On this episode of New Paradigm Human , we'll be talking

0:55

about monetizing your hobbies and passions

0:57

. Can you , should you ? Let's get into

1:00

it . Hello

1:22

everyone , someone in our community today

1:25

said something that I thought was really interesting

1:27

and I had an immediate response to it and I

1:29

felt like I wanted to jump on here and talk about

1:31

it , because if one person is thinking this , I'm

1:34

sure that there are many other people who are also

1:36

thinking this , and it's just a very interesting

1:38

topic to dissect

1:40

and figure out what's the truth in it . All

1:42

the things that I personally love to do as a first

1:44

line profile and this was a generator who

1:47

said that , while they really

1:49

wanted to spend their days doing

1:51

things that they loved , they also felt

1:53

strongly that they didn't want to monetize

1:56

all of their passions . So , yes

1:58

, this was a very interesting topic to me , because

2:00

I think it can be a blocker to

2:03

living out your life

2:05

, especially as a generator , but even as

2:07

a manifesting generator , if you hold this

2:09

belief and I also feel that

2:11

it's one a belief that you

2:13

could overcome if you really

2:15

do want to spend your days doing

2:18

what you love and make money for it , or

2:20

it could be something

2:22

that you just know to be true about yourself

2:24

, and I want to talk about a few of the things in your

2:26

design that may contribute to

2:28

you wanting to monetize your

2:30

hobbies or passions or not . So

2:33

yeah , let's break it down a bit . The first

2:35

thing that I was thinking about is this

2:37

belief could be some conditioning

2:39

that you took on . Is it possible

2:41

that either you were told growing

2:44

up , or even just as a young

2:46

adult , that if you

2:48

monetize something , it always becomes work

2:50

? It's not fun , it would ruin

2:52

it for you . That's just something

2:55

to examine . I don't think I ever

2:57

had specifically this belief

2:59

, but it felt really

3:01

impossible to me before

3:03

I started my deconditioning process

3:06

, to figure out how would I have a job

3:08

where I was monetizing

3:10

things that I love to do number one

3:12

or number two . I looked around

3:14

at a lot of the jobs that were maybe

3:17

more similar to what my actual

3:19

passions were , so like more creative

3:21

jobs , and I thought I

3:23

know what a job is , I know what a

3:26

job feels like . You're ultimately working

3:28

for someone else , you're serving someone else

3:30

, you're serving a client , and if that

3:32

doesn't appeal to you in general

3:34

, then yeah , taking a hobby and

3:37

putting it into that structure would probably

3:39

be unpleasant , and that was how I felt

3:41

I actually didn't mind working the jobs

3:43

that I worked . I'm a generator . I love having

3:45

something to do , I love having a purpose , especially

3:47

when I was single in my 20s

3:49

which I was single from the entirety of my

3:51

20s Work was an important place to me . It

3:53

was somewhere to go , it was a social

3:55

outlet , it was a place of belonging

3:58

. It was my ideal environment

4:00

in a lot of ways , of wet kitchens

4:02

. And yet I knew that I didn't

4:04

want the stuff that I love doing

4:06

to be pushed into that type of environment

4:08

, because I didn't want to do it in service

4:11

of something that somebody else owned

4:13

, where I was just like a cog in a machine . And

4:15

so for me , even though I am a deeply

4:17

creative person , I actually went

4:19

in the direction of a career and

4:22

job that was not very creative

4:24

, because I did , in a way , want to

4:26

keep that energy for myself and

4:28

, yeah , I just didn't want to be in a creative

4:30

environment per se . I was okay doing other

4:32

things that were satisfying enough for me

4:34

and just knowing that it was a job and it was

4:36

work and it wouldn't always be the most

4:38

fun and it wasn't necessarily something that

4:40

I was deeply passionate about . It was interesting enough

4:43

, it was satisfying enough , but I didn't want my creativity

4:45

existing in that type of structure . I don't know

4:47

why . This was something that I just felt , I believe , but

4:49

it was pretty true for me . So it's okay

4:52

to think that way . So , to sum all

4:54

that up , it could be some conditioning that

4:56

you took on where you saw someone else in

4:58

your life have a bad experience trying

5:00

to do something that they loved . Maybe they tried to start a

5:02

business and just could never get it off the

5:04

ground and ended up hating what they were doing . Or

5:06

maybe they were using their skills

5:09

related to their passion for

5:11

someone else's company and ended up feeling

5:13

really burnt out or unappreciated . So

5:15

it's good to just look and see like is there

5:17

an origin to this belief

5:20

or is it something that you truly

5:22

believe to be true as

5:24

an experience you've had , or something that's core

5:26

to your being ? And as far as how to distinguish

5:29

between those two things , I think to an extent

5:31

you may be able to feel it in your body

5:33

. If it's a belief , sometimes

5:36

it's something that is like up in your head

5:38

and you literally feel

5:40

your energy come up into your head . You feel a lot

5:42

of negativity swirling around it , whereas

5:45

if it's something that's just like deeply truthful

5:47

for you , it typically just feels kind of peaceful

5:49

in your body . There's not a lot of that anxiety

5:51

. You don't feel your energy go up to your head

5:53

. But it might take a little while to figure out

5:55

the difference for you . But typically

5:58

a belief is going to be rooted in something that you have seen

6:00

previously in your life , especially when

6:02

you were young or impressionable , and it's not

6:04

something that you specifically have experienced

6:06

yourself . So if this is a belief , what do you do

6:08

about it ? Well , this is kind of

6:10

my area of interest at the moment . I've

6:12

been creating a lot of tools over the past

6:14

year for generators and MGs who

6:17

want to reprogram their subconscious . But

6:19

all the things that I'm creating are rooted in

6:21

subconscious reprogramming , the law of assumption

6:24

, journaling , seeking out whatever

6:26

mental health assistance you need

6:28

, and I truly do feel that

6:30

if you are persistent

6:33

in wanting to rewrite a belief , you absolutely

6:35

can and you can totally experience

6:37

a different reality . So it could

6:39

be that right now you're in a reality where

6:41

all you can see and

6:43

think is that you would never

6:45

want to monetize your passions

6:47

and the things that you love to do . But once

6:50

you undo that belief , suddenly

6:52

you start to see examples of oh , here are all

6:54

these ways that I could get paid to do what

6:56

I want to do all day , and suddenly

6:59

that belief just doesn't seem true anymore

7:01

. Because you're seeing all these different possibilities

7:03

, I will definitely be releasing some

7:05

new ways to work on this

7:07

mental deconditioning . I ran a group

7:09

earlier this year where we did it and it was really successful

7:12

. So we'll definitely be doing something like that again . But

7:14

, depending on when you're listening to this , the best

7:16

thing to do is to join my email list , which is linked

7:18

below , so that you get updates on everything that

7:20

I'm releasing . But truly

7:22

, the belief that at least I have about

7:25

this is that people

7:27

want to pay for things that

7:29

make their lives more easy , fun

7:31

, meaningful , that help them grow , that

7:33

reflect who they are and give them a sense

7:36

of belonging . Most humans

7:38

love to spend money when it's on

7:40

the right things . That

7:42

said , there are

7:45

a million reasons in today's world

7:47

to have a negative

7:49

relationship with money . It is absolutely

7:51

one of the most distorted

7:53

concepts and

7:56

, yeah , basically it's impossible

7:58

to grow up for the most part without

8:00

some kind of belief about

8:02

money . That does not serve you . That's

8:05

a topic for a different day . But at least for me

8:07

, as I've worked through a lot of these money

8:09

beliefs , I've come to really

8:12

love and appreciate people who

8:14

are taking the risk of creating

8:17

something that they're really passionate about

8:19

. And when I find something like

8:21

that out there , be it a product , a service

8:24

, a course and I'm not just talking

8:26

spiritual things like human

8:28

design , I'm talking things that I'm

8:30

interested in like makeup and clothing

8:33

and planners and stationary

8:35

and entertainment it brings me

8:37

a lot of joy to

8:40

part with my money in that way and to

8:42

support that person to receive something amazing

8:44

in return that I feel makes my life a lot

8:46

better . So if you have a belief

8:48

that spending money is

8:50

always losing something

8:52

, that would be maybe a belief to look at

8:55

, because it definitely does not have to feel

8:57

that way . So , yes , this idea of getting

8:59

paid for doing what you love to do , it could

9:01

be just a belief you have or

9:03

it could be something that is very true for you

9:05

. So if it is true for you , let's

9:07

talk a little bit about that and just some things

9:09

in your chart that may make that true

9:11

. So I would say that , generally

9:14

, generators are not

9:16

great at splitting our

9:18

time , energy , focus between a

9:20

lot of different things , and

9:22

for us , it tends to be important

9:25

in the long run to find a way to be paid

9:27

for something that we

9:29

enjoy doing . It's simply

9:32

because , in today's

9:34

world , that's what it takes

9:36

to be able to dedicate a significant

9:38

amount of time and energy to something . It's

9:41

not the only way you could marry

9:43

or partner with someone who has

9:45

money that allows you to

9:48

pursue the things you want . You

9:50

could essentially retire

9:52

at whatever age you're at and live

9:54

off investments or money that

9:56

you have made in another area of your life . It's

9:58

not the only way . There are other ways

10:01

, but for most of us , we need

10:03

to be generating some kind of consistent

10:05

income in order to survive , and

10:07

so , in order to actually spend our days doing something

10:09

that we really love , we have to get paid for

10:11

it . On the other hand , this is not

10:14

completely true for manifesting

10:16

generators . I find it is actually quite

10:18

common for manifesting generators

10:20

to have a few different , what I call energy

10:22

outlets . So you may have

10:25

a paying job that

10:27

supports you financially and isn't your

10:29

number one passion , but it's something that's

10:31

satisfying enough for you . It's sustainable . You

10:34

don't mind showing up to do it every day . Then

10:36

on the side , you have your hobbies and

10:38

projects and you don't monetize

10:40

those because you want them to feel fun

10:43

and free and just this

10:45

really light and beautiful

10:47

and expansive part of your

10:49

life . So if that's the case for you

10:51

, that is fully in alignment

10:54

with the manifesting generator energy . You

10:56

could also want to dedicate

10:58

most of your time to something that you enjoy

11:00

and get paid for . That is also possible . But

11:03

for manifesting generators , making sure that

11:05

what you're doing feels fun and

11:07

doesn't get that heaviness of

11:09

work is so important

11:12

. So if you're in that category and

11:14

that's your reality , that is fully

11:16

in alignment and that just may be

11:18

your truth that there are things that

11:20

you want to do that you

11:22

have no interest in charging money for

11:24

because , straight up , you

11:26

do not have to monetize everything

11:29

you enjoy . I've actually thought about

11:31

this a lot and I've

11:33

wondered , just asking myself why

11:36

are there certain things that I

11:38

do want to monetize ? Why do

11:40

I want to monetize the spiritual work that

11:42

I do ? Why did I decide

11:44

to go down that path as opposed to

11:46

some of the other things I'm interested in ? Because I

11:48

have a lot of interests . I have a lot of things

11:50

I've been passionate about even longer

11:53

than spirituality , things like

11:55

interior design and graphic

11:57

design and personal style

11:59

and planning and stationary and journaling

12:02

. Those are just some of the things that I can think of that

12:04

I dedicate a lot of time

12:06

, money and energy toward and

12:08

have for a very long time , and

12:10

yet I've never felt inclined

12:13

to monetize them . And

12:16

as I've thought about this a lot over the

12:18

years , I think some of this you

12:20

can find if you take a look at your North

12:22

node . You have a North node in human

12:24

design , but you also have one in

12:27

astrology . I'm particularly interested

12:29

in the astrology one because I think it's

12:31

a little bit more broad and a little

12:33

bit easier to understand , since

12:35

everything in human design tends to be a little bit more

12:38

about like a specific energy or

12:40

something more mechanical on the body graph

12:42

, whereas I feel that the astrological

12:44

North Node goes really deep into a lot

12:47

of soul themes . For you , I

12:49

have paired North Nodes with

12:51

a lot of human design work I've done

12:53

in pure generators . I don't have anything

12:55

where I offer that at the moment , although I

12:57

will soon , but for me , if I

12:59

look at my North Node axis , I

13:01

have an Aries North Node and a

13:03

Libra South Node . So Aries North

13:06

Node is about unique this

13:08

and going forward on your own path

13:10

and really paying attention to

13:12

your sense of individualism . So

13:15

it would make sense that I would be

13:17

pulled to start my own business

13:19

, rely fully on myself , talk

13:21

about a system that is all

13:24

about your unique self

13:26

and maybe why I wouldn't

13:28

feel so drawn to monetize

13:31

the hobbies and interests that

13:33

definitely fit under the Libra South

13:35

Node . So Libra is a lot

13:37

about aesthetics and

13:40

all those things I described , like

13:42

interior design and style

13:44

and just basically all these other aesthetic pursuits

13:47

. So it makes sense that those are a big part of what

13:49

I'm interested in . It's probably something that

13:51

my soul has a lot of experience in

13:53

creating that kind of like beauty

13:55

in the world . I feel like almost all

13:57

of my favorite influencers that I follow

14:00

have either Libra , suns or

14:02

Libra prominent in their chart , but

14:04

that's not ultimately my destiny in this

14:06

life , so it makes sense that that's not what I pursued

14:08

. So you may have a lot of hobbies

14:10

and interests that are part of your South Node

14:12

and there are definitely things that you want to maintain . They're

14:15

things that are a really important part of your

14:17

life , but it's not where like your biggest

14:19

soul , learning and growth will come

14:21

from . So it would make sense why you wouldn't

14:23

want to monetize them , whereas there's

14:25

something that maybe fits more into your North Node

14:28

, one of your interests , where it would

14:30

actually be really satisfying and lucrative

14:32

for you to monetize it and it

14:34

wouldn't necessarily feel like work . A

14:36

few more things in your chart that may lead

14:39

you to feel like why or how

14:41

could I ever monetize the things that I love

14:43

? I would take a look at your heart , your , if

14:45

you have a defined heart versus an undefined heart

14:47

. Defined hearts probably naturally feel

14:49

a lot of the value in what they offer

14:52

, whereas if you , like me and

14:54

like the majority of the population , have

14:56

an undefined heart , it may feel very

14:58

unclear why anything that you

15:00

do is of value to anybody

15:02

else . For me , as an undefined heart , if I

15:04

try to understand or think about

15:06

the value of what I create , it's

15:08

just very hard for me . It's something that I'm

15:11

not going to have a consistent understanding

15:13

of . Sometimes I will have that energy in

15:15

there in my heart that says like okay

15:17

, I really understand the value of this . I can see my own

15:20

value , but most of the time I just don't . If

15:22

you have an undefined heart , you just don't have

15:24

any intrinsic internal way

15:26

of gauging the value of something

15:28

the way someone with a defined heart does

15:30

. And so for me , as an undefined heart and

15:32

a lot of other undefined hearts , I know we

15:35

rely on sampling a

15:37

lot of external feedback . I

15:39

love to pull my audience to see what

15:41

they're willing to pay for things . It doesn't mean

15:43

that I necessarily

15:45

go with what the majority

15:47

of people are saying . It simply means

15:49

that it gives me some data , some things

15:51

to kind of feel into . I get some

15:53

expert help from outside people

15:56

who are really good at pricing

15:58

things and help me work through the calculations

16:00

of what makes something a win-win

16:03

. That's both feasible for me and supportive of

16:05

what I want to create an offer , and also

16:07

the people who are purchasing . So yeah , if you

16:09

have an undefined heart , it may not be obvious

16:12

how or why you would

16:14

monetize something that you love to do , but

16:16

you can work with that energy and still

16:19

make money off of something that you love

16:21

if you want to . Next , if you have a

16:23

second line in your profile two

16:25

, four , six , two , two , five , five

16:27

, two things like that you just may have no

16:30

clue why anything that

16:32

you're doing is special . You think that what

16:34

you're able to do is something that everybody can

16:36

do , so why would anybody ever

16:38

pay for it ? And that just simply is not

16:40

true . As a second line , it's very hard for you

16:42

to see the things that you do are special . They

16:44

feel very natural and normal to you

16:46

. So , for you , if there's something that you loved

16:48

doing and you would love to spend your entire

16:51

day doing it , ask the people around you

16:53

hey , is this thing that I'm doing special

16:55

and why would you pay for this ? Do you

16:57

know of anybody who would pay for this ? Is

16:59

there a way that maybe I could do this more and

17:01

how might I do that For you ? As a second line

17:04

, seeking out that support

17:06

from other people who are

17:08

a positive and supportive influence on

17:10

you would be really powerful , because you

17:12

may see that , oh , this thing that I have

17:14

been really discounting about myself

17:16

because I just thought that everybody could do , is

17:18

actually really special . There's a market for

17:20

it and it's something that I really might want to put

17:23

out there . Things like the undefined heart and

17:25

the second line profile , and there's other

17:27

things also in our human design , but those are

17:29

the two that tend to be really important

17:31

for people to look at Honestly , like

17:33

as an undefined heart . If I

17:35

think too hard about , like I said

17:38

, the value of what I'm doing , or even

17:40

just having the confidence to put all of

17:42

this out there , the confidence to think

17:44

that I can sit here and talk

17:46

and people would want to listen , if I think

17:48

about that too hard , it honestly just like makes

17:50

me sick , like it makes me feel like

17:52

ugh . So your own feelings

17:55

about selling something

17:57

that is important to you or selling

18:00

a passion or monetizing

18:02

something that you enjoy doing , actually

18:04

have very little to do with the reality

18:07

of whether there's a demand for this , whether

18:09

it's a viable thing for you to do , and

18:11

you can kind of just put those

18:13

feelings to the side after a while

18:16

. Most of them are just things that are coming

18:18

in your not self , of

18:20

your undefined centers anyway , so you

18:22

don't really want to listen to them . If I

18:24

listened to my undefined heart , I would be

18:26

stuck doing jobs that I really

18:28

don't enjoy for the rest of my life , because it

18:30

would probably be telling me that I was cringe

18:33

and weird to put all this stuff out there , when

18:35

in reality it's not cringe

18:37

and weird . I've had a successful business for

18:39

almost five years , and

18:41

the things that I create make a lot of people

18:43

very happy and add a lot of value to their lives

18:45

. It's just not for me to know

18:47

that . For me , it's best

18:50

to stay focused on doing

18:52

what I love , honoring my sacred responses

18:55

and being open to others , showing me that what

18:57

I have is valuable , which has been

18:59

the case because I've been able to continue

19:01

to have a business . So , to sum it up , do

19:03

you have to monetize everything

19:05

that you love ? Absolutely not

19:08

. It's not necessary . If it doesn't feel right

19:10

for you , you don't have to do it . But

19:12

if you're sitting there thinking , man , I would

19:14

really love to spend all day doing

19:16

this . One thing . I truly do

19:19

feel and this is not just a

19:21

belief , this is also something

19:23

that I have actually witnessed firsthand

19:25

like it has been proven to me

19:28

on the earth plane that

19:30

there are ways , especially

19:32

armed with knowledge of your human design

19:34

, to do them in a way where

19:37

you are well compensated , you still

19:39

have fun , you're really living

19:41

your dream life of doing things that you

19:43

love . This is absolutely my reality

19:46

, and I don't think I'm an exceptional person

19:48

this way . I think there are a lot of people

19:50

experiencing this , not as many as there could

19:53

be , but they're growing in numbers

19:55

. As we figure these things out . The

19:57

fun doesn't have to get sucked out of everything

19:59

that you enjoy , but , at the same time

20:01

, you also don't have to monetize

20:03

everything you enjoy . So I think it's just a journey

20:05

of figuring out what are those things that you

20:08

do want to monetize and what are

20:10

the things that you just want to keep for yourself

20:12

as something that is always a fun

20:14

, passion , project or hobby . And

20:16

again , I think a lot of these tools that

20:18

I talked about here can help you do that . So

20:21

, yeah , definitely stay connected . This

20:23

is very much something that's at the center

20:25

of the Glow Up app

20:27

and community that I am building . I

20:29

am hoping to release this sometime

20:32

in October and it will basically

20:35

be a library

20:37

of all of the courses

20:40

I've created over the years , nicely

20:42

updated , along with , like

20:44

new live courses that we'll be doing

20:46

together , a community on Discord

20:49

, as well as a library of human

20:51

design information that we'll be building

20:53

with all of the content available

20:56

in the new mobile app that I built last

20:58

month . So if any of this is of interest to

21:00

you , make sure you're on my email

21:02

list Link is down below or you can

21:04

sign up at puregeneratorscom . And

21:06

yeah , I am particularly interested in

21:08

this mindset work . I think it is the barrier

21:11

to so many of us living out our design

21:13

. Doing this mental deconditioning is such

21:15

a game changer for everybody . So that will

21:17

definitely be one of the first , if not the

21:19

first , topic we cover as part of this

21:22

big glow up . So thank

21:24

you everyone and I'll talk to you next time .
