Hi, everybody. Welcome back to the mindful you podcast.

Unknown:

I'm Alan Carroll, and I'm your host. And today

Unknown:

Jessa Carter

Unknown:

Jessa Carter has a very interesting journey into

Unknown:

mindfulness,

Unknown:

spent 10 years as a neurosurgeon,

Unknown:

and had so much pressure and you know, 6080 hours of work, not

Unknown:

much of a life other than being the doctor, and decided I have

Unknown:

to, I have to break the pattern, I have to do something. Because

Unknown:

what I'm doing now is exhausting me physically, mentally and

Unknown:

emotionally.

Unknown:

And she had a, an experience, and call it a calling. And wish

Unknown:

she realized that her journey was going to be more in the

Unknown:

spiritual domain, and how to manifest wealth, how to support

Unknown:

people in having a divine divine wealth, using the power of the

Unknown:

mind in order to help facilitate and create those experiences for

Unknown:

people very much enjoyed talking with Jessica. And, and I'm

Unknown:

looking forward to having future conversations with her. Because

Unknown:

she's just a wealth of information, a wealth of wisdom,

Unknown:

and a lot of exciting things to share with us today. So please

Unknown:

welcome Jessica Carter, to the mindful you, podcast.

Unknown:

Hi, Jess, welcome to the mindful you podcast, I'm excited to have

Unknown:

the opportunity to meet you, and have you share your journey with

Unknown:

our audience, your background, what got you into the work that

Unknown:

you're doing to help bring consciousness into the world,

Unknown:

and some of the things that you've done and some of the

Unknown:

activities that you've done, but we'll start with a little bit of

Unknown:

your background. So go ahead and share with us a little bit of

Unknown:

what you're doing in the world.

Jessa Carter:

So the background for me is it's a bit unique. I

Jessa Carter:

started out in western medicine with a 10 year career and

Jessa Carter:

neurosurgery. So yes, I used to drill holes in people's heads,

Jessa Carter:

oh.

Unknown:

And so I very lightheartedly say that I now do

Unknown:

mind surgery, no scalpels or anesthesia required. That's

Unknown:

sweet. That's sweet.

Unknown:

And so on my journey when I first started on a path of

Unknown:

growth, personal professional spiritual growth, I had been

Unknown:

working in neurosurgery at that time, I was six years in I had

Unknown:

been working 60 to 80 hours a week and

Unknown:

had no life outside of work. Outside Looking In, everything

Unknown:

would have looked really, you know, remarkable beautiful

Unknown:

townhome luxury car in the driveway, you know, prestigious

Unknown:

letters behind my name and a prestigious career. And, you

Unknown:

know, what was going on behind the scenes was I had lost a

Unknown:

significant other and,

Unknown:

and my finances were in the dump. And so here I was, you

Unknown:

know, a young, bright professional living, you know,

Unknown:

with a prestigious job and six figure salary, living paycheck

Unknown:

to paycheck. And

Unknown:

so I reached a breaking point, as anyone does when you're

Unknown:

burning the candle from both ends of the sticks for for that

Unknown:

duration of time. And I woke up one day, and I said that there's

Unknown:

there's more to life than you know, than, than what you're

Unknown:

currently experiencing. And

Unknown:

and so what I what was interesting, though, was when I

Unknown:

first started on my journey, and what I was first seeking was

Unknown:

greater wealth and greater success because I always thought

Unknown:

that I always thought that more money was was the answer. And

Unknown:

and I had an I created an opportunity to do that. So I

Unknown:

made a transition in medicine and I started doing contract

Unknown:

work.

Unknown:

And, and that led to a significant increase in my

Unknown:

salary. It also led to a decrease in the amount of time

Unknown:

that I was working. So I went from those 60 to 80 hour work.

Unknown:

weeks to only working 14 days a month, which is pretty awesome.

Unknown:

I had two weeks off every single month. And I was making about

Unknown:

twice the pay. And in a short time in I found myself living

Unknown:

paycheck to paycheck again. And that's when I knew that

Unknown:

something was wrong.

Unknown:

And clearly the answer was not more money. And so I started

Unknown:

focusing on abundance in my yoga practice. And that led me to an

Unknown:

event called the called the Millionaire Mind intensive,

Unknown:

which doesn't even doesn't even exist anymore. But

Unknown:

that it was at that event, when I received the guidance, that

Unknown:

clear calling that clear guidance of Jesse, you're

Unknown:

supposed to be on that stage.

Unknown:

And I said yes to the call, not knowing really where that was

Unknown:

going to take me.

Unknown:

And as my journey continued to unfold,

Unknown:

what I was guided to support people in their journey on was

Unknown:

that same piece that it was for me.

Unknown:

I was seeking greater wealth and success. And what I received was

Unknown:

so much more than that. And so my my first book is called The

Unknown:

peaceful millionaire,

Unknown:

mind money and soul wisdom. And I'll be writing the peaceful

Unknown:

multimillionaire this year and the peaceful billionaire in the

Unknown:

coming years. And so, in, in the consciousness space, I'm

Unknown:

certified as a Theta Healing practitioner, I have seven

Unknown:

certifications, and really just dove into the neuroscience of

Unknown:

not only consciousness, but really wealth and success. And

Unknown:

so my work is in divine wealth, and

Unknown:

I'm leading a revolution of freedom. And it is my mission to

Unknown:

make financial freedom the norm, and help a billion people

Unknown:

worldwide become financially free.

Unknown:

That sounds wonderful. Thank you for doing all those all those

Unknown:

things. You You mentioned a couple of words that I wanted to

Unknown:

clarify, because I'm not clear on them. One was seven levels of

Unknown:

Theta Healing.

Unknown:

Could you could you give me a snapshot of Theta Healing and,

Unknown:

and I want you to think about people who are listening to the

Unknown:

podcast, what they could do an exercise or something practical

Unknown:

that they could take away from our conversation that would help

Unknown:

them achieve that state that you're talking about?

Unknown:

Absolutely. So

Unknown:

theta theta healing utilizes a theta state, which is a theta

Unknown:

Brainwave. So it's a it's a, it's a deeply relaxed state. So

Unknown:

it is oftentimes what's considered a meditative state.

Unknown:

But there's a specific meditative process that you can

Unknown:

go go through to get into that beta state. Now, that's not

Unknown:

something that I can that I can teach and share on a podcast.

Unknown:

But one of the tools that, that I can share is to is a

Unknown:

mindfulness practice is to pause. And so I teach something

Unknown:

called the the concept of slowing down in order to speed

Unknown:

up. And one of the ways that you can create space and time within

Unknown:

your mind and within your day, and create these moments and

Unknown:

opportunities for you to slow down in order to speed up is to

Unknown:

pause. And so pause is just to take a pause to stay, take that

Unknown:

step back from from whatever's either happening physically in

Unknown:

your world, or whatever's happening mentally in your world

Unknown:

to pause and take a step back from that. And from a wealth

Unknown:

consciousness and prosperity, consciousness perspective, the

Unknown:

opportunity is to pause, close your eyes, take a deep breath,

Unknown:

and say to yourself, I breathe, therefore I prosper. I breathe,

Unknown:

therefore I prosper.

Unknown:

I breathe, therefore I prosper.

Unknown:

I breathe, therefore, I prosper.

Unknown:

I'm a big fan of pausing.

Unknown:

And the challenge that I have with pausing is unless you have

Unknown:

a thought,

Unknown:

inside your head,

Unknown:

in the middle of the chaos, to pause

Unknown:

pausing isn't going to happen. So how do you get yourself to be

Unknown:

a one

Unknown:

Make enough to tell yourself to pause. So you don't get seduced

Unknown:

by whatever that event is that's happening in front of you,

Unknown:

you're able to stand in stillness and silence and, and

Unknown:

groundedness and not be caught by the whirlwind of the thoughts

Unknown:

that are circling around that thing outside that's causing

Unknown:

issues.

Unknown:

Well, I think I think at some point, when you're when you're

Unknown:

in a, a, whether it's a an environment that feels chaotic,

Unknown:

or that mental space that feels chaotic, when you're really when

Unknown:

you're overthinking something like your, your body reaches a

Unknown:

point of awareness, like you automatically reach a point of

Unknown:

awareness.

Unknown:

And so what I used what I used to do when when my mind was much

Unknown:

more active, because you because over time, I've I've read

Unknown:

completely retrained and reprogrammed my brain to operate

Unknown:

in a very different way. But I'm definitely someone who used to

Unknown:

overthink everything, and was always in my headspace. And so

Unknown:

there's a couple of couple of different things that you can

Unknown:

do. So one is you have to create a pattern or up for yourself. So

Unknown:

if you're, if you at least get to that point of awareness of my

Unknown:

thoughts are spiraling. What I used to do to myself is, I would

Unknown:

say I would literally like speak to myself out loud, and I would

Unknown:

say, justice, stop,

Unknown:

stop,

Unknown:

trust, believe, let go and allow, trust, believe, let go

Unknown:

and allow. So wherever I was in the chaos, I would out loud,

Unknown:

speak to myself and tell myself to stop, to trust to let go and

Unknown:

allow.

Unknown:

One of the other things that you can do as a pattern interrupt is

Unknown:

if you say to yourself, stop, speak to yourself, use your own

Unknown:

name, justice, stop.

Unknown:

And the other thing you can do is say, get out of your head,

Unknown:

get into your heart, get out of your head, get into your heart,

Unknown:

and you actually put your hand on your head and move it to your

Unknown:

heart. So you'd speak to yourself, get out of your head,

Unknown:

get into your heart, get out of your head, get into your heart.

Unknown:

And what will happen is like, you'll you'll automatically like

Unknown:

shift,

Unknown:

you'll automatically shift. I like to give multiple options

Unknown:

for people. And you know, one, one of the other breaks is if

Unknown:

you can, like this, this is an example that specifically

Unknown:

happened to me when I was still working in medicine and doing

Unknown:

contract work, I had a contract that I had been working on for

Unknown:

months, that was gonna give me full time work for like the next

Unknown:

six months.

Unknown:

And at the last minute, I received a phone call that that

Unknown:

had fallen through.

Unknown:

And, you know, this was well before my

Unknown:

hitting my four minute by four minute mile and achieving

Unknown:

financial freedom for myself, this was well before that. So so

Unknown:

what that created, that phone call created, and knowing that

Unknown:

this, you know, solid source of income that I was supposed to

Unknown:

have for six months, just that I had been working on for months,

Unknown:

just went down the buy down the drain,

Unknown:

you know, that it's those types of moments that, that create

Unknown:

this visceral reaction of almost panic,

Unknown:

you know, and the the, oh, oh, crap moments of and what am I

Unknown:

going to do, right, and the fear takes over. And it becomes very

Unknown:

overwhelming. And I remember the moment, I remember the moment

Unknown:

very vividly. And, and I wanted to shut down. And, and I and all

Unknown:

I wanted to do was cry. Because at that moment, I was like I

Unknown:

don't know what I'm going to do.

Unknown:

And

Unknown:

what I said to myself, I gave myself a moment because it is

Unknown:

important to feel. So I gave myself a moment to feel and a

Unknown:

couple of minutes to cry. But at the same time, I'm also very

Unknown:

aware that crying is not going to fix anything.

Unknown:

And so I gave myself a moment to feel the emotion with the

Unknown:

knowing that the that just if I express the emotion that it

Unknown:

would that it would shift and that the emotion itself wasn't a

Unknown:

solution wasn't going to fix anything.

Unknown:

And then I just started saying to myself, everything happens

Unknown:

for a reason. And that reason is there to serve me, even if I

Unknown:

can't see it right now. Everything happens for a reason.

Unknown:

And that reason is there to serve me even if I can't see it

Unknown:

right now. And I kept repeating it and I kept repeating it and

Unknown:

kept repeating it and then all of a sudden, the thought popped

Unknown:

into my mind.

Unknown:

Well, what if?

Unknown:

What if instead of doing contract work because I had

Unknown:

recently gotten a per diem job in New York and was like

Unknown:

What if instead of traveling and continuing to do contract work?

Unknown:

What if I could find multiple per diem jobs here in New York,

Unknown:

that would give me It pays almost as much as contract work,

Unknown:

it would give me the ability to work as much or as little as I

Unknown:

wanted to. It also gives me full ability to control my schedule.

Unknown:

And so that what if I was like, Well, that could actually work?

Unknown:

And because I shifted in that moment, right, because I went to

Unknown:

everything happens for a reason that reason they're served me

Unknown:

even if I can't see it right now, when the answer came

Unknown:

with that idea with that, what if I immediately went online and

Unknown:

started looking for other per diem opportunities in New York?

Unknown:

And I found several

Unknown:

of which were literally posted within the past 24 to 48 hours.

Unknown:

Yep. I, what I hear you talking about is that you have you had

Unknown:

an experience. And the experience caused a lot of

Unknown:

stirring up of thoughts, survival thoughts, fear

Unknown:

thoughts. And what you did is you overrode it, with some

Unknown:

statements of confidence. And that calm down the stirring up

Unknown:

of the thoughts, which were getting in the way of action.

Unknown:

And then once the you've calmed down, you took the breath. And

Unknown:

then you said, Okay,

Unknown:

what am I going to do now? And so then you pursued something

Unknown:

and out of out of that empty space, I called the empty space

Unknown:

of you let go of the, the tension, I guess, another thing

Unknown:

opened up, another space opened up and so you're able to, you're

Unknown:

able to turn something that was a negative into Oh, that was

Unknown:

meant to be because I wouldn't have gotten that at this

Unknown:

happened. And so and what you got was something that was even

Unknown:

nicer and prettier and new. And, and, and that you you have that

Unknown:

now, is that what you're talking about?

Unknown:

Yeah, absolutely. The synchronicity right. So so one

Unknown:

of the you know, one of the other shifts is, you know, that

Unknown:

every every perceived obstacle

Unknown:

is an opportunity. So if you just shift your perspective,

Unknown:

from obstacle equals obstacle to obstacle equals opportunity,

Unknown:

what happens is, if your perception if your minds

Unknown:

definition of is obstacle equals obstacle, your subconscious mind

Unknown:

throws up a giant red stop sign, and it acts accordingly.

Unknown:

But when you what you're actually overriding in that

Unknown:

shift, when you say obstacle equals opportunity, when you say

Unknown:

everything happens for a reason, and that reason is there to

Unknown:

serve me even if I can't see it right now, what you're doing is

Unknown:

you're overriding your logical, conscious thinking mind, and

Unknown:

you're allowing the profound intelligence from your

Unknown:

subconscious mind to actually step in and support you. So

Unknown:

when, when you say obstacle equals opportunity, what happens

Unknown:

is now your subconscious mind actually steps in and start

Unknown:

searching for the opportunity. Or when you're saying to

Unknown:

yourself, everything happens for a reason that reasons there's

Unknown:

certainly even if I can't see it right now. So you're not that's

Unknown:

not talking to your conscious, logical thinking mind for a

Unknown:

solution that's actually tapping into your subconscious mind.

Unknown:

Where's where's my solution? Where's the opportunity? And

Unknown:

that's where the answers come from. The answers don't come

Unknown:

from here.

Unknown:

And to be able to go from here to here

Unknown:

is mindfulness. I would say, if you're in your head, that would

Unknown:

be I use the word you're disembodied. And when you're in

Unknown:

your body, your heart you're in, you're in, you're in you're,

Unknown:

you're in, embodied, and the thoughts that were causing the

Unknown:

aggravation have faded away, and now you're just

Unknown:

still

Unknown:

and your body and then then then the universe

Unknown:

opens up its arms and magic, magical things happen. That's

Unknown:

what I that's what I experienced on my side of the coin and I bet

Unknown:

it's the same for you too.

Unknown:

Yeah, well, it's kind of it's kind of like it's kind of like

Unknown:

pressing pause, you know, on the on the chatter on on the on the

Unknown:

mental chatter. It's like pressing pause like if you if

Unknown:

you just press pause on that long enough to to get quiet and

Unknown:

to to go within there's there's one of one of the principles in

Unknown:

the peaceful Millionaire is if you sit with a question long

Unknown:

enough, the answer will find you. If you sit with a question

Unknown:

long enough, the answer will find you so

Unknown:

Even even that statement of everything happens for a reason.

Unknown:

And that reason is there to serve you even if you can't see

Unknown:

it right now, it's similar to sitting with a question because

Unknown:

because your your mind is like, Well, where is it? Right? You

Unknown:

know, everything happens for a reason that reason is there to

Unknown:

serve me even if I can't see it right now, your subconscious

Unknown:

mind is searching for that reason. And, and you'll, you'll

Unknown:

receive answers. And so.

Unknown:

So that's where that's where most people

Unknown:

you know, kind of lose a lot of power. When it comes to the

Unknown:

power of the mind, I teach the mind as a $27 billion asset with

Unknown:

27 billion kilowatts of power. And, and when you understand how

Unknown:

valuable and powerful your mind is, and when you learn how to

Unknown:

use that, and leverage that value, and that power to your

Unknown:

benefit, you, you now automatically have this edge.

Unknown:

Yep, above everyone else. Yep. A resource that's not available to

Unknown:

other people definitely is something that I've experienced.

Unknown:

Before we complete, I'd like to ask you, so the audience has

Unknown:

been listening to you share, and they say, Wow, that's fantastic.

Unknown:

I'd like to know more about what Jess is doing, how can people

Unknown:

connect with you.

Unknown:

So the best way to connect with me, if you would love to just

Unknown:

spend some time with me, and and learn more and walk away with

Unknown:

some additional pearls of wisdom is I have a free training that

Unknown:

that I do. And it's an opportunity to spend some time

Unknown:

with me and learn a lot more.

Unknown:

And really get to know me and and walk away with some

Unknown:

incredible value and pearls of wisdom. And that that free

Unknown:

training is how to 10x your earning power and live the life

Unknown:

of your dreams without working hard or budgeting or saving. And

Unknown:

so that's just my gift to anyone who's listening that feels that

Unknown:
