Welcome back to Dear Gabby. You said yes, you pressed play to listen to this episode about how to have an abundance mindset. Strap on your seatbelt, get ready to go. Let's put out there the angel numbers for abundance, 888. It is, when you see 888 today, you can say, thank you, Gabby. Thank you, angels. The universe has my back.

And now we're going to see it everywhere. Now we're going to see it everywhere. Right. I wanted to kick it off because we are going to talk about this amazing topic of abundance and how we can change our mindset. But I wanted to ask you today first, what are you Gabby Bernstein grateful for today? I like that you're asking me what I'm grateful for. [00:02:00]

Okay, first, I'm grateful that I don't have lice. All the mothers out there will know. All the mamas out there, all the mamas out there, all the daddies out there, all the caregivers out there. Yeah, my child had lice. I was miraculously in New York City. Unfortunately for him, I wasn't there to help him, but he has the most amazing nanny who's like a family member and she helped him through it.

But Damn, I don't have lice. They came to check my hair and I'm just grossing people out. I hope you're not eating breakfast or eating while you're talking about this. But that's my gratitude today. Simple, simple, no lice, no lice. See, you know, it's funny because I think gratitude is a really like major topic for me personally.

And you know, I'm fortunate to spend a lot of the summer out in Fire Island. And every morning when I take my walk, there's a sign that literally says Take a moment and ask yourself what you're grateful for today. I love that. Isn't that amazing? And [00:03:00] I literally do. I love that. We should do like a street team billboard in New York City with that.

Should we do that? Yeah. Okay. We got a lot to. Ria, think about that one. Okay. We got a street team billboard. That is a really good idea. That's a great idea. But my question really to kick this off is, besides what you're grateful for, is really like how do we stay in the energy of abundance? Mm. Well, you started us off perfectly.

The fastest way to get into the energy of abundance is to lean into what you're grateful for. When you appreciate what you do have, you create more of what you want, period. So what is the energy of abundance? The energy of abundance is an energy of appreciation. an energy of possibility, an energy of creativity.

It's an energy of wild open heartedness. [00:04:00] Okay, so when our hearts are open and we feel alive and we feel creative and we feel optimistic and we feel joy. That is abundance. You might be thinking, well, Gabby, that doesn't translate into cash. Okay. Okay. Got you. I'm going to address that. While that might not translate into cash right here in this moment, it could translate into cash in an hour, three hours, four hours.

Let me give you an example. Today, a woman walked into my house to check my head for lice. Her name was Fran. Girl walks in. I'm like, the second she walked in the door, I'm like, woman. She's a beautiful young woman. She walks in. I'm like, I love everything about you. Your energy is amazing. She's like, Hey, I'm pregnant.

I got to go pee. You know, like get in there, go pee four months pregnant. The cutest thing you've ever seen. She sets herself up. Her whole energy is beautiful. She's just in a high vibe. She's not scaring us about the situation that we're dealing with. She's just like, [00:05:00] let's get to the bottom of this. Let's make sure everything's okay.

So she's checking my scalp, talking to me, loving on me. Like it was the Sweetest conversation. She sees the title of my book and my book cover on the table. She's like, self help. This is your chance to change your life. And I want to change my life. And she gets into this whole positive energy. And you know what happens?

We loved her. We gave her my, we gave her all access pass to the Gabby coaching app. We gave her the book, super attractor. And you know what? She showed up grateful. She showed up with an attitude of gratitude. She showed up with a positive vibe. She showed up with a smile. She showed up with an energy that was so contagious.

And what does she get? She gets so much of that energy of love and connection back to her. That is such a simple example. Right? When you show up to life with a high vibe energy, a high vibe attitude, the universe will deliver. In fact, you were with me. I was, uh, pitching something to somebody on the phone the other day and actually wasn't pitching.

I was just sort of like, this is the coolest idea ever. And it was like a big [00:06:00] wig in the space, right? It's like a big head honcho of a company that everyone knows. And I was like, Just got on the zoom and I was like, this is the coolest thing ever. I can't wait to tell you about it. I want to do this. Even if you don't want to do this, I'm going to figure out a way to do this.

It's so cool. It's so much fun. By the end of the call. She's like, I'm going to do whatever it takes to make this happen. And it was because I was just in an energy of abundance. I wasn't in a thing. Thirsty energy of trying to make it happen or force something into being or I didn't have a lack mentality.

I was in an energy of abundance. When you're in the energy of abundance, you become abundant. That energy is reflected back to you and then some. I want to pick up on something you just talked about, which is the lack mentality, because I do think that, and just speaking personally, like sometimes I can really mire myself in lack and just get all like, like, look what he has or look what they're doing.

You know, like that, and that's the worst. place for me to be. Yep. Lack mentality is a big block to your [00:07:00] abundance. And that doesn't necessarily just mean that you believe that you're lacking financially. It could be lacking in the support that you need or lacking in the love that you want. And when you focus on the lack that you choose to lean into, then you're actually manifesting more lack.

Don't invest in your illusions. Invest in your visions. Oh, wait, wait, did you just make that up? I just made that up. Put that, hey, Rick, tell me to put that into my book, my new books, email it to me. Yeah, I'm working on a new book called Seven Habits of the Super Attractor and that is, that's a good one.

We're putting it in. Yeah, no, it is. Don't invest in your illusions. Invest in your visions. these false beliefs, false evidence appearing real, right? That acronym for fear. We create more of it. We give it momentum. What we see, we manifest, what we believe we manifest, what we think about, we put on repeat.

That repeated thought becomes a belief. That belief puts out an energy and that energy is what [00:08:00] manifests. Mic drop Ria. That is a mic drop. Okay. I know that you have a little story about how you grew up, right? Because you grew up feeling like a sense of lack. I grew up with a serious lack mentality. I grew up in a very wealthy town, but my family did not have any money, fear, lots of financial insecurity, always fear around money.

It was like the thing on sale. And I just learned a lot of that behavior and that fear never felt like there was enough. Lived in a small apartment. All my friends lived in these huge houses. It was like a lot of shame and fear and discomfort around. Now, In the same breath, I always had food on the table, I got a scholarship to college, I wasn't on the street, right?

But, but it wasn't, it wasn't a positive, abundant mentality in my home. And I graduated college and I had a degree in theater with zero interest in being an actress. And I wanted to make money. I wanted to be abundant. I wanted to feel financially secure. And it wasn't so much about making so much [00:09:00] money that I could be so wealthy or anything.

That was just like, I don't want to fear money. I want to feel financially secure. And so I was willing to work. I was willing to get to work. I was willing to hustle. I wanted to do something that was fun. And so at the time I was really into nightclubs and restaurants. I was like, I was like, 21. It was like a party girl.

And it was early days of my addiction. And I was like, like trying to, it wasn't before I was a full blown drug addict and alcoholic, but I was like a party girl. And so my cousins ran some promotions at nightclubs and they're like, you're got a lot of young friends. Like, why don't you invite your friends to the club?

I negotiated 20 percent of the bar that night. So whatever was spent at the bar, I would get 20%. And I was say Gabby at the door. So my friends would show up, they'd say Gabby at the door, they gave me a bunch of drink tickets, so I was like the coolest person on the planet, and my friends could get past the velvet ropes, they were all getting in, and boom, it was a big night.

I made a thousand dollars cash that night. This isn't everybody's normal story, but I was like, Oh, this is something I'm into. I'm going to do the work. I'm going to get my, my email list together. It was like, [00:10:00] this is what I was like, literally on dial up emailing people. No one was texting. I was dialing up to send an email to someone that they would get in their office to their AOL account.

And I realized I could make money that night. And I said, okay, you know what? I just gave myself spiritual proof that I can earn. I'm an earner and I'm going to do whatever I'm, I had a quantum shift that night. I am an earner and it wasn't about the money. It was about the choice I made. It was about the, okay, yes, there was a actual reflection of cash in hand, but it was a choice I made.

I could have had that cash in hand and live with a fear based mentality about money, even with a lot of money, right? People, millionaires, billionaires still live with fear of money. I'm not going to carry the burden of my parents beliefs in financial insecurity. And instead, I'm going to choose in this moment to believe that I can earn. And That was a quantum shift.

Well my friends, this is such a beautiful week and I just wanted to let you [00:11:00] know that I love this time of year so much because it allows me to take this time for reflection and gratitude and it's just a great time to take a little bit of time off and reflect on all the great things that we've been doing in our lives.

[00:14:00] Not everyone's going to have a quantum shift. There's lots of work we can do to unpack these stories and belief systems. Definitely read self help, my new book, self help. That book will help you undo the belief systems of financial insecurity or whatever belief systems are holding you back and keeping you in negative patterns.

That night I changed my mind about my money. And when I changed my money mindset, my, my experience of money changed. And from that point forward, I continued to grow and grow and grow into a more and more of an abundance mindset. And today I know that energy is currency. I know that when I'm in a high vibration, when I'm in a faithful place, when I put the work in, it's not just going to sit back on your ass in a faithful energy.

You're going to do the work in a high vibe. They're done. it's very abundant. That's it. Bottom line. And I think you, you touched on a really important thing to celebrate all the abundance and the winds in your life, celebrating the abundance and the winds, celebrating what you do have, like I said before, creates more of what you want.

[00:15:00] So if you're looking at your life and you're thinking, I don't have any cash in the bank, but what do you have? You have a roof on your head. You have enough to pay your bills right now. You have food that you can eat today. You have friends that you can contact. You have a cell phone that you can use. You have whatever, what do you have?

If you're listening to this show, you have abundance. There's a phone or a computer or a device in your ear that you can afford that is allowing you to listen to a conversation about abundance. This is an abundant conversation. You're being put into the energy of abundance. No matter how broke you may think you are right here, right now, focus on the abundance of the fact that you have access to this right here, right now.

If my lowest points, you know, I think that's important for me in particular to, to really sort of take in. And when I feel that way, I, and this sounds so corny, but I always know that Carl will be home and we're going to get into bed and he's going to roll over and hug me before I go to sleep. And to me, that is [00:16:00] really the baseline of my abundance.

Baseline, babe. Like, baseline, the love in your life, the friendships, the partners, the children. Baseline. Baseline. That's, I mean, listen, the world is in a lot of crisis right now. Let's be real. There's, there's war. There's horrific, catastrophic events happening as a result of global warming. And I will say it loud into the microphone, global warming and people are losing everything.

And so they may be listening to the show. Okay, Gabby, I lost everything. How could I be abundant? All right. Well, that is a moment more than ever where you have to lean into your internal resources. We have to lean into creative possibilities. where you have to focus one foot in front of the other and lean into the friend that you know, the support that you have, the water bottle in your hand.

That sounds obnoxious. It might sound aggressive. It might sound like really easy for me to say sitting in a studio with you in New York City, so comfortable, whatever we have right here, which is a privilege. But when we hit [00:17:00] those bottoms, when everything is removed, There's two choices. We can really reclaim in a mindset of what is possible, or we can really let the circumstances take us down.

And so wherever you are, assuming that you're not in a catastrophic experience, for those who may have had discomfort in that way, you got to show up. You got to really celebrate what you do have because so many don't have it. And for those that don't have it, We've got to show up and we've got to donate.

We've got to be there. We've got to send energy and we've got to send services and send whatever we can to be of service to other people. Because those of us who have abundance in this moment, whether it's. You know, access to 5 to make a donation, make it, make it, make it. But again, there's so many ways besides that financial contribution, there's so many ways to contribute to kick off somebody else's sort of road to abundance.

Yeah, I think kicking off your road to abundance really just starts [00:18:00] with your belief systems in your mind. And so it's abundance mindset. Once again, abundance mindset has nothing to do with how much cash you have in the bank. An abundance mindset has nothing to do with how much debt you might have. An abundance mindset may not have anything to do with how wealthy you are.

An abundance mindset has everything to do, everything to do with your creative thinking, with your connection to your inner world, with your focus and attention on what you do have, what is thriving in this moment, and The attitude you bring, just like Fran this morning. It was like, she walked out with more cash.

She walked out with a free app. She walked out with a book in her hand. Why? Because she walked in with abundance mindset. And one of the things I love about that is looking at Fran like, she didn't expect it. She didn't know it. And you know, you just don't know. She wasn't looking for it. You don't know where it's going to come from.

There's a difference too, between being thirsty and having an abundance mindset. The thirsty energy of like me, pay me, hire me, me, [00:19:00] me, me. is the opposite of an abundance mindset. An abundance mindset is relaxed, surrendered, not needy, confident, courageous, creative. It's chill. The abundance mindset is like, I got what I need right here, right now.

I feel good. I need for nothing. I'm in a good place. I'm just focusing on what I do have in this moment. When you show up to a job interview with that vibe, you're far more likely to get the job. When you show up to a date with that vibe, you're far more likely to get the second date. When you show up, when you're thirsty, right?

Thirsty is like, I need it. I want it. Like me, tag me, pay me, hire me. We can sniff that shit in seconds. It is so unattractive. It's such a turnoff. It's graspy. It's needy. It's controlling and it's okay. If, if you're in that thirsty energy right now, just give yourself a moment. Just love yourself. Just put a little hug around your shoulders and just say to yourself, it's safe to focus on what's thriving right here right now.[00:20:00]

I don't have to get anything in this moment. I'm safe. Remind yourself that everything you have right here in this moment is absolutely perfect. And. Undoing that belief system, that thirsty energy, takes some work. I definitely think you need to read a copy of Self Help. Need is not the word. I suggest, I suggest Self Help because it can undo that thirsty vibe.

But it's not, it's not working for you. So a first step is to just witness it, recognize it, see it, recognize how that's not really working out. Ask yourself, how's that going for me? And, Reorganize it by focusing on something that you do appreciate that you do have in this moment. You know, that's perfect because actually the clip we have to share today is I think going to help those people because it's really about affirmations, like affirmations you can say that will help you cultivate an abundant mindset.

Yes. Affirmations for an abundance mindset. Let's play the clip.[00:21:00] 

What is the story that you keep telling? We have to reorganize our stories. So that we can reorganize our energy. So if the story is, I am always going to be struggling to earn. I want you to change it to something you believe in. So it could be, I love this affirmation. I use it all the time. I'm open to creative possibilities for abundance, or you could use abundance flows to me with ease.

And just keep giving you some affirmations that you can pull from. likely you're affirming something you don't want. I don't have enough. I'm in debt. I can never have enough. I'm going to lose what I've got. You know the stories. So some other storylines, some other beautiful affirmations. I release the past and I create abundance in this present moment.

The energy of abundance creates more abundance in my life. I'll keep throwing more at you . This feels so good to say it all. I'm worthy of what I desire. [00:22:00] Don't choose an affirmation that doesn't fully resonate with you because the thoughts and the words have energy and we have to change our story and our language in order to create an energetic adjustment.

And when we create that energetic adjustment through the mantra, through the affirmation, through the words, then everything changes because energy is our primary currency, not the number in the bank, the energy. Our energy is actually what manifests our energy is what manifests. If our energy is free, open, receptive, trusting, faithful, abundant, it's what will manifest.

Her energy is filled with lack, fear, doubt, shame, blame. We're going to create more of what we don't want. Anytime that you notice yourself in that negative story, I want you to just pray for that shift in perception. You can say your affirmation. You can say a prayer. You can say, thank you universe for releasing this lack [00:23:00] mentality and guiding me back to love.

Second step is about appreciation. respecting our abundance, really recognizing that what we focus on and we're creating more of. So this is the beautiful practice that Abraham Hicks has is the appreciation game. When you start to reach for appreciation, and in this case is appreciating your abundance.

And so your abundance could be that I appreciate that I have dinner on the table. I appreciate that I have a bed to sleep in. I appreciate that I have a job opportunity around the corner. I appreciate that I have the internet so I can earn money online. I appreciate, I appreciate reaching, reaching, reaching.

I appreciate the abundance of being in this moment, in this presence of this conversation right now, I want you to play the appreciation game every freaking morning, wake up every day, people and appreciate what are you appreciating that abundance energy? is a reflection of the appreciation. Gratitude is abundant energy.

Appreciation is abundant energy. Your energetic feelings of [00:24:00] abundance will blow your mind because all of a sudden what's going to happen is you're going to start to feel more abundant and you're going to feel an energy of fun. Fun and fun is an abundant energy. Joy is an abundant energy. Your abundance is an inside job.

Abundance and money is really just an energetic currency. When we get that, We stop looking outside of ourselves and we start looking within to cultivate an energy of abundance, an energy of joy, an energy of celebration, energy of fun. That energy is what attracts more abundance to us. That energy is what attracts the job that we want, and the creative endeavors, and the abundant energy begins to flow, and it comes back to us like a boomerang.

There is a infinite abundance, we just have to tap into it. There is an ever present stream of abundance, and we can flow with it or we can block it, [00:25:00] but it's going to flow just the same. That was a beautiful adaptation of an Abraham quote. Abraham says, there is a stream of well being that flows. We can choose to flow with it or we can choose to resist it.

And, and that stream of well being is that stream of abundance, that stream of wealth, that stream of joy, that stream of appreciation. It's just flowing all the time. This is your time to expand. And that expansive energy, everything in your life can expand with you. Have fun with this guys.

Josh, I love that I started it by saying we have to reorganize our stories by reorganizing our energy. Our energy can be reorganized in a moment with the affirmation of, I welcome creative possibilities for abundance, or I focus on what's thriving in my life right [00:26:00] here, right now. Those little adjustments.

Have the power to completely reorganize our energy.

It's the first of a kind. There are none others like this. It's a bit hard to believe, but it says why it's so genius for decades. Women with ADHD have been overlooked and undiagnosed, but that's finally beginning. to change. This is where misunderstood comes in. Misunderstood features three original shows from the understood podcast network.

They give you tips from an ADHD coach, analysis paralysis, bringing you personal stories and practical tips. ADHD and rejection sensitivity is hosted by a psychologist who explores the intersection of ADHD and well, everything else.

This show is sponsored by cotton. If you're listening to this show right now that I have to assume that you're like me and you tend to be drawn to more natural things in life, like cotton, cotton is natural.

And comes from the earth because it's natural. It doesn't contribute to microplastic pollution, people. And I have to tell you, I had no idea that synthetics like polyester are actually made from crude oil. And every time we wash synthetics like this, we are actually contributing to adding microplastics to our waterways, which is exactly why I'm going all in on cotton.

So I'm committing to living in the now and making the natural choice with the fabric of our lives. First off, I'm going to make sure that we use cotton products wherever we can, and there's nothing more [00:30:00] comfortable or gentle than cotton. And it just gives me the ability to just be in that cozy feeling, but also knowing I'm not polluting.

I'm talking about sheets, bedding. There's nothing better than cotton sheets. They're so soft. They're so light. And we're going to swap out paper towels for reusable cotton towels, cotton bags to take to the supermarket, just anywhere I can. I'm making cotton my number one choice. Cotton's versatile. It's long lasting, it's timeless, and it's just so much better for the environment.

So remember to check the label for cotton and take a deep breath and focus on the present. Cotton is the fabric of now. Learn more at the fabricofourlives.com.

This topic is so beautiful. I love it so much. I'm proud of this topic. Yeah, it's really good because I also think that one of the things in the clip is talking about just the creative possibilities, right? This is kind of what we talked about a little bit before, like you just don't know where [00:31:00] it's going to come from.

And if you enter into that energy, anything is possible. That's why I love that affirmation. I welcome creative possibilities for abundance because anytime that I've had that experience, something miraculous happens, some crazy thing happens. There was a time in my life, Josh, where I had, I've never had any debt.

I think that growing up with parents who feared money, I learned that story of I want to be in an abundant mindset. I don't want to have debt. I always sort of, even when I was hand to mouth, I was covering my bills. But something happened where I had about 700 of debt, which was not a lot of money, right?

That's not a lot of money in the grand scheme of things. But when I was in my early twenties and I was just making enough money to literally pay my bills, it was enough money that I have to carry on my credit card. And it is a lot of money to many people. And in that moment, it was a lot of money to me.

And so I had to ask my stepfather, Mike, my beautiful, amazing stepfather. He loaned me the money so I could pay off my credit card because I didn't want to carry the debt. I don't want to have to pay interest on it. So I paid it off, but I [00:32:00] still owed Mike 700 and I really didn't like having to owe him that money.

I was just praying for abundant possibilities and I was sort of opening my heart to what was possible and just like, okay, I need some extra money, but I'm just getting by. How am I going to get this money? It was building my career, doing PR in the day and moonlighting as a spiritual teacher at night.

Just making it. I, about a week later in my prayers, I was putting it out there. Thank you for creative possibilities. Thank you for creative fun. A week later, I get a check in the mail from the IRS for 700. No way. 700. Okay. I kid you not. And I'm, I call my accountant, I'm like, why did I just get a check for 700, like, is this a mistake?

Please don't tell anybody. And my accountant's like, oh, when we did your estimated quarterly taxes, you overpaid. I overpaid by the exact amount that I needed then. It's incredible. The universe literally sent me a check for the exact amount of money that I needed to pay off my [00:33:00] stepfather and to feel like I didn't have debt and I've never had debt since.

And I know that to somebody that might be like, Oh, you know, everyone is different with their money. But for me, that was like, Oh, it's important. I had to pay off my checks and pay off my credit cards right away. There's just definitely a reversal of my mindset from a childhood. Yeah. That's 700. It was really a cool moment.

Wow. Well, I mean, like you said, abundance can show up in a jillion different ways. The IRS can send you some checks. That's abundant. That's pretty abundant. That's pretty abundant. Is there a limit to what we can attract? Is there a limit to what we can attract? No. You have the power within you to manifest and attract your greatest desires and then some.

In fact, I believe that most people, even the most high achieving people, really attract a fraction of what they're capable of. And the secret is not hustling. Yes, hard work is part of it. But the secret is being in spiritual alignment, having a connection [00:34:00] to your source, to your spiritual connection.

And the more you deepen your spiritual practice through meditation, through the power of positive thinking, through prayer, through deep, deep prayer. inner work, whether it's therapeutic work or self help work, and you harness that energy inside, you start to awaken this magnetic energy. And that magnetic energy has the power to attract its likeness.

And the more you focus on the magnetic energy, the more the actions that you take have a greater impact. As you bring that energy to your actions, your actions have impact, the impact creates more abundance. Period. End of story. So yes, get to work, do the hard work, but make sure you're doing it from an energy of abundance, from an abundant mindset.

You have the power within you to take actions that have far more power in the world. So Take it from me, do the inner work, ground yourself in your spiritual practice and strengthen your faith. You can create and attract far more than you could ever imagine, period. And if you want to [00:35:00] start that now, a great step, a great tip is to go listen to my meditation, my magnetic energy meditation.

If I have negative thoughts, will my negative thoughts manifest a negative outcome? People always freak out about their negative thoughts, thinking that their negative thoughts are going to manifest a negative outcome.

Okay, let's unpack this. The more you think those thoughts, the more they become beliefs. So a belief is just a thought that you keep thinking. If you repeat that thought and you repeat that thought for decades, years, and years, and years, and more decades to come, then you start to believe it. When you believe it, you receive it.

If you just have a one off negative thought here and there and you have the ability to reorganize it, then you of course can redirect your path. I don't want you to think, okay, my negative thoughts are making me have these problems right now. It takes time. It takes a lot of [00:36:00] repetition. So, If you have the awareness to witness your negative thoughts in the moment, witness it, notice it, forgive yourself for having that thought, and then reach for the next best feeling thought.

This is my choose again method. Notice that fear based thoughts you have in the moment, witness it, forgive yourself for having that thought. That's just a thought that I keep thinking. I forgive myself. And then reach for the next best feeling thought. So if the thought is I'm broke, maybe you could reach for the fact that you're listening to the Gabby episode on abundance mindset.

Or if you're feeling like I can't find the love that I desire, you can reach for the next best feeling thought. My friends love me so much. so much. And I can focus on that love that I have in my friendships. And I have a sibling that I have such deep love and connection to. And I'm going to focus on that loving energy in my life.

And you keep reaching and reaching and reaching for the next best feeling thought. This is a proactive approach to guide your thoughts from the negative into the positive so that [00:37:00] you don't get consumed by the negative thoughts and let those thoughts build up too much momentum. It's all about unwinding the momentum and changing your thoughts.

You can change your energy and therefore change your life. So Josh, this is such a great topic. I hope that you guys can leave with these messages, that your abundance is really a reflection of your mindset. Start today, shifting your mindset, recognizing what's thriving.
