In this first conversation of 2024 we’re talking with Audra Bartlett, host of the Wild Visionary Podcast, and a business coach who helps people turn ideas into incredible realities and problems into infinite possibilities - whether it’s a business, book or any other creative project.
Before I dive into Audra’s story and my takeaways, let me just say, I know it’s easy to be skeptical about manifestation in what's often a cold, sucky world. But when we lean into it just a little, we begin to reawaken to our magic. We remember those micro-manifestation moments of our lives where we just made things happen - like getting a parking space in NYC on New Years Eve. Or being a child, and doing everything - learning to speak, walk and comprehend life.
For Audra it all started with being a 10-year-old kid and trying to own a store in a mall! She’s since built multiple businesses through being persistent, resourceful and willing to say yes to things that felt impossible. Her journey has yielded magic-tiered milestones - being a single Mom and starting a bakery with no money, sealing the deal on a new house with a check for $327, building a 6-figure real estate business.
But there’s one thing she isn’t and will never be - more innately capable of starting the fire than you. So if we’re all on an even playing field, what do we need to know about this game of creating the lives and livelihoods we want?
Here are my favorite takeaways from Audra’s stories and golden nuggets of advice:
Through her first steps of owning the bakery, Audra unpacks what she calls the “Force of Nature” stage of our journey where we wake up to our potential and detach from the negative things that have happened to us.
We explore how burning desire is our gateway into believing we’re capable and beginning to see and feel new possibilities.
Ideas come to us for a reason, we just need to learn how to workshop them! Audra gives us a taste of the effective and very practical coaching she offers new entrepreneurs, and how to identify clues about whether something is right for us or not so we're creating something we actually want.
The universe matches our efforts - we discuss the role of courageous action and saying yes when we want to say no, and how this leads to unexpected opportunities.
