Bending Reality (How To Make The Impossible Probable) with Victoria Song

<p>“We might believe we have to work really hard, struggle, suffer, and endure a lot of pain. In order to make money, we might think we have to work harder and longer hours to make it—those are some of the status quo belief systems that a money coach would help you break through.”</p> <p>These words are from Victoria Song, a Wall Street Journal best-selling author of the book “Bending Reality: How To Make The Impossible Probable”. She joins the show and talks about the inspiration for her book, her career as a venture capitalist, her experience with hired coaches, and belief systems surrounding money.</p> <p>Further, Victoria delves into positive fuels for motivation which she also talks about in her book. She also teaches one critical framework—the difference between contraction and expansion. You can do this by tuning in to an event that happened this last week that you didn't like and you kind of wish went another way.</p> <p>Listen along to this episode as we learn to release contraction in the body and become more expansive in not just spending, holding, investing, and making money but in the overall aspects of our lives.</p> <p>Time Stamps<br /> 0:29 Inspiration Behind the Book "Bending Reality"<br /> 1:36 Process of Writing the Book and Career as Venture Capitalist<br /> 3:07 What A Coach Could Teach About Money<br /> 4:58 How To Pick a Coach<br /> 6:59 Can You Fake Motivation?<br /> 10:21 Do Something You Love; Turn Your Passion Into Profit<br /> 11:27 Unlock Your Motivation By Figuring Out What Your Why Is<br /> 12:11 Difference Between Contraction and Expansion: A Critical Framework in "Bending Reality" and How This Can Help You<br /> 17:22 Benefits of Mind-Body Connection<br /> 18:51 Expansion<br /> 19:51 Making Expansion As Your Default State and Releasing Contraction In Your Body<br /> 22:35 Feelings and Thoughts of Contraction That Make Us NOT Enjoy Money Even When We Have It<br /> 25:33 Ask Yourself: Do I Feel Contracted or Expansive?<br /> 27:54 Feel Gratitude: An Expansive and Heart-Opening Feeli
