Hello my beautiful friends and welcome back to the podcast. I hope you're having a wonderful day, whatever time it may be in the world right now. I'm excited for today's episode because I think that if you're someone who's like on TikTok, this episode you'll understand it really well because there is this like big trend right now on TikTok talking a bunch of creators basically talking about the lucky girl syndrome and

And I wanted to put my own two cents on this concept of being lucky. I think I have a lot to say about it because genuinely, I believe that I'm that lucky girl. I am just like a very lucky person. I've always been someone who like wins random things, gets flight for free, gets random food for free. It's just always been like if you ask my friends, I always just like get free stuff and I'm just...

they would consider myself a lucky person. But this whole episode is going to destigmatize this idea that luck is just like this fated will, like something that you're born with. I'm actually going to offer you guys a completely different perspective on an abundance mindset that's going to shift your luck, that's going to make you that lucky person. So I first want to dive into the power of the mind and the power of the words because I think

That sets the foundation to an abundance mindset. And what I've noticed with a lot of people in my life, just friends or even random people, is we take on these limiting beliefs really early on from childhood that basically condition us to believe that we're not lucky, that we're not abundant, that we're not worthy of abundance. And I see it with a lot of people just being like, if something goes wrong, if something goes out of our control or anything like that,

We go first to our luck. It's something completely like we connect it to our luck. It's really interesting We start saying things like oh, it's just my luck like oh I'm so unlucky that this happened to me and we're not even aware like this is happening on a really unconscious level when something goes wrong when something is Unfortunate something goes out of our control not the way we expect it. We associate that with bad

And this goes back to the confirmation bias in psychology. And I believe I dabbled on this in a past podcast episode. But if you don't know what the confirmation bias is, it's basically this concept, the psychological concept that your belief systems, what you believe and reaffirm to yourself, your subconscious mind will look for tangible physical evidence in your reality that confirm that belief system. And if you don't know what the confirmation bias is, it's basically this concept, the

So if you are every single day telling yourself that you are unlucky, that things just always go wrong for you, then that is the reality that you will live in. Seriously, like that is the physical reality that you will manifest for yourself because your subconscious will look for people and situations and experiences that confirm that belief system.

which is why I really wanted to start this episode by talking about the limiting beliefs and conditioning. And this might look like my limiting beliefs might look completely different than yours. It really depends on so many factors, but one of the big ones is like where you grew up, how you grew up,

what socioeconomic income, how your parents handled abundance and prosperity because those are the beliefs that your mind picked up, that your inner child picked up. And now as an adult, you are living that reality through your belief system. So I think I want to invite you. I don't want to give the information to you because I think this is where the shadow works comes in. But I want to invite you to take time, maybe even pause this episode and to really work through and ask yourself like,

Where is the resistance? What is my belief about abundance? What are my beliefs when it comes to prosperity and luck? And what are my parents' beliefs? What are the people around me's beliefs? Am I in a lack mindset? And am I an abundance mindset? These are just good questions to ask yourself, to ask your inner child and understand first off where you are at in your belief system. If you can understand your thoughts, you will begin to understand your life.

But so many of us think so unconsciously. We don't really understand that our thoughts create intention and their energy. So if you can start asking yourself first off, like, what are my thoughts when it comes to abundance? Do I reaffirm to myself that I'm lucky, that I'm abundant, that I'm worthy of prosperity? Or do I constantly bring myself down and tell myself that abundance is

I'm not worthy of it and I'm an unlucky person and like I don't even want to say these affirmations out loud. I don't want to claim them for myself. But you know what I mean? Like I want you to really deep dive and ask yourself like what are my beliefs? What are my limiting beliefs when it comes to abundance and luck?

And if you can pinpoint those beliefs, then you can start working on creating new ones, bringing in new affirmations, new mantras, new belief systems, and that creates new experiences from yourself. And that's not something that happens overnight. The shadow works takes work. And that's why tools like meditation and EFT tapping and all these amazing tools that help us reprogram our subconscious mind work.

But if you can become conscious of your belief system, you will also become conscious of the reality that you're living in and how you can shift into a new vibration. Okay, so now that we talked kind of about the foundational shadow work of things, I want to give my two cents on the lucky girl syndrome. So this idea, this is going around TikTok right now, is basically that you can become the lucky person that you've always dreamed of being through your thoughts, through your belief systems, and through the energy that you put out in the world.

And for somebody who doesn't believe in the power of words and the power of thoughts and the power of energy, this concept might be incredibly triggering because it requires you to take responsibility for your life, for your thoughts, for your emotions, and not every single person is on the path to doing that.

But this episode is for those who are, for those who are open and ready to listen because I have so much amazing wisdom on this. I genuinely, if you ask anyone that's close to me in my life, they will tell you that I'm a very lucky person. And it wasn't always like this, but I have uncovered the secret to abundance mindset and luck and I want to share it with you guys.

So a lot of people, they start to work towards their abundance mindset. They start to believe they're lucky. You tell yourself you're lucky. You're like, I'm so abundant. I'm so worthy of good things. Like money flows to me easily and frequently. And you tell yourself all these affirmations. You start to believe that they work. But then you're not seeing physical, tangible results in your reality yet.

And so you start to lose hope. You start to be disconnected from the energy of luck and the energy of abundance. When really, luck and abundance is a vibration. So you first have to tap into the vibration and genuinely feel what it's like to be lucky. Like if you were the luckiest person on earth, if you were so abundant, how would you feel every single morning? What would you do differently? What different things would you do differently?

thoughts would you have? How would you treat others differently? And you need to start showing up as that person as that highest self. But this is the secret that nobody tells you, okay? You need to start believing in the unseen luck.

It's easy to feel lucky and abundant when everything is just flowing to you and your physical reality when everything manifests well when all your desires already in your reality It's so easy to feel lucky But the trick is the secret is to being lucky is to believe in the unseen luck amidst the chaos So let me give you guys a really interesting example. So a few months ago. I was flying in

Turkish Airlines and I was flying to Turkey from LA and on the flight my TV wasn't working the whole time and if you guys know if you've ever flown through LA to the Middle East you know that's not like a two-hour flight it's at least 13 12 hours minimum usually it can be up to 14

So I'm on this long flight and there's not much to do. Okay, you can sleep, you can listen to music, you can journal, but you sometimes want to watch TV. You sometimes want to watch a movie and have a good laugh. But my TV is just not working.

And I remember thinking to myself like this is just funny. Like maybe a few years ago I would have reacted and made such a big scene out of it and just been so dis in disalignment. But I remember just telling like one of the flight attendants and saying you know what like the TV's not working. What do you suggest if there's any way you can help me? So she tried rebooting the TV a couple times. It didn't work. And the whole flight goes by. I don't have a TV. We managed. It was okay.

This is like the most first world problem ever. But it was okay. There was no TV and I managed like whatever. And I kind of forgot about it. But I just remember thinking like, wow, I paid a lot of money for this flight. Like there was no TV. Like, come on.

And I decided that I was going to alchemize it. I didn't make a big deal out of it. I didn't resist it. I didn't attach myself to it. And so I claimed back my luck in that scenario because a lot of people who would have that, a seat with no TV, they would, you know, tell themselves suddenly, oh, it's just my luck. Like, I don't have good luck. Of course, I got the seat with no TV. That's what a lot of people would react to. And that is how they're giving their power away.

But I knew that. I knew that I could take that route and I decided to take a different one and I wanted to take the path of least resistance. So I just told myself, okay,

Whatever, no TV. So a few days go by and then I get an email in my inbox from Turkish Airlines saying that the flight attendant had reported the unfortunate incident with my TV and that they were rewarding me like a couple thousands of airline points that basically for my next flight it's going to take off like a couple hundred bucks of my next flight because of this inconvenience.

And I just want to say like I had not contacted customer service. I wasn't on the line with them for hours. I wasn't chasing them. I kind of just surrendered to the moment and I said, you know what? Like this is funny. What a pleasure. Like I don't have a TV. So what? And I kind of surrendered.

that and claim back my luck and said you know what I'm still so blessed I'm still so grateful I'm still so lucky and I managed and because I tapped into that vibration of luck I literally alchemized that situation and was able to pull in more abundance you have to believe in the unseen luck even if a situation seems really unfortunate you can alchemize it and turn it into luck at any moment's notice through your thoughts through your emotions through your reactions because the

the truth is you can't control every circumstance in your life. You can't control every aspect of your reality, but you can always control your response and in your response and reaction, that is where your power is. So if you started believing in the unseen luck, I want to challenge you. Basically, every single time that something that would often seem unfortunate happens to you, I want you to pause and tell yourself like, wow, I'm just so lucky that

Like I am just so abundant because something really amazing is going to come out of this. And I know at first when you say that it might feel like so fake and so awkward and you might not even believe it. But with practice,

you will understand like every single unfortunate thing that happens in your life you're gonna just alchemize it into like the best situation ever you're gonna pull in more abundance more clarity more prosperity into your life if you started believing in the unseen luck if you didn't have an attachment if you can surrender your desires to the universe without expectations and attachments that is how magical like

You have no idea how magical your life will get when you just let go of the attachment. What happens is we start to believe we're lucky, but we look for physical evidence to confirm that belief system. And then when we don't find the physical evidence right away, we form an attachment, we form an assumption, we form a storyline around our luck, around our abundance that hinders that abundance and prosperity to come into your life.

which is why I will say this like a million times on this episode, you have to believe in the unseen luck. Even if you don't see it, you have to walk around believing that you are the luckiest person alive, that things just happen to you, that good things always flow to you, that the universe has your back, that you are the universe's golden child. You just have to believe in that and watch how prosperity grows in your life. And one more thing that I want to share, this practice that I love to do, that I invite you to do as well, is I...

okay, call me delusional, but I have like full-on conversations with the universe, sometimes even out loud and I'm not ashamed of it. But something that I love to tell the universe is show me how good it gets and just invite the universe and invite your spirit guides or your angels or whatever you believe in to kind of guide you throughout the day and to leave glimpses of little surprises of abundance throughout your day to

Tomorrow when you wake up, set that intention. Give your spirit guides and the universe that intention. Tell the universe, today you're going to show me how good it gets. Today I'm going to experience unexpected abundance. Today I'm the luckiest person alive. And the more that you tell the universe that, and the more that you reaffirm that to yourself, the more that the universe will prove you right. Cool.
