The Power to Transform Your Life

Claire Zammit: Hello! Hello everybody. Welcome. This is Claire. I’m so excited to be
with you today as we dive into Unlocking Power Center One. This is really when the
magic begins in our process of awakening this new operating system.

Today’s session is going to be very interactive. I want to invite you, if you have a pen
and paper, to have it with you. You’re going to be able to go back and listen to this
session again and the different exercises in the session and go even deeper. But if
you are somewhere today where you can really have space and privacy, I just want to
encourage you to close the door, create a sacred time and space.

We are going to go deep.

As always, we’re going to start with an opening centering meditation. If you’re

somewhere where it’s safe to do so, I invite you to close your eyes and allow your
awareness to drop down into your body.

Imagine that you are making your way into our virtual meeting room today.

Becoming aware of our global circle coming together with a profound level of
commitment to ourselves and our intentions; connecting to the deeper desires,
standing for the greater possibility of our lives, and just making your way into the
circle today wherever you feel moved to sit, take your seat.

Take a nice deep breath all the way down into your hips, down into your legs, down
into the soles of your feet and into the earth, connecting with this deeper, wider
center where you can access the full power and resources of yourself as the adult
woman that you have grown to be.

Allow your awareness to expand outward to the edges of the room, recognizing that
you are held by a field and a force of life that’s greater than you ...

That all of life is supporting you to bring forward your gifts, your greatness, your
brilliance that you alone are holding ...

You have access to the wisdom, the resources, the strength; everything you need to

realize the greatest possibility of your life ...

Taking a breath into this deeper, wider center where you can know and experience a
greater truth of who you are.

There’s even a part of you that has access to wisdom beyond your life experience.

Expanding your awareness to consciously join the other women in the circle in an
intention to be amplifying our power today together.

And for our time together, we’re simply grateful. We say Yes and Thank You, and so it
is and so it shall be.

Let’s join our voices and un-mute the lines, and hear the sounds of our course
community.

Hello!

Women: Many, many blessings. Yes! Woo! Hello! Woo!

CZ: So great to hear your voices! Welcome!

Welcome to Session Two. We are so excited to be together. Today is the day we are
going to break through the patterns that have been holding us back up until now.
The inner glass ceilings on our potentials.

Let’s get started on Unlocking Power Center One: The Power To Transform Your
Life.

The whole context for the course is, what you’re feeling as a deeper possibility for
your life for who you could be as a person, for your creativity, for your gifts to impact
others—how do we get what is inside of us outside of us?

Being able to manifest or create or bring forth these higher potentials, whether it’s
love or life purpose, health or wealth, the first step is to not rush out and start doing.

Inside of a Western power system, a masculine power system, the impulse is to want
to move into action. I need to start doing. I want to create something, so I need to start
doing.

The Power to Transform Your Life

We’ve been trying to strategize and figure out how we can get this potential.

Now, many of us have rejected the masculine system and we have kind of gone into a
disempowered feminine worth. Like, “Well, I’m just going to wait. I’m going to hand it
over to a higher power, and whatever will be, will be in my life.” Right?

So we’ve been controlling or we’ve been waiting for something to happen.

But with the feminine system of power, we want to move into creating.

And the first and most powerful thing that we can do—it’s not to move into action, it’s
not to wait—is to remove the barriers to receiving that which we wish to create.

The primary barriers to being able to create the things we desire in our lives are
within us.

Particularly for women, it’s these old stories from our personal history and our family
of origin, about us not being enough, not being wanted, not being lovable.

It’s also a series of collective stories in our culture—the collective story about who we
are and our power, and who we are to have money and wealth. Who we are to be
visible and take up space and be successful. Who we are to be able to lead, who we
are to be able to contribute, who we are to be able to have a voice.

So many of these old, limiting stories are not your story; they are part of our collective
story.

Specifically, the primary inner barriers to receiving those things that we desire, and
to be able to show up in the world in ways that match our higher possibilities, are a
deeper sense of our self, or our identity. Our sense of who we are and what is or isn’t
possible for us.

That’s what we’re going to identify and break through.

The key to being able to identify and transform these stories, both personal and
collective, is a new relationship with ourselves.

Identity, this core sense of who we are and what’s possible for us, is kept in place
by the way that we talk to ourselves, the way that we listen to ourselves, the way we
relate to ourselves. And this is what keeps the mechanisms in place.

Today I’m going to show you how to anchor into a new relationship with yourself so
that you can transform these old stories and bring who you are being into alignment
with who you truly are.

Course graduates tell us when they practice what I’m going to share with you today,
in a matter of weeks your external world can completely transform.

Today is the day. Let’s dive in. Let’s get into this.

We started with an intention, what we want to create for the course, whether it’s love,
transforming your relationship with your health or wealth. You are invited to choose
an area of focus for the course.

I want to invite you to think about that right now, what it is that you most are desiring
to create.

If you haven’t been able to set an intention, I invite you today to choose something
very specific that you can focus on. There’s no wrong choice. There’s no wrong place
to start in this process. I encourage you to trust yourself.

Just take a moment. Just connect with that. Take a breath connecting with your
commitment to yourself, the stand that you are to yourself. Connecting with the
desires that you have, the intention that you have. We’re going to work on this area
today.

The first step in our process of Unlocking Power Center One is to awaken to
your power as a creator.

I want to invite you into a reflection: Who or what have you been blaming up until
now as the reason that you can’t succeed in this area, or the reason that you haven’t
been able to create or manifest in this area? Who or what have you been blaming up
until now?

The first level that we look at typically is our circumstances. So, “The reason that I
can’t have the relationship I want is there’s no good men out there,” or “The reason
that I can’t get clients is because of the economy,” or “The reason that I can’t fulfill my
purpose or make a living doing what I love is that I live in a rural area.”

So see – just notice – what are the circumstances that you have been blaming up until
now as the reasons why you haven’t been able to succeed? That’s the first level.

I’m going to share an example as we go through today. I’ve talked a lot in our
introductory events about my pattern of invisibility. Before Feminine Power, I had
such a difficult time in my romantic relationships; I had all kinds of stories about my
circumstances that the kind of man or partner I was looking for, didn’t exist. So, “Men
want this. Men don’t want that.”

That was my story.

The second reason that we blame is our psychology.

You are a very developed woman. You have done a lot of work on yourself, I’m going
to assume.

We kind of know that there’s something in our consciousness that is also creating our
experience, right?

We are pretty clear by now about who did what to whom and who didn’t do what
to whom, and we have been working to try to correct some of these patterns, but
we notice, “Wow, I’m attracting another unavailable man,” or “I’m passed over
for promotion again for someone less qualified,” or there’s a sense of not being
recognized or seen, or you go to visit your family and you find yourself regressing
into old patterns.

We have been very devoted to making a lot of change in our life, but the way we’ve
been working on ourselves has been, in a masculine power paradigm, a lot of
analysis, trying to analyze our feelings, analyze our history. We have been, in many
ways, trying to strategize in our relationships.

We know that somehow there’s a relationship between our consciousness and our
experience.

How many of you can identify with that? You can see there are circumstances you
have been blaming, or you can see, “I can see that there’s something inside of my
consciousness that is creating my experience.”

Some of us might be evolved where we’re not doing that, and we’re doing
something else.

These are normal and natural places to be looking, as to try to understand and make
sense of our experience and our struggles.

The thing is, there’s no access to the power that we need to break through these
barriers by looking at our circumstances or in this kind of analysis.

It’s not to say that your circumstances aren’t challenging and there might be
constraints.

And you might see in your reflection into your psychology, that there are things
within you. “Well, you know, I’m just not good enough,” or “I’m not wanted,” or “I’m
not all of these things, and that’s the reason why.” Neither of these places, either
blaming our circumstances or blaming ourselves, blaming our psychology – none
of these places are where we’re going to find the power to create and fulfill on our
potentials.

You’re never going to find the power to realize your potential by giving your
energy to these conversations.

A lot of the conversation about awakening our power has to do with shifting our
attention and looking at the conversations that we can be inside of.

The only conversation that’s going to give you access to the power to change
your life is one of radical self-responsibility, or, I’m going to even use the phrase
empowered responsibility, where you have access to the power to create change.

The first place to look at to shift this pattern: What can we be responsible for as the
source of our experience in this area? How has this experience been generated
through us and through our own consciousness? How does it actually occur?

Let’s take a look.

Biologists have determined that 80 percent of what goes into creating what we
call our “experience” comes from information already in our brain, and only 20
percent is actual sensory data that we take in from the outside world.

So, 80 percent of this experience is coming from our own interpretive lens, our core
beliefs about ourselves, about others and about the larger world, and about what is
and isn’t possible.

For most of us, these lenses, these core beliefs, were formed at a stage in our lives
where we had very limited capacity to understand the world or to make meaning.

The purpose of childhood, in many senses, is to discover who we are and what is or
isn’t possible so we can adopt that to survive. So our conditioning, our programming,
is oriented toward being able to survive.

When we were much younger, we made conclusions about who we are and what is
or isn’t possible. For example, if you have a father who is not deeply present and able
to mirror you and reflect an awareness of you because he’s busy or he’s distracted,
most likely you could have made the meaning that “I’m not wanted” or “I’m not
wanted by men.” That experience becomes a belief about others.

Other people are the source of love in my life. Other people can decide whether or
not I’m worthy. It’s not possible for me to ever get my needs met.

From these experiences when we’re young, we draw conclusions about who we
are that forms a matrix of identity through which we then go on to interpret and
respond to life.

That was my story in relationship with men, this sense of, “I’m not wanted.” In that
world, that meant that I could never really be present or visible, and I needed to have
a chameleon-like self: who I needed to be to get love, inside of the story, “I’m not
wanted.”

Of course, when a person is not in their own center and they are trying to figure out
who they are, or who they need to be to get love from other people, that becomes
really repelling. So that behavior then creates evidence for it being the truth, and
reinforces the identity.

Life—our experience—is really happening through us. It’s not happening to us.

In a pattern of invisibility, for example, you might have had parents who were very
narcissistic and completely self-absorbed, so you drew the conclusion that you are
invisible. Or if there was violence in your early life, that it’s not safe to be seen. These
are the experiences that shape our identity and shape our sense of self.

Unless we discover how we’re making meaning, how we’re interpreting and how
we’re responding to our experiences, we won’t access the power to really evolve
beyond these stories.

These stories are truly the inner glass ceiling on the possibilities of our lives.

See if you can begin to identify that for you.

Try to identify or name your experience and the core pattern that has been in the way
of you being able to manifest or create in this area of your life.

Think about what actually happens in your attempts to create in this area of your life.
What actually externally, outside of yourself?

What’s the pattern? What actually happens again and again?

You put yourself out there and nobody shows up.

You put yourself out there for a workshop and you’re a teacher or a coach, and
nobody registers.
You put effort into something and it doesn’t end up bearing any fruit.
You go out with men and they are unavailable.
You meet men and they are attracted to you and you’re not attracted to them.

What’s is the pattern that happens in this area?

See if you can see it and name it. I’d love to invite someone who has real clarity about
your pattern just to share about this.

CZ: Melony, hi.

Melony: Hi, Claire.

CZ: Great to have you with us.

Melony: Thank you.

CZ: What is it that you are wanting to create in your life?

Melony: I’m wanting to create a really fulfilling relationship.

CZ: Beautiful. What’s that pattern that you can see comes up as you make an attempt
to create that?

Melony: The pattern is, men who come to me, that I have a relationship with, do not
love. Then the other one is, men I do love, I sabotage it, or it doesn’t work.
It comes from a decision, Love is unavailable for me, which I made when I was eight.

CZ: Powerful.

Melony: Yeah.

CZ: That’s powerful naming. The first step that we’re doing is we’re making what has
been invisible, visible in our experience. Very powerful. Really, really excellent work.

Melony: Thank you.

CZ: Kina. You want to share yours?

Kina: Well, yes. I’m married for the second time. All along I have not trusted men to
accept me as who I am. I have a very loving husband who does his very best to give
me the feeling that he cares, but all it has to do with a few phrases that I have heard
so many times before, and I will push him away.

CZ: So what you want to create is?

Kina: So I want to create a loving relationship where I know he cares and I care about
him, and it’s open. I don’t have to hide.

CZ: Okay. So you want to create more intimacy? Name that, in terms of what you’re
creating is more intimacy. Yes?

Kina: A deeper, stronger intimacy that is healthy.

CZ: A deeper, stronger intimacy that supports you both to become yourselves fully.
Right? You can connect with the desire of what it is. Beautiful.

Kina: Yeah.

CZ: So the pattern that comes up is that you show up in ways that push him away
without intending to.

Kina: Yeah. I will not tell him what’s going on when something happens. I’m an
intuitive. So if I’m dealing with something, I will push him away instead of saying, “I
am dealing with an issue with a client. I am dealing with something.” I will not let him
know that I am not there. I will act like I’m there.

CZ: Okay. Wow. That’s powerful to see that, right? So you’re seeing, how is it

 Unlocking Power Center One:

happening through me? What are the behaviors that you do to push him away?
If I was watching a movie of Kina pushing away ... what’s your husband’s name?

Kina: Jeff.

CZ: So if I was watching a movie of Kina and Jeff, what do you do? What does it look
like when you’re pushing Jeff away?

Kina: I would walk in the other room and start reading a book, or I will get on the
computer and, instead of going to him and saying, “Why don’t we have some time
today?” I will ignore what he’s doing and I’ll focus only on him for a little while. Then
I’ll walk away and I’ll do something else.

And if he’s saying something, I’ll react. I’ll explode at him and defend myself, but he’s
not asking me to defend, I just act like I have to defend myself.

CZ: Great. So much clarity. Wow. This is really powerful. Okay. So have a look. What is
it? In the area that I want to create, what’s the pattern that actually happens?

And see if you can see ... there’s going to be a moment in that pattern where it feels
painful.

The moment when the breakdown happens, or you’re alone, or you feel
disconnected, or there’s a failure, or something else happens. Take a moment, and
just breathe into your body. Place one hand on your body to the feeling that comes
up.

Name the feeling that you’re having when this pattern happens as an “I Am”
statement.

So,

I am not enough.
I’m too much.
I’m not safe.
I am not wanted.
I’m not seen.

See if you can name the feeling as an “I Am” statement.

Take a deep breath, and have a lot of love and kindness for yourself. You’re creating
a space just to connect with this and make it visible and conscious.

Now, see if you can name the belief about whoever the others are; if it’s men, the
belief about men. If it’s clients or coworkers, see if you can name it.

Men are . . .
Others are . . .

So, this is the belief about yourself. This is the belief about men or other people.

Finally, see if you can name the belief about life.

In a world where I’m this and others are that, what is or isn’t possible for you?

In a world where I am not wanted and other people are the source of love in my life, I
can never be myself.

So that’s the belief about life – that’s your Identity Matrix. This core sense of yourself,
about others and about life, that’s a matrix of belief.

We’re going to come back and tend to that part of yourself that has been stuck in this
lesser story of who she is up until now.

But now, I want to invite you just to shake that off. Having named that, now just shake
it off, come back and to connect to, and even ask yourself the question,

“What’s the best thing about being my current age compared to the age of this
younger self?”

It might be

I have access to wisdom, to resources, to power ...

What’s the best thing about your current age?

OK, make some noise, Feminine Power. Make some noise!

Community: Ahh! Woo! Woo-hoo!

CZ: All right. OK. We’re going to go back in there in just a moment. But it’s really
important when you’re reflecting on yourself as the source of your experience, or
you’re uncovering these core identities, to be loving and kind to yourself.

It’s not kind to reflect on yourself as the source from the emotional center of this old
belief.

If you’re emotionally in the center of, I’m not lovable or I’m not safe, or I’m not seen,
that’s not a place that you want to be reflecting on how you’re creating this in your
life.

It’s very important that when we’re reflecting and beginning to see and get
curious about ourselves, that we’re anchored in the most powerful parts of
who we are, the parts of us that have wisdom, that have power, that have
perspective.

We’re going to do that right now.

Think about that part of you that can show up powerfully for a friend or a loved one,
or elsewhere in your life where you are in your most powerful self.

Where in your life do you feel most powerful?

It might be at work. If you’re an attorney, it might be when you’re making closing

arguments. It might be in your garden. It might be as parent. It might be when you’re
hiking or doing something physical.

Where do you feel the most powerful in your life?

I invite you to put yourself into that place where you feel most powerful, to take a
moment and just breathe into your body. Stand as you’re standing when you feel
most powerful, breathe as you’re breathing, listen as you’re listening. Putting yourself
into that most powerful place, and beginning to get really curious from this place of
power.

Can you begin to see:

How do I respond to what’s happening inside of this story about who I am and who
others are, or what is or isn’t possible?

Copyright © Claire Zammit 2015. 12

 Unlocking Power Center One:

Inside of those assumptions and conclusions, how do I show up?

How do I respond in ways that have been co-creating my experience up until now?

How have I been showing up in ways that have been co-creating my experience?

See if you can see even one thing about this.

Who can see one thing really clearly about yourself as a creator of this experience?

Okay. Michele. Hi.

Michele: Hi.

CZ: What has been your pattern, and what is the identity, and then what can you see
about this?

Michele: Are you talking about the pattern of where I feel most powerful?

CZ: What’s the pattern that happens?

Michele: Oh, the previous pattern. OK. So my pattern is: In my relationships with
my boyfriend, I am not authentic. I am not my authentic self and I don’t own my
feelings because I have this Identity Matrix that tells me, “Well, you’re not going to
find somebody who fits you so you need to just tuck that under. I mean, you’re too
different. He’s like this, and that’s just the way he is.” If I say something about it, then I
may not find anybody else, I think. Is that what you’re asking?

CZ: Yeah. So. what is it that actually happens?

Michele: Basically, if we are relating, conversing, he may say something that really
turns me off, and it’s just like we’re not on the same wavelength, but I’m afraid to say,
“Hey, I didn’t like the way that felt.” Or, “When you said this I felt kind of separated
from you, or that kind of turned me off.”

I have a fear that creeps in that prevents me from being authentic in that moment.
I’ll bring it up later [when] he’s like, “Why are you... is there something wrong?” And
eventually he will get it out of me.

CZ: Yeah. Were you able to name the belief about yourself?

Copyright © Claire Zammit 2015. 13

 Unlocking Power Center One:
Module 2 Course Module Two Transcript
The Power to Transform Your Life

Michele: Yeah. I think the belief is that – well, I have so many beliefs. I think why I
don’t say it is because I feel, like, “Well, what if it comes out wrong? What if I say it and
he is offended, or he is hurt?”

CZ: Right. If you breathe into the part of you that is feeling that, and name that feeling
as an “I Am” statement.

Michele: Name that feeling of the what statement? Oh, an “I Am” statement.

CZ: “I Am” statement. Right. So this is how we identify.

Michele: I am afraid that . . .

CZ: I Am. What is it about who you are?

Michele: Okay. I am offensive. I am too harsh. I am insensitive.

CZ: Take a breath. Be able to feel it. See if you can properly name it. So, I am...
What is it about who you are that has him show up in this way, or respond to you in
this way?

Michele: What is it about who I am that made me this way? Is that what you’re
asking?

CZ: No, no, no. Sorry, I’m not being clear. If you step into the moment where
the pattern happens, see if you can name the feeling in your body as an “I Am”
statement.

Do you have a sense of that?

Michele: Yes.

CZ: Yeah.

Michele: The statement that I said before, I am, I think, insensitive or something.
Does that qualify?

CZ: Well, does it feel true to you? When you’re properly naming this feeling, “I am . . .”
I wouldn’t imagine that a younger girl or a little girl would say, would make meaning
“I’m insensitive.” It sounds like an adult meaning. What’s the meaning in your body?

Michele: OK.

CZ: If you actually connect with the self in your body ...

Michele: In my body I feel, like, maybe it’s a fear in the pit of my stomach, that
insecure feeling that is probably is an “I am.”

CZ: Yes. So breathe into the insecure feeling.

Michele: I’m not worthy.

CZ: Yeah, so that’s it.

Michele: Yeah.

CZ: That’s it right there. If you breathe into the insecure feeling, I’m not worthy. OK,
and just shaking that off.

How can you see, Michele, that you show up in ways that actually create the sense of
being devalued? There’s an experience of being devalued. That’s the pattern, of not
being valued. The core belief underneath it is, “I’m not worthy.”

How can you see yourself showing up in ways where you’re devaluing? Where you’re
participating in creating a situation where you’re devalued?

Michele: Yeah. Well, my internal dialogue can be very judgmental in those moments,
and very harsh to myself.

CZ: Right, which causes you to show up how?

Michele: So it’s causing me to show up as . . .I mean, or just not show up. Just to run
or just to want to get away from the situation so I don’t have to deal with it, maybe.

CZ: For example, you never make requests. You never assert what you need. You
never draw boundaries, right?

Michele: I do sometimes, but not all the time.

CZ: Yeah. I don’t know your situation. I’m just trying to give examples about the
things that we do. What we’re looking for is the relationship between this sense of

Copyright © Claire Zammit 2015. 15

 Unlocking Power Center One:
Module 2 Course Module Two Transcript
The Power to Transform Your Life

ourselves and ways that we show up that create our experience.

Michele: Right, right. So I have to own what I’m feeling in order to show up, because
otherwise I just kind of don’t show up.

CZ: Right. Well, that’s disappearing, right?

Michele: Exactly.

CZ: Right? You just disappear, right? Inside of that I just disappear. As a result of that,
you can see how the disappearing co-creates that dynamic that reinforces the sense
that you are not valuable or worthy.

Michele: Right.

CZ: Right? So what we’re looking for is the relationship between the beliefs and then
the behavior and how you’re showing up, and how that’s creating our experience.

Here’s the thing: Life is responding and other people are responding to who
you’re being, not to who you truly are.

So to break through these inner glass ceilings, we want to bring who you’re being
and how we’re showing up inside of the truth of who we are. Right now your
behaviors and who you’re being and how you’re showing up are coming from the
center of I’m not worthy, right?

Michele: Right.

CZ: So that creates evidence for that being true.

Michele: Right.

CZ: Right? So that’s the thing we’re trying to identify, right?

Michele: Yes.

CZ: It’s, like, “Oh, what a relief!” Right? So life is responding to who I’m being, not
who I truly am, and when we bring who we’re being into alignment with who we truly
are, other people begin to respond in a completely different way.

Michele: Right.

CZ: That’s really when and how we’re gonna shatter our glass ceiling.

The first step, where we are, is we identify it. We’re making it conscious. We’re seeing
that it’s not this mysterious thing that’s happening to us. We can see how our

relationships, our experience of life, is actually getting generated through our own
consciousness.

Michele: OK.

CZ: That’s just the first step.

Michele: OK. Yes. Thank you.

CZ: Thank you. This is powerful. This is going to take some practice to fully see.
But this is the first step—getting clear about the pattern and being able to identify
the core underlying matrix of belief, and being able to then see how it’s actually
happening through us.

We’re going to come back to this in just a moment.

So how does this transform? How do we transform this part of us that is stuck in an
old story of who we are?

We have been trying to override a lot of the feelings with analysis, with affirmations,
with trying to think our way out of it.

The truth is, if you look at your experience, you’ll see is that there are two parts of you.
There’s two of you.

There’s a self in your mind that has access to the wisdom and resources of your life
experience. It’s your waking self where spend most of your time.

And there’s a self in your body who has her own experience of life.

When we talk about a relationship with yourself, what I’m talking about is how fluid
and empowered the relationship is between the self that’s in your mind and the self
that’s in your body.

The Power to Transform Your Life

In the place that you’re struggling to manifest or create in, the core belief, this core
sense of who you are, of what is or isn’t possible, is held by the self in your body. She
has her own consciousness. You can’t talk this part of you out of how she feels.

Most of us have been in an adversarial relationship with ourselves, or we have been

disconnected. Either we will be in one self or we will be in another self. We become
this younger self, and that’s all there is.

You can look at your experience of these two selves in your life—it might be at work.

If you ever have had the experience that you’ve offered a promotion, and the self
in your mind is really excited. “Great, I can pay off that credit card debt ... more
leadership ... more power ... more responsibility!”

But the self in your body just feels really sad and depressed, because you really hate
this job and you feel like it’s off-purpose for your life.

Most of us, we don’t know how to reconcile the gap between those two parts of us.
So we’ll either disconnect or we’ll try to talk ourselves out of what we feel.

You go out on a date with a guy, he’s really successful, wealthy, he’s looking for the
marrying kind, he’s kind of attractive, and your mind is saying, “Like him, like him.”
Meanwhile, the self in your body is, like, “I hope he doesn’t try to kiss me.”

What we want to look at is, what’s your relationship between these two parts of you,
the self in your mind and the self in your body.

What’s that relationship? What’s the quality of that relationship? How do you listen to
the self in your body? How do you talk to yourself? How do you respond to different
feelings that you have?

Unless you learn to have an empowered relationship between these different

parts of you, you’re not going to be able to evolve and break through this
pattern that we identified.

This is what Power Center One is about: It’s about learning how to bring these two
parts of us into relationship in an empowered way so that we can engage the part of
us that’s stuck in the old story, and really help her to evolve, help her to awaken, so
that we can show up in new ways that are aligned with the deeper truth of who we
are.

The Power to Transform Your Life

Think about this:

If you imagine the relationship between the self and your mind and the self in your
body was any other relationship, between yourself and another person, what would
the quality of that relationship be? Empowered? Disempowered? Disconnected?
Connected?

Just notice that as a starting point. We’re going to totally transform that right now.

But before we try to change or evolve this pattern, we want to have an experience
of getting into relationship with ourselves in a new way where we can learn to turn
toward and welcome and witness our feelings in a way that will strengthen and
deepen the connection between our two selves.

Most of us haven’t really forged this empowered relationship with ourselves, so we

have no power to influence and evolve our experience.

This is a practice and I encourage you to do it every day this week.

Right now, I invite you for just a moment to put everything to one side, and if it’s
somewhere where it’s safe for you to do so, to close your eyes.

Step back into connecting with that feeling in your body that came up in the center
of your pattern, I’m not good enough. I’m too much. I’m not wanted. Whatever that
feeling was. Just notice where the center of the feeling is in your body, and place one
hand there and breathe into the center of that feeling.

Now ask the question, “How old is this part of me? How old is this part of me that is
centered in this idea about herself?”

Just witness it. She might be 6. She might be 12. She might be 15. If there are two
ages, focus on the youngest age.

Now becoming aware that there’s a self in your body who has sense of who she is,
and ask the question,

What’s the best thing about being my current age? What’s the best thing about being
my current age compared to the age of this younger self?

Connect with this wise, adult self, the self where you feel the most powerful in your

life. The part of you that can show up and be a good friend to others. The part of you
that can hold perspective.

Breathe all the way down into – just taking your awareness – all the way down into
your hips, down into your legs.

There’s a center within you that is deeper and wider than the feelings in your body.

With each breath, deepening and widening this center of awareness in your body,
and just imagine that you are expanding your awareness outward to the edges of the
room.

See if you can access this deeper, wider center.

From here—fully connected to yourself as an adult woman in the place that you feel
most powerful—imagine turning toward the younger self in your body; just bringing
these two parts of you into connection with each other,

Allow the breath to bring the older, wiser part of you that shows up for other people
powerfully and this younger part of you, into connection with each other.

This wise, powerful self is holding, witnessing, the younger self in your body. Just
turning toward ...

This is our Power Practice. Turn toward the self in your body, and ask her, “What are
you feeling?” And listen to the response with love.

Holding her, witnessing her, and even saying your name, “Claire, what are you
feeling?”

And don’t think about the answer. Listen for the answer. Just listen.

Then mirror the answer with love. “I can see that you’re feeling . . .”

There’s no need to fix it. No need to fulfill it. No need to change it in any way.

“I can see that you’re feeling . . .” and just naming whatever is there. Just mirroring
back the response three times.

Then just asking the question, “What do you need?”

The Power to Transform Your Life

Say your name, “Claire, what do you need?”

Mirroring back the response with love, “I can see that you need . . .” and just naming
whatever is there.

No need to fix it. No need to fulfill it. Just mirroring this response from the self in our
body.

This the Power Practice and just notice what happens.

This is really one of the great secrets of transformation:

What you bring into relationship in an empowered way will transform.

Most of us have been turning away from our feelings because we don’t necessarily
know what to do with them or where to go with them. But when we can witness them
and bring them into relationship with the part of ourselves that has the capacity to
witness and hold and to just be present, they will begin to transform.

This is like a building muscle that we’re going to begin to work throughout the
course.

Don’t worry if you didn’t yet have an experience in this short practice. Work with it
every day for a week. It’s going to guide you through this entire practice, and you will
begin to have a different experience of these two parts of you.

OK. We’re going to shake that out. We’re now going to do the rest of our practice to
break through the inner glass ceiling and really begin to create a space that’s outside
of this old story.

Let’s have a shake again and make some noise again. I find it energizing to make
some noise.

Communty: Ah! Woo! Woo!

CZ: Great. OK. We’re making some noise. We’re shaking here.

This is really powerful, right? We’ve heard this idea that beliefs are in our unconscious
but you kind of think, well, where’s my unconscious? How do I influence beliefs that
are in my unconscious?

 Unlocking Power Center One:

The Power to Transform Your Life

All of the feelings in your body that happen outside of your conscious
awareness, that’s your unconscious.

And the way to transform belief has to do with having a relationship with this self in
the body who has her own consciousness.

Let’s begin to have an even deeper experience of this.

This is going to be our core practice for breaking through your inner glass ceiling in
Power Center One. You’re going to have a handout to work with this this week, which
is your Power Center and Power Statement Creation Process. If you have a pen and
paper, keep this next to you as we go through.

Let’s come back to the pattern where we started with at the beginning of the call.

Think about the pattern. This pattern in your life that happens in response to your
efforts to break through. Again, just stepping into that moment where the pattern
happens and placing one hand on your body. Connecting again. Give this feeling a
name as an “I Am” statement.

Ask yourself the question, “How old is this part of me?”

Now notice, How big is the energy that’s being held here?

Just get related to and witness the intensity of the emotion, how big it is, what you’ve
been holding here around this area of your life.

Again, just asking the question, “What’s the best thing about being my current age
compared to the age of this self in my body?”

Breathing all the way down into your hips, connecting to this deeper center where
you can access the wisdom of your life experience.

Allowing this part of you that can powerfully show up for other people, to turn and
connect and witness this younger self, and ask, “What’s the deeper truth?”

“What’s the deeper truth about who I am and what’s possible in this part of my life?”

If your own daughter or somebody that you loved were stuck in this idea about
her not being worthy, not being wanted, not being safe, how would you hold her?

 Unlocking Power Center One:

The Power to Transform Your Life

Connect with the ferocity by which you would challenge that old story, by which you
would stand for the truth for someone you loved.

You’re standing with this part of you, and you’re holding her, and you’re mirroring,
and you’re talking to her the way you would talk to your best friend, the person that
you love and care about. You are standing with the same ferocity.

The deeper truth is, you’re not alone. The deeper truth is that you are lovable. The
deeper truth is, you’re valuable. Your feelings, your needs, your desires matter. The
deeper truth is, we’re made for love, for connection, for intimacy.

Just writing it down.

I want to invite you to create what we call a Power Statement. This is a statement that
anchors and connects you with a deeper truth about who you are and about what’s
possible for you in this area of your life.

The Transformation of Identity Matrix handout is a wonderful resource for you to

work with with these practices as well. It’s going to help you to see and identify the
different beliefs, and there are some wonderful examples of power statements. But I
want to invite you to create your own Power Statement that anchors the deeper truth.

What’s important about the deeper truth and anchoring it is that gives us a new
place to stand. And that is how this pattern will begin to change forever.

And the final part of this is: When you connect to that deeper truth, what’s the new
way for you to show up that would be aligned with that deeper truth?

What’s the new way in your marriage that you can show up that’s aligned with that
deeper truth? What’s the new way in your business that you could show up that’s
aligned with this deeper truth? What’s a new way for you to show up with men that’s
aligned with this deeper truth?

What’s the new way for you to show up?

If you were aligned with that deeper truth in the midst of the pattern you identified or
any breakdown, what new way would you show up?

I just want to do a recap here.

The Power to Transform Your Life

In 20 years of transformational work and mentoring 11,000 women through this

process, and working on this myself and having really transformed my relationship
patterns, my own professional patterns, so many different areas of my life—I can
tell you that this is the most direct route to breaking through your inner barriers to
receiving that which you desire.

This is the first step in creating with the feminine system.

You’re going to identify the key pattern that shows up in the area of your life that
you’re focusing on. Somewhere want to manifest something in.

You are going to identify what happens over and over again, what that pattern is.
You’re going to reflect on it. You’re going to see it. You’re going to name it.

You are going to identify the underlying matrix of belief or identity that is at the
center of that pattern by connecting with the feeling that comes up, by breathing into
your body.

You’re going to identify the core pattern, the core belief about yourself; your core
belief about others, about men, about women, about clients, about colleagues,
whatever those old stories have been. You’re going to identify that. You’re going to
identify your core belief about life.

Then what you’re going do is practice. You’re going to work with our Power Practice
to really reform and recreate this relationship with yourself so that your adult self,
with access to wisdom, power and resources—the part of you that shows up for other
people—gets into an empowered relationship with the self that’s in your body, the self
that’s holding all of these feelings and emotions.

Work for at least 15 minutes a day for the next week, and preferably for the rest of the
course, with this power practice.

Then, from a place of bringing this part of you into relationship with the part of you
that is stuck in this old story, you are going to connect to the deeper truth just like we
did right here. Connect with the deeper truth. What’s the deeper truth about who you
are, about who men are, about what is or isn’t possible? You’re going to identify the
deeper truth and create a power statement that anchors the deeper truth.

From that place, you’re ready to make the final Power Move, which is to shatter your
inner glass ceiling once and for all!

This is really where this pattern will disappear for you, and never return again. You’re
going to begin to show up in this area of your life in new specific ways that are
aligned with the deeper truth of who you are. When you do that, when you begin
to show up and bring who you are being into alignment with who you are and what
is the deeper truth about your power and possibility in this area of your life, in a
matter of weeks, other people will completely begin to respond to you differently.
Opportunities will open up. Life will recreate itself and start to generate evidence for
you about this being true. How exciting is that?

We don’t have any more time to be on the cushion or be on the couch, or

processing our issues, or blaming our circumstances. It’s really time to awaken
to our power as creators.

We’re going to work with this this week. We’re going to support each other in really
powerful ways this week.

Just remember, like anything, learning how to have an empowered relationship with
yourself in this new way. It’s just like learning how to do anything.

If you think back to the first time you learned how to drive a car or ride a bike, and
the first time you got on skis or you did something new that was outside your comfort
zone, it might have felt disorienting.

But now think about easy and effortless it is for you to now drive or ski or ride a bike.
It happens as naturally as that.

The thing that I know is that learning how to have this empowered relationship with
yourself is no more difficult than learning anything new in this way that you have
demonstrated you already have an ability to do. So just take a breath. Come back
to your intention any time you feel disoriented in the course. Come back to your
attention. Come back to your commitment, and just slow it down and take it one step
at a time, and you will get there.

And remember to reach out as opposed to drop out.

Let’s close with a round of takeaways.

I want to invite you, if you had a big opening or a breakthrough or a clarity, to give
voice to a couple of words or a sentence for the takeaways of what is awakening in
you as we are Unlocking Power Center One.

Let’s just close with a round of takeaways today.

Okay. Let’s hear from Edie.

Edie: Hi.

CZ: Hello. Hi.

Edie: I so saw myself. I am the youngest my family and four older brothers, and I just
brought myself back to the little baby sister, and wow. That was really powerful.

CZ: Thank you. Anya? Just a word...

Anya: I reconnected with the belief I thought I had de-energized years ago, which
was that I was a troublemaker just for being born.

CZ: Wow.

Anya: My history, I had a lot of stuff coming up from my older brother, who didn’t
want me, but I thought I had erased that. It’s back. So my adult self is very much
present, but intermittently. What has been happening now is that breakthrough of
really knowing that I can be . . .

CZ: Wow. Powerful.

Anya: Yeah. My thought is kind of all tingling because of that. Thank you.

CZ: Thank you.

Sarah, your breakthrough?

Sarah: Hi. First I was with my 9 year old. She was feeling abandoned. Then it shifted
and I was with my 14 year old. She was feeling like, you have to do it all yourself.

CZ: Yeah. Wow.

Sarah: There’s nobody to help. You have to do it all yourself. If you want it to happen,
you have to do it all yourself.

CZ: Wow. Wow. Create a lot of space.

Taking a deep breath with you. Holding that with you, Sarah. Thank you.

Terry? Go right ahead.

Terry: Hi.

CZ: Hi.

Terry: My biggest takeaway from today was a really clear and deep understanding
that all of those gifts and all of the wisdom, and all of the powerful attributes that I
make available to others, I now have a clearer connection on how that is available to
my younger self, who was wounded along the way.

CZ: Wow. Beautiful. Thank you.

Final share here from Hilary. Hilary, go right ahead.

Hilary: Hi. The word that keeps on coming up is trust, that I am trustable. I can trust
myself.

CZ: Wow, beautiful. Thank you.

Thank you so much, everybody.

Again, this is the beginning of our work here with this. We’re going to be working
with this on an ongoing way together in the practices.
