1:58
impressive and her Levin's book expect
2:01
magic is coming out in the fall so
2:04
without further ado I would like to
2:06
bring in Diana Wentworth hello Diana how
2:10
are you I'm so excited to be with
2:12
thank you for inviting me I'm just I'm
2:16
I really am thrilled and I know that I
2:18
told you but I was going to ask you this
2:19
question so the first thing I like to
2:21
ask my guests is what is your little
2:24
white light well who knew that I would
2:29
be at 76 years old still just juicy and
2:34
enthusiastic and inventing new
2:36
creativity and coming up with new
2:39
projects and I just became a life coach
2:43
last year you know I mean it's just
2:44
amazing and I didn't expect it but I
2:47
don't think I didn't expect it either
2:49
because I've never pictured myself just
2:52
getting to gold to be creative at least
2:54
well you know you're an inspiration to
2:56
me I'm sure you're an inspiration to
2:58
many many people and it doesn't matter
3:01
how old we are we can still do what we
3:03
want to do and you are a living example
3:06
of that and you know what I forgot to do
3:08
I forgot to do my reveal so I'm just
3:09
going to take a couple of seconds I'm
3:11
going to put my head down so you can see
3:13
Mike my hair ok good oh yeah a good
3:16
color yeah I hope well I hope so I'm
3:19
gonna cut a couple inches off and let it
3:21
grow in yeah I'm loving it as everyone
3:24
out there knows I totally love this so
3:26
here's the question how can I expect
3:28
magic no matter my age so when we say
3:31
magic what are you talking about Diana
3:33
I'm talking about serendipity and living
3:38
in the state of receptivity and
3:40
expectancy and having a vibration of
3:45
just knowing that we're being led but
3:48
you know like Rumi the poet Rumi says
3:50
follow the thread of what you truly love
3:52
it will not lead you astray and I have
3:56
done this all my life
3:57
I have always been very tuned in and
3:59
would do journaling and ask kind of
4:02
quintessential questions and I find that
4:05
the most magical things happen there's
4:07
really no explanation for the things
4:08
that happen but I continually meet
4:13
really exciting people who offer
4:16
different opportunities and it's like
4:19
stepping stones or being put in front of
4:21
me and I expect that to happen so I
4:24
think it's a vibration
4:26
of expectancy and receptivity just being
4:29
open to it and you know we were
4:31
discussing this before we went live
4:33
about the whole mindset thing and it
4:35
tooks when you expect something to
4:36
happen you can actually envision it and
4:40
it move and and it's it's such a great
4:44
thing because if you put negativity of
4:46
there guys that's what you're going to
4:47
get back you're going to get back the
4:48
negativity we're going to go back to
4:50
magic so how does magic show up in our
4:54
each individual lives what do you think
4:58
how do you think it shows up are you
5:00
asking me I'm asking you okay I thought
5:02
you were asking your viewers it shows up
5:05
for instance my husband Ted and I love
5:07
road trips would go on these long road
5:10
trips because we live in the desert and
5:11
it gets too hot in the summer so we does
5:16
surrender because we don't actually have
5:18
a plan we stay someplace the next
5:21
morning we say okay where should we go
5:22
now which direction and we got led to a
5:25
little town called Ashland Oregon which
5:27
we fell in love beautiful eyes and
5:29
thought now that would be the place that
5:31
we want to be in fact here's my gorgeous
5:33
husband Ted wage everybody Teddy hi Ted
5:37
so we thought how can we be here and
5:41
magically I had I wanted to connect with
5:44
a woman who wrote who had a fabulous
5:46
restaurant called Morning Glory
5:49
I just walked into this restaurant and
5:51
felt like I was in my grandmother's home
5:52
and it just felt so good and magically a
5:56
friend of mine knew the owner and
5:58
introduced us and so I offered to write
6:01
the foreword for her cookbook and now
6:03
we're heading up there for two weeks in
6:05
Ashland and I get to sit in her kitchen
6:07
and watch the magic in her kitchen and
6:09
write about it so you know I mean things
6:12
like that happen continually that's
6:15
magic now I want to ask our guests
6:17
anyone that's listening right now and
6:19
put it in the comments and we can put it
6:21
up there and even here on replay go
6:23
ahead and put it in the comments how
6:24
does magic show up in your life you know
6:27
I posted something the other day Diana
6:29
about sometimes things just when you
6:32
least expect it everything happens at
6:34
the same time right and and our goal is
6:36
I think is to actually just jump in
6:40
and do it because it's there right then
6:42
how do you feel about this when when we
6:45
put this out there all these great
6:47
things that we want to happen and they
6:49
start happening all at one time what do
6:53
you do about that how much can you
6:56
you know I I spring up my mirror every
6:59
morning and I say something to be
7:01
effective today's the happiest day of my
7:03
life and I say that every morning I tend
7:06
you know just sets up that vibration and
7:09
amazing things happen so you have a new
7:12
book coming out and and it's about magic
7:15
what's the title of the book and tell us
7:17
a little bit about what's gonna be in
7:18
that book it's called expect magic and I
7:22
have been creating women's circles where
7:25
I love to facilitate women's circles and
7:27
have women who are heart centered women
7:30
show up and there's no charge for it but
7:33
what happened what they come there they
7:35
expect to meet people and just observe
7:38
the synchronicity that happens between
7:41
them and it's been unbelievable for
7:43
everybody who's ever attended and I
7:45
would love to have these going in every
7:47
city so I'll be sharing stories about
7:49
that I'll be sharing practices that I
7:51
use with my coaching clients about how
7:54
to move out of a mood that is spiraling
7:58
down and catch it right away and raise
8:01
that marude that that's so important to
8:04
catch it within like 15 seconds or so
8:06
before it goes too far and starts
8:07
attracting like thoughts and how to
8:12
visualize you know there's a wonderful
8:14
book called into the magic shop which I
8:17
really recommend to your listeners about
8:21
a doctor who came from absolute poverty
8:24
and became incredibly gifted and he
8:28
ended up founding the department of
8:30
compassion at Stanford University
8:32
through these magical things that happen
8:34
just by as you said visualizing everyday
8:38
the beauty that they want to bring into
8:41
their lives as if it's already occurred
8:43
I love that I'm gonna put some comments
8:45
up Joey said today is the best day ever
8:50
so that was the comment that's coming
8:53
the mirror and looking at yourself we
8:55
have a friend Lisa Lamont who talks
8:57
about mirror love and she actually does
8:59
that and she knows and she encourages
9:01
all of us to do that we have another
9:03
comment from a Mary Jo she says she
9:05
loves that idea thank you so much and
9:08

10:24
self-published was right after I had a
10:26
heart attack and that heart attack was a
10:30
kind of a wake-up call to me is how I
10:32
was ignoring my heart so I really became
10:35
very focused on listening to my heart
10:38
and I wrote a book called love your
10:40
heart follow the red thread to a heart
10:42
centered life and I self-published that
10:47
for the American Heart Association and
10:48

that link that's very generous of you
11:07
I really really appreciate it love
11:09
sharing any other thoughts that you want
11:11
to share about magic and how we can
11:14
incorporate it into our lives and make
11:17
magical any last thoughts well I I
11:20
really think that you know our thoughts
11:22
are so important it is so important to
11:25
monitor them all the time because you
11:28
know they're either coming from ego
11:30
which is when you're trying to control
11:31
things and make things happen a certain
11:33
way or their their heart center their
11:36
soul center thoughts and those soul
11:38
centers thoughts seem to be the ones
11:40
that have the vibration that attract
11:42
like thoughts and people you know have
11:45
you ever walked into a market you're in
11:46
a bad mood you know I'm just like people
11:48
cannot get far enough away from you
11:51
right if you want you're open and
11:53
friendly and complimentary it's like you
11:56
spark their day yes it might it might
11:59
mean the world to them that you notice
12:03
them and say something kind and I think
12:06
that that is the way if we could live
12:08
our life that way and not get hooked by
12:10
our old wounds and our old you know you
12:13
can't drive along looking in the
12:14
rearview mirror you can't any time that
12:17
we spend you know ruminating about all
12:20
the old baggage and this stuff we all
12:22
have those wounds is a step forward and
12:27
I am hundred techniques that I love to
12:30
share with my client I really love what
12:32
you're saying one of the things that I
12:33
try to do and sometimes it makes the
12:35
people around me crazy I smile at
12:37
everyone I go through a tollbooth
12:38
I ask the guy at the Tollbooth how are
12:40
you doing today and I smile I go through
12:43
the market to check out how was your day
12:45
today and sometimes they're so startled
12:47
that somebody's actually having a
12:48
conversation rather than just doing
12:50
their business and getting out of there
12:52
and it becomes for me I try to do that
12:54
every single day I'm gonna actually put
12:57
another comment up there Christine says
12:59
that's exactly how I shop please and
13:02
thank you and random compliments I love
13:05
