Transcripts

Unknown:

hello hello and welcome to the borealis experience i'm

Unknown:

your host aurora and i hope you're doing well i hope

Unknown:

everything is fine and if not spoil yourself to a little bit

Unknown:

of relaxation reset focusing on yourself with me here today i'm

Unknown:

so grateful to have you here i'm so grateful yeah to share some

Unknown:

time with you here so maybe sit down on a couch

Unknown:

or

Unknown:

go for a walk or whatever is good for you now in the next 15

Unknown:

minutes if you're driving or operating machinery please be

Unknown:

careful or listen to my podcast afterwards and if you are on any

Unknown:

medication be it for physical health or mental health please

Unknown:

talk to your practitioner and before you make any changes i'm

Unknown:

here to guide you but i'm not a healer i'm not replacing

Unknown:

traditional medicine thank you today i want to talk about

Unknown:

approval and how can we receive approval

Unknown:

from people

Unknown:

i'm sure you have people in your life

Unknown:

that

Unknown:

are loyal cheerleaders and understand you and see you and

Unknown:

whatever you approach or do ideas you have there are happy

Unknown:

for you and want you to succeed maybe you have a couple of those

Unknown:

friends or family members or maybe you have just one or two

Unknown:

and maybe have absolutely none but i'm sure we all have that

Unknown:

person in our life that understands us and wants our

Unknown:

success and best interest but what if we seek approval from

Unknown:

people that don't approve of what we're doing and of who we

Unknown:

are and of where we want to be in the future that's a very

Unknown:

tricky place to be and if you are only surrounded by those

Unknown:

people then you can pretty much see how negatively it affects

Unknown:

your mental health and maybe even your physical health

Unknown:

already your emotional health for sure the thing is we can

Unknown:

change people we can slightly influence people but if they're

Unknown:

not ready and willing to give us approval of us or of what we

Unknown:

want to do then it is a very tough pill to swallow because

Unknown:

there's nothing really you can do the only thing you can change

Unknown:

is yourself and today i want to show you how how can you be more

Unknown:

at peace with people who don't want to give you the approval

Unknown:

that you need so much to succeed first of all i want to tell you

Unknown:

you don't need these people to succeed you only need the people

Unknown:

who encourage you on your path who inspire you and who have the

Unknown:

skills and maybe the tool said to bring you further in that

Unknown:

direction you want to go the other people are maybe not there

Unknown:

yet or they don't understand you they don't get you they don't

Unknown:

understand why you're doing what you're doing and for them it's

Unknown:

also a place of power to be in because if they can sense that

Unknown:

you need the approval of them to succeed there's people out there

Unknown:

who will take advantage of them and even relish in that position

Unknown:

because you give them so much power Is that fair to yourself?

Unknown:

Is that okay? To be so dependent on someone else's approval? I

Unknown:

want to clarify too, that I'm talking about your career, your

Unknown:

romantic relationships? Do your people approve of your partner?

Unknown:

Do your people approve of the career you want to take? I'm not

Unknown:

talking about self destructive behavior, where people who love

Unknown:

you would, of course not support you to engage in those

Unknown:

activities. I'm talking about. I'm going to give you an

Unknown:

example. that's easiest. So last night, I decided to host a life

Unknown:

show on Facebook today. So yesterday, I talked to my

Unknown:

grandma, and I tried to explain to her What a podcast is and

Unknown:

what I'm doing, because for the last couple of weeks, she saw

Unknown:

that I'm often on my laptop and very busy doing stuff. But she

Unknown:

didn't really, yeah, ask questions. And I also didn't

Unknown:

have the energy to explain to her what I was doing, because I

Unknown:

knew what her answer was going to be. But yesterday, I decided

Unknown:

to be open and to share with her what I'm doing,

Unknown:

and to share with her what her life show is on Facebook. And

Unknown:

the response that I received didn't surprise me at all. She

Unknown:

said, What makes you think that you have something to say that

Unknown:

other people need out there? And that other people don't know

Unknown:

yet? You never studied? Anything in that field? You studied

Unknown:

physiotherapy and agriculture? So what the heck are you

Unknown:

actually doing there. And in that moment, I was able to fly

Unknown:

into birds perspective and to see what was going on in my

Unknown:

brain. To see how I would have reacted in the past, very

Unknown:

defensive, and then being alone at night, I would have had like

Unknown:

crippling self doubt, and really shitty feelings coming up. But

Unknown:

in that moment, I decided, Oh, she is not ready to support me,

Unknown:

she doesn't understand what I'm doing there. And she also

Unknown:

doesn't really know who I am on a deeper level. And this is my

Unknown:

fault. I don't share certain things with her because she

Unknown:

speaks French and French is my third language. And it's more

Unknown:

difficult for me to express myself and that language. And

Unknown:

I'm maybe a little bit lazy there. And she doesn't know how

Unknown:

passionate I am about self improvement and meditation and

Unknown:

helping others to grow and to lift others up this generation.

Unknown:

She grew up and was focused on survival, and supporting the

Unknown:

neighbor with baked goods, and shelter, and many, many more

Unknown:

things. But podcasting was definitely not. So in that

Unknown:

moment, I was able to not react like I would have in the past

Unknown:

and to just be okay and to trust that she can support me in other

Unknown:

ways. She can listen to me talk about the chickens and the dogs

Unknown:

and she can cook lunch for me and I can give her foot massage,

Unknown:

and we can be there for each other on a different level. But

Unknown:

I don't seek that approval from her anymore. When it comes to my

Unknown:

job. Because she is

Unknown:

my

Unknown:

relative because she's close to me. That kind of pressure I

Unknown:

don't put on her anymore And ever since our relationship is

Unknown:

very good. I don't have that resentment against her anymore.

Unknown:

And I keep doing what I think is best for my listeners and for my

Unknown:

path here. And it is all good. And I know there's more people

Unknown:

out there who cheer for me than people out there who want to

Unknown:

bring me down or not

Unknown:

support

Unknown:

support me. So it is all okay. So when we talk about

Unknown:

resilience, I also want to talk about that approval thing

Unknown:

because I feel a lot of people don't come out of your other

Unknown:

closet because they feel they'd be alone then and rejected and

Unknown:

yeah there might be people who reject you and push you away but

Unknown:

only because they are not there yet and they don't understand

Unknown:

you and they only operate from their perspective and have not

Unknown:

the ability to be emotionally intelligent enough to see what

Unknown:

is going inside going inside of you but there's so many people

Unknown:

out there that feel the same and that want to do the same as you

Unknown:

and are just as scared as you and if you decide not to come

Unknown:

out and not to be brave and follow your path then you

Unknown:

basically let down these other people too because if you were

Unknown:

to go out you would show them that it is possible and then

Unknown:

it's scary what you do it anyways so it is a very brave

Unknown:

courageous thing to do but you can't force people to approve of

Unknown:

you you can just be very honest with yourself and continue on

Unknown:

your path and in doing so inspiring other people to and

Unknown:

maybe take a little bit of fear out of their situation so this

Unknown:

was about approval receiving approval from someone who

Unknown:

doesn't want to give it to you you put them in a position of

Unknown:

power that they don't necessarily need and you put

Unknown:

yourself in a kind of victim position and small position

Unknown:

where you don't necessarily belong so step out there and be

Unknown:

brave and show who you are and there will be enough people

Unknown:

receiving you and your idea that he can

Unknown:

you can do it i believe you can and people who don't want to

Unknown:

give us the approval are not necessarily evil just see them

Unknown:

as people who are challenging you and testing you it's like a

Unknown:

test

Unknown:

as if it was to ask you do you really want that how badly how

Unknown:

desperately do you want to go down that road how desperately

Unknown:

do you love that person but you know your parents are not going

Unknown:

to improve her desperately do you want that job but you know

Unknown:

your people will feel let down because it is not what the

Unknown:

family was doing in previous generations and if you do it

Unknown:

with a genuine heart if you do it with an honest honest like

Unknown:

mind and attitude and out of a pure intention then they will

Unknown:

eventually come around and look at you and be proud of you

Unknown:

because maybe then they will see how hard it was for you and they

Unknown:

will be proud of you and they will see that other people are

Unknown:

cheering for you and maybe feel a little bad that they didn't

Unknown:

cheer for you at the beginning but it's okay you can forgive

Unknown:

that and if they don't want to be there for you if they don't

Unknown:

approve of what you're doing then it is okay to because you

Unknown:

have to look for the people who support you who inspire you and

Unknown:

the other people you can keep close and connect on different

Unknown:

levels thank you so much for listening to this episode today

Unknown:

i hope i can make you feel more empowered with the ideas you

Unknown:

want to do the fear you might have to face to feel alone no

Unknown:

wit and fear rejected it is so worth it if you intend to do

Unknown:

something that is serving others and comes from a place of

Unknown:

genuine love then go ahead don't hold back and start

Unknown:

brainstorming you were listening to the borealis experience i'm

Unknown:

your host aurora and i'm very happy to be serving you this way

Unknown:

i hope you are in a good place and if you're not then spoil

Unknown:

yourself to a couple of meditations here and i'm sure

Unknown:

they will make you feel better until next time alive
