Move Forward!
Candace Stuart-Findlay The Transformational Catalyst

Seeking to move forward? Searching for the tools and techniques to do so that guarantees your success?

The information provided in this presentation is loaded with the tools and techniques gathered from Candace's research into the combined realm of physiology, Quantum Mechanics and Biophysics. 

Per the Biophysicist, Dr. Bruce Lipton, without training to function differently, we are only consciously aware of about 5% of what we are experiencing, thinking, and feeling. This means that 95% of what we think and feel is experienced unconsciously…there is a better way!

Move Forward! introduces you to the basic principles needed to consciously create your abundant life blueprint.  

All this is shared in an engaging manner that empowers you to consciously create your fulfilling move forward path!

Unlock Massive Wealth By Cracking Your Money Code
Carmen Croonquist President

Do you have a love-hate relationship with money? Do you find yourself in a cycle of under-charging and over-delivering for your services? Do you feel awkward during conversations about money – like, when being asked by potential clients about your pricing? Don't worry, you're not alone. 

 

Let’s face it – we all have a “money story” based on messages and experiences we received very early in our lives about our ability to receive, earn, save, and spend money.  Unfortunately, many of those messages were disempowering and limiting. Why is this important? Because how we “do money” is how we do EVERYTHING!

 

If you are ready to crack your “money code” for a transformational breakthrough in your relationship with money, 2024 can look dramatically different from last year when you decide to play at the highest level when it comes to creating wealth in your life and business!

 

Embrace a relationship with money that serves you, supports your dreams, and helps you create a future filled with prosperity! This session helps you uncover the power of your money mindset, rewrite your rules to have an abundant relationship with money, and start your journey towards intentional wealth creation. Now is YOUR time to shine!
