The Jim Fortin Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Start Your Transformation Now In today’s episode, we explore the concept of meditation in a way you’ve probably never heard before. Rather than something you do in silence or isolation, meditation becomes a state of being—one you can live in constantly, no matter what’s happening around you. This deep, transformative insight redefines what it means to stay connected to your inner self, bringing peace and clarity to your everyday life.  Drawing from Don Xavier’s teachings, we explore the concept of being in a meditative state 24/7, integrating meditation into your daily life by staying connected to your inner world rather than being consumed by the outer world.  We’ll also discuss how living in the outer world is the source of most of our stress, anxiety, and disease, while true healing and peace come from within. By learning to exist in a state of stillness and divine power, we can overcome the toxic effects of external pressures and live in a state of well-being and health. This episode also touches on the importance of balancing the body and being, where our body, the physical container, should never control the divine essence within.  What You’ll Discover in This Episode:  The Difference Between the Inner and Outer Worlds (03:50): How living in the inner world fosters well-being, while the outer world leads to stress and imbalance.  How to Meditate 24/7 (08:10): Practical insights into maintaining a meditative state even while engaging with daily tasks.  Stress and Anxiety Linked to the Outer World (12:34): Why stress and anxiety come from living externally and how shifting inward can heal.  The Relationship Between the Body and Divine Power (28:51): Understanding the balance between your physical body and the divine energy it contains.  True Health and Well-being (19:37): How staying connected to your inner world supports true well-being, without letting external circumstances control your state.  Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway: Meditation is not something you just do – it’s a state of being. By staying connected to your inner world and not letting the outer world control you, you can live in alignment with your divine power, finding peace, healing, and true well-being from within. It’s about living in stillness, no matter what’s happening around you.

Start Your Transformation Now In today’s episode, we dive deep into the often-overlooked yet profound role that water plays in our overall health and healing. Drawing from the teachings of Don Xavier, we explore how water extends beyond physical necessity. It's a powerful element that carries memory. Water can be influenced by the way we engage with it – through our attitude, gratitude, and intention – which can directly affect its ability to nourish and heal our bodies.  A key point in Part 3 of this series is the effect of cold water on the body. Drinking cold water can cause crystallization in the blood, which Don Xavier teaches may reduce our longevity by disrupting the natural flow of energy within the body. On the other hand, room-temperature water is gentler and works in harmony with our bodies, supporting a balance that enhances our well-being.  We also explore ancient practices like blessing water – a simple yet powerful way to tap into water’s healing frequency by infusing it with gratitude and intention. This practice allows us to access water as a source of healing and deepen our connection to its vital role in health. Additionally, we look at time-honored methods such as drinking from copper water bottles and oxygenating water, along with external supplements like herbs, as practical ways to amplify the benefits of what we consume.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  The Power of Declarations (02:27): Your attitude and thoughts shape your healing journey.  Water’s Memory and Healing Potential (06:32): Water holds memory and why blessing water enhances its healing properties.  The Dangers of Drinking Cold Water (10:12): Cold water can cause crystallization in the blood and reduce longevity.  Copper Water Bottles and Oxygenation (15:45): Using a copper water bottle and oxygenating water can boost health.  Healing from Source (22:14): True healing comes from your consciousness and attitude. External treatments and supplements should support, not replace, your inner healing efforts.  Transformational Takeaway: Healing is not just about physical remedies – it’s about the power of your consciousness and where you focus your energy. By engaging with water mindfully, blessing it, and maintaining a positive attitude, you activate its ability to support your health. True healing comes from within, guided by your thoughts and declarations, while external treatments and supplements should only serve to enhance the internal healing you cultivate through awareness and intention.

Start Your Transformation Now In this concise yet enlightening episode, we dive into the concept of “The Universe Smells You.” This metaphorical exploration delves into how our personal energy influences the way the universe interacts with us, akin to how one might react to another person's body odor—drawing closer with pleasant scents and recoiling from unpleasant ones. Throughout this discussion, I share insights into how our energetic ‘scent'—whether of desperation, abundance, or neutrality—dictates the experiences and outcomes we attract in our lives. We often focus on the external appearances of success and happiness, yet it's the underlying energy we emit that truly shapes our reality. This episode challenges you to consider the energy you're projecting and how it aligns with the results you're experiencing. Drawing on personal anecdotes and professional experiences, particularly from a challenging time during a prolonged home renovation, I reflect on how external pressures can squeeze us, revealing our true energetic nature. Just like squeezing an orange yields juice, life's pressures reveal our innermost energies—whether they are positive or negative. Listen and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway: When life puts pressure on you, what comes out? This episode encourages you to reflect on the ‘scent’ you give off to the universe and how it mirrors back in the form of life experiences. By understanding and adjusting our internal energies, we can better align with the universe to create the realities we desire.

Start Your Transformation Now I’m sure you have heard the phrase, “The definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over and expecting different results,” Right?  Have you ever wondered why you totally get that phrase, and it makes sense to you, but you still keep doing the same things over and over that you don’t like?  And, have you ever really thought about the consequences of doing the same actions over and over? The consequences are that when you keep doing the same actions over and over and you keep getting the same reactions over and over.  Wow, it’s so simple and we get it, but why don’t we change? Keep reading….  Take a look at the three primary areas of your life: Health, wealth and relationships. They are three areas where we do “actions.”  However, what reactions are you getting to your actions?  Do you like those reactions or, stated a different way, do you like the outcomes you are getting in your life? Are you thrilled with your health, money and relationships?  If not, own it because you are the one creating the results you do not want and then on the flip side you’re wanting to be happy at the very same time. You create a life you don’t enjoy or an unfulfilled life, and then you’re unhappy about it. Does that make any sense?  In fairness to you, it’s not your fault that you keep living in the cycle of what Einstein called INSANITY: Doing the same things and expecting different results.  You do it because it’s who you are and who you are is your subconscious identity.  In this episode, let’s take a fresh look at the concept of self identity and let’s talk about a fresh approach.  Transformational Takeaway: The way out of the life you don’t want is the way inside yourself.

Start Your Transformation Now Yes, I do mean “soul” power, and, no, I don’t mean “sole” power.  When you think of your soul, what do you think of? Maybe infinity, divine mind, cosmic consciousness, eternal life? I’m not sure, but one thing this is for sure, none of us can answer with 100% certainly of what what specially our soul is. And, one thing we can agree on is that no matter what it is, it’s assumed and believed that it’s the infinite part of us and it’s powerful.  The huge question I have and take a stab at in this episode is: How powerful is your soul?  You have probably thought a bit about your soul but have you thought about its incomprehensible power?  Further, have you thought about what that power can do for your life? What it can create for you? How living a soulful life greatly enhances your life?  And reminder, when I say soulful I don’t mean religious. I mean, that cosmic beingness of you.  The point of this episode is to point out all the petty and non sensical things you consume yourself with, and none of them are soulful, per se, they come from your human identity. They come from your past and from your indoctrination.  From their past and indoctrination most people live and wrap themselves up in things they fear from their external world like finances, jobs, economies, the news, mass thought and all things we identify with a “humans.”  Your human form is the absolutely smallest part of who you are as a soulful being, yet it keeps the masses trapped.  In this episode I lightly delve into the trapping of the ego and circumstances and what’s available to us when we live from soul energy. Transformational Takeaway: You are the SOUL power in your life because that power comes though you and not from you! Let's Connect:  Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?

Start Your Transformation Now Wonder how mega achievers think in a “real world” kind of way? I’m not talking about coaching, sound bites, media interview snippets, etc. I mean, what goes on in their mind when it comes to success, life, and business? How do they approach their own life? In this episode, I interview a long-time friend, Shama Hyder. Shama is a very successful woman. One who is powerful in her own presence and a woman who has made a mark in the world of PR and digital media marketing. Over the years she has been recognized by The White House and UnitedNations as one of the Top 100 Young Entrepreneurs in the United States. Not only that she has been recognized by Forbes, INC, Fast Company, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal, and many other publications as a marketing leader. Even today, LinkedIn calls her one of the top 10 marketing experts on LinkedIn. In this interview, we just have a friendly talk that’s between friends and discuss life, business, and family and you’ll hear how she approaches her own life. In my opinion, this is a great listen for anyone and especially professional women/mothers and entrepreneurs. Shama is REAL. She’s heart-centered. She’s humble and an amazing leader who has created a digital marketing company that has global influence. She’s definitely one to listen to and follow. And, on a personal note, something I have known about her for many years…she an amazing visionary. I cannot say enough good things about her. Listen and hear why I say what I do. Enjoy!

Start Your Transformation Now I know the headline is bold, but it is true. You can Be Do And Have everything you want WHEN you become resourceful enough to create it. Look around you. Look at the millions of people who have created exactly what you want in life. Why have they done this and you have not? Easy, the have become resourceful enough to create it. Most people work backwards. They want resources, and that is often money or something they think they want. The problem with that is that resources come and go but it’s the initial resourcefulness that created the resources in the first place. What does it look like to be resourceful? The definition of resourceful is: Having the ability to find quick and clever ways to overcome difficulties. The definition of un resourceful is: Not having the ability to find quick and clever ways to overcome difficulties. In plain English. It means you give up, quit and make excuses about why you can’t Do, Be or Have what you want in life. As you just read through that, which applies to you? (Even if you don’t want to admit it.) I want you to have more and that is why I created this audio (podcast) titled: You can BE, DO and Have everything you want when you are resourceful. Enjoy it while you’re listening, but more than that…apply the concept and watch your life start changing in the ways you never imagined. The reason you don’t have what you want in life is because you are not being resourceful enough to create it. What dramatic change? BE resourceful! Transformational Takeaway: You Can Be, Do And Have Everything You Want When You BEcome Resourceful!

Start Your Transformation Now At first read, you might reactively answer and say, “No, there is no way I live a life of convenience. After all, I’m working hard, life is challenging and I’m doing my best, there is no way I’m living my life from convenience.”  If that or anything like it is your response, I understand.  However, have you fully considered what’s causing the current inconveniences in your life?  Inconveniences are different things for different people.  It could be the economy, your health, a job that you don’t like, a relationship that no longer works…it can be almost anything, as we’re all different. And, when I say “inconveniences” I’m not talking about a squeaky door hinge and little annoying things like that.  I’m talking about bigger inconveniences like maybe you drive a two-hour commute each day and you don’t even like your job but it pays well and you don’t have time to look for another one. Or, you want to be, do or have a lot more in life but so much is going on it’s just inconvenient to change things up in your life.  Have you thought about the choices you did or did not make in the past that have contributed to your present life?  You did not get here today by accident. You got here by choice. You got where you are by living from behaviors that are convenient.  The truth is, most people got here or don’t have what they want in life exactly because of convenience. They don’t make the choices to create and have the life they want because those choices are not convenient for them in their current life circumstances.  Want a new job but not convenient to look? Want better health but not convenient to go to the gym? Or, not convenient to pay for a gym membership?  Want better health and know you should eat better quality food but the cost is not convenient?  Have you thought about the inconvenience of bad health that may come from eating poor quality food?  The whole point is that most of us live from convenience, even though we think it is not that. And, by doing this we create even greater inconvenience in our future. Transformational Takeaway: The more you try to live from convenience now, the more inconvenience you’ll have later in life.

Start Your Transformation Now Yes, another episode on money and prosperity. Why another episode on money on a transformational podcast?  Easy, because to have total prosperity, even in a bad economy, requires internal transformation.  As you have perhaps heard me say, “Wealth is an internal game,” and if you want money to still flow into your life, even in the 2022 economy, then you must improve your internal state and “Way of BEing.”  How is your internal state related to your external circumstance of money? Again, easy…  Please listen or re-listen to episode #9 where I talk about how most people use the Law Of Attraction to repel money.  Unlike the past episodes regarding money, I also talk about your “Ways of BEing” in this episode.  We’re human beings, not human doings yet most people have never really learned or accepted that and they function only as human doings. When we are only human doings we are then restricted by the laws of physics and the material world and we are then at the mercy of our financial system. Our BEing attracts our circumstances.  When we function primarily as an “aware” human being, we are then working in and with the worlds on vibration, frequency, and attention and this is our true cosmic (and economic) power. Transformational Takeaway: How you are “BEing” is where your attention is and where your attention is, that is what you are attracting.

Start Your Transformation Now I remember decades ago when I was talking to don Xavier, and he said to me, “You must learn to move your attention because where you attention is…is where you are.”  Thinking back to 2009 and the global economic collapse. I remember how much economic fear that caused in me, and one day it dawned on it, “Hey, where’s my attention?”  That is what is extraordinarily vital for you to fully understand. I know you understand it analytically but do you understand it emotionally?  If you’re getting into any kind of fear about anything then you understand it but you don’t know it.  I can’t state strongly enough, any and every single time you are feeling the least bit of fear, worry or anxiety about the world, that is where your attention is.  And, where your attention is…that’s where you are keeping your vibration and frequency, and that’s exactly what you are attracting right back into your life.  Many of us are using our emotions against ourselves.  I want to remind you, the name of this podcast is: Transforming Your Life From The Inside Out and when you’re in fear and the situations in the world, though it is inside of you, per se, it’s coming from some reaction to something outside of you. And, that in itself is living your life backwards.  This entire conversation reminds me of something a friend said to me, he’s a former Navy Seal and he said, “Calm seas don’t make great sailors.”  And, as we look at the world and it’s definitely not a calm sea but are you going to live your life from the inside out and allows yourself to drown or are you going to become a stronger sailor?  Want a little gauge to help keep you on track?  Fear. Pay attention. How many times per day are you getting into fear? How much and how often?  This is clearly tell you if you’re living from the outside in.  Why?  Because your soul does not know human fear, and if you’re in any kind of fear, that is coming from your human experience, outside of you, not your soul, which is inside you. Transformational Takeaway: You are where your attention is. Manage your attention well.
