Chapter 1: How can I shift my mindset to focus on the positive?
But stopping, getting still, being very, very intentional, praying for and asking for what it is you need, and then letting it go. And since I've been practicing this over the last, I told you the first time I did it was right before Saudi Arabia. And every single thing came true that I prayed for. It was crazy. And I just did what it said to do in the book.
It was wild, just miraculous, literally not short of a miracle. And it's so simple. Pray for and ask for what you want and need and then let it go and have this knowing and this faith that it's going to happen and watch that it will. Come on this journey with me. Each week when you join me, we are going to chase down our goals, overcome adversity, and set you up for a better tomorrow.
I'm ready for my close-up. It's that time of the year again. I hope you're cozy and spending time with your loved ones, enjoying this holiday season as much as I am. And I thought there would be no better time than today to reflect on the power of our faith. You know, this plays a huge part in my life and business, and it is truly the key to creating confidence, confidence that is unshakable.
So I put together some of my favorite solos where I share how having faith showed me again and again, that there is a higher power guiding me. And it is always out there. It is always there for you. And it's always available to you. And it's so much better than you ever could imagine. And I know this can be true for you too. All you have to do is just keep the faith. I hope you love this episode.
Today, I was at church with my son, and the message was so incredibly powerful. I'm big into believing in signs. I don't know if you are, but I ask God for signs all of the time. So I keep looking for these signs everywhere. And I was given a huge sign at church. It was so crazy. This is surreal.
But I started thinking this week about a new book that I want to write, and it's totally out of character for me. But I wrote down the title. Like anything, you have to start somewhere, right? Like, people think that you have this whole big plan and strategy. I don't have that.
Like a little seed of a thought will come to me and then I plant it in the ground, pour water on it, pay attention to it and see what happens, right? So I was kind of doing that this week, writing some things down on paper. And I wrote down the title of this book. Oh my gosh, this is so crazy. All I'm going to tell you is when I got to church today, they had these cards they were passing out.
It's like this new online journaling thing that they have for people who attend this church. And And the cover art on the paper is the same name that I had written down for this book that came to me this week. If that isn't a flipping sign, it's crazy. And it's completely out of character for me. And I walk into church and it's on a piece of paper. So to me, look for those signs.
Be open to receiving those signs out there. And if you think I'm being woo-woo, that's fine. but at least open your mind to it could be possible and start asking the question, right? Wouldn't you want that gift to be handed to you? Wouldn't you want that way to be shown?

Chapter 2: What is the power of faith in achieving goals?
But it just helps you to see what's out there. And then you can connect those dots back to what you're knowing is your belief system is, which I think is super interesting. So I love learning from people that are very different than me. And the Mindvalley experience has been very different stuff.
I'm not, you know, a big yogi or, you know, but I love learning from these people because they think so differently than me. However, and my friend pointed this out to me, she was saying so much about the work that she's been doing around manifesting and visualizing and feeling the feels and having the belief that these things are coming to fruition, that they've already happened.
Sounds very, very similar to me and Christian faith and the messages I bring to her from the church. And it was so interesting. We're always talking about in church, you know, this faith and this knowing and this belief that this is happening, even when you can't see it, this belief and this trust and this knowing. And she was right. There's a lot of parallels.
And I know this through the lens of the church, but listening to her, I saw the parallels. I saw the alignment. I saw that...
Listen, whether it's the movie The Secret or, you know, you're taking a class at Mindvalley and learning about how to manifest something or there's books going back to literally the Bible, which is talking about planting the seeds for growth for, you know, the future vision that you're future casting. very different words, but all of the methodology is so, so similar.
So that's not by chance, right? I just want you to know that whether it be Napoleon Hill's famous book, Think and Grow Rich, or there's these books going back, you know, a hundred years ago, hundreds of years ago, and back to the Bible, they're all saying the same thing. You've got to believe in order to receive. You've got to believe it in order to see it. You've got to have faith.
You've got to have this knowing. And yes, you need to expect it. Expect it and know it that it's going to come. Not knowing how it will and being open to that, but preparing for it now as if today is the day.
I'm a big believer in frequency cells, that which we see often, that which we expose ourselves to information often, we have a better chance to retain that information and remember it, right? And so our pastor today was just talking about, we need that reminder that God is good in our life. God is real and God is with you always. And that's the reminder. It was our seven-year birthday.
I have not been going to the church that long. This is my first year going to this church. But they've been in existence for seven years. And he was taking everyone through how eight years ago, before the church was formed, he and his wife were praying to God to help them find somewhere that they could preach, find somewhere that they could share God's Word. And they stumbled upon a school—

Chapter 3: How can I recognize signs and miracles in my life?
It was just everything so confusing in that moment. And I just said to her, I'm like, lady, I don't know. Just get the EMTs here now, please. I'm begging her. And my friend is as well in the background. And so she's like, give me the address again. I gave it to her again. And my friend keeps yelling, where are they? Where are the EMTs?
So anyhow, at some point, my friend starts getting upset, like more aggressive. And so we said, please tell us when are they going to be here? She said, you have been on the phone with me for one minute and 15 seconds. I need you to stay calm.
What was interesting is when she said that, I was very grateful and I thanked her because in my mind, I thought we'd been on the phone for 10 minutes and that he'd been laying in there for 10 minutes and we don't know if he's alive or not. And I didn't know what to do to save him. But I guess when you panic to that level, everything's distorted.
So I'm just telling you this in case anything like this ever happens. Number one, focus on just picking up the phone and calling 911 immediately. Listen to what the 911 operator tells you to do. And so she started saying to me, get someone else, Heather, to go into the house and see if he's breathing. So my friend's mother-in-law ran in and checked and he seemed to be breathing.
I asked you to try to find your passion.
He was not blue, right? These were all good signs, right? But he's still not coming to, he's still out cold. Okay, so all I'm seeing is what's happening on the outside and what they're yelling back to me to report back to 911. So 911 just says, leave him on the floor. Don't touch him.
The firefighters actually are the ones that get there first to a situation like this or the police, but not the EMTs. And I didn't know that. So it was interesting. And so don't be surprised if you ever are in a situation like this, that the firefighters or police will come first. Obviously, they're trained on CPR. They are very well versed and trained in this. And they see this all of the time.
And actually, they had just come from another call, very, very similar, like almost exact same thing, not the same outcome that we had. So anyhow, what I didn't know is I didn't know what was going on inside the house. And I'm going to tell you about that in a minute. So all I see is what's happening on the outside. I have no idea what's happening inside.
I just didn't want to lose the cell service. I didn't want to lose the call. And I wanted to flag down the team coming in to help him to get him in the house as fast as possible. Every second counts when you're in a crisis situation. All of a sudden I see the fire truck first and they come running in, you know, we had the door open for them. They went running right in.
