Episode Date: June 5, 2025

Elevate your life. Elevate your business. Welcome to the Elevated Results podcast. Welcome to Elevated Results. I'm Tneal Zelliger, your host. And on today's episode, we're talking about tapping into your higher self. Now, each one of us, in every human being, there is our ego and our higher self, also known as our victim mentality and our victor mindset. Now, we're only human, even when you look at some of the most enlightened people, successful business owners and entrepreneurs. entrepreneurs, we know that they have an ego side and they have the victim mentality, just like to have the victor and the higher self mentality. But what the difference is, is they've made a decision of which version of them they let operate, which version of them is

in the lead, which version of them is the leader. And so when we really start to break this down and we start to unlock and look at the different sides of the mindsets, it's knowing that we don't have to be perfect all the time. We're never going to be perfect all the time. But it's a decision. So you're one decision away from changing your life. One decision. And that decision is to be committed to living as your higher self, to be committed to growing and evolving and being a better version of yourself than you were yesterday. It's not about being perfect. Because each of us are perfect by being imperfect. Because we wouldn't be authentic to ourselves if we were trying to be perfect all the time.

Nobody's perfect. But when we choose to live and operate as our higher selves, we step into alignment with the flow of the universe, with the guidance that is available to us that's already within us. It's just learning how to unlock it and let it be our guide versus letting the ego be our guide. When I was younger before I really started down my spiritual journey and my self-development journey,

and I learned all the tools and proven strategies from my mentors and teachers before me, I let the ego be in the driver's seat. The ego was what drove me. It made all the decisions for me. It guided my life. And it really didn't guide my life to where I wanted it to be at the time. I made poor decisions based on ego. I made decisions to show that I was right, to feel like I was important and significant, and to sometimes make other people look like they weren't the best in that I was better in business and in personal life. When in reality, that was my ego. And as I've learned and evolved through these proven tools and strategies in ancient practices,

which will share, I learned that the version of me that's needed to accomplish my goals and to really unleash my infinite potential is my higher self. It's the victor mentality. The mentality that's not why me, it's try me. the mentality that's going to ignite our purpose and our potential, and it's going to allow us to be the light that's needed in the world around us. And sometimes that victor mentality still comes up in my mindset. Sometimes that narrative still shows up, just like it probably shows up for you too. What are the ego-driven thoughts that you have? Or maybe you've noticed somewhere in your life or in your business, you've been showing up letting the ego be the driver's seat, not your higher self.

But the first step is awareness. One of the first books I read when I started down this growth journey and when I started elevating my life was the power of now. Everything, presence, is where happiness is. And in today's society, I'm completely guilty of this. We're always on our phone. We're always on our computer. We're available and at the needs of everyone around us, especially as business owners.

You can't escape your cell phone anymore. You can't turn your work off and go home. Some people work from home now. So your computer's always there, your phone's always there. You're always on. You're a button away from somebody else's needs. We're in stimulants, drinking coffee, alcohol, drugs, whatever it is to keep us from the present moment. It keeps us running.

But when you learn how to embrace the present moment, you'll embrace happiness and you'll allow your higher and that light to shine through. And often when we go through a breakdown, there's a breakthrough. Because it's when things start to break open where there allows room for the light to shine through if we let it. But we have to make that decision. We have to make that decision to focus on being our highest and best self, even if we don't know who that is or what it looks like yet.

But after years of letting my ego guide me into places I didn't. want to be because I was afraid I was running away from things. And ego usually shows up in the form of fear. What I learned is my ego is a loud yelling voice that often yells at me. So it comes in negative self-talk. Don't do that. Why would you do that? You'll never be successful. You don't have enough money. All of those thoughts that aren't driving me forward. That's my ego. but it comes in a really loud voice where when it's my higher self, my higher self is tapped into and even when I said that I can see I smile, I get elevated when I think about it because when I tap into my higher self, I'm really listening to that intuitive guidance that's already within me.

And it's almost like a whisper from an outside source that's greater than me, but it cultivates a really powerful sense of certainty. And I just know that it's going to be okay when I lean into that voice and I tap into my higher self. And I know that I'm being guided. And it feels more powerful and certain than any yelling voice. Even if the yelling and screaming of the ego is louder than my higher self, I know which one to tap into now. And where I started was first becoming aware. The ego usually is there to protect us. It doesn't want us to get hurt. It's trying to protect us. And so when you read the power of now and there's so many other awesome books out there, and other different things that you can utilize. We do have a guided meditation on meeting your ego,

but what you'll learn is the ego is there to protect you. So now when I notice that I have an ego-driven thought, instead of letting it ruin the day and take the narrative of my mindset, I thank the ego and say, thank you, ego, thank you for trying to protect me, but not today. I don't need your protection, thank you. I'm in connection to my higher self and a higher power. a greater source than I can even explain. And then I choose another thought. So it's called the Choose Again method, where you then are aware of the thought,

you're aware of the ego, and then you choose to think differently. You choose to let your higher self be your guide. You choose to think the thought process and elevate your mindset by stepping into your higher self. Now, when you're starting to get clear on this, there's a whole bunch of different ways that you can grow through it. And it's all about meeting yourself at where you're at today.

You're not in competition with anybody else but yourself. Being better than who you were yesterday. Taking one step closer to being your higher self. And it all starts with a decision. So that's where again you can start meeting the ego. Notice if it's the ego or if it's your higher self that's really doing the talking and that's leading. Who do you want to be the leader? start noticing it take inventory maybe you write it down get clear notice how many times a day it starts to come up almost have fun with it have a game about it with yourself i mean you could talk out loud and say not today ego but even if you think it that's good people might think you're crazy but it all starts with the awareness and then getting clear and meeting your higher self so that all comes with a reflection of

who do you want to become tony always says that the person that he's is today. He wasn't born that way. He created that version of him. And I see what he means now, because when I look back to who I was and where I was in my life in 2015 and when I was younger and I didn't really know who I was, I didn't know who I wanted to be. I didn't really know what my ideal life looked like. I wasn't really clear on the vision of my dreams and of my business. I wasn't really clear on any of that. So I didn't know who I needed to be. I didn't know what my higher self looked like. and often we don't know that because first we have to figure out what does the ego look like what does the darkness look like just like the sun and the moon without the moon there would be no

sun we need to have everything in balance right but as you start to explore that you might figure out what you don't want first and then you'll start to get clear on what you do want but it all starts by meeting the ego getting clear on the ego and your higher self and then noticing what energizes you, noticing where your energy is ignited, what really excites you, what harnesses your power, where do you feel like you're the most powerful but in flow with the universe, not powerful because you're in control, because the ego likes to control things. The ego likes to protect you. And that can come in different forms.

So once you become clear on the different voices, then you can start choosing again to let your higher self be what drives you. And then you can start to look at what do you want? want to accomplish and then work backwards. What version of you do you need to bring forward to accomplish those goals? So when I look at who I want to become and being my higher self, first you have to be grateful for where we are today. And I'm so grateful for where I am today and how much I've grown, but I know that I still have a lot of growing to do and to continue to being the best version of me and always growing and accomplishing all my dreams and my desires, I need to keep

elevating my mindset. I need to keep growing. We're not done here, but for me to step into the best-selling author that I want to be, for me to step into being a public speaker and known as being a spiritual businesswoman and really bridging the gap and helping people elevate their results, I need to keep playing the game too. I need to keep elevating my results. I need to keep elevating, stepping into my higher and best self. Because if I want to accomplish all of that, I need to keep growing and I need to keep stepping into that and meeting more of my higher self. And what I've noticed as I step into my higher self, it's really, really interesting because it's not always light. Without light, we need darkness. We need darkness sometimes because it

helps us. It's through some of the most challenging obstacles or dark times where we learn what we're truly capable of. We learn how to lean on a source outside of ourselves. We learn how to turn inwards. And you know what? If we're grateful for those moments, they've really been the pivotal points that shape us. And so it all comes down to what lens you want to look at life through. Do you want to be the victim or do you want to be the victor? I know that I want to be the victor. And I know that not every day do I wake up with the victor mindset, but I choose to do it. Just, like Tony Robbins, just like Mel Robbins, just like Edmellette, just like Bejaro's, just like so many other amazing, inspiring influencers and in business owners in the world.

I'm sure that this is a decision that they make every single day. Who do they want to step into? Who do they want to operate us? And that's what is the decision that we get to make every single day. we have something that other people don't. We don't have tomorrow anymore. We don't have yesterday. We have today.

Some people won't wake up tomorrow and we have the opportunity to do that. So tomorrow and even right now in this moment, what are you going to decide? What are you going to decide? I'm going to decide that I'm going to step into my higher self and I'm going to let that higher self, that higher version of me guide me. Even when I don't know how I'm going to get there, I know that I'm going to keep deciding to step into that version of me. So Tony Robbins always talks about if you want better answers, ask yourself better questions.

So if you're utilizing the victor mentality versus the victor, it's not, why is this happening to me? Because that's the first thought that can happen so easily when something bad happens or something that we didn't want to happen. And let's face it, that's life, right? We've all went through things that aren't what we wanted to happen and they were painful. And I can only imagine what some of you have went through. and it's not that it wasn't terrible, but it's a decision of how did this happen for me, not to me? What is a gift in this? And if anybody knows me, they know I love animals and I love, dogs. It's a huge purpose and a passion for me. And when I was young, when I was about 19 years old,

I found this dog and he was really sick and he was a puppy. One of my sister's friends was out at a lake around Lloydminster and they brought this dog back and it was sick and it needed a home and this little puppy was on the driveway and there was a few people standing on the driveway but the dog walked over to me looked up at me and I just knew right then and there I was taking that dog home even though I lived in my mom's basement still and I wasn't really sure what was going to happen and she was really mad at me because I brought a sick dog into her home I just knew that I was meant to do that and I brought the dog with me well anybody who also knows me knows that this dog meant a lot to me. He got me through some of the most challenging times of my life.

He was always a light for me. He was always there. When I was going through so many growing pains, he was always with me right beside me, showing me unconditional love. And he came with me everywhere. He'd come to parties with me. He'd come to do yoga on my paddleboard with me. He'd come to work with me. He literally came everywhere with me. If I'd go somewhere, I'd walk in a house and he'd just sit outside the door for me. Like, he came every with me. He was such a great dog. and and then a few years later like he wasn't even that old but one day I just I knew that he wasn't well and I knew he had cancer I just I can't explain it I just had this intuitive guidance that I knew that he wasn't well and anyways then he started growing a tumor on his back leg and I avoided going to the vet

because I didn't want to face what was actually happening so I avoided it and finally we went to the vet and my husband came with me and they told us that he had cancer and only had a couple weeks to live. And I held myself together and when we left, Kyle said he's like, I thought you were going to lose it. How are you coping? And I decided right then and there, I thought, how is this happening for me? What is a gift in this situation? Even though this situation seemed like it could completely, it was my best friend, it was my everything, my dog. And if you're not a dog lover, you won't understand.

if you are, you will. And if you went through this, I sympathize for you as well because they were part of the family. But I decided that I was going to look at it and find a gift in this situation. And I kept hearing Tony's voice in my ear, what is the gift in this? How is this happening for you, not to you? And then I had at the time watched, I forget what it's called. It's like the Pets Purpose movie or it's like Purpose something, a dog's purpose. And it's about a dog's purpose. If you haven't watched it, go watch it. But I decided right then and there that I was going to make this my mission that even though he passed away, in his honor, I was going to save as many dogs as I could. I wasn't going to let this really be something that took me backwards, even though it was sad.

I looked at it like, how can I help more dogs now? And only a couple months later, we're in Mexico. And of course, what happens? Well, we're in a nice area. There's not a lot of street dogs. but somehow this really sick street dog walks up to my table while we're eating supper and needs help. Well, of course, I decided we're going to help it. The resort we were saying at wouldn't let us take it. None of the rescues around would let us take it. And this construction worker was the sweetest man ever. He's seen that I was trying to save this dog. So he came up to me and he said, okay, I'm not the owner of this. But if you tie the dog here, make sure you get it out of here by 6 a.m. when my boss comes back to work. So I ended up,

finding a tie, this construction worker helped me. We made him a bed, got him food and water, and then I tied him there, and then we went to bed. And at 5.30 the morning, I walked over, got the dog, made it my mission. I was going to save this dog. So we're sitting on the beach. I ended up making like a house, so it wasn't too hot because no one would let me take this stray dog into the hotel or anywhere. And I called every single animal rescue there. And they were all over capacity and said no. After being relentless, I kept calling and finally this amazing Humane Society said, okay, fine, you can bring them here. So I brought this dog there.

An Uber driver took me and my husband with this dog, and we went to the Humane Society where it was a tiny little building. They had over 100 cats and I think 50 dogs in this tiny little building. That was like it was so, so small. And they said, we can't take this dog. We don't have room. And finally they said, okay, if you agree, we'll quarantine it. Because to fly the dog to Canada, they have to be quarantined.

They have to know that they're healthy. so they agreed to quarantine it if we agreed to adopt it. Well, we weren't going to adopt this dog, but we said, sure. And then I started working with this local animal rescue in Lloydminster, and we ended up getting the dog adopted. So the dog, as soon as it got to Canada, it ended up being adopted. And I did that many, many times where now I'm part of another animal rescue, and I did it all in his honor. So what was a loss at the time of losing my best friend and my dog, I turned it into a mission, something that I could help with, something that I could help others that are suffering, turning our pain into our power. And so if any of you are listening, you probably

have a much more painful story and you probably can think of another story that was even more empowering. Like I think of Tony Robbins and he started, his whole mission is to end world suffering and it all started because when he was younger, he didn't have food to eat. So then he started feeding America where he literally feeds billions of people in America every year, this huge foundation. So you can turn your pain into your power. And that's really by utilizing your higher self mindset, by stepping into your higher self and letting go of the ego, letting go of the ego driven thoughts, tapping into your higher self and into your intuition, and bringing it into everything you do, into your personal life and into your business. Because when you start elevating your mindset,

and you start stepping into your higher self, you're going to inspire other people to do the same thing. Now, when I think of business, when we're in our higher self and we're in alignment, we're going to start attracting all of the right people to our business. And when we're in flow, that's again, the law of attraction. We're going to start to see more business flow our way. So that's what I'm inviting you to do is really look at your mindset and think who do you want to become. Do you want to be your higher self? And what does that higher self look like? Write out your goals. Envision your perfect life. If you could have anything you want and there was nothing holding you back, what would your ideal life look like? What would your vision for your life and yourself look like? And then figure out who you need to be,

who your higher self is to accomplish it. Because together, that's how we elevate our life. And that's how we'll elevate our businesses, because it all starts with us. It all starts with you. It all starts with me. and that's where together we can co-elevate and elevate our results. Thank you for co-elevating with us today.
