2 minutes before I was due to jump into my LIVE mentoring activation zoom sesh for DREAM STREAM this week, all the power dropped out and everything went to shit.

I had a choice, to call it quits, politely send everyone an email and let them know that we would be back online next week... OR figure the f out how to get online and into the Dream Stream Zoom Room, in a matter of minutes AND get grounded enough in the chaos of tech failure to hold activating space for everyone.

Join me in this heartfelt solo episode as share the power of authenticity and courageous action... especially in the face of messy imperfection. This is an ep about resilience, adaptation, and trusting in the process.

Discover the importance of embracing imperfection over inaction, the impact of authentic self-expression, and the significance of self-care in maintaining energy and passion. I share my heart, and all the feels,  and raw reflections, which I am sure will resonate with anyone seeking to embrace their dreams and take bold steps towards their visions and desired outcomes.

This is one big fat reminder to show up authentically, even when it feels messy.

CB:

so much for watching, and I will see you in the next video. Hello my friends. Welcome to another episode of Dream Makers. It's CB here. CB solo episode time. I just want to bring you the fullest version of me. It's Tuesday. I just did Dreamstream. I'll tell you a little story about that in the moment, in a moment, which is why I'm wanting to share the fullness of me. But I am just to paint a little picture for you. I am sitting in my car. I am down at the beach. I'm looking at the waves roll in. It's warm in my car at the moment. And I'm snugly in my jumper because it's getting a little bit cooler outside, but I've been for a walk this morning and I went for a swim in the ocean and it was. Fresh, but it felt really good. And then I had the craziest experience with Dreamstream and that has been so good for me and so good for us. And also I'm feeling this unsettledness a little bit in my heart. And I was like this is perfect. I need to record a CB solo. And so let's just hit record and see what is here. And as I was driving down to the beach Apart from the fact that, as for a CB solo, I just love recording my podcast in places that feel good for me. I also needed to come down to the beach because there is zero power in my house. So this morning we had A Dreamstream call which is 9. 30 every Tuesday. I think we've done 10 weeks now. This is probably the 11th week which in and of itself is really cool. There's just so much gold in there that has been activating people into this grounded sense of Clarity and heart connection and figuring out ways to be and create in the world. That's really honoring of them and their heart and getting people into courageous action and creating momentum and creating beautiful like shifts in energy and shifts in identity that are helping people to step into this. Epic dream maker mode to make the dreams reality one week at a time. So dream stream has been bloody brilliant, but two minutes before dream stream call this morning, entire power went out in my house. And if it had happened, maybe. 15 minutes before the call or half an hour before the call that would have been a little more helpful because then I would have had time to figure the fuck out what I was going to do. But it was two minutes before the call. I was trying to dry my hair a little bit because I'd been in the ocean and was about to just make my coffee and get on the call. And yeah, boom, the power just did not boom. It just went silent. It just went. Everything turned out, turned off and I was like, Oh my goodness. And I really did not want to get in a spin. I really did not want to get in a flap, but anyone who knows me knows that I, I'm some what. technically challenged. I feel like I'm getting better and better at it. And I'm so proud of myself for, not actually losing my shit, but just trying to figure it out. Anyway, I had to look around the house for my iPad. And then my iPad, I hadn't been, hadn't used for so long and my kids had been using it that the password wasn't working. And then when I finally figured that out, I couldn't get into Zoom and I couldn't get into Zoom on my phone or on my iPad. And I was like, this call is happening is now. Two minutes has passed. The call is meant to have started. So I called my sister and she was going to be on the call anyway on the Dreamstream call and just asked her to get on the call for me and tell people that I'm coming. There was definitely a moment where I was like I'm just going to have to cancel this. I'm, this is too hectic. It's not working. The technology is not working. Maybe I'll just cancel it and apologize. And See everyone next week, but there was this part of me that knew that people were on the call waiting for me and waiting you know waiting to Be activated waiting to see what was here for them today And I didn't want to let those people down even though I was feeling really Uncomfortable because I felt like I was already letting them down because I was not on the call when I was meant to be. Anyway I guess we figured it out. Jen got on the call. She had to figure out how to log into my zoom so she could be the facilitator and tell everyone that I was having a little bit of technical difficulties, but I would, I'd be there soon. So yeah, I jumped on the call and. I have gone out to the car. I don't know why I decided to the car. There's no power in the car either, but you can get light. I think that's why I do so many things in my car actually. But I was able to figure out a way when I'm in my car, I can rest my phone on my steering wheel and I feel comfortably held in my car and there's also great light. So I was like, I'm here. Let's do the dream stream call. A few swear words holy shit. Thank you for being here. Thanks for holding out for this. And thank you for putting up with the little technical mess. But I feel like just really stoked that I decided to show up even though it felt very messy, even though I was like so frustrated with the technology and I was so frustrated with myself for Not having all the passwords and all the things that I needed in that moment, but I so could have been like, oh fuck it Too hard. I'll just send everyone an email and I'll see them next week to be willing to messy Vulnerable a little out of sorts show up and do the call and of course The other thing with Dreamstream is you know, I very much hold space for around a theme and there's a lot of stuff that comes directly from my heart that I want to share in this space, but I also put time and energy into preparing the activations. So I have notes and I have my cards and I have a framework and some things that I want to talk about and specific questions that I've thought about in advance that have come through that, that feel like they'll be really powerful for people and I had no access. It was, a beautiful opportunity to just really trust in myself and trust in the process and trust that I have all the goods within me and that regardless we can facilitate a, an activation. Of course I can do a heart meditation. Of course we can ask some clarifying questions and just trust that what comes out in that moment in time is what is needed for everybody. And we did it so well. We had. Such a beautiful conversation. And the thing which I still worked with was. Green light. So what do you need to give the green light to? So when we think about anything that you want to bring into reality in your business, in your life, what the dream is, what the next project is, what it is you wanting to bring into reality, the thoughts you're having that you want to be real things in the world. There is always a point where you're going to have to take a leap, right? A leap into the unknown. I'm sorry, some people are not going to want to hear this. They want to wait and see that everything's going to line up perfectly for them. And for someone else to come and give them permission or tell them what the, what they want to do and the dream that they have is valid. And for someone else to give them the green light and to give them permission, but the actual Cold hard truth is your dream, your desire, your heart, your life will ask you to step right up to your edge and take a leap into the unknown before any other clarity comes. any other information comes. So you have a dream, you have a desire, you have something new that you want to be, do, you have in the world. Your job is to, get really clear on what that is and have a clear and strong and compelling vision that's going to hold you through the uncomfortable times. But without a doubt, you're going to have to go up to your edge and take a leap. And and it's uncomfortable. Sorry, this is what we were speaking about in dream stream, because we want to take a leap into the unknown, but also into towards the direction of our dream being a real thing. And so we want to see what we are actually capable of. I think that we are put on this earth to see what we are capable of. We are put here to be custodians of our precious time and our energy and our heart's desires and actually do something about it. I feel like the worst. The worst feeling. So I'm feeling very uncomfortable in my body because that felt messy for me at the beginning because the tech wasn't working. And there's still a hangover, there's this residual feeling in my body. But I would take that uncomfortable feeling any day. Like of getting shit wrong or things being messy or people thinking you're not professional or whatever fucking bullshit stories You know are coming up around You know the way that we show up and when things don't work out exactly the way we envision them to be You know I'd take that discount for any day over the deep bloody pain of looking back and realizing your time had passed and you hadn't courageous, messy, imperfect action towards who you really want to be in the world and what you want to experience and what you want to create and what you want to bring into reality for your family. That's what we've been asked to do here as creators, as dream makers, as heart driven creators and money makers, is what is it that we want to bring into reality? Are we willing to take a leap into the unknown and really see what we're capable of and means you're going to have to give yourself the bloody green light. Maybe a big fat green light. What's the big fat green light you need to give yourself now to take the leap or what are the moment by moment, little green lights that you need to give yourself. And that came out of the conversation today as well. Like those tiny little green light moments are just as powerful because every single moment that we have a shift in energy and a shift in perspective, that's a big, fucking miracle in and of itself. And so even this morning with the experience that I had, I could have decided not to do the call because I didn't want, to be seen as messy. And then I realized, Clary, that is what you're here for. That is a huge part of what you are here for. And it has been affirmed to you over and over and over again by so many people in so many different ways that. I give permission, I give people permission to show up and create in the world messily and imperfectly and done is always better than perfect. Because sometimes I appear a little rough and ready and I think I do have this willingness to show up and do the thing, even if it feels messy. And but the, say a little, there's moments and moments of little green lights in there. One, giving myself permission to show up and do the dream, show up to the dreams dream court. By the time I got there, it was like somewhere between five to 10 minutes later than I was meant to 60 minute activation. Do you know what I mean? Like you want to be there from minute one to minute 60. To have the impact, not be fucking around for the first five, 10 minutes. So I felt so uncomfortable about that in my body. But I also was so like I'm here for it. This is happening. I can quit. and send them a neat and tidy email or I can just keep taking steps towards figuring out how to load up zoom on my phone and get out to the car and grab yourself a water and hope for the fucking best. And by doing that, not only did I you know, show up imperfectly for the thing that I said I would show up for. But I also facilitated a bloody bang and dream stream activation. And now there's a bunch of people who have a greater sense of clarity, who have a greater sense of power, who have a greater sense of ownership. Oh, there was so much in that conversation around trust as well. Like people giving themselves green light to trust themselves. even when it gets uncomfortable. If I've had that kind of ripple effect on people who are now going out into their week and doing things with a different energy and a different intention, then thank fuck I showed up even in the messiness of the tech not working and me feeling like then I was running late and all higgledy piggledy and I'm here to create a beautiful energy for people and my energy felt a little whack because of the lead in. It did not feel like a slipstream into the dreamstream. It felt like a shit fight into the dreamstream this week. And maybe that's such a perfect example of what fucking life and business is like sometimes. Oh my God, I'm swearing again. I realize I had been so good at not swearing on the podcast and then I did the podcast last week with Jen and I think we just get excited with each other and swear. It's just a normal part of our life, our vernacular. So it's starting to come out a little bit more again, but I don't know. I think it's not the end of the world. It shows, how passionate you are about things. So anyway, that's what I wanted to share with you. So many things done is better than perfect. Whatever it is that you are wanting to create in the world, don't wait for everything to be lined up. Give yourself the green lights. Don't wait for the perfect conditions. Even if it feels messy, show up anyway. Do not. Ever underestimate the ripple effect that you will have on other people. Those tiny moments of green lights of what has got me here to record the podcast. Now I'll tell you what else I'm giving myself green lights for now that morning happened. I gave myself green light to cancel a podcast recording. because I can do it on my phone, but I don't want to do it on my phone as much as I love doing CV solos on my phone, wherever the hell I am. I love it. I want to do guest podcasts when I've got my computer, when I'm on my zoom, when I can. look at the person in their eyes and share heart space with them. So I gave myself a green light to cancel a guest podcast today and one that I really want to do. I'm really looking forward to having a conversation with Tuck Dees. You'll see her podcast come up soon, hopefully in the next couple of weeks when I reschedule it. But I've given myself a green light to cancel that. I've given myself a green light to calm the hell down. And I'm having moment by moment green light moments of, Oh gosh, what if people thought the dream stream was a bit hectic and messy this morning? Green light done is better than perfect. At least you show up and held space for them. And some people have had, profound change from that. And those little moments of giving myself green light to have a different perspective. It's very helpful to me, to my energy, and bringing myself back into a place where it's even easier to give yourself green lights. The other thing, I feel like a very big call for a green light to take it friggin easy today. If there's no technology. Maybe I should just read my book and feed myself. I've already been for a beach walk and an ocean dip and When I finish recording this podcast I'm gonna go and stand out in the ocean air and breathe it in and Then I'm gonna go and get myself some food and some coffee and just really fill myself up That's what I feel like now that I was not expecting today. I thought today was going to be like action taking. I love that on Tuesday vibes for me. This one, it didn't go as I thought it was going to. It also was brilliant in so many other ways. And now I'm just rolling with the current condition. When you find those little orange, Newsletters, newsletters and thingies that come in the post that tell you that the power is going to be out. Yeah, I found that. I found that now. So The power will be back on later this RV. But for now, I think I'm just going to go and take care of myself. I've got things I can do on my phone. There's certainly people I can make connections with which I know that I'll do when I go and have breakfast and just do some really good for Clary things. So I will still be making progress and momentum and taking action towards bringing my dreams into reality today. But I'm not going to be sitting at my computer to do that. I'm going to just go and have a good for Clary majority rest day, take care of my energy, fill myself up in all sorts of ways and the action that feels aligned for me to take today and easy for me to take while I'm like on the move or out of my home or away from my computer, then I'll do that. I'll do that and everything else. I just trust in the timing. Seriously. There's so much in just trusting in yourself and trusting the process and trusting in the timing and not getting your knickers in a twist. That reminds me of my nana, hello nana, not getting your knickers in a twist about the things that you cannot control. So that's it for today, podcast done love you dearly ooh, I'm going to remember to pull a dream maker card at the end of this Big fat invitation Greenlight for you to come and join me in Dreamstream. I promise I'll be there on time next week and back with my power on it back at my computer, but every single week that we do this I get messages from people all the time like I needed that, I needed to hear that, I needed my brain and my energy was scrambled and I now have come back into a greater place of clarity, excitement for where I'm going, I know what's essential for me this week and I'm just going to go and do it and I'm going to go and have a good time doing it and it feels exciting to be back in of making my dream a reality. That is the intention of it. It's, I'm very intentionally doing it same time, every single week, nine thirties, 60 minutes via zoom. Come in your trackies. But I just, it doesn't even matter. Yeah. It's just about creating the space for yourself and I'm always like bring pen and paper and highlighters and a big glass of water or a tea or a coffee. If it's evening, you can have a vino for all I care. And get into a place. with us that helps you get integrated connection with your heart's desires, the reality of everything that is going on in your life for you right now. And let that be a bouncing off point every single week. And if we do this and we do this together, every single week, we are getting back into energetic alignment, into the stream into the identity of a really empowered creator and maker and. Shit just gets real and exciting. Go and check it out. There will be a link at the bottom of this podcast. Currently it is still only 11. I haven't changed it. I've been meaning to change it. But I just feel at the moment, I'm just happy where it is. It will change. It is going to go up because it's honestly really impactful. But for right now it's 11 bucks and Jen and I spoke about it on the podcast last week. It's like the cost of a smoothie a week. And then I was thinking about it this morning or a big fat coffee or don't even think about what it's going to cost you. Think about the impact that it's going to have on you taking brave action. And then that has a ripple effect on your capacity to make hundreds or thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars because you are actually doing the thing you're meant to be doing in the world. It's bloody worth it. So go and check it out. If you're curious, just send me a DM, just send me a DM on ITM. We'll just have a little chat. All right. Love you all dearly. The car just jumped out as I was shuffling. I haven't seen this baby for a while. It's bright red with blue writing. Action beats hope. Boom boom. Every single time. And that's, oh, I'm just so proud of myself for showing up and do the Dreamstream taking action and just showing up and facilitating, the clarity that we've got out of that for every single person who was on the Dreamstream or listening to this. Podcast today whatever it is, the dream you want to bring into reality, the project, the next thing that you want to get done. Action beats hope every single time. Done is better than perfect every single time. When you take action, you dissolve the fear. When you take action, you bring clarity. When you take action, you are affirming to the universe that I am here for this, even if it feels messy, even if it feels imperfect. This is where we're going. This is what we're doing. I am the decider. You bring that decider energy to everything you're doing and creating, and it will create energy and momentum in what you are putting out into the world and then what it is that you receive back. So action beats hope. I love you little dream maker card. Thank you everybody for being here on this episode with me. And Oh, I got another voice note from someone. I haven't talked about this publicly on the podcast yet, but I want to do a segment on the Dream Maker podcast, a little bit like Dear Dolly, but it's going to be Dear CB. And I just want to have genuine, open hearted, authentic, like a little bit of Q& A, like people are sending me either voice notes or questions that They are really challenged by it and they're the things that people don't really talk about because they're a little bit uncomfortable and that's some of the things I want to start addressing when it comes to courageously bringing your dream into reality, going after what you want, building the business and life that you love and loving what you do. There's a challenging side to that. Everybody and it comes in so many forms, but what I find is so often what is personal is universal. I got another voice message this morning from one of my friends and it really, she gave me a banger of a question or a theme and it really affirmed to me that I need to get on with creating an iteration of DSCB. If you're listening to this podcast and you think about. That you might have a question for me, send me a text, send me a DM. I can, I will absolutely, if, I can share your name if you want me to, or we can do it anonymously and I'll just read out a question and just give you my perspective on that in a way that might help you, have a shift in energy and a shift in perspective that will help you get into dream maker mode. So yeah let this be a moment of, Hehe accountability. I have strange ways of bringing things into reality, but one of the biggest things is creating layers of accountability. I'm doing it as we speak. Even if there is only one iteration of DSEB, it will happen soon. If you're keen and you want to, if you want me to get on with it, send me a text or a DM and, the DDCB app and or give me give me a question that you want me to anonymously respond to. And I love you dearly. Thank you for being here. Thanks for being on the ride with me. If no one has told you recently. You're doing such a brilliant job. Go you good thing being courageous. The percentage of people who are genuinely going after their dreams and shifting them out of their mind in and beautiful ideation and beautiful dreaming mode. We all love to dream, but the percentage of people who get up every single day and decide that their dream is possible and available for them and decide to do something about them about it is so bloody small. And you're one of those people. So be bloody proud of yourself. All right. Peace out. Love you. Thanks for being here till next time.
