Taneesa Williamson Gabby is set to tour Australia this coming month for a special one-day workshop, coaching women in business to live a life they have dreamt of with unscripted real-time coaching and live Q&A.
Gabby Bernstein, a highly respected spiritual teacher and accomplished #1 New York Times best-selling author, has been recognised by none other than Oprah Winfrey as a “next-generation thought leader”. With nine bestselling books under her belt, including The Universe Has Your Back, Super Attractor, and her latest release Happy Days: The Guided Path from Trauma to Profound Freedom and Inner Peace, Bernstein is a prominent figure. Gabby is a highly desirable keynote speaker, whose message of inner peace strikes a chord with diverse audiences.
We caught up with Gabby ahead of her tour to learn more about what she has to offer:
Gabby, you call yourself a ’Spirit Junkie’, can you explain what that means?
A Spirit Junkie is someone who fully embraces their unique spiritual connection and uses them to be a force for good in the world. When we love and accept ourselves, we shine brightly and that energy radiates outward – encouraging others to do the same.
Are you able to help people that aren’t spiritual (yet)?
Yes! One of my favourite daily practices is something I call the “Daily Design” method, and you do not need to be spiritual to practice it. Each morning, when you wake up, ask yourself these four questions:
How do I want to feel today?
Who do I want to be today?
What do I want to receive today?
What do I want to give today?
You don’t have to be spiritual to practice this. By caring about how you feel and directing your focus toward positive visualisations as you answer these questions, you allow the universe to support you. The more you practice good-feeling thoughts, the more your ability to receive grows.
It’s a subtle practice, but it can create radical change in your life. The universe is always responding to your energy. Practice this method for the next 40 days and expect major life shifts.
Being a female business owner presents a lot of challenges, how can manifesting help someone’s career/professional path?
Manifesting is a creative process that starts with aligning yourself with the energy of the universe. This process allows you to work with the universe to co-create an experience that elevates your spirit and the spirit of the world. A lot of people think manifesting is about getting what you want, but it’s actually about becoming a match for what you desire. Your energy attracts its likeness.
Manifesting becomes effortless when we put in the work to align our energy and allow the universe to support us. This inner work, my journey to sobriety and happiness, is what I cover in my book “Happy Days: The Guided Path from Trauma to Profound Freedom and Inner Peace”. It’s my most powerful book on manifesting so far.
What would you tell someone who feels stuck in a situation/a certain way of life?
No matter what the situation, we have the power to choose our own perspective on our circumstances. We can choose to show up every day looking for solutions rather than problems. We can choose to be mindful and conscious of how our actions affect others.
It’s easy to feel powerless. This is a time when we want to really become aware of the ways we’re stuck in our feelings of helplessness. Here are some methods I’ve used to reclaim my inner power when the outer world is unsteady.
Be conscious of your own energy.
When you begin to pay attention to how your thoughts and words affect your energy, you can start to see how that energy affects every corner of your life.
Don’t be afraid to ask the universe for help.
When you become humble enough to truly ask the Universe for support, you will get it. But you have to stay committed to asking.
Seek relief, rather than solutions.
When you make happiness your priority over being right and seeking solutions, you can instantly return to an energy of ease.
Practice presence when possible.
Try the 1-minute breath to reconnect to the power of breathing anytime you need it.
- Breathe in through your nose for 5 seconds.
- Hold your breath for 5 seconds.
- Exhale through your mouth for 5 seconds.
- Repeat for 1 minute.
Fear and risk aversion may hold a lot of women back, how can we overcome this?
What we believe we will receive, therefore, the more we lean into high vibe thoughts and feelings the more we’ll attract what we want.
In my book “The Universe Has Your Back”, I Wrote:
The key to trusting in the Universe’s plan is to let go of all outcomes. When we get hung up on how something “should” turn out, then we disconnect with the flow of universal guidance. The energy behind a “should” mentality is controlling and manipulating. The Universe does not align with that energy. It’s when we let go of the outcome that we open up our perceptual worldview and allow ourselves to be led.
Can women have it all, i.e. a flourishing career and a happy family with children?
Absolutely! We are 100% capable of co-creating our reality. It’s not that we won’t have difficult experiences, but when we develop a strong inner strength and spiritual connection, we can show up for the tough stuff with grace and possibility.
When we choose to seek solutions rather than problems, our life’s path totally transforms and invisible doors open for us — we can feel supported no matter what. We are what’s known as super attractors!
