Have you discovered your life purpose? What if your spirit guides have been showing it to you all along, but you didn’t know how to listen?

Most of us have been taught that our purpose is a singular mission—a specific job title or a grand achievement we must struggle to find. This belief creates immense pressure and a constant, nagging feeling that we’re not doing enough. It’s the reason so many of us feel lost.

But that entire belief system is flawed. The truth is, your purpose isn’t a destination you find ‘out there’. It’s an energy you’ve had inside you all along. Your spirit guides are constantly trying to lead you back to it, and in this episode, I’ll show you how to finally understand their language.

My goal is to help you stop searching for your purpose and start living it as a daily experience. I’ll guide you through a powerful 3-step method to:

  • Discover the secret compass your spirit guides use to lead you to your purpose.
  • Use the “Love vs. Fear Test” to clearly distinguish divine guidance from the noise of your ego.
  • Take spiritually aligned action—small, inspired steps that make your purpose come alive.

The endless, painful search for your purpose is over. You can live your purpose every single day. It’s not something you have to go out and get… it’s right here, right now. Press play and let me show you how.

discover your life purpose with guidance from your spirit guides

[00:00:00] The following podcast is a dear media production.

Hey there. Welcome to Dear Gabby. I'm your host Gabby Bernstein, and if you landed here, it is absolutely no accident. It means that you're ready to feel good and manifest a life beyond your wildest dreams. Let's get started.

Welcome back to Dear Gabby. Are you tired of endlessly searching for your life's purpose? Are you out there just asking the universe for guidance, but you feel like you're not getting anything? You're just getting silence. Today, we are going to talk about how to connect with your spirit guides to discover your true purpose.

Your spirit guides are the bridge between you and the wisdom of the universe, and when you open that connection and you start to pray and meditate and ask. You create space to receive clear direction and allow that purpose-driven, high purpose [00:01:00] direction to come through. This is how your purpose reveals itself, not as a job description, not as something you're supposed to do for your career, but as divine wisdom, the step-by-step divine wisdom, and the more you connect, the clearer and easier it becomes to walk your path with confidence.

Then I'm gonna answer some of the most important questions about purpose from overthinking it to recognizing the signs, to telling the difference between ego and divine guidance. And my intention is that by the end of this episode, you're gonna feel clear, you're gonna feel very calm, and you're gonna feel really ready to take the next small, joyful step towards that path of purpose.

So let's get started. What if your life's purpose has nothing to do with what you do for a living and consider this. What if your spirit guides have been showing it to you all along? Today we're talking about how your spirit guides are constantly leading you to your true purpose and how to finally understand their direction.

My goal for this episode is very [00:02:00] simple and it's very profound. It's to help you stop searching for your purpose as a destination and start living it as a daily experience. Most of us have been taught that our purpose is a singular mission, like it's a specific job title or this big achievement that we must struggle to figure out how to get to, and we believe that once we find this one thing, then we'll be happy and fulfilled.

This belief creates immense pressure and this constant feeling that we're not doing enough or worse of all, that we're not good enough. But that entire belief system is totally flawed. And the truth is, your purpose isn't a destination that you find. It's actually an energy that you align with. And here's the cool part.

Your spirit guides use a very simple, powerful emotion as their compass to guide you Joy. Your fear of getting it wrong and your focus on what you should do is what blocks that guidance. And now I'm gonna break [00:03:00] down how to tune into that divine compass and to help you on this journey. I have a really powerful meditation that's gonna help you lovingly connect the presence of your guides.

You can go to dear gabby.com/spirit guides, or listen for free at the link in the show notes. Now, let's get started. This first point is the most important reframe that I can possibly offer you. This is gonna change your life. Your purpose is not a what? It's not a job. It is not a role. Your life's purpose is actually a feeling and that feeling is joy.

This simplifies everything. I know it might sound too simple, but it's not. It's true. Your spirit guides are constantly trying to lead you toward joy, so your only job is to follow what feels good. When I started my career, I didn't actually set out to become a bestselling author and international speaker.

I just knew that talking about spiritual principles and is very down to earth, genuine, authentic, vulnerable way, brought me. Incredible joy, immense joy. So I rented a room in an accountant's office and held a small woman's group, [00:04:00] and then I started giving talks wherever I could. And sometimes for free, I would just give these talks.

And I just became so obsessed with sharing these truths. I was just following my joy, not for a business plan, for the sake of being in joy. And that joy was the energy of my purpose, and the universe rose up to meet me in that energetic alignment. The universe rose up to meet that energy with opportunities that I could never have orchestrated on my own.

And this idea changes the entire game. It takes all that pressure off. It just collapses that sort of desperate, thirsty need to search for that single thing. And it starts empowering you to find your purpose in your life just right here, right now. And when you make feeling good, your spiritual practice, you become a super attractor.

It's just the law. I remember hearing my teachers, Abraham Hicks say that your greatest manifestation is to feel joy, not to actually attract something that will bring you joy, but to actually feel the joy. And then when you feel the joy, everything you desire starts [00:05:00] to come into your life in ways that you could never have imagined.

And you align with the frequency of your purpose. When you're in that joy and the universe starts to bring you the what's, the jobs, the opportunities, the resources that match that joyful feeling. But what about when fear gets in the way? We have these moments when fear starts to take over. The good news is that your guides are always sending you loving, joyful nudges.

That voice of fear actually can block those nudges and the joyful guidance and the love of your guides. That's always trying to come through. And so this next step is about learning to tell the difference. The love versus fear test. When you're seeking guidance on purpose, two voices will emerge. The voice of your guides, which is always love, always feels high vibe, loving, open-hearted, directed, and then the voice of your ego, which always feels like fear.

It feels contracted, it feels controlling, and you need a reliable way to tell them apart. The voice of your guides is loving. [00:06:00] It's calm, it's expansive, it's empowering, whereas the voice of fear is very frantic, and it's critical and it's demanding. And a practice that I teach in my book, the Universe has your back, is to put your hand on your heart and your hand on your belly, and to take a deep breath and ask, is this thought or idea or choice, rooted in love or fear?

Your body's gonna give you the answer. Love feels open and peaceful. Fear feels contracted and tight. This matters because it's your discernment tool. Without it, you can start to feel led astray by fear and these impulses that are just disguising as intuition, but they're actually fear-based impulses that are pushing you to do something that may not be in your highest and best.

And so mastering this is what allows you to confidently follow the loving guidance that leads you to your purpose, and it also helps you start ignoring that fearful noise and it's going to block the detours. Because you're no longer listening to the noise. You're listening to your intuition. And so now you've aligned with joy and you're learning to distinguish love from [00:07:00] fear.

And the final step is to take action, but it can't be just any action. This has to be a divinely guided action. And this is what I call taking spiritually aligned action. This is a game changer. People. Okay, listen up. Once you receive that joyful nudge from your guides, the universe needs you to meet it with action.

This isn't about hustling or forcing, it's actually about taking small, inspired steps that actually feel really good to you, and a spiritually aligned action is the next right thing that feels joyful and expansive. And when I felt that joy of teaching when I started early days just teaching spiritual principles anywhere I could for free.

My aligned action wasn't to try to book a stadium tour. It was just to rent a small room and start a woman's circle. And so the small actions that come from that joyful place are spiritually aligned actions. So what is the smallest, most joyful step that you can take today [00:08:00] that feels good to you? Do that one thing.

What is that one thing that you can do that's joyful, that feels good in your body? And I want you to do that thing. And this is how you actually start to co-create your purpose with the universe. You receive the joyful guidance and you meet it with this spiritually aligned action. And this aligned action, this action that you take, it demonstrates your faith, and it tells the universe that you're ready for more.

You're saying to the universe, I want more of this, please. And it's this dance of receiving and action that makes your purpose come alive. So I want you to just take that in, see how you could take that step today to take a spiritually aligned action. And so let's wrap this up. The endless painful search for yours, purpose is completely over, guys.

It's over. You now have a new plan. You know that joy is your compass. You have the test to distinguish that love over fear, so you know if you're being guided or you're not. You know now how to take spiritually aligned action, and this is how you live your [00:09:00] purpose every single day. It's not something you have to go out and get.

It's not something you have to accomplish. It's right here, right now. This is how you do it every single day. And remember, I want you to use the free meditation that I've given you that's gonna strengthen your connection to your spirit guides. You can get it at dear gabby.com/spiritguides, or get the link in the show notes.

Now, once again, make sure to choose one small joyful action that you're gonna take this week or today, right here, right now. And just take these actions so seriously, because when you start to live your purpose every single day, your life becomes expansive. You feel so fulfilled, and everything begins to shift.

By the end of the day, I've usually done a lot from writing to working out, to being present with my family, to managing a thousand phone calls, doing podcasts. It's a lot. I'm, I'm doing a lot, and while I give a lot of energy to those routines, I realize I wasn't giving the same care to my own evenings and my own evening routine.

That's why I've been adding rituals, [00:10:00] magnesium plus into my nighttime, wind down. This has been a game changer for me guys, because magnesium is the secret sauce to peaceful sleep, to a regulated mood. It's the secret sauce, and for me, it's become a signal that the day is done. When I take my magnesium, it starts to send that message to my brain.

It's time to go to bed. I mix it in, enjoy the light, tart taste, and I notice my body start to let go of tension immediately. I feel calmer and my, my, my head stops racing and I just have clarity. I just start feeling like I'm relaxing easily. What I like is that ritual didn't just throw in any magnesium.

They selected a bioavailable form that's gentle on the stomach and that's really important 'cause some magnesiums can be really uncomfortable. So sit back and raise a glass to your new evening ritual with magnesium plus.

So now that you have my three-step method for working with your spirit guides to find your life purpose, I'm gonna go through some questions. I've got some really awesome questions on this topic of life purpose and how spirit can help you with your life purpose. This is our way to dive a little bit deeper, and I'm gonna answer some of these questions that you guys have sent in, and I know that my [00:13:00] answers are gonna help you feel a sense of calm and a sense of clarity, and I really hope this helps you take that next small, joyful step towards your path.

So let's dive in. Dear Gabby, how do I stop overthinking my purpose and actually start living it? You actually recognize that your purpose isn't something that you have to find. Your purpose is not outside of yourself. Your purpose is not something that is necessarily even a career path or a thing you do.

Your purpose is the same as everyone else. Your purpose is to feel good and to be a presence of joy in the world. So how do you find your purpose? You do whatever it takes to heal the parts of yourself that are not feeling good. You do whatever it takes to access joy. You do whatever it takes to elevate your consciousness.

You do whatever it takes to be a positive person and make a positive impact when [00:14:00] you are in an energy of impact. When you're an energy of joy, when you're an energy of a healing vibration. You're living and fulfilling your purpose, period. Right now, we're living in very chaotic times. We're living with a lot of divisiveness.

We're living with a lot of destruction. We're living with a lot of wars happening in the world. We're living with financial insecurity. We're living with insecurity about leadership. We are living with a lot of triggers and traumas. So your purpose. As a spiritual person, your purpose is someone who's raised their hand and decided to be on a personal development path.

Your purpose is to heal whatever's blocking you from the presence of that joy and love inside of you. And in doing so. You start to fulfill your function. Your function, which is to be a positive imprint, to be a lightworker, to be a miracle worker, to be a positive energy in the world. So if you're doing something that brings you joy in your career and that allows you to show up with more joy and elevate others around you, then you're living your [00:15:00] purpose.

If it's joyful for you in your parenting, and you're finding joy, and you're finding grace in your parenting, then you are fulfilling your purpose. If you are healing yourself one day at a time and getting better and getting to a place of safety inside. And your energy around you starts to elevate others.

You're living your purpose. Your purpose is to be in the presence of joy. Your purpose is to be a positive energy in the world. It will come through the things you do, but it's not the things you do that is your purpose. It's the energy that you bring that is your purpose. So right here, right now, you can take all the pressure off.

Your purpose isn't something you have to find. Your purpose is something you have to return to. Okay, dear Gabby, how do I know if my life purpose has anything to do with my career? Just like I said, your purpose has nothing to do with your career. Your career is a way that you fulfill your purpose. It's one avenue through which you can fulfill your purpose, but it's not the only avenue.

Your purpose is to be a positive energy in the world. If [00:16:00] your career brings you joy, if your career makes people happy around you, if your career elevates others, if being in joy in your career creates more joy in your life, then that's helping you fulfill your function, fulfill your purpose. But your career is not your purpose.

Your purpose is to be the light. Your purpose is to be in the energy of joy. Dear Gabby, how do I recognize the signs that my spirit guides are giving me about my purpose? Spirit is always directing you towards your highest good. And also towards your highest development. When I channel, I don't actually channel deceased loved ones.

I work with guides and I work with helping people align with their higher purpose. And that work is not about what they do necessarily as their job, but it's much more about how they fulfill that function of empowerment, joy, creativity, and love in their life. How they get closer to a spiritual elevated consciousness.

And so when I actually am doing that kind of channeling work, just like I'm doing for you right here, right now, my work and the wisdom that [00:17:00] I receive is. Always, always, always about what is it that's gonna bring the individual to a higher vibrational frequency? And it could be a creative project, it could be a healing practice, it could be a meditative practice, it could be a career advancement.

It doesn't matter how it's presented to you specifically. What is being presented is something that's gonna elevate your higher consciousness and elevate your ability to feel of higher vibration. So the signs that you're receiving from your guides to guide you towards your purpose are guidance and wisdom, inner direction.

Maybe it's an inner knowing or an inner voice, or maybe it's something that comes through in a meditation, or maybe it's an opportunity that opens up for you, an opportunity to be. Service, an opportunity to do something creative, an opportunity to grow your spiritual practice, an opportunity to do deeper healing work.

That's the kind of guidance that your spirit guides are showing you to develop your purpose. They're not saying, oh, okay, here's the exact message that you needed to hear, to know that this. Job is right for you. They're gonna [00:18:00] say, here's a step in the right direction. Here's a book you need to read to elevate your consciousness.

Here's a teacher you need to find to help you get closer to that wisdom inside. Here's a career path that you're gonna take that's gonna help you give more and to feel more creative and to be of service to others. When you find those moments of synchronicity or those signs that you're being leveled up, that's your guides bringing you towards higher consciousness, which is ultimately guiding you to your higher purpose.

So you know, you're being guided by your guides when it's something that's guiding you to level up to be of service, to have more joy or to expand your consciousness. Dear Gabby, how do I tell the difference between divine guidance and my ego's agenda? Here's how, when you are receiving divine guidance, it's almost like a lightning bolt of inspiration that pours through you.

Whether it's direction, whether it's creative ideas, whether it's just a feeling of ignited spirit inside. It's almost like a lightning bolt. It's those [00:19:00] moments in the shower, the moments on the run, the moments in deep meditation where you get those aha moments of, whew. That's the thing I have to take action on.

I have clarity. You feel clear, you feel creative, you feel calm, you feel connected. You feel a sense of inner knowing, a sense of inner wisdom. You feel. Intuitively led. Whereas if it's your ego guiding you or directing you, it can feel like there is an agenda or there's a boundary, or there's control, or there's an outcome that you're grasping towards, or there's a need to feel complete or something that you have to fix.

That's an ego agenda and ego guided direction. And sometimes we have to do some work to really tease out those ego directives and start to align with the spiritual guidance. And that happens through a spiritual practice that happens through connecting to our guides. That happens through opening our hearts to the divine wisdom that's available to us.

But knowing the difference is imperative because if you start to feel and [00:20:00] define what it feels like to be in spirit inspired. And you start to define that and write about that for yourself. Put it in a journal, write about it, acknowledge it, know what it means for you. As you start to do that, you start to develop this sense of knowing when, you know, knowing I'm being guided right now.

I also want you to write a list of all the ways that you feel like you're in your ego. You can say, oh, when I'm controlling, or when I'm in fear, or if I'm not breathing, I know for myself, if I'm asking a million people's opinions, I'm stuck in my ego. If I'm not breathing, if I'm talking fast, if I'm anxious, if I'm stressed out, if I'm feeling hypervigilant.

Ego, ego, ego. If I'm in spirit, I know. I just know it's on. It's clear. I'm talking. I'm clear. I'm guided. I feel supported. I feel safe inside. I don't feel like I have to figure anything out. I feel like I can give it over and I'm being led. Those two definitions are imperative, and I want you to step away later and do this practice of write down a list of all the ways where you feel inspired, and a list of all the ways when you feel like you're in fear.

And the [00:21:00] inspired energy is when you're being guided by spirit and the fear. Energy is when you're being guided by the ego. Know the difference. Dear Gabby, how do I take a small step towards my purpose when I don't know how or where to start? The fastest way to start to align with your purpose is to go do something that brings you joy.

Go today. Go do one thing that brings you joy. Play with your kid, make a meal. Go for a run. Go for a walk. When you ignite that spark of joy inside of you, you are aligning with your highest purpose. You're sending a message to the universe that I feel good. I want more of that, please. And that joy begets more joy.

That joy is the same energy of creativity, that joy is the energy of inspiration. If you spark that joy with one small action, you start to lean into your purpose. So that's the only thing you have to do. If you're feeling stuck and you're like, I don't know what my purpose is, go have some fun. Go do something joyful.

Get out of your own way. Stop overthinking. Stop trying. Stop forcing. Stop [00:22:00] being thirsty. Stop making things happen. Just go have fun. One spark of joy is the step towards your purpose. Dear Gabby, is my fear of getting it wrong, the thing keeping me from living my purpose? Yes, it is. The fear of getting it wrong is out of alignment with what fulfilling your purpose means.

If you say to yourself, there's no right or wrong, all there is is to ask myself, was that fun? Was that inspiring? Was that service oriented? Those three questions, was I having fun? Was I inspired? Was I serving souls? Was I doing something kind in the world? Those three questions, if they're being answered, then you are getting it right.

There's no getting it wrong. If you're focused on the joy, you're focused on the service, and you're focused on the inspiration, there's just no getting it wrong. There is no wrong, so stop fearing that you're getting it wrong. Start asking yourself, [00:23:00] did that bring me joy? Was that inspirational? Was it inspiring me?

And was it of service to another human? Those are the only questions you have to ask yourself because that's when you are truly fulfilling your purpose. Dear Gabby, what do I do with the guidance that I've already received from the universe? We can do all the spiritual practices, and we can do all of the visioning and all of the inspiration work and all of the grounding work.

And then of course the universe is gonna respond fast. The universe is gonna start sending you signs, guidance, wisdom, direction. But the most important step is to actually take action with the direction you receive. Your ego, your fear is gonna wanna say, oh, that's too good to be true, or, I can't actually do that thing that I'm being called to do, or that synchronicity is too wild.

It's not for me. No, don't stop. Don't miss the miracle. Take action. Take one. Small simple action on the direction that you receive. So for instance, if a book is being presented to you and someone tells you about it, and then the next day somebody [00:24:00] else tells you about it, and then the next day you see it on Amazon and the next day it falls off the shelf, read the freaking book.

Read the book, or if you start getting guided towards doing this project that you know is gonna bring you inspiration and joy, and then you feel that pull to do the project, and then you're thinking about the project and then the project starts to present itself in new ways. Start the project. There's no big accomplishment that has to happen.

It's just starting. Sometimes the most powerful action is to just start. So pay attention to the guidance, the synchronicity, and the direction that you're receiving from spirit and take one small right action today to start. Just start and the rest of the journey will unfold naturally. Dear Gabby, do spirit guides ever use wrong turns or mistakes to push me closer to my purpose?

You know me, I always say obstacles or detours in the right direction. If something falls apart, it's because something better [00:25:00] is on the way. If there is a detour or there's a U-turn that spirit saying, go over there. Follow that sign. So don't resist the guidance, even when the guidance isn't exactly what you thought it should be.

Your will, your way isn't gonna get you there. It's a co-creation. You have to be open. You have to be willing. You have to be creative, you have to be inspired, and then you have to listen and follow the direction. And sometimes the direction you get may be that something on the right side completely falls apart so that something so much better can happen.

We always have to think in that way. Even just something silly Today, I sat down to record this and my camera wasn't working, and I said, okay, I gotta call Zach. I have another camera at the other house. Maybe he can bring this camera over. And Alyssa, who works with me, said, well, Gabby, that camera not working is because the new camera's gonna be better.

It's just a simple reframe, but it's actually the way we have to look at it, that just when something isn't working, we have to see why the issue's being presented so that the next. Positive [00:26:00] thing is gonna show up in our place. This camera's a lot better, by the way. So just look at the detours, look at the things that aren't working.

Instead of getting bent outta shape about it, just say thank you. Thank you universe for the guidance. Thank you for the direction. Thank you for showing me the next right action. Okay, now to wrap up this episode, I'm gonna pull a card from my super attractor deck. Let's see what comes through today. This is gonna be a guide about your higher purpose.

Let's see what the guides wanna reveal to us. A card just fell, so when a card falls out of the deck, that's what's called a jumper, and you have to trust it, and you have to pick it up and you have to read that card. So this is our card. Holy cannoli couldn't be more perfect. Believing in spiritual guidance gives me certainty and the freedom to keep dreaming even when I can't see the result.

You cannot have picked a better card for today. Believing in spiritual guidance gives me certainty and the freedom to keep dreaming even when I can't see the results. Okay, [00:27:00] come on. Now. This entire conversation has been about trusting the guidance and the wisdom, even when we don't know the how or the when, and our purpose isn't something that we have to figure out.

It's not something that we see in front of us. It's an action that we take. It's an energy that we assume, and so this. Beautiful card is saying, the spiritual guidance that gives us the certainty and the freedom to keep dreaming even when we can't see the result. That our purpose is to hold the dreams, to hold the visions, to not try to force it or control it, and to trust that we are being divinely guided towards what is of the highest good for all.

This is the perfect message to close this show with. Believing in spiritual guidance gives me certainty and the freedom to keep dreaming even when I can't see the result. Good stuff people. Good stuff.

I also love that you can tap their tap to cook technology. Just load the meal into the pan, tap the recipe card on the oven, [00:30:00] and vie does the rest. Dinner is ready exactly when you want it. It's pretty unbelievable. Welcome to the new world that we live in here, and the service is flexible. So you can pick how many meals you want and how often you want them.

And with the newest model, the SU V 3.0. You can also get 15 cooking models like Air Fry, bake Roast, slow Cook, and Sovi. I've used it with my own ingredients and it works just beautifully. So go to sovi.com/dear Gabby to get 16 free meals when you order. That's SUVI e.com/dear Gabby, that's suv v.com/dear Gabby, to get 16 free meals when you order.

That's SUV ie.com/dear Gabby, save time, eat better with suvy. I've always been careful about what goes into my body. Organic food, supplements, sugar, none of it. I just, I, I, I want organic foods, I wanna take the right supplements, no sugar, no caffeine, no dairy. But over the years I realized that what was around our bodies matters just as much and cleaning products end [00:31:00] up on our counters and the air we breathe, and on the floors where kids and pets play, and that's why I made the switch to branch basics for me.

It's been a huge game changer. Instead of the cabinet full of bottles, I've got one powerful concentrate that does it all. Laundry, bathroom, windows, even produce rinse.

I was honestly really surprised at how effective it is. And it's simple and it's clean, and it's making me sure that everything is plant and mineral based, biodegradable, and free from the toxins that sneak into so many mainstream green cleaners. The research shows that chemicals in conventional cleaning products can contribute to respiratory issues, skin irritation, hormone disruption, just like it's just a mess.

Okay? And that's why I'm obsessed with branch Basics. And if you're ready to kick off your back to school, reset.

Before we close, here's a question that captures today's theme, letting your spirit guide set the pace for your purpose. Gabby girl, I love you so much. I am in a beautiful vortex space right now. I have been in it for months. Everything has been coming to me. I've been manifesting things like this, and I have a huge project that I'm working on right now, and it's a studio that I teach yoga and I teach meditation and I teach a lot of things in recovery, and I'm kind of making this studio that's based in mental health, but it is yoga and is fitness and it's all these things.

And I'm not, it's not that I'm [00:33:00] scared. It's just that like I wanna keep on being guided in the right direction. And sometimes I feel so in it and I feel like my angels are talking. My angels are talking. They're guiding me. They're guiding me. Right now it's like weird because I have this thing of like, just wait a little bit.

Just wait a little bit. Mm-hmm. And you know, I'm looking for like the perfect studio and I'm always wanting the extra guidance. I'm always wanting the extra thing. And obviously this right now, talking to you and seeing you, and it's just like, this is, it's so perfect. So I guess, yeah, I want more from my angels, which is like kind of selfish because I always get so much, so much.

But I'm like, I want more. I want the guidance, I wanna go deeper. Clearest messages because sometimes I do get like. Tiny mixed messages, and I feel like the more I practice it, of course I'm getting better and better and better. Yeah. I got a riff for you, Hailey. I got you, girl. All right. So Hailey is, as in her own words, she said, I'm in the vortex as Abraham Hicks will often say that when we [00:34:00] get in.

Sync with the universe or in sync with our super attractor power or fully in alignment with love. We are in the vortex, which is the language you used and you very much so are my love. You're very upbeat. You've got this energy that's vibrant. You believe. You're connecting to what you refer to as your angels, which I use the same language you are feeling.

The guidance of spiritual connection. Invisible doors are opening for you. You are in the pursuit of service and love. The studio that you're building is just unfolding naturally and everything is happening around you, which is really a direct reflection of your alignment that you've already referenced.

I am in the vortex. I am feeling good because when we're feeling good. We attract what we desire. What was profound about what you said though was that, and this isn't really a though or a but, but it's really an interesting turn that you took when you said, but I'm getting the sense that I need to slow down.

I'm getting the sense that [00:35:00] I shouldn't push. I'm getting the sense that maybe I should go a little slower as it relates specifically to the studio. So. What's happening is that you're hearing all these downloads, you're getting all this guidance, all these doors are opening for you, and the messages that you're receiving are loud and freaking clear because when you're in the vortex, when you're feeling good, the universal messages come through.

Just like you're talking on the phone with a girlfriend. It's just very, very easy, effortless. It's in the flow. But now you're getting this message to slow down, which I'm getting the sense is a message that you don't like. So here's the lesson for you, baby. Okay. When you open up to that vortex, when you open up to that universal presence of inspiration that is available to all of us, we just block it.

But when you open up and you clear the blocks, and you clear the blocks and you watched your Gabby since day one, and you're part of this community and you're doing all this work and you're so lit up, then you're gonna get clear guidance. But the first step is to ask. The second step is to listen, and the third step is to follow [00:36:00] the guidance that you receive.

So don't disobey the messages. Don't disobey the inspiration, the intuitive sense. We will receive guidance in all forms when we become willing and clear enough to listen to it. Sometimes that guidance may reveal to us something that's against what we think we need, and that's when we wanna always come back to the surrendering to what is of the highest good, turning over what we think we need to what is of a higher power or of the highest service to others.

And if you are starting to get the sense that there's this steadiness or slow it down or don't rush. And you're noticing that your ego part, your worldly Hailey, the human part of you, wants to resist that. I would really take a beat check in and notice where that resistance is coming from. Is that resistance coming from a place of control, of [00:37:00] future tripping, of trying to make things happen, of any kind of manic manifesting or forceful nature or meddling right.

And if the answer's yes, and you can really know, it sounds like you're very clear about what's up with yourself. The answer's yes, then the intuitive guidance that you're receiving to slow down is actually accurate. It is time to listen. And what I wrote today on my Instagram actually, is that we have to give ourselves permission to slow down and that we can speed up by slowing down.

So your guides are in the same pursuit of this goal, this vision, this desire of creating this space for people in recovery and the yoga studio and all the great gifts that you're gonna bring forth. But they're telling you there's actually a gentler, softer way. Slow the F down sister and listen up.

Because we think in our, particularly in American culture, but we think in our humanness that the more we do, the harder we push, the faster we go, the better we are. It's actually quite the opposite. When we slow down, when we pull [00:38:00] back, when we take our hands off the wheel, when we allow ourselves to speed up, when the speed is there and slow down when it's necessary, that's when we're in sync with the universe and we can trust that the slow steady speed that we take to.

Allow our desires to come into form is actually going to give us the opportunity to receive more as a result of pulling back, as a result of taking our time, as a result of being led, being guided, and being directed. You got me, Haley. Definitely, and I think it's like, you know, when for so long have stopped myself or been in fear and so many times if I've started things and never was able to finish, and you know, that's like very old behavior and very old Haley and so I guess that the only fear that comes up is like, oh wait, am I doing this because I'm scared?

Or am I doing this because this is actually what I'm supposed to do? Yeah. And I think exactly what you're saying. [00:39:00] Yeah. And listen to that and trust that and know it's not from a place of fear. It's a from a place of, yeah, I need to take my time.

I need to be grounded in what I'm doing so that, you know, I. I'm very clear and intentional about everything, and I'm just being guided. I always say that we really wanna allow ourselves to build our house on rocks rather than sand. And so if you're building something, if you're building a business, if you're growing a baby, if you are building a relationship, make sure that the foundation is strong.

Make sure that the foundation is grounded. Envision almost roots coming from the top of your head all the way down through your toes into the ground, so that you are physically grounded as you start to hear this guidance and wisdom as you grow, as you build, as you expand. We can't build upon a rocky foundation or an unsteady foundation.

We can't build and expand upon an unsteady foundation, and so are we gonna be perfect? No, but we have to really. Slow [00:40:00] down, be steady, listen and establish that foundation so that we can then become untethered, so that we can then allow and we can listen. The other thing that I wanna really identify for you and anyone else that's listening, that is already starting to connect to that speediness of that spiritual connection, that once you start to hear the synchronicity and you start to notice the guidance, and you feel that wisdom coming through in all these different arenas.

That is a sure sign to slow down and listen more because it gets exciting, it gets heady, it gets like really busy and you just wanna go, go, go, go, go. But we really wanna be grounded in what it is that we're really being able to hear and grounded in the direction that we're receiving. So I think we've nailed it with you, Hailey.

I feel good. I love you. Thank you so much, Gabby. Thank you, Hailey. Wow, what a show. Wow. What a show. It's a powerful reminder [00:41:00] that the more grounded we become in our spiritual faith, the easier it is for us to hear spiritual guidance. The easier it is for us to receive spiritual signs, the easier it is for us to trust and know with certainty that the guidance that we receive is indeed working on our behalf for the highest good for all, I welcome you all to deepen your spiritual faith today. Simply saying a prayer thank you universe for revealing to me the ever present guidance that is with within me and around me. Show me what you got.

That's your prayer guys. That's your prayer. I love this episode so much. This is so fun for me to do. And the beautiful truth is that your purpose is not a destination that you have to find. It's just a presence that's inside of you that you wanna get to. It's a feeling inside and it's not something you have to find.

It's actually already there. It's found in that next joyful action and in that next moment of [00:42:00] service, and then that next time that you follow that loving inner wisdom inside of you. And so I want you to let that be your focus. I wanna give you some support here and give you some energetic guidance to get you to the next level with your purpose here.
