --> 00:14:01.703
Right.
00:14:02.903 --> 00:14:08.369
What I want to encourage, I just don't want anyone to experience their version of rock bottom.
00:14:08.739 --> 00:14:10.538
Right before something happens.
00:14:10.538 --> 00:14:12.249
So those little nudges.
00:14:12.249 --> 00:14:17.168
Yeah, we spend a lot of time making sense of things to soothe their mind.
00:14:17.889 --> 00:14:29.828
When your body's been talking to you in its own language for maybe a really long time, and your body has a way better understanding right of what's going on than anything up here ever will.
00:14:29.918 --> 00:14:34.058
So you'll never hear me use the word mindful because to me the mind is already full.
00:14:34.749 --> 00:14:35.769
Listen a little bit more to.
00:14:37.193 --> 00:14:38.274
Say that again.
00:14:38.484 --> 00:14:39.384
Say that again.
00:14:39.384 --> 00:14:40.614
That was brilliant.
00:14:40.614 --> 00:14:41.244
Thank you.
00:14:41.274 --> 00:14:41.573
Go.
00:14:42.504 --> 00:14:47.933
I feel like we're always using that word, but mindful the mind is already full.
00:14:48.083 --> 00:14:58.524
Listen to your body and the nudges that, that it often speaks in the language of symptoms, perhaps, and maybe it's been talking to you for a really long time.
00:14:58.524 --> 00:15:03.173
Listen to your body, be aware of your body, aware of your reactions, right?
00:15:04.644 --> 00:15:14.244
But yeah, it's, uh, we give this a lot of credit and a lot of power, and really it could just be delaying what's waiting for you and your body knows what that is.
00:15:14.634 --> 00:15:14.783
Yeah.
00:15:15.504 --> 00:15:17.484
This not so much right.
00:15:18.053 --> 00:15:19.224
Tuning into your body.
00:15:19.224 --> 00:15:20.634
So what does it mean?
00:15:22.043 --> 00:15:30.173
That, um, like coming home to yourself, like how does the body actually guide that process of coming home to yourself?
00:15:30.173 --> 00:15:36.234
You're talking about the body and it's very loud if you're paying attention and the power.
00:15:36.264 --> 00:15:36.354
Mm-hmm.
00:15:36.354 --> 00:15:37.193
It has.
00:15:37.193 --> 00:15:37.283
Mm-hmm.
00:15:37.289 --> 00:15:37.328
Um.
00:15:38.678 --> 00:15:42.068
What does it mean to be able to find that and come home to you?
00:15:42.999 --> 00:15:46.389
So we disconnect ourselves sometimes from our body.
00:15:46.389 --> 00:15:51.609
We think that our body has no relation to our path or purpose in this life, right?
00:15:51.609 --> 00:15:55.119
When it really, it's the vessel or vehicle that's driving you through it.
00:15:55.688 --> 00:15:57.969
So the body holds energy.
00:15:57.969 --> 00:15:59.349
It holds emotion, right?
00:15:59.379 --> 00:16:02.708
It holds a frequency and it holds memory.
00:16:02.918 --> 00:16:04.028
At transform.
00:16:04.028 --> 00:16:05.948
We're not here to always activate muscle.
00:16:05.948 --> 00:16:07.089
We're here to activate.
00:16:07.119 --> 00:16:08.619
Memory, right?
00:16:08.619 --> 00:16:17.033
So when we connect to our body, we're telling ourselves we're important, that we want to feel better.
00:16:17.798 --> 00:16:31.208
Right, and it just opens up a whole kind of, it just opens up an in, it's an invitation to, to, you know, feeling better and learning more about yourself and feeling, knowing what you're capable, what your body is capable.
00:16:31.208 --> 00:16:38.649
Because in this disconnect that we get with our body, you know, I've seen some people become scared of their body or they lose trust in it.
00:16:40.433 --> 00:16:47.033
You know, and our, or we don't like what we see, or we're hard on ourselves when we look at our reflection in the mirror.
00:16:47.333 --> 00:16:52.734
That reflection just wants you to see it the way that it sees you.
00:16:54.653 --> 00:17:00.173
So, and I, and I, uh, a good metaphor that I have is the body is like a speaker.
00:17:00.339 --> 00:17:00.428
Right.
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:03.219
You know, like a speaker that we're talking out of right now.
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:10.628
So a speaker, and then the sound that comes through the spirit is maybe your intuition, your spirit, your soul.
00:17:10.868 --> 00:17:13.028
But there's static happening, there's static.
00:17:13.058 --> 00:17:14.979
We just need help to tune it.
00:17:15.189 --> 00:17:16.358
So how do we tune it?
00:17:16.358 --> 00:17:24.308
We turn that little dial well, to me, that turning of that little dial is like movement and not everybody.
00:17:25.314 --> 00:17:28.193
Might resonate with strength training or lifting weights, right?
00:17:28.223 --> 00:17:33.203
Maybe for someone else stretching, meeting their body where it's at right now.
00:17:33.203 --> 00:17:40.253
So starting with stretching to connect with their body, yoga, martial arts, whatever it is, right?
00:17:40.463 --> 00:17:44.124
Finding that thing that sprinkles aspects of you in it.
00:17:44.273 --> 00:17:48.594
So not everybody that works with me, you know, needs to hire me as a personal trainer.
00:17:48.594 --> 00:17:50.213
I've got other options to work.
00:17:50.388 --> 00:17:51.409
Nice with people.
00:17:51.798 --> 00:17:57.618
It's just helping you to remember what is that thing that makes your body feel good?
00:17:58.009 --> 00:18:02.209
That also makes your spirit just light up, right?
00:18:02.239 --> 00:18:07.818
So it's asking the right questions and by finding out that real why.
00:18:08.544 --> 00:18:10.134
Their outcome becomes different.
00:18:10.223 --> 00:18:15.624
So there's always frequency attached to the reasons why people will do something.
00:18:16.104 --> 00:18:16.223
Okay.
00:18:16.223 --> 00:18:25.884
If they hire a personal trainer because they got a good deal, or you know it was they promised a fast result, well their outcome is probably gonna match that.
00:18:26.394 --> 00:18:26.784
Right?
00:18:26.844 --> 00:18:31.973
But if you ask more questions and you find out that somebody would like to.
00:18:32.469 --> 00:18:41.769
Hire a personal trainer or you know, move their body right in a different way that resonates with them because they wanna play with their grandchildren for as long as possible, right?
00:18:41.888 --> 00:18:44.648
They wanna get up and down on the floor, off the floor, right?
00:18:45.038 --> 00:18:49.209
They wanna hike with their husband because that is something that they just both enjoy.
00:18:49.239 --> 00:18:49.298
Yeah.
00:18:50.949 --> 00:18:53.318
That's gonna become a little bit deeper.
00:18:53.318 --> 00:18:55.088
Their why becomes deeper.
00:18:55.118 --> 00:18:58.989
Their outcome is gonna become deeper and more sustainable.
00:18:59.378 --> 00:18:59.648
Right.
00:18:59.679 --> 00:19:00.128
Okay.
00:19:00.219 --> 00:19:00.398
Yeah.
00:19:00.398 --> 00:19:00.729
Right.
00:19:00.729 --> 00:19:02.199
So it's just asking those questions.
00:19:02.199 --> 00:19:06.308
So many personal trainers will stop at the gate of the more physical, right?
00:19:06.308 --> 00:19:16.419
Whereas me, we ask, we go a little bit, oh, I, with their permission, we open up those gates, of course, and I start to ask people, you know, what makes them who they are?
00:19:16.598 --> 00:19:22.358
And oftentimes Denise, they don't have an answer because somewhere along the way, they've forgotten.
00:19:22.973 --> 00:19:27.534
Yeah, so some of my questions I asked'em about some of the stuff that they enjoyed doing when they were a child.
00:19:27.534 --> 00:19:27.923
Mm-hmm.
00:19:28.163 --> 00:19:31.074
What do you do where you lose track of time?
00:19:32.108 --> 00:19:35.378
Maybe we've forgotten'cause we haven't done those things in a while.
00:19:35.858 --> 00:19:53.318
So when I'm creating these summaries and I sit with people in my awareness, planning their workouts, or planning their, um, you know, their recommendations for outside of the gym, I make sure it's sprinkled with aspects of them that meet them where they are in a really practical and achievable way.
00:19:53.348 --> 00:19:55.989
I'm not asking anyone to go beyond themselves.
00:19:57.548 --> 00:19:59.048
All of a sudden, wow.
00:19:59.078 --> 00:20:00.909
You know, they start to feel better.
00:20:00.909 --> 00:20:11.679
They start to gain that momentum because now all of a sudden that energy that's been just sitting kind of, you know, resting in their bodies, is moving, moving, that's momentum.
00:20:12.338 --> 00:20:19.868
So, and receiving any messages from their higher guides, or, you know, sometimes a loved one that's pa you know, it, it, it changes, right?
00:20:19.898 --> 00:20:20.709
Whatever is.
00:20:21.713 --> 00:20:22.388
To reach them.
00:20:22.388 --> 00:20:22.554
Reach them.
00:20:22.644 --> 00:20:27.624
And again, I, you know, I wanna emphasize it doesn't matter who the message is coming from, it's what the message is.
00:20:28.223 --> 00:20:28.433
Right.
00:20:28.433 --> 00:20:28.463
Okay.
00:20:28.493 --> 00:20:29.183
Reaches them.
00:20:29.183 --> 00:20:33.308
And then that might help them to see past the blind spots be like, mm-hmm.
00:20:33.394 --> 00:20:39.173
Oh, it could be a phrase, a word, a memory, something that's ignited where they're like, oh.
00:20:39.953 --> 00:20:40.973
That's what it was.
00:20:40.973 --> 00:20:47.304
That was in my blind spot that was preventing me from seeing that beautiful lookout that was right there.
00:20:47.304 --> 00:20:47.364
Yeah.
00:20:47.364 --> 00:20:48.503
I just couldn't see it.
00:20:48.503 --> 00:20:51.564
'cause maybe this thing was right in my way.
00:20:51.713 --> 00:20:53.183
Right, right, right.
00:20:54.114 --> 00:20:58.558
So when you work with your clients mm-hmm.
00:20:59.058 --> 00:21:02.124
Um, I can only imagine, imagine.
00:21:02.903 --> 00:21:13.044
That the variety of messages that come through are dependent upon their energy, your energy, the combination thereof.
00:21:13.044 --> 00:21:27.804
And it's, and it's, it's any, any of those three elements that combine itself to create that response where you get messages or are you finding that.
00:21:28.403 --> 00:21:31.884
Um, you don't have to spend a lot of time like, how does that even work?
00:21:31.943 --> 00:21:33.834
Because I'm so intrigued by this.
00:21:33.864 --> 00:21:34.703
It's so incredible.
00:21:34.703 --> 00:21:46.463
So, so far, so there is a bit when kind of attached to their energy and when we speak at our initial conversation, we'll speak so I can, so we can see each other, because I find that that's really important.
00:21:46.933 --> 00:21:51.644
Because I can see how they use their body just in like, in conversation.
00:21:51.854 --> 00:21:51.943
Right.
00:21:51.943 --> 00:22:00.013
And I can feel their energy and I, I can feel their energy through a text, an email, through a conversation, just with having them in my awareness.
00:22:00.013 --> 00:22:00.523
Sure.
00:22:00.554 --> 00:22:11.233
Consciousness is very vast and when, you know, when we agree to work with one another, we're agreeing to be in each other's energy field.
00:22:11.239 --> 00:22:11.348
Right?
00:22:11.384 --> 00:22:11.773
Right.
00:22:11.773 --> 00:22:14.054
So through their energy.
00:22:14.739 --> 00:22:23.048
But there has been a really big variety and yeah, sometimes what might be blocking someone or someone, you know mm-hmm.
00:22:23.318 --> 00:22:26.409
Something in their blind spot is grief, for example.
00:22:26.503 --> 00:22:26.794
Sure.
00:22:27.013 --> 00:22:29.673
Um, so maybe a message from.
00:22:30.713 --> 00:22:36.773
You know, if, if there was a loss for them, that was close to them, a message from that individual is what we've experienced.
00:22:36.773 --> 00:22:45.384
So it's all very specific to the individual or something related to the weight of the world that's connected to their physical symptoms.
00:22:45.384 --> 00:22:49.433
Just the weight of, of not just one person, but just, you know.
00:22:49.778 --> 00:22:55.538
People's opinions or people's expectations are just weighing their body down.
00:22:55.989 --> 00:23:02.318
So really just connecting those dots for them, and that'll be from their higher self or their team of higher guides.
00:23:02.888 --> 00:23:09.909
But it's been a variety, you know, and some of it has really caught me up, but just I think that my direction is going one way, right?
00:23:09.973 --> 00:23:11.378
It just keeps me on my toes.
00:23:11.378 --> 00:23:11.709
I was like, what?
00:23:11.868 --> 00:23:13.459
Wasn't expecting that one.
00:23:13.729 --> 00:23:15.378
And it's evolving every day.
00:23:15.499 --> 00:23:24.439
And it is, and I, my gifts are evolving too, in that these, um, I would normally have to really kind of sit in solitude to receive these message.
00:23:24.588 --> 00:23:30.199
They're coming on more now in real time as well through conversation, which is really special.
00:23:30.739 --> 00:23:38.088
Um, so we're always in communication with each other through, through text, with the transform app or through, you know, regular conversations like this.
00:23:38.088 --> 00:23:39.169
And in person too.
00:23:39.223 --> 00:23:40.213
You know, maybe at the gym.
00:23:40.243 --> 00:23:48.673
So it's, um, yeah, it's been quite a variety and a variety too, on the people that reach out to me.
00:23:48.733 --> 00:23:48.854
Yeah.
00:23:48.854 --> 00:23:53.743
Men, women, you know, this work is for, for humans, it's for everyone.
00:23:53.923 --> 00:23:55.064
It's for everyone, right.
00:23:55.574 --> 00:23:55.663
Yeah.
00:23:55.814 --> 00:24:00.284
So, yeah, it's, uh, it's been, it's been quite a variety and has kept me on my toast.
00:24:01.243 --> 00:24:03.284
Well, I have to say.
00:24:03.653 --> 00:24:09.953
I am so thrilled that you have listened to your guides.
00:24:10.314 --> 00:24:14.903
You have taken time and space to understand.
00:24:14.903 --> 00:24:22.044
I know at the beginning you shared, um, that, that you, when you look at your past, this has always been.
00:24:22.723 --> 00:24:33.824
Part of who you are, but it's just come to light through your most recent, you know, in the 20 nineteens and beyond, things unfolding in the way that they needed to.
00:24:34.064 --> 00:24:41.713
I always believe that our journey is happening the way it has always meant to happen, even though we can't.
00:24:42.473 --> 00:24:44.784
Comprehend what's going on.
00:24:44.784 --> 00:25:03.743
It's much deeper than that, and I really, really love Karen, that your message is very clear, which is exactly why we do this show that this is for the importance of, um, women in particular, because that's our primary audience, but people in general we're going to say.
00:25:04.493 --> 00:25:12.713
Making sure you do for you by you because of you, because nobody else can take the journey for you.
00:25:13.074 --> 00:25:15.294
It is yours, right?
00:25:15.473 --> 00:25:30.983
And the way that you have incorporated all of your gifts and talents through the challenging journey that you have experienced, and not only come out the other side, but have.
00:25:31.763 --> 00:25:40.884
I'm gonna say grown wings as an angel path for so many who have the fortune to meet you.
00:25:41.528 --> 00:25:45.429
Connect with you in whatever form fashion that takes.
00:25:45.909 --> 00:25:51.038
And it really is an honor to share this time and space with you today.
00:25:51.489 --> 00:25:52.509
I'm so grateful.
00:25:52.868 --> 00:25:54.068
Well, thank you.
00:25:54.338 --> 00:25:55.358
I am the grateful one.
00:25:55.358 --> 00:25:55.838
Thank you.
00:25:56.108 --> 00:25:59.439
I'm glad that we, you know, found this connection.
00:25:59.439 --> 00:26:00.098
For sure.
00:26:00.669 --> 00:26:07.689
It's, you know, and you know, an important message for people too is just not to wait for your conditions to change.
00:26:07.929 --> 00:26:08.108
Yes.
00:26:08.709 --> 00:26:09.398
Um.
00:26:10.013 --> 00:26:19.013
We, you know, we, we delay things to just try to make sense of it, but it, there's nothing more freeing than just trusting what is.
00:26:19.013 --> 00:26:30.503
We don't need to necessarily know how the body is connected to everything, but just know that it is, trust that it is, you'll find out why once you go along.
00:26:30.503 --> 00:26:35.753
So just trust that it is, and just free yourself from those things that might be.
00:26:36.878 --> 00:26:38.318
Keeping you where you are, right?
00:26:38.439 --> 00:26:38.499
Yeah.
00:26:38.528 --> 00:26:41.618
From the life that you're meant to live, that you're ready to live.
00:26:41.618 --> 00:26:42.519
So Right.
00:26:42.999 --> 00:26:46.929
Taking these first, following those little nudges is really, it's really important.
00:26:47.409 --> 00:26:48.848
It's really key, isn't it?
00:26:48.969 --> 00:26:49.778
It really is.
00:26:49.808 --> 00:26:49.868
Yeah.
00:26:49.929 --> 00:26:57.278
And, and it's very quick how our mind enters in and becomes the, you know, the little on the shoulder note.
00:26:57.278 --> 00:26:57.999
What do you think of.
00:26:58.088 --> 00:26:59.679
What are you thinking about that?
00:26:59.679 --> 00:27:01.269
Why do you think you could ever do that?
00:27:01.298 --> 00:27:05.709
All this stuff, and that does have a way of quieting down over time.
00:27:05.979 --> 00:27:06.128
Hmm.
00:27:07.028 --> 00:27:07.538
Right?
00:27:07.538 --> 00:27:07.598
Yeah.
00:27:07.598 --> 00:27:21.338
It really truly can, you know, if you just really remember why you're doing this in the first place and give yourself love and compassion, some of those voices that are up here, they'll start, they'll start to quiet down.
00:27:21.398 --> 00:27:22.479
So just really, yeah.
00:27:22.479 --> 00:27:27.249
And when we, and I feel this is my hope for the future is through every.
00:27:27.294 --> 00:27:36.023
Person who I connect with or who I reach, or you know you with your clients and the people that you reach through your podcast.
00:27:36.503 --> 00:27:43.463
If we can help encourage people to love and accept themselves, it all starts here.
00:27:44.064 --> 00:27:45.503
Then and only then.
00:27:45.973 --> 00:27:50.564
Can we truly actually accept other people and appreciate other people?
00:27:51.163 --> 00:27:53.594
Because otherwise we're just pretending.
00:27:53.624 --> 00:27:57.673
We're performing and pretending in this life, which maybe we've been doing for a while.
00:27:58.273 --> 00:28:08.294
But when you learn and really appreciate and accept yourself, you'll appreciate other people and see that we're all living and experiencing through our own lens.
00:28:09.449 --> 00:28:11.068
That's my hope for the future.
00:28:11.128 --> 00:28:20.909
That's how I feel like the world is then gonna become a better place when we learn to actually value and appreciate each other, because we've accepted ourselves.
00:28:20.939 --> 00:28:22.439
So it all starts here.
00:28:22.858 --> 00:28:23.308
Right?
00:28:23.398 --> 00:28:23.848
Right.
00:28:24.179 --> 00:28:32.578
And when we start there and when we understand the importance of yourself.
00:28:33.473 --> 00:28:38.394
And, and this is the thing that I find that the women that I work with really struggle with.
00:28:38.394 --> 00:28:46.824
That they feel that, feel that that is egocentric where you start to think about your as important as everybody else.
00:28:46.824 --> 00:28:50.064
And that is falsehood 1 0 1.
00:28:50.124 --> 00:28:51.503
Like who?
00:28:51.503 --> 00:28:52.403
Whoever.
00:28:52.824 --> 00:29:00.624
Gave that lip service, I mean, it's in the sphere for sure, but we need to remove it.
00:29:00.653 --> 00:29:01.943
We need to change it.
00:29:01.973 --> 00:29:12.773
And the only way we can do that is through our types of conversations and giving people the, not only the concept, but the.
00:29:13.388 --> 00:29:18.608
Propensity and power to go ahead and move forward for themselves.
00:29:18.608 --> 00:29:18.669
Yeah.
00:29:19.179 --> 00:29:20.378
And what, yeah.
00:29:20.378 --> 00:29:20.739
Right.
00:29:20.739 --> 00:29:24.878
When we do that, everything changes in so many ways.
00:29:25.449 --> 00:29:33.489
Women, I mean, we, we are just, it's in our blood to nurture and care for others, and that's a really, it's a barrier.
00:29:33.489 --> 00:29:42.009
It was a barrier for myself for a long time, and even in the beginning when I chose and hired a personal trainer, I, I had young children at home.
00:29:42.128 --> 00:29:42.489
I.
00:29:42.864 --> 00:29:46.403
You know, shouldn't have used that time for myself.
00:29:46.403 --> 00:29:59.874
I shouldn't have spent that money, but oh my gosh, I'm so glad I did because now because I show up for myself, I show up for my kids and I'll show up better in the world.
00:29:59.903 --> 00:30:04.463
My definition of definition of fitness, I changed it because I.
00:30:05.213 --> 00:30:08.663
Want it to be more encompassing, more holistic.
00:30:09.084 --> 00:30:16.584
It is about being sound in your environment inside, so we can be more sound in our environment around us.
00:30:16.584 --> 00:30:20.993
It has nothing to do with reps or weight or macros or equipment.
00:30:21.084 --> 00:30:22.673
It has nothing to do with that.
00:30:23.124 --> 00:30:24.233
It's in here.
00:30:24.713 --> 00:30:32.213
So when people think that you know that it's selfish or you know that they shouldn't be taking that time for themselves.
00:30:33.864 --> 00:30:37.943
That is a big reason why you, why it's a good idea.
00:30:37.973 --> 00:30:40.253
'cause you'll show up and you'll care for others.
00:30:40.253 --> 00:30:45.594
But really we need to focus on ourselves and it's just shifting that paradigm now.
00:30:45.624 --> 00:30:45.713
Mm-hmm.
00:30:45.953 --> 00:30:48.834
That's just been ingrained in us for so long.
00:30:48.834 --> 00:30:51.263
Let's shift that paradigm a little bit.
00:30:51.324 --> 00:30:51.473
Yeah.
00:30:51.503 --> 00:30:56.903
So it's become more freeing for women, especially to just take those steps.
00:30:57.564 --> 00:31:09.443
And the thing that I'd, I'd love to add to that is you are also modeling for your children so that they can see the importance of making sure you look after yourself.
00:31:10.223 --> 00:31:13.374
And when you give them that underpinning.
00:31:14.124 --> 00:31:40.013
They're going to, they're not gonna battle as much or as harder or as long for giving back to themselves, which I love, which is, I think you know why we need to do this work and why we need to have these conversations and why we need to have people like you in this beautiful world to be able to show us what can happen when we do change ourselves from the inside out.
00:31:40.733 --> 00:31:46.584
It doesn't just stop at us by focusing on ourselves, and I'll use my own family as an example.
00:31:46.733 --> 00:31:47.334
You're right.
00:31:47.334 --> 00:31:48.683
You know, thank you for bringing that up.
00:31:48.683 --> 00:31:51.023
My children see something different.
00:31:51.023 --> 00:31:53.003
My husband's taking care of myself.
00:31:53.513 --> 00:31:53.574
Yeah.
00:31:53.604 --> 00:32:05.243
It has healed something in my own mom, you know, because she sees us taking care of her, you know, as, so maybe if there's something inside of her, a layer that you know that is.
00:32:06.729 --> 00:32:10.808
A little bit of attention that that just helps her so it doesn't just stop.
00:32:11.078 --> 00:32:14.558
It's so, so important because you did one thing.
00:32:15.249 --> 00:32:15.429
Yeah.
00:32:16.223 --> 00:32:17.513
Seems pretty worth it to me.
00:32:17.844 --> 00:32:19.493
Yeah, it's a win.
00:32:19.493 --> 00:32:23.153
It's the Stephen Covey win, win, win all the way around.
00:32:23.153 --> 00:32:23.213
Yeah.
00:32:23.423 --> 00:32:23.723
Right.
00:32:23.723 --> 00:32:28.913
Without, yeah, with, and the part I love is that it's without having to make it happen outside of you.
00:32:29.513 --> 00:32:29.574
Yeah.
00:32:29.574 --> 00:32:37.943
You just start doing that for you and your sphere of influence starts changing without you having to create the atmosphere for such.
00:32:37.943 --> 00:32:43.673
'cause you're already creating it through the energy you're putting out because you're happier with who you are.
00:32:43.943 --> 00:32:44.483
Exactly.
00:32:44.814 --> 00:32:47.064
You know, I would love to change.
00:32:47.394 --> 00:32:51.624
Uh, you know, and I don't agree that fitness is an industry, and we see it in spirituality too.
00:32:51.624 --> 00:32:52.763
It's become an industry.
00:32:52.763 --> 00:32:53.933
When does that even happen?
00:32:53.933 --> 00:32:54.503
I don't know.
00:32:54.703 --> 00:33:06.743
But, you know, but I'm one person, so I, maybe I can't, I can't really, I'd love to influence a new idea when it comes to fitness, but I can hold space for all of those people who don't know.
00:33:06.743 --> 00:33:09.953
And don't get me wrong, there's many people who resonate with health and that's.
00:33:09.953 --> 00:33:10.453
Fine.
00:33:10.453 --> 00:33:12.733
You know, and that's great and I'm happy for them.
00:33:13.003 --> 00:33:13.124
Yeah.
00:33:13.153 --> 00:33:17.773
But there are people out there who just don't see themselves with what's being portrayed.
00:33:17.773 --> 00:33:19.124
So I will hold space.
00:33:19.304 --> 00:33:20.564
I will never stop.
00:33:20.953 --> 00:33:26.173
I will hold space and uh, for those people so they know that fitness is in here.
00:33:26.233 --> 00:33:28.784
Everybody, you know, it isn't a luxury.
00:33:28.784 --> 00:33:29.413
It's a right.
00:33:29.413 --> 00:33:31.784
We all have you belong here.
00:33:31.844 --> 00:33:36.463
I want people to feel welcome just as I would welcome them in my own home.
00:33:36.614 --> 00:33:36.794
Yeah.
00:33:37.094 --> 00:33:40.423
You're not subscribing to an idea or a template, right?
00:33:40.423 --> 00:33:41.443
It's a relationship.
00:33:41.443 --> 00:33:45.193
It's a sacred relationship, you know, of somebody that knows.
00:33:45.773 --> 00:33:48.203
All the dimensions perfect.
00:33:48.203 --> 00:33:50.003
Because we're multidimensional beings.
00:33:50.304 --> 00:33:54.503
You know, just like I don't say mindful, I rarely say the word program either.
00:33:54.503 --> 00:33:54.564
Yeah.
00:33:54.564 --> 00:33:56.784
Because we cannot be programmed, right.
00:33:56.784 --> 00:33:57.324
We're human.
00:33:57.324 --> 00:34:01.763
We have all these different layers, so go easy on yourself.
00:34:01.763 --> 00:34:05.574
And again, the changes, they don't have to perfect or incremental.
00:34:05.574 --> 00:34:07.554
When things happen, life happens.
00:34:08.213 --> 00:34:10.074
Give yourself grace and compassion.
00:34:10.074 --> 00:34:11.784
And tomorrow is a new day.
00:34:12.114 --> 00:34:12.293
Yeah.
00:34:12.923 --> 00:34:13.614
Perfect.
00:34:14.454 --> 00:34:31.824
Karen, thank you so, so much for your time, your energy, your positivity, your experience that you've shared, which I know, I'm sure there are nights you probably in days you probably think, whoa.
00:34:32.094 --> 00:34:33.414
What has happened.
00:34:33.414 --> 00:34:38.603
I'm so grateful that you've been here to share this time with us.
00:34:38.693 --> 00:34:51.474
We will have all the information in the show notes so people can reach out, find you, connect with you, watch you experience the energy that you are so graciously giving on a daily basis.
00:34:51.474 --> 00:34:58.494
Do you have any words that you wanna share with the audience before we close off this great conversation?
00:34:59.588 --> 00:35:05.469
Well just to, we're always seeking something, you know, waiting for that thing.
00:35:05.469 --> 00:35:08.829
You are the thing that you've been waiting for.
00:35:10.088 --> 00:35:10.929
You are it.
00:35:11.829 --> 00:35:12.608
You are it.
00:35:12.608 --> 00:35:17.349
So just free yourself from just trying to.
00:35:18.608 --> 00:35:22.599
You know, compete in this race that just seems to be happening around us.
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:24.309
Pause, be present.
00:35:25.028 --> 00:35:27.248
You are what you've been waiting for.
00:35:27.518 --> 00:35:28.688
So that would be my.
00:35:29.844 --> 00:35:30.923
That would be my advice.
00:35:30.923 --> 00:35:31.974
That's what I'm hearing a lot.
00:35:32.903 --> 00:35:33.353
Perfect.
00:35:33.353 --> 00:35:39.534
And you're gonna do this for you by you because of you, because you are going to thrive after 45.
00:35:39.534 --> 00:35:41.693
Thank you all for listening.
00:35:42.143 --> 00:35:44.693
Please, please, please give a review.
00:35:44.693 --> 00:35:55.824
If this resonates with you, we would love to hear from you and again, check the show notes so that you can reach out and connect with Karen to have even more conversation.
00:35:55.974 --> 00:35:56.994
Take care everyone.
00:35:57.023 --> 00:35:57.713
Have a great day.
