All Up In Your Biz with Yvonne Tchrakian

In this episode, Yvonne sits down with Dr. Jonathan Fisher cardiologist and author of Just One Heart join Yvonne. They discuss how emotions affect the heart. Jonathan shares the latest research which demonstrates that intense emotions can physically change the shape of the heart and lead to heart attack like symptoms. They also discuss the importance of developing and maintaining empathy and connection to others. Johnathan explains that the heart has 4 dimensions – the emotional, physical, social, and spiritual hearts. All 4 play an important role in keeping your heart healthy. KEY TAKEAWAYS The heart is not just about the physical systems like blood flow, stress and other emotions also impacts how it works. Research shows that intense emotions can produce the symptoms of a heart attack. It is called Takotsubo cardiomyopathy or broken heart syndrome. Fortunately, just as stress and loss can break our hearts, positive emotions can help our hearts to function better. Jonathan explains how to tap into this. The fast pace we live at is leading us to lose our connection with others, which is bad for our physical health. Covid can impact the nervous system which plays a role in how the heart functions. The loss and emotional stress people felt are also still impacting some people´s heart health. When you remember something bad that happened it reactivates the physical sensations associated with that pain. Life is short. You can be healthy one day and seriously ill the next. That is why you should do what gives you purpose and meaning. When you manifest or visualise, you are training the neural pathways that affect the way our bodies move and function. It is good for our health. BEST MOMENTS ‘At least 60% of what I see as a heart doctor relates to either unaddressed or poorly addressed underlying stress because of what is going on in the world. ´ ‘We have to learn to listen to our bodies, to sit quietly and tune in.’ ‘It is wise to recognise that and to limit the intake into our nervous system of this information.’   EPISODE AND GUEST RESOURCES Just One Heart by Jonathan Fisher - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Just-One-Heart-Cardiologists-Happiness-ebook/dp/B0D1526W7D Barbara Fredrickson positive and negative emotions research - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20363063/ https://brenebrown.com/ VALUABLE RESOURCES Website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne sits down with Gary Fox who started his podcast as a way to connect with interesting, highly successful people. To say it worked is an understatement. In just 5 years he has reached the point where 310,000+ people download his podcast every quarter . Gary has already interviewed many of the world´s most successful business founders and has attracted some really big sponsors. Gary and Yvonne explain how to get started with podcasting. Including how to overcome your fears, attract the best guests, achieve a good recording, tackle editing and grow a loyal audience. As well as how to monetise your podcast. KEY TAKEAWAYS Right now, podcasting represents a big opportunity, 500 million people regularly listen to them. Yet there are only 400,000 active podcasts. Podcast audiences grow slowly. Start by interviewing people in your network. You're asking your guests and audience for the invaluable gift of their time, so each episode must deliver excellence. It does not matter how much you are offered, if a sponsor is not honest or does not fit in with your brand, say no to them. Look at everything you are asked to do and ask yourself “What is the value of this?” Never try to catch your guests out. When building your business, work hard, but not to the point where you lose yourself or your health suffers. Living a more balanced life helps you to avoid big downs. Try to understand what works for you and don´t ever feel you should do things. Be super careful about how you treat others. BEST MOMENTS ‘Podcasting is a level 1 in terms of difficulty to get started and a level 10 in terms of keeping going. ´ ‘Speed is everything, if you are goanna do it, do it.’ ‘I hate that bro hustle culture.’ ‘Female entrepreneurs are treated extremely poorly.’   GUEST AND EPISODE RESOURCES The Entrepreneur Experiment Podcast - https://www.mrgaryfox.com/podcast https://www.mrgaryfox.com/podcast VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/   HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

For this episode, Yvonne is joined by Nicole Vignola who has worked for many years to make neuroscience tangible for the masses. Enabling them to understand the science behind how their brains are wired so they can stop sabotaging themselves. She is just about to launch her first book REWIRE to provide people with a structured way of doing this. This episode is packed with insights into why we do what we do. Including why siblings often see, and react to, the world in radically different ways. How to weaken the negative pathways that keep us locked in fear and negative behaviour. What compels us to contact our ex, even during a bad break-up and much more. KEY TAKEAWAYS Anyone can rewire their brains to change habits, behaviours and thought patterns. Plasticity works both ways. You can weaken as well as strengthen pathways. So, you can reduce the impact fear is having on you. Because we are hardwired for survival, we naturally pay more attention to the negative.  Social media can be used positively, but when you let it get out of control, it will demotivate you. Your life partner becomes ingrained in your neural network. During a breakup, your brain struggles and constantly wants to check in with them. You can help others, but you can´t change someone else´s brain. Only they can do that. Manifestation helps to block out negativity and keeps you focused and strengthens the right neural pathways. BEST MOMENTS ‘Plasticity works both ways. We can strengthen pathways, or we can weaken them.’ ‘Reframing is being more realistic about the situation.’ ‘Sweat before you scroll.’ ‘I was mimicking the way my mother behaved.’   EPISODE RESOURCES REWIRE by Nicole Vignola (buy anywhere in the world link) - https://geni.us/1sWgaf6 https://www.instagram.com/nicolesneuroscience VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/   HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne sits down with Emma Seppälä, Ph. D who is a Yale lecturer and faculty director, international speaker, and the best-selling author of Sovereign and The Happiness Track. Through those books, she helps people to use the science of happiness to accelerate their success and reclaim full control over all aspects of their lives (sovereignty). She and Yvonne discuss what happiness is, and why it is so elusive. As well as discuss how to teach your children to be happy. This episode is packed with things anyone can do to become happier and improve their lives. KEY TAKEAWAYS There are two types of happiness. The hedonic type gives you a fleeting dopamine high. Eudaimonic happiness, e.g., when you help others, is long-lasting and sustaining. Gratitude matters, it keeps everything in perspective. Self-criticism is self-loathing. If your friend makes a mistake, you sympathize and help them through it, so why is it that when you make a mistake you tear yourself apart? It's not normal to have a toxic relationship with yourself.  Sovereignty is reclaiming your potential, and your right to love yourself. When facing a challenge, don´t ask am I good enough. Instead, ask what do I need. When you say yes to something you don´t want to do, you are saying no to you. Lack of sleep is one of the biggest predictors of suicide. Fear, doubt, and anxiety overshadow intuition.  Be rational but also take note of what your intuition is telling you. Sovereignty requires the courage to go against the grain. When you have a supportive relationship with yourself you become a highly positive influence on others. BEST MOMENTS ‘If you have a life characterized by compassion, by kindness then your happiness levels are also more sustained. ´ ‘It can be hard in the moment, but over time, you reap the rewards.’ ‘Self-criticism leads to anxiety, depression, fear of failure, less willingness to try again.’   GUEST AND EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.emmaseppala.com/the-happiness-track https://www.artofliving.org  VALUABLE RESOURCES Website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this solo episode, Yvonne explains how to make manifestation your lifestyle - your way of being. Doing this keeps your vibration high so that you continue to take the action you need to attract what you want. Yvonne shares the 5-minute routine she follows that enables her to do exactly that. She uses practical everyday examples, which makes it easy to follow the strategies and tips she shares in this episode. KEY TAKEAWAYS Making manifestation a way of life rewires your brain and keeps your vibration high making it easier to get what you are manifesting. Affirmations enable you to tap into the natural process of neuroplasticity to rewire your brain and banish negative thoughts and beliefs. Change your affirmations up based on how you are feeling. Yvonne provides examples to help you to understand how to do this. It can take time to change your thought patterns. Some of them will have been formed in childhood and have been setting the scene for you and impacting your life ever since. Being grateful plays a big role in keeping you positive and balanced. Visualise your short-term goals. Figure out what works for you. Yvonne doesn´t meditate, but some people find it beneficial. Visualise regularly. Yvonne shares how she does it quickly so she can fit it into the spare moments she has. BEST MOMENTS ‘You’ve got to keep that vibration high on a daily basis. ´ ‘Affirmations are so important for rewiring your brain for positivity.’ ‘I 100% believe that anyone can achieve anything when they believe.’ ‘Visualise every day that you're going to achieve your goal just for one minute in snapshots.’   VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne sits down with Caroline Dalton who has been appointed as CEO to one of the world’s most exciting hair product companies. The Kardashian-Jenner crew, Madonna, and Jennifer Lopez are just some of the global superstars who use their products and have their hair cut and cared for by the founder of the brand. Caroline explains the role manifestation played in her getting into that position. This episode is also a must-listen for anyone who wants to grow their brand. In particular, those who want to sell their products in some of the biggest physical stores in the world. For decades, Caroline headed up buying teams for Dunnes and Primark. So, you can be sure that the insider tips she shares will get you noticed, enable you to pitch successfully and use physical retailers to reach more people. KEY TAKEAWAYS Building relationships is key to business success. Maintaining a strong network leads to your being presented with amazing, life-changing opportunities. Remember that the person who holds a junior position today could easily become the decision-maker for a big brand at a later date. Your reputation follows you, so don´t be a d**khead. The right culture is essential for building a strong team that will stick with you. If you have a product that you are selling only online, it makes sense to get it into physical stores too. Choose stores that serve the customers you are targeting.  Be persistent. If you send in samples, follow up to make sure that the person who makes the decisions has seen it. Do your pitch in person. You are the most passionate about your brand.  It is all about relationships. If the person you are pitching to can relate to you and your customer base, they will be more likely to say yes. BEST MOMENTS ‘I think it focuses your mind. It starts to focus you on what you actually want. ´ ‘You fail. It´s actually not that bad, you just start again.’ ‘Most of the people that I have around me, that have been supportive are people that I have worked with before.’   GUEST RESOURCES https://www.linkedin.com/in/caroline-dalton-68b45729/ VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

For this episode, Yvonne is joined by Matt Cooke. He did not believe in anything spiritual, then out of nowhere, he heard the voice of his mother who had passed away 18 months earlier. An experience, that set him on a journey to try to understand how this could happen. He explains how quantum mechanics and physics provided the answer and helped him to understand why manifestation works. Matt and Yvonne explain why they believe that with our thoughts, our feelings, and our beliefs, we absolutely can create our reality. They do this by sharing their own experiences and the details of several scientific studies. Before sharing, in detail, how they personally manifest. KEY TAKEAWAYS Everything is just energy vibrating at different frequencies. When your body's energy vibration changes, you become able to pick up on new types of energy. Quantum mechanics dictates that what we observe (are conscious of) turns energy into physical reality. Where our focus goes impacts our outcomes. Because 95% of who we are is subconsciously programmed, manifestation starts with self-observation. Reframing our subconscious negative thought patterns enables us to rewire our brains. Being positive is not about lying to yourself. It is being honest and accepting of your situation and actively taking steps to change things, knowing you will succeed. Being authentic. It´s not about faking it until you make it. It is about feeling it until you make it, which acts as the switch. To manifest your ultimate destination, identify the steps and manifest each of those in turn. Why matters.  The moment you let go, is the moment you achieve what you are manifesting. BEST MOMENTS ‘Everything is just energy. Science tells us that.’ ‘Energy creates all things physical.´ ‘There's a separation between who we are and the thoughts or the feelings, we're not the thoughts or the feelings.’ ‘Manifestation is not magic.’   EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.mattcooke.me/ https://www.instagram.com/mattcookecoach/ https://www.tiktok.com/@mattcookecoach https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_KN0UbOpheb61gc8iv0sMA  Double Slit Experiment - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment The Miracle Morning - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Miracle-Morning-Updated-Expanded-Transform-ebook/dp/B0CJ6N7CK9 https://drjoedispenza.com/ Mind Magic - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mind-Magic-Tricks-happier-confident/dp/0717199851    VALUABLE RESOURCES Website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne is joined by Pan Cooke who is an artist, cartoonivist and author who grew up with undiagnosed OCD. At about 10 he started to try to calm his constantly anxious mind using exhausting, time-consuming rituals. He explains what the different types of OCD are and how the right treatment has helped him to manage his condition better. Pan is about to get married, has 300,000+ Instagram followers and a successful career as a portrait artist with many celebrity clients. He dedicates much of his time to sharing the stories of people of colour who have been victims of police brutality in the US, using the medium of comics—an incredibly effective approach. KEY TAKEAWAYS For Pan, thoughts that most of us would quickly dismiss as unimportant would seem like threats to him.  People with OCD frequently use compulsions or rituals, to try to neutralize intrusive and often frightening thoughts. This gives the thought even more power. OCD sufferers do not enjoy their rituals, they overtake their lives. Many people with OCD hide it and do so extremely well. OCD can´t be cured but it can be treated. Presenting information in a truly neutral way using the medium of drawings is an incredibly powerful way to share a story. BEST MOMENTS ‘Nearly 10 years after the puzzle first showed up, I was diagnosed with OCD. ´ ‘People with OCD are very good at keeping secrets, like hiding their compulsions.’ ‘Social media is almost more of a news platform than a lot of actual papers and stuff.’ ‘You can fail at something you don't want to do. You can fail at jobs that you hate. So, you might as well attempt something that you love.’   GUEST RESOURCES https://www.instagram.com/thefakepan/  Puzzled by Pan Cooke - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Puzzled-Memoir-about-Growing-OCD/dp/059361562X/ Eric Garner - https://www.instagram.com/p/CFh20ZGAeYz/?img_index=1 George Floyd - https://www.instagram.com/p/C04xWPeO4kO/?img_index=1 Sinead O´Connor booed off stage - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJ6pW8UGhxE Sinead O´Connor - https://www.instagram.com/p/C04xWPeO4kO/?img_index=1   VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne continues to answer the top questions she has been asked by her listeners and followers about manifestation. Today she answers the following questions – How can I get started with manifesting? How can I raise my vibration? How can I let go of fear and doubt? What should I be manifesting? How can I manifest more quickly? Why am I not manifesting successfully? And How can I tell when my manifestation is coming? KEY TAKEAWAYS Before you start manifesting you have got to figure out what your beliefs are. What are you saying to yourself, how do you perceive what is possible for you? To change and replace your current neural pathways, you have to first understand what they are. Review who you are spending time with, and what you watch, read, and listen to. Be ready to change if necessary. Everyone has down days.  Figuring out what is making you happy on good days will help you to identify ways to raise your vibe on bad days. Fear and doubt are normal, but don´t let it consume you. Learn to be happy in the present.  Be clear about what you really want, and who you want to feel and be. Intuition is huge, always follow your gut. BEST MOMENTS ‘Manifestation is a lifestyle. ´ ‘You need to know what your underlying beliefs are.’ ‘When you are consumed and constantly thinking about it, it means there is fear and doubt.’   EPISODE RESOURCES The Source by Tara Swart - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Source-Open-Your-Mind-Change/dp/B07KM72PJB Dr David Amen - https://danielamenmd.com/ Spanx book - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Spanx-Story-Underneath-Incredible-Storybook-ebook/dp/B07T8SG7WZ VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/   HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In today's episode, Yvonne interviews neurosurgeon, new york times bestseller and international public speaker, James R. Doty, otherwise known as Jim. Jim shares his personal journey of overcoming a challenging childhood and finding hope through a chance encounter with a compassionate mentor. He shares practical steps for manifesting dreams, rewiring the brain, and finding gratitude in everyday experiences. This episode highlights the power of manifestation, the importance of changing one's mindset, and the role of self-awareness in achieving success. Jim is also currently set to release his upcoming book "Mind Magic: The Neuroscience of Manifestation and How It Changes Everything." KEY TAKEAWAYS Start by changing how you view the world and your circumstances. Shift from a negative mindset to one that sees infinite possibilities. Recognize the importance of value tagging in manifestation. By embedding your intentions in your subconscious and making them salient, you increase the likelihood of manifesting your desires. Manifestation requires effort and action. It's not just about visualizing, but also about actively working towards your goals and being open to opportunities. Cultivate a mindset of gratitude and positivity. By focusing on what you are grateful for and maintaining a positive outlook, you can attract more positive experiences into your life. Learn to find peace and acceptance in the journey, regardless of the outcome. Avoid attaching your happiness solely to achieving specific goals and instead find contentment in the present moment. BEST MOMENTS "The universe doesn't give a fuck about you because it has no fucks to give." "I'm an atheist. I'm a complete non-believer, at least in the context of organized religion." "I cannot control my circumstances or my situation, but I can control how I respond to them." "I did an event for 25 people last Sunday. Over one-third of the group said they hate their jobs."   VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/   https://www.instagram.com/jamesrdotymd/ Pre-order Jim's upcoming book on manifestation here: https://amzn.eu/d/addnirp   HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne talks about another key component of successful manifestation - visualisation. She explains what it is, and the highly positive impact it has on how your brain works. As well as guiding you so that you can improve the effectiveness of your manifestations by honing your visualisation skills. The techniques she shares tap into the way our brains work naturally, which is why they are so effective. Yvonne´s recent Instagram poll showed that visualisation is something that a lot of people struggle with. So, listening to this episode is highly likely to benefit you. KEY TAKEAWAYS As kids, we all played pretend games and daydreamed. So, you already possess the ability to visualise. Most famous and successful people visualise and have done so from a young age. Yvonne shares several examples, during the episode. Writing down what you want to manifest is a vital first step. Engage all of your senses when visualising and notice your feelings of joy. Get a snapshot in your mind and replay it several times, every day. Repetition is essential, it makes your mind focus your efforts on achieving what you are manifesting and enables you to notice opportunities when they present themselves, instead of missing them. Neuroscience proves that repetition is an effective tool. BEST MOMENTS ‘Visualisation is for everyone. ´ ‘It is repetition and practice.’ ‘When your brain is focused on it, opportunities will start to arise.’ VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne provides an answer for one the questions she is asked most often – How do I let it go and trust the process. For manifestation to work, once you have put everything you can in place you have to stop worrying and let the universe make it happen, so this is an especially important episode. Yvonne explains exactly what letting go means and how to do it. She shares examples of how she does it and provides you with simple strategies and affirmations you can use to make letting go much easier for you. KEY TAKEAWAYS Letting go is a crucial part of manifestation. Letting go does not mean sitting back and doing nothing. Without action nothing happens.

For this episode, Yvonne sits down with the neuroscientist Anne-Sophie Fluri, to discuss the role manifestation can play in rewiring the brain. A process that enables you to free yourself from the thought patterns, behaviours and habits that are holding you back. They explain the science behind this and share practical ways to incorporate manifestation and other techniques into your daily life.  KEY TAKEAWAYS The way we think, and therefore act, as adults is impacted by the way those in authority taught us to think about ourselves as children. Negative thought patterns can be unlearned. Manifestation, when done properly, is a really effective way to goal set. Visualisation is a powerful part of manifestation. Especially visualising yourself taking each step needed to achieve something. Not everyone finds visualising easy, but you can learn it. How is shared in the episode. Positive affirmations are not effective if you feel you are lying to yourself, which is why you need to tweak the language so that your affirmations are realistic. Your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and actions must be aligned. Recognise that things can go wrong, don´t think too much about this. Whatever you consume before bed is more likely to be consolidated in your memory. Essential oils used at bedtime help to encode memories. Stress is contagious and damaging. Take time off. Make sure it is a complete break. BEST MOMENTS ‘I am finally able to get people on the podcast to talk about the science that backs up manifestation.' ‘You've said them so many times that they become real, and your brain is perceiving them as true.’ ‘Manifestation helps you to set that goal into focus every morning.’   EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.linkedin.com/anne-sophie-fluri https://www.instagram.com/coochiebygucci  Meditating monks brain function research - https://www.researchgate.net/publication/43130704_Duality_and_nonduality_in_meditation_research/link/5be14545a6fdcc3a8dc17f01/download Some of Dr Arman Danielyan´s child and adolescent brain function research - https://scholar.google.es/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&as_vis=1&q=Arman+Danielyan&btnG= Andrew Huberman on prayer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivDqfmicrAI https://www.taraswart.com Essential oils and memory research - https://www.researchgate.net/publication/354467785_Potential_Neuroprotective_Activity_of_Essential_Oils_in_Memory_and_Learning_Impairment VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/   HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne is joined by Shauna Burke who is the owner and director of CROÍA Jewellery. She sells affordable luxury jewellery that is designed to elevate your style. Shauna explains how she used manifestation to skyrocket her sales. Increasing them by 520%. Shauna explains how knowing for a fact that CROÍA Jewellery was going to be a success pushed her through the tough days. She shares how she deals with imposter syndrome and how she maintains a positive yet realistic mindset even when things are not going 100% to plan. KEY TAKEAWAYS When something goes wrong if you dwell on it and keep kicking yourself for it, you are negatively impacting your mindset and setting yourself up for failure. If you wait for everything to be perfect, you´ll never launch. You learn from your mistakes, so don´t be afraid of making some. You have to have a clear purpose. If you don´t when you have a bad day you will falter. People will connect and relate to you better if you use your face for your brand. Face up to imposter syndrome, don´t ignore that little voice that says you are not good enough. Remind yourself of what you have achieved and the fact you will achieve more. You have to be patient with manifestation. Don´t let it go wrong, but if it does go wrong remember there is always a way around it. See it and wait for the moment to make it happen.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Everybody makes mistakes, it´s not a big deal. Get over it. ´ ‘I was always driven to make my own money.’ ‘If you have zero fear and doubt, you are not dreaming big enough.’   GUEST RESOURCES https://croiajewellery.ie/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/dolls-boutique-ie/   VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne sits down with the Irish artist, presidential candidate, songwriter, photographer and TV presenter, Kevin Sharkey. He and Yvonne discuss his life story and the role having a strong and positive mental attitude and following his dream played in his happiness and success. Something he achieved despite his traumatic childhood which included overt racism, being abused by the people who adopted him, then losing everything and being sent back into foster care. He explains how sharing his creativity saved him. KEY TAKEAWAYS Each person is a vessel. You choose what to fill yourself with. It can be anger, or it can be kindness. Never forget you can empty and refill the vessel that is you. In life bad things happen. The only thing that defines if it is good or bad is how you perceive it, and how you react to the situation. You can raise your frequency of being to be above the pain. Never focus on the negative. Acknowledge that something bad has happened and talk about it to someone. But don´t dwell on it and keep discussing it. Dare to go beyond the glass ceiling of what society says you are worth. When you sell yourself for less, you really are saying “I´m not worth it”. Express your creativity. There is healing in the creative process. Share what you create, there is someone out there who desperately needs to see or experience what you create. If you want to do it, do it. Don´t let other people´s perception of who you are and can be, limit you.  BEST MOMENTS ‘Perception is the key to freedom.’ ‘Manifestation is the only thing that you should concern yourself with.’ ‘Life is not always the way you think it should be, but sometimes it's the gratitude for how it is, that creates the change.’ ‘Not being afraid is the most powerful tool you have.’   VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne explains how she has successfully used manifesting to generate more sales. Using manifestation, she went from selling her products one by one online to selling them in bulk to corporate businesses. She explains exactly how she sold 145 items in one transaction to a huge client and got a Northern Ireland retail chain to stock her manifestation products. KEY TAKEAWAYS Stop telling yourself everything you need to do to grow your business is so hard. When you do that, you end up believing it and holding yourself back. Things take time. It´s just the way things are. Accept that and let go of the stress. Visualise more sales. See them coming in, see people using your products and services in your mind's eye. Engage all of your senses when you visualise including your hearing. Imagine how it feels when you get  those sales Manifestation does not work without consistent action. When you let go of the negative, doing the necessary work, no longer feels hard. BEST MOMENTS ‘You know what, if I keep saying it´s going to be so hard, it is so hard. ´ ‘Surrender, let go and have a little patience.’ ‘Visualisation is key.’ ‘We know from the science that a consistent gratitude practice will strengthen the positive neural pathways in your brain.’ EPISODE RESOURCES Pause Penny manifestation box - https://pausepenny.com/product/the-manifestation-box/  Use the coupon shared in the podcast to get yourself a discount VALUABLE RESOURCES Website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

In this episode, Yvonne talks about manifestation in the negative. She asks if you thinking about something going wrong for you, can it make it more likely to happen? Yvonne answers this question by sharing examples of how thinking negatively impacted her life and that of the ones she loves. Before sharing a surprisingly simple way to stop yourself from thinking negatively. KEY TAKEAWAYS Yvonne´s experience is that you can manifest in the negative. The way you perceive things affects how you feel which in turn impacts how you react and act.  When your vibration goes down you start to see everything through negative eyes. Not every bad thing that happens in your life is related to thinking negatively about something. However, it is important to be conscious of our thoughts so that we can switch things up. Doing a simple gratitude practice every day is the best way to strengthen the positive neural pathways. BEST MOMENTS ‘Your thoughts, feelings and beliefs can create a positive life.´ ‘The negative is going to create negativity in your life.´ ‘Manifestation is a lifestyle, a way of being.’ ‘If you are saying negative things to yourself….

In this episode, Yvonne talks about manifesting money. She explains why the way you think has a massive impact on whether you ever have any. Yvonne shares the simple steps you need to take so that you always have access to the money you need to live the way you want. KEY TAKEAWAYS It is impossible to manifest money, a house, or a new car if you continue to have negative views about money. At times you may be broke, but convincing yourself that you will manage, and that money will come ensures that you continue to take the right action to get more. Being clear about why you want the money or possessions is important. But make sure that it is not for selfish or ego-related reasons. Use positive affirmations – if you think I am constantly paying out, that is exactly what is going to keep happening to you. Taking action is essential. Hustle a little more. BEST MOMENTS ‘Before you start manifesting anything, you need to think about your beliefs around money. ´ ‘I've been broke, but I´ve never worried about it. I always knew I was going to get by, and money was going to come.’ ‘Gratitude is key to abundance.’ EPISODE RESOURCES Pause Penny Manifestation Cheques and boxes - https://pausepenny.com/manifest/ To get 20% off use the code mentioned in the podcast.

In this episode, Yvonne shares tips and tricks you can use to manifest your dream job. This is something Yvonne has already done multiple times in her life. So, you can be sure that what she shares here is going to work for you too.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Be specific about what you want e.g., salary, benefits, work hour flexibility. But don´t pick the job title or company. Make yourself accountable, create an employment manifestation contract, sign it, and show or tell others about it. When your needs change, manifest a new dream job that caters for those new needs. If you don´t know what your dream job looks like, start by writing down how you want to feel. Yvonne explains how you want to feel to reveal what your dream job looks like. Use your connections, take opportunities and hustle. Without action, nothing will happen. When you visualise yourself doing your dream job, think about how you will feel and what you will see and hear while doing it. Be grateful for the job you have, and the resources it gives you to find your dream job. BEST MOMENTS ‘When opportunity knocks, you take the opportunity. ´ ‘You have got to believe in yourself.’ ‘Anybody can have their dream job.’ VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.
