mss jj D Geronimo. Well,
hello, and welcome to the Successful

37
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:08.639
Women's Show. Oh thank you,
actor Madeline. I am thrilled to be

38
00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:13.280
here. Well, I tell you
what I always start off by giving the

39
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:17.759
standard bio all my guests, but
then I like to ask the question,

40
00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:25.040
or really just ask them to tell
us what you want us to know about

41
00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:32.480
JJ D Geronimo. Jj D Geronimo
is a woman in business that had come

42
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:40.360
up against many many obstacles when striving
for her goals and was certain that there

43
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:46.439
was another way to get it done. And I have spent the last fifteen

44
00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:51.959
years really gathering strategies, best practices
and insights not only for my career,

45
00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:56.360
but to share them with other women
across the world so they too can make

46
00:04:56.360 --> 00:05:00.680
their goals a reality. Wow,
that is always a good thing. I

47
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:03.839
love it. I love it.
I love it because that is my mission

48
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:08.920
too, to just make sure these
ladies have to U can get around some

49
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:12.800
of the obstacles that you know they
may have to face when trying to get

50
00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:18.480
where they're they're wanting to go.
So tell us what should people do when

51
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:25.240
they start asking questions like what is
this all for? Or now what?

52
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:30.839
Or is there more? And I
asked that because you're you know you your

53
00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:34.399
book on Seeking, I know it
deals with a lot of this, So

54
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:39.240
tell us about that. Yes,
yes, and so Seeking is my third

55
00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:43.600
book, and it's something that has
sort of come to me later in life

56
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:49.120
in the sense that I achieved many
of the goals I had strived for because

57
00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:53.360
of the other books and research and
things I've done prior to this. But

58
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:56.680
I did get to a point in
my life where I was striving and driving

59
00:05:56.720 --> 00:06:00.519
so hard, but I really didn't
feel the joy and success is that I

60
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.399
thought I would feel. And it
kind of came to a point in my

61
00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:10.839
own life where I had to sort
of turn around my navigation system that was

62
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:16.759
so outwardly pointed all the time to
do some inside work. Wow, So

63
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:23.519
you literally asked yourself those questions then, like what is this all for?

64
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:28.279
I mean, how did you get
past that? Or how did you know

65
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:33.079
exactly what you were seeking? Or
were you seeking anything? I didn't know

66
00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:35.560
what I was seeking, but I
kind of thought by this point in my

67
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:39.839
life that I would have a lot
more joy, that I would feel like

68
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:42.920
I could take my foot off the
pedal a little bit. But I felt

69
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:47.920
just as anxious and driven as I
did in my late twenties and early thirties,

70
00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:53.040
and I just realized that no matter
what I conquered, what parrot I

71
00:06:53.120 --> 00:07:00.199
went after, what title I ran
for, that I was not going to

72
00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:06.319
satisfy that. That just tenacious energy
to get there all the time, And

73
00:07:06.560 --> 00:07:10.680
honestly, I couldn't even tell you
where there is, but I was so

74
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:15.199
busy working to get there. Wow. And that's I think that's the way

75
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:19.800
a lot of us are. You
know, we as you say that you

76
00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:25.879
know that the topic seeking, we're
all probably seeking something and in a lot

77
00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:30.720
of cases we just don't know what
that something is. So I know you

78
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:39.519
also refer to something you say about
working on releasing stories within tell us about

79
00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:43.079
that. What do you mean by
that? Yeah, I'm just kind of

80
00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:49.439
going to the book now. So
interesting because I ended up in a therapist's

81
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:56.199
office and I remember sitting there thinking, this is ridiculous. I can figure

82
00:07:56.240 --> 00:08:01.040
this out for myself. But the
reality was I couldn't. And when I

83
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:03.839
talked to her about where I was
in my life, what was happening in

84
00:08:03.879 --> 00:08:09.720
the personal sides of my life,
I was really struggling. And it wasn't

85
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:15.639
the struggle that most people would think, like, oh, she's you know

86
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:18.759
some people I made me say I'm
going through mid life crisis, or you

87
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:22.959
know, maybe I should have more
wine, or I should go on more

88
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:26.240
trips. But I knew it was
more than that. I knew like I

89
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:30.279
needed a real shift, but I
didn't know how to start. And thankfully

90
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:35.960
the therapist that I went to was
really guided me towards mindfulness training, which

91
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:39.720
at the time when she told me, I mean I think, I started

92
00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:41.840
crying. I was like, no, I really am lost in my own

93
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:46.440
choices. Even though from the outside
I looked like I've got everything going in

94
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:50.200
the right direction, I feel lost. And she said, you must go

95
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:52.879
to mindfulness training. They have a
class. It's starting in a couple of

96
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:56.960
weeks. Blah blah blah, And
of course I went home and did not

97
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.679
sign up for it. And then
I went back to her again and she

98
00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:05.720
said, JJ, do not come
back here unless you sign up for that

99
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:09.000
mindfulness training. And I just was
annoyed. I was like, I feel

100
00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:13.200
like I was going through like my
own reckoning that how could this mindfulness thing

101
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:18.279
help me? But fast forward,
it really was the cornerstone for the work

102
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:22.639
that I the inside work that I
did for years to follow. And I

103
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:28.399
think a lot of women struggle because
the voices in their head, the stories

104
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:31.679
they're telling themselves, the things they've
collected from second grade, you know,

105
00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:37.759
junior year of high school and even
beyond often impacts our decisions and the way

106
00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:41.879
we feel about ourselves. And for
me, mindfulness was really the key that

107
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:48.759
helped me unlock that energy so that
I could have more joy in that current

108
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:56.279
moment. Wow, Wow mindfulness.
So why do you think so many people

109
00:09:56.360 --> 00:10:03.840
may have a hard time with mindfulness? Do you have a lot of clients

110
00:10:03.879 --> 00:10:07.320
that you work with on, you
know, getting through that or figuring that

111
00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:11.000
out. Well, I'm a one
to many person and so I do a

112
00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:15.559
lot of keynote speaking and I do
talk about this quite a bit because I

113
00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:18.360
often start I used to start years
ago with real strategies to get a get

114
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:22.840
to that next level, give that, you know, invitation to that board

115
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:28.600
seat, get aligned with that next
strategic position. What I realized is that

116
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:35.320
if we don't stop and think about
how we talk to ourselves, what we

117
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:41.399
say when we're eagerly thinking about what
we want to do next, if we

118
00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:46.399
don't really do that inside work,
oftentimes the outside is not going to change.

119
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:54.000
Okay, now that kind of brings
me to something interesting that I actually

120
00:10:54.039 --> 00:11:00.240
got in my email just probably this
week, and it was about the law

121
00:11:00.279 --> 00:11:03.240
of attraction. Do you think that
that has anything you know, is there

122
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:09.960
any type of correlation between the law
of attraction and you know, mindfulness?

123
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:13.879
Do you think that that's related in
any way? Yeah? I think if

124
00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:16.840
you ask most people, they would
say that they were positive and they had

125
00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:20.120
gratitude. I think most people would
say that in general. But if the

126
00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:24.279
reality is when you talk to women
about what they want to do next,

127
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:26.320
what seat they want to get in, what title they want to achieve,

128
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:30.480
and you say, okay, great, what is that? What is that

129
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:35.799
for you? And they'll tell you
generally within minutes, they'll either tell me

130
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:39.679
or you why it's not going to
work, why now is not the time,

131
00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:43.600
why they're not ready, why they
need another certification. If we're lucky,

132
00:11:43.639 --> 00:11:45.720
we'll hear all those things. If
we're not lucky to hear them,

133
00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:48.759
they'll be saying many of those things
to themselves. And when they're saying those

134
00:11:48.759 --> 00:11:54.279
things to themselves, they're talking themselves
out of leaning in. And what I

135
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:58.360
tell a lot of women is like
that, research shows women wait and to

136
00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:01.200
be one hundred percent prepared before they
do anything. And the reality is,

137
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:07.159
if you are waiting to be one
hundred percent prepared once, you're never going

138
00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:09.759
to go anywhere because there's no way
you can be prepared for something you've never

139
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:15.519
done. And two, you're not
going to build your self efficacy. And

140
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:18.759
self efficacy is having a vision for
where you want to go and believing you

141
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:24.679
can achieve it. It's something that's
learned and it's essentially bucket you carry around

142
00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:26.519
and every time you wait to be
one hundred percent ready, you have no

143
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:31.639
coins to put into your self plicacy
bucket, which is the bucket that you

144
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:35.879
use when you're unsure about your choices
or you're not sure if you're ready.

145
00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:43.440
Wow, now you hit the nail
on the head about women waiting until they

146
00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:46.039
are prepared one hundred percent. That's
one of the things I say in my

147
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:50.200
TED talk when I'd say, you
know, men will apply for a position

148
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:56.159
when they have only sixty percent of
the requirements, but women, like you

149
00:12:56.200 --> 00:13:01.519
said, they won't apply unless they
feel they have one hundred of the requirements.

150
00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:05.440
And I mean, you wonder why
that is, because you know,

151
00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:09.840
what's the difference in the mindset.
You know what's the difference in the thinking

152
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:13.720
that the man can say, oh, well, i have number one,

153
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.679
number four, number five, so
I'm gonna apply for this, but the

154
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:20.799
woman to look at it, and
she may even have more qualifications, but

155
00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:26.039
she still won't go for it if
she can't check all the boxes. That's

156
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:28.759
amazing because we're trained. We're trained
from a young age. The way we

157
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:33.559
trained the little girls and little boys
is very different. Right. Little girls

158
00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:37.879
are often aligned to very domestic things
to do them right. Men our boys

159
00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:41.799
are often aligned to outdoor things.
It's just like we And those are the

160
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:46.200
stories I'm talking about that you have
to unwind, and you can only unwind

161
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:50.759
them if you know that they're there, and the only way to know that

162
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:54.320
they're there is you have to be
mindful of your thoughts, which I had

163
00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:58.960
to be trained to do because society
makes us believe that everything we need is

164
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:03.919
outside of us, and they're going
to tell us through the television and ads

165
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:07.799
and social media what we need when, and so we have to pause that

166
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:11.559
stream of information to really sit with
ourselves in a way that we haven't done

167
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:15.919
before or haven't done often, to
say, you know what, when I

168
00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:20.120
say I'm going to go for this
position, what am I saying to myself?

169
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:24.080
What are the first few things I
say? I need to write those

170
00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:26.279
down, I need to look at
those? Are those supportive? Where did

171
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:30.480
those stem from? When did I
hear those for the first time? And

172
00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:39.799
how do I underwind that conversation?
Wow? So when you finally listen to

173
00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:46.240
your therapist and went through through the
mindfulness training, what did that entail?

174
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:50.480
I mean, what did you literally
have to do? You know? How

175
00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:52.759
did you do? I mean,
did you just sit in a room and

176
00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:58.159
just say block out everything and say
I'm going to sit here until I get

177
00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:01.519
it, or what exact did you
do? That's a great question, because

178
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:05.399
I showed up with my notebooks,
my coffee, my favorite pen, some

179
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:09.240
colored markers, some sicky notes,
because I was going to get stuff done

180
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:13.039
while I was there. You know, it's a three hour class for eight

181
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:16.799
Sundays, and I was going to
get stuff done. And after the first

182
00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:20.600
class, my teacher asked me what
all that stuff was for and if I

183
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:24.399
could kindly leave it in the car, and I was like, no way,

184
00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:28.559
because I'm going to get stuff done. And it took me a couple

185
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:31.399
of classes to be quite honest,
I mean it really did, and the

186
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:37.200
whole idea. She does several exercises
based on John Cabotsin's training. One of

187
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:41.960
them is eating a dried cherry,
So you know, she talks you through

188
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:48.600
how to be in the moment when
you're eating, how to really conduct mindful

189
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:54.000
eating because most of us watch something, read something, talk on the phone,

190
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:58.759
drive while we're eating, and so
really teaching yourself how to be in

191
00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:03.360
the moment in such a simple task
was really challenging, and she continued to

192
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:06.960
build on from that each week.
But I will tell you the most beautiful

193
00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:11.919
thing of mindfulness is that I am
a viewer, a front row viewer of

194
00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:15.679
my thoughts, which you cannot stop. They're there all the time, but

195
00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:19.159
you get to decide which ones you
want to hold on to and which ones

196
00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:22.279
you want to let go. And
I could never have done that by myself,

197
00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:27.679
Like I had to get formal training
to learn how to create that space

198
00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:33.240
and awareness for what I talk about
in my head all the time and how

199
00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:40.799
that drives my decisions. So you
do feel that the mindfulness trainee actually did

200
00:16:40.879 --> 00:16:44.960
change your life. Oh my gosh, it changed. It was really the

201
00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:48.600
cornerstone or the launching pad, because
then I started getting interested in all different

202
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:55.639
types of modalities, energy practices,
healers, ancient wisdom, and I really

203
00:16:55.639 --> 00:16:59.559
did a six year journey of seeking
of what is out there? What can

204
00:16:59.600 --> 00:17:06.079
I learn about myself and how will
that help me create more self satisfaction in

205
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:10.759
the sense that I'm just comfortable in
my own skin and potential joy. And

206
00:17:10.799 --> 00:17:15.160
that's what I talk about in my
third book, Seeking is their key strategies

207
00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:19.519
to raise your energy, sidestep your
self, dout, and align with your

208
00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:23.720
life's work. Because that's really what
came out of all of this seeking.

209
00:17:25.119 --> 00:17:33.079
That was an inside job. Wow. So how can we shift from seeking

210
00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:40.920
outward to seeking inward? That's a
great question. That's a great question.

211
00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:45.000
So the first thing is your thoughts. I mean, you really have to

212
00:17:45.079 --> 00:17:48.200
mine your thoughts. I think the
second thing is you have to pay attention

213
00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:51.920
to what you pay attention to.
So what shows are you watching, what

214
00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:56.160
things are you eating, What conversations
do you find yourself in, what friends

215
00:17:56.279 --> 00:18:00.200
are in your inner circle? You
know, what interests you. I think

216
00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:02.759
for so many of us, we're
all over the board like a ping pong

217
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:06.240
ball with the energy that we hold. And for many of us, if

218
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:11.559
we want to really leap into that
next level of influencer impact, we often

219
00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:15.880
often have to hone our energy.
We have to create a launching pad for

220
00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:19.079
ourselves. And oftentimes you really got
to get yourself in the right space because

221
00:18:19.079 --> 00:18:22.720
many of us will say that we're
positive, we have gratitude, but we're

222
00:18:22.720 --> 00:18:26.160
the first ones in our head or
out loud to yell at somebody in the

223
00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:30.200
parking lot, be mad about the
coffee machine, you know, take it

224
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:33.400
out on somebody and our family,
you know. And I feel like I

225
00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:40.279
really had to hone in my energy
and really manage how I was showing up

226
00:18:40.279 --> 00:18:45.240
in the world. Wow, Now, what don't you mean by energy or

227
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:51.279
even frequency. When you're referring to
your life's path, what do you mean

228
00:18:51.279 --> 00:18:55.359
by that? Because you've mentioned so
Yeah, as I mentioned before, I

229
00:18:55.400 --> 00:18:57.440
came from the tech space, the
computer space, and you know when a

230
00:18:57.480 --> 00:19:03.799
long time ago I worked on radio
and television and telephone, so that type

231
00:19:03.839 --> 00:19:10.839
of technologies and offend radio, AM
radio, off M radio is frequency modulation.

232
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:14.039
And so I really think about energy
like a radio station. You know,

233
00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:18.759
are you at eighty five point seven
ninety two point one? Okay,

234
00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:22.480
you know ninety five point four ninety
nine, you know one oh two?

235
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:26.119
Where are you most of the time? And if you want to create more

236
00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:33.079
opportunities for yourself or more levels of
engagement, how do you is the energy

237
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:36.880
you're at working or do you have
to raise your energy to get into different

238
00:19:36.960 --> 00:19:40.839
rooms and different conversations? And so
how do you do that? And that

239
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:44.039
really goes back to what are you
watching? What are you reading? What

240
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:47.200
are you talking about? What are
you saying to yourself? Because what I

241
00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:49.759
had to do is I had to
move from being more of a practicing polluter

242
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:53.519
of oh gosh, the coffee machine
is empty, or can you believe that

243
00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:56.720
person didn't call me back? Or
can you believe I was on hold for

244
00:19:56.759 --> 00:20:00.880
an hour or I was supposed to
fly home yesterday and get home today,

245
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:04.200
and all those people are idiots,
like where are you on the spectrum?

246
00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:10.559
And like how do you not let
the outside world impact your energy? And

247
00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:17.440
that's been a real journey for me, is to not let the outside world

248
00:20:17.599 --> 00:20:23.400
impact what radio station I am resonating
at. And that's been a really interesting

249
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:32.400
experience and beneficial experience because I prefer
to be at a higher frequency because I

250
00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:36.920
get some really cool opportunities and conversations
like this, and I get to do

251
00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:41.920
some really awesome work, but I
was not getting access to when I was

252
00:20:41.960 --> 00:20:48.680
at a lower radio station, right
right, Wow, So can you also,

253
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:51.680
you know, help yourself, Like
you were saying, what are you

254
00:20:51.839 --> 00:20:53.839
looking at? What? You know? What are some of the things that

255
00:20:55.640 --> 00:21:00.200
I would imagine, the people that
you're surrounding yourself with in different things like

256
00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:04.200
that. So I guess it would
help too sometimes when you just kind of

257
00:21:04.240 --> 00:21:07.960
get away from it all and just
you know, say hey, I'm just

258
00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:14.200
gonna shut down for the day,
no cell phone, no computer, no

259
00:21:14.400 --> 00:21:18.880
people, no anything. I mean, doesn't that doing something like that wouldn't

260
00:21:18.920 --> 00:21:22.440
that help? Maybe the kind of
it re energize you, Like you said,

261
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:26.599
bring that frequency back up or yeah, if you have things that like

262
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:30.240
I yes, so, yes you
could. I don't have that luxury as

263
00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:33.519
much as I'd like to be quite
honest, you know, I have a

264
00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:37.400
thriving business that I don't. You
know, I have to do every day

265
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:41.359
right, so I can't just shut
down, And if I did, I

266
00:21:41.359 --> 00:21:45.559
don't know if I'd have the mental
peace. But what I can do is,

267
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:48.599
you know, before nine am,
or really before eight thirty, I

268
00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:52.599
have to do something outside or I
have to go to a class, or

269
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:55.720
I have to do something because I
know that I will be a better worker

270
00:21:55.839 --> 00:21:59.519
if I break a sweat. I
just know that about myself. So like

271
00:21:59.599 --> 00:22:04.279
that is part of my day most
days. And I definitely when I go

272
00:22:04.279 --> 00:22:08.240
to bed at night, I'm listening
to motivational things. I'm watching YouTube videos,

273
00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:12.039
I'm listening to books on Audible.
So I have bookends in my day

274
00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:17.200
that I really feel like help me
start and end the day on a really

275
00:22:17.359 --> 00:22:22.160
high energy. Absolutely, and you
and I seems like we have basically the

276
00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:26.160
same routine because that's the way I
am. The first thing in the morning,

277
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:30.000
my beginning my day. I have
an exercise class that I go to

278
00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:34.119
and like you said, it's like
that's my me time, you know,

279
00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:38.519
where I can go and let off
that energy and you know, release and

280
00:22:38.599 --> 00:22:42.319
different things like that. And again, like you said, before I go

281
00:22:42.400 --> 00:22:47.599
to bed, I don't put any
negative energy in me, Like I don't

282
00:22:47.640 --> 00:22:52.440
watch anything on TV that I know
that's gonna have me. You know,

283
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:55.960
sometimes you watch this stuff or you
listen to this stuff, and you lay

284
00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:59.519
down and go to bed and your
mind is churning with all that stuff in

285
00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:03.279
there. And so I'm like you, I don't like to have that kind

286
00:23:03.359 --> 00:23:07.240
of stuff, you know, in
my head. When I get ready to

287
00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:11.000
go to bed, I like something
that's soothing, you know. I listen

288
00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:15.000
to different types of music or and
if I do watch something, it's gonna

289
00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:19.720
be something maybe that makes me laugh
or you know that's that's funny and something

290
00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:25.279
that I can enjoy because it gives
you a piece in your you know,

291
00:23:25.599 --> 00:23:27.680
like you said, in your mind
before you actually go to bed or what

292
00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:33.160
have you. Because I, yeah, that, wow, that is so

293
00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:41.400
interesting how our I guess our brains
can adjust to different things and how it

294
00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:47.799
soaks in different things too, because
when you say about the mindfulness, when

295
00:23:47.799 --> 00:23:52.720
you think about it, it's really
making sure that your mind is well and

296
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:56.440
that you're feeding at the right things. That that's what it sounds like almost

297
00:23:56.559 --> 00:24:00.039
that you you you really want to
make sure that it's you know, you're

298
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:04.200
getting the right stuff in there that
will keep you balanced, keep you at

299
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:08.720
peace, keep you like you said, you can't you know, for you,

300
00:24:08.839 --> 00:24:12.319
shutting down a whole day is just
not in the cards. So you

301
00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:17.519
have to do other things to make
sure that you're getting through the day without

302
00:24:17.559 --> 00:24:22.640
all that stuff in your head.
Wow, that's true. And a lot

303
00:24:22.640 --> 00:24:26.000
of people say, well, a
lot of this significant other and he or

304
00:24:26.119 --> 00:24:30.480
she does this to me. I
just want to say, like, nobody

305
00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:33.559
really does anything to you. The
reality is is that is the energy that

306
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:38.240
you're attracting right now, and if
you work to raise your energy. Yeah,

307
00:24:38.920 --> 00:24:42.599
those people often just float away,
as sad as it may be.

308
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:47.680
You know, when I moved from
where I was to where I am now,

309
00:24:47.759 --> 00:24:52.000
like some relationships, yes, it
just kind of disappeared. Some had

310
00:24:52.160 --> 00:25:00.400
abrupt endings unexpectedly, but I know
now that they weren't for my highest good.

311
00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:03.680
And when I was writing, yeah, when I was writing this third

312
00:25:03.680 --> 00:25:07.440
book, Seeking, I had a
conversation with my close friends and I said,

313
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:12.480
you know, I'm writing this book
and it's a really high frequency book,

314
00:25:12.599 --> 00:25:17.920
and I have to stay in a
zone. So when we chat or

315
00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:22.960
whatever, I'm not going to be
able to like dissect the neighborhood whatever,

316
00:25:22.279 --> 00:25:26.920
or talk about whatever that might not
be high frequency. I'll be like,

317
00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:29.880
you know, on the weekends or
whatever, I'll call you, gonna have

318
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:32.519
twenty minutes or talk about whatever.
But like if we talked her in the

319
00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:34.519
week, I'm just going to have
to keep it really high because I'm writing

320
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:40.079
every day and I just don't want
to spend another hour trying to get back

321
00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:44.519
to a different energy frequency. So
I just told my friends and family and

322
00:25:45.400 --> 00:25:47.839
they were pretty cool about it.
They think it's funny. They're like,

323
00:25:47.880 --> 00:25:49.559
what frequency are you in now?
You know, They kind of make a

324
00:25:49.640 --> 00:25:52.839
joke of it. But the reality
is is like I had to almost verbalize

325
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:59.960
it when I was writing this third
book because it was such a beautiful process

326
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:02.920
in a lot of ways, it
was an intense process of just information that

327
00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:07.480
was just coming out on these pages, and I just really had to be

328
00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:11.839
mindful of my energy, especially towards
the end when it was all really coming

329
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:17.519
together, like I could not get
myself caught up in nonsense. Absolutely,

330
00:26:17.839 --> 00:26:22.720
And I remember thinking as you were
talking and when I was younger, and

331
00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:26.359
like you were saying about relationships,
they just kind of fade away. But

332
00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:33.640
I remember thinking one day, after
a relationship I had been in, I

333
00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:37.440
thought to myself, you know,
something has got to change, because if

334
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:41.920
there's an idiot within a fifty mile
radius, they will attach themselves to me.

335
00:26:41.599 --> 00:26:47.599
And it has to be something that
I'm attracting that's causing this. So

336
00:26:47.880 --> 00:26:51.319
I had, Yeah, you know, so I understand what you mean about

337
00:26:51.759 --> 00:26:56.400
having the change the way you kind
of do things too, so that you

338
00:26:56.440 --> 00:27:00.200
can attract something different. And you
know, some of those things that,

339
00:27:00.359 --> 00:27:03.440
like you say, you just kind
of start fading away. They don't you

340
00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:07.480
know, I don't get that.
I don't have that problem anymore, you

341
00:27:07.559 --> 00:27:11.759
know, So just I fout that
so funny, And I actually, like

342
00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:15.920
I said, I literally sat down
and thought that and I had to,

343
00:27:15.480 --> 00:27:18.880
you know, I had to laugh
at it because I thought, yeah,

344
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:22.880
you're gonna have to change something.
Yeah. Wow, And it's probably so

345
00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:26.519
helpful for the work you do now
because you can really empathize with people when

346
00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:32.799
they're different parts of their life and
what they're going through because you know,

347
00:27:32.880 --> 00:27:36.519
I and all the work that I'm
doing, like so many things that come

348
00:27:36.599 --> 00:27:41.279
your way, are to learn something, to expand your sphere of knowing.

349
00:27:41.960 --> 00:27:45.519
You know, and even sometimes we
don't even realize it, it really might

350
00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:49.160
give us like the stepping stone to
the next thing. And So if you're

351
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:52.720
in a situation right now where you're
like, I don't know why this is

352
00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:56.839
happening to me, I can't believe
this, maybe just say what am I

353
00:27:56.839 --> 00:28:00.400
supposed to learn from this? What
am I supposed to learn from this situation?

354
00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:04.079
Because you want to move through that
lesson, especially if it's a yucky

355
00:28:04.119 --> 00:28:08.920
one as fast as possible. Yeah, Yeah, it's a learn it's actually

356
00:28:08.920 --> 00:28:14.759
a learning experience it. You know, you can learn something from it if

357
00:28:14.759 --> 00:28:18.680
you let yourself, you can learn
something from it. Wow. So how

358
00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:23.480
do you handle self doubt? Now? You know with this new insight and

359
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:29.720
awareness that you have, especially about
the mindfulness part. Well, I have

360
00:28:29.799 --> 00:28:33.079
self doubt just like the rest of
us all the time, like it's always

361
00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:37.720
there, But now I sort of
follow what Jensen Sarah says in her book.

362
00:28:37.720 --> 00:28:41.000
You're a badass, she says,
let me just see what I can

363
00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:44.319
do. Let me see, because
if I'm just seeing, I'm not putting

364
00:28:44.359 --> 00:28:47.640
all these expectations on how it has
to look or what it needs to be.

365
00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:49.960
But I'm just checking it out.
And I really love that advice because

366
00:28:49.960 --> 00:28:53.200
it gives me permission to lean into
things. I have no idea what I'm

367
00:28:53.200 --> 00:28:56.480
doing. You know, I'm going
to start helping more women get published.

368
00:28:56.519 --> 00:29:00.000
And even though I publish through my
own books, I'm putting all the pieces

369
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:04.759
together. And the self doubt around
that is obviously high, but you know

370
00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:07.519
what I've done it. I have
all the connections, I have all the

371
00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:11.160
back office, Like, yes,
I'm going to learn, but you know

372
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:15.279
what, I'm going to help more
women get published. And to me,

373
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:22.160
that's a bigger why than anything that
could possibly go wrong. Absolutely. Wow.

374
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:29.599
So besides being a successful business woman
and award winning book writer, you're

375
00:29:29.680 --> 00:29:37.559
also a light worker. So ullus, what does that mean? Oh gosh,

376
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:41.319
Well, I've been on this healing
journey essentially, and we all can

377
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.680
heal a story, an experience,
a situation. Most of us have something

378
00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:49.160
they have to work through, and
I would say, through that I've learned

379
00:29:49.160 --> 00:29:53.759
a lot about myself, about my
connection, about my ability to channel information

380
00:29:55.200 --> 00:30:00.759
and even just create a path for
myself that often inspires others on their path.

381
00:30:00.200 --> 00:30:03.680
And I think for many of us, when we work through digging those

382
00:30:03.720 --> 00:30:07.319
stories, when we work from digging
out at the darkness, it illuminates us

383
00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:15.799
and illuminates others. Now, your
book Seeking that you wrote, this is

384
00:30:17.000 --> 00:30:21.240
about your journey. Tell us a
little bit more about your books seeking.

385
00:30:21.960 --> 00:30:25.960
Yeah, so Sinking Seeking is very
much about my journey, and it's a

386
00:30:26.000 --> 00:30:27.799
lot of stuff that I did off
the side of my desk. So you'll

387
00:30:27.799 --> 00:30:30.480
see a stack of books off the
side of my desk. It's things that

388
00:30:30.599 --> 00:30:36.160
I did because I felt inspired to
learn more about myself. And when I

389
00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:38.640
was writing the book, I really
talked about the relationship with my mother,

390
00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:45.759
my challenges with perfectionism, how money
had driven so many of my decisions,

391
00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:48.240
and the energy I've been giving money
for decades, and how I had it

392
00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:52.359
to shift that. So the appendance
of the book is quite dense because I

393
00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:56.960
share not only all the books I
read, the webinars I've attended, but

394
00:30:57.079 --> 00:31:02.960
all the energy healers I've gone too, and I've extended that into a community

395
00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:06.920
so that people can really work through
things that are no longer serving them.

396
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:11.559
And I feel like Seeking for many
people has been that book that has helped

397
00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:18.920
them lean into what is calling them. So tell us what's next on the

398
00:31:18.920 --> 00:31:22.759
horizon, anything coming up that you
want to share with us and let us

399
00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:30.359
know about. Well, definitely helping
more healers, energy practitioners, like really

400
00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:36.000
great energy people getting their work published
because I think we need more of that

401
00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:38.839
in the world. So that's definitely
on the horizon. But also I'm working

402
00:31:38.920 --> 00:31:42.799
on I've been doing retreats for about
fourteen retreats I've already done, and I've

403
00:31:44.119 --> 00:31:47.880
been gifted this beautiful retreat place on
Lake Erie, and so I'm going to

404
00:31:47.880 --> 00:31:51.519
be starting to put more programming together
for people to come to the water,

405
00:31:51.839 --> 00:31:56.000
work with energy practitioners, put their
feet in Mother Natures, maybe sit in

406
00:31:56.039 --> 00:32:00.720
a drumming circle, or sit through
a bio hacking circle. Just really giving

407
00:32:01.000 --> 00:32:06.279
people access to more things to help
them shift the energy that's no longer serving

408
00:32:06.319 --> 00:32:12.519
them. And isn't that great.
I did a retreat earlier in the year

409
00:32:13.119 --> 00:32:15.799
where we went we were on a
lake, rented a house on a lake,

410
00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:22.880
and some the ladies went and it
was just amazing, you know,

411
00:32:22.000 --> 00:32:27.680
the energy that was there in that
group. And you know how some of

412
00:32:27.680 --> 00:32:30.839
the ladies that they really really needed
that, you know, just to be

413
00:32:30.880 --> 00:32:36.599
able to get away for a little
while and kind of rejuvenate themselves, you

414
00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:39.920
know, replenished, like they filled
their own cups first, you know,

415
00:32:40.440 --> 00:32:45.319
before they can take on the world
and take and help anybody else, kind

416
00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:51.839
of help themselves first to get back
into the swing of things. So that's

417
00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:57.680
retreats. I just love them.
I think they're fantastic thing to do.

418
00:32:57.880 --> 00:33:05.079
Yeah, So tell us if you
had one piece of advice that you would

419
00:33:05.160 --> 00:33:12.319
lead with our viewers and our listeners, what would that advice be. Now,

420
00:33:12.400 --> 00:33:15.880
there are very few accidents, very
few, you know, most things

421
00:33:15.920 --> 00:33:20.880
that cross your path are here to
serve you in some way. And I

422
00:33:20.960 --> 00:33:24.640
feel like you just have to be
in the present moment to see, be

423
00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:29.680
aware, listen to what is coming
to you. Most of my messages come

424
00:33:29.720 --> 00:33:32.359
through other people. If I hear
things two or three times, I'm like,

425
00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:36.400
oh, okay, I probably should
lean into that. So I think

426
00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:38.839
that, you know, my whole
goal in my life is to be in

427
00:33:38.839 --> 00:33:43.559
the present moment. As often as
possible. Mindfulness has definitely helped me do

428
00:33:43.680 --> 00:33:46.240
that, but it has given me
the joy that I was seeking, and

429
00:33:46.359 --> 00:33:53.279
also the just the experience that we're
having here every moment. And if you're

430
00:33:53.319 --> 00:33:58.480
still listening to us, there's more
in life for you. It's really about

431
00:33:58.480 --> 00:34:02.519
you just kind of away the stuff
that is no longer serving you so that

432
00:34:02.599 --> 00:34:08.400
you can really be in a place
to shine. Absolutely. Now, you

433
00:34:08.559 --> 00:34:15.159
mentioned wanting also wanting to help others
to get their work published, you know,

434
00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:20.039
so do you are you? Do
you have your own publishing company now?

435
00:34:20.280 --> 00:34:23.280
Or is this just coaching that you
will do to help them to get

436
00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:29.760
you know, get through that some
people have takes a really long time,

437
00:34:29.920 --> 00:34:32.320
or they don't know where to start
or you know, how to get started

438
00:34:32.360 --> 00:34:37.840
even to to start to write and
to publish anything. So is it you,

439
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:42.800
uh, literally publishing for them?
Are you coaching them through how to

440
00:34:42.840 --> 00:34:49.079
get through that process? Either or
honestly I have options for both and whatever

441
00:34:49.280 --> 00:34:52.599
they seem to need. I think
people that have quite a bit of stuff

442
00:34:52.639 --> 00:34:55.719
written already is probably where I'm going
to start. Is people that I have

443
00:34:55.880 --> 00:35:00.800
sitting on manuscripts or close to finished
manuscripts that are looking not only how to

444
00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:05.599
get published, but how to get
noticed, because unfortunately, writing a book

445
00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:08.360
is a ton of work, but
marketing it is often harder. And not

446
00:35:08.519 --> 00:35:12.719
knowing where to start or what to
do and things that you need to do

447
00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:15.360
six months before you publish, six
weeks, six days, and then six

448
00:35:15.400 --> 00:35:20.840
months after is so critical and I
wish I had that when I published my

449
00:35:20.920 --> 00:35:23.159
first book, and now that I
have all the people and the resources,

450
00:35:23.199 --> 00:35:27.719
I'm looking forward to sharing these with
more people so that they can really use

451
00:35:27.760 --> 00:35:30.719
their book as a launching pad for
where they want to have more influence and

452
00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:37.000
impact. Absolutely, that's fantastic.
Well, tell us how can our viewers

453
00:35:37.039 --> 00:35:42.280
and listeners get in touch with you
if they want more information about what you

454
00:35:42.400 --> 00:35:45.920
do, also about the publishing getting
their book published. How can they reach

455
00:35:45.960 --> 00:35:49.960
out to you? I think the
best way. I mean, obviously,

456
00:35:50.000 --> 00:35:52.519
I have a website in social media
under my name JJD Geronimo, but I'm

457
00:35:52.519 --> 00:35:55.079
a back to the LinkedIn user,
as you will see if you check out

458
00:35:55.079 --> 00:35:58.760
my profile, so that's a great
way. I'm on there multiple times a

459
00:35:58.840 --> 00:36:02.280
day, but you can access me
just about every which way. So using

460
00:36:02.320 --> 00:36:07.039
Google to find me, you can
find your best favorite platform. Wow.

461
00:36:07.400 --> 00:36:10.119
Well, JJ, thank you so
much for coming on the show and sharing

462
00:36:10.280 --> 00:36:15.920
the great nuggets that you shared with
us. We really appreciate having you.

463
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:20.719
And if there's anything else that you
would like to let our audience know before

464
00:36:21.639 --> 00:36:25.760
we go to any the upcoming events
that I have coming up, you feel

465
00:36:25.800 --> 00:36:31.199
free to do so. If not, then we'll just thank you again for

466
00:36:31.559 --> 00:36:35.679
being here. So if there's anything
else that you want to share with us,

467
00:36:35.719 --> 00:36:37.320
feel free to do so. Well. I just want to thank you

468
00:36:37.360 --> 00:36:42.079
for your work and what you do
for so many women, because I feel

469
00:36:42.119 --> 00:36:45.800
like women really have a struggle doing
it alone and they often need people that

470
00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:49.559
are going to push them along,
help understand their obstacles and even connect them

471
00:36:49.559 --> 00:36:52.960
with more women. And I think
you do that fabulously. And I would

472
00:36:52.960 --> 00:36:55.920
just say thank you for the work
you're doing well, Thank you so much,

473
00:36:57.039 --> 00:37:00.800
Appreciate you again, Appreciate you taking
time of your schedule to be here

474
00:37:00.880 --> 00:37:07.159
with us to share. Thank you
so much. And now I'll just let

475
00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:13.440
everyone know about upcoming events that I
will be having. Again, make sure
