Have you ever thought, "If I can just make more money, build the business, or buy the house—then I'll finally be fulfilled," but found yourself right back in the chase? Why is it that no matter how much we achieve, it still feels like it's never enough? In this episode, we explore the hidden reason behind why success still feels like it's not enough—and the powerful mindset shifts you can make to finally feel fulfilled while still growing and achieving.

He shares his own story of outward success without fulfillment—dream job, business ventures, financial wins—paired with the inner emptiness that came with constantly chasing the next milestone. From there, he unpacks 3 life-changing insights: ✨ You're too focused on outcomes – chasing the next achievement keeps you on a treadmill that never ends. ✨ You're not addressing your beliefs – limiting beliefs about money, love, rest, and success shape how you experience every win. ✨ You're not living your life – postponing joy until "someday" keeps you from fully experiencing the life you've already built. You'll discover how to reframe success through practices like gratitude, self-reflection, and intentional living. Joey introduces tools like the "decision matrix" to help you shift limiting beliefs about money and happiness, and he shows why living life as an experiment, rather than a never-ending chase, is the real path to fulfillment.

93.The 4D Exercise That Helps You Create the Life You Actually Want
Have you ever felt like you're doing all the right things but still not living the life you truly want? What if the gap between where you are and where you want to be wasn't about time, but about identity? And what if you could step into your future self today and watch your reality shift instantly? In this episode, we dive into the 4D Exercise, a powerful tool that helps you design your life from the inside out. It's not about wishful thinking or waiting years for things to change. It's about aligning your desires, your current identity, your future identity, and then choosing to live as that person now. What you'll discover in this episode: Why most people stay stuck repeating the same patterns How your current identity silently shapes your reality The exact steps to create alignment between who you are and who you want to become The mindset shift that turns your goals from "someday" into today This exercise was born out of real coaching experiences and the powerful insights of David Bayer, a leader in mindset and transformational work. It challenges you to go beyond surface-level self-improvement and actually embody your future self now. When you practice this framework, you'll start to notice: Greater clarity about what you truly want More confidence in your decisions A sense of ease because you're no longer waiting for "someday" Alignment between your thoughts, actions, and desired outcomes The 4D Exercise works because it reprograms how you see yourself. Instead of being trapped in your current limitations, you begin to step into possibility. You start acting from the perspective of the person who already has the results you want. And when your actions align with that identity, reality follows. If you've ever felt like you're trapped in cycles of self-sabotage, or like your goals are always out of reach, this episode will give you a framework to shift everything. Ask yourself: Who do I need to be right now to align with my desires? The truth is, you don't have to wait years to live the life you want. You just need to choose your future identity and embody it today. Want to go deeper? Join me for The Great Life Experiment: 30 Days to Rewire Your Reality. This isn't about adding more to your to-do list, it's about living differently. Each day, you'll practice simple but powerful shifts that reconnect you with curiosity, alignment, and the person you truly want to be. Imagine where you could be in just 30 days if you stopped waiting for "someday" and started living as your future self now.

92.Why Positive Thinking Didn't Work for You (And What Actually Does)
Have you ever wondered why positive thinking doesn't work for you? Why the law of attraction fails even when you visualize every day? Or why manifestation feels hard no matter how many vision boards you create? If you've been asking these questions, this episode is for you. In this conversation, I break down why manifestation isn't working the way you've been told and what actually creates lasting results. For years, I was chasing outcomes, hustling harder, and trying to "think positive," but deep down I felt frustrated, stuck, and even burned out. I discovered that the missing pieces were surrender, acceptance, and learning how to feel my goals into reality, not just think them. What we'll explore together: Why positive thinking doesn't work (and the real missing link to manifestation) The hidden trap of chasing outcomes instead of building a life you actually love How to use the Decision Matrix to rewire limiting beliefs and end self-sabotage The Echo Effect and why your external reality always lags behind your inner shifts The truth about overachiever burnout and how to get results by doing less Why the subconscious mind is the real driver of success and how to reprogram it Whether you've tried affirmations, vision boards, or endless mindset coaching sessions, you'll learn why those tools sometimes fail and how to shift into an abundance mindset that feels effortless. This is where ease over hustle becomes the secret to creating not only success, but genuine fulfillment. Practical strategies you'll hear: How to stop chasing outcomes and start enjoying the process of your life How to overcome doubt in manifestation and believe in your goals How to create a life of alignment instead of living on autopilot How to attract success effortlessly by feeling into your vision How to build momentum and produce results while spending less time This isn't about quick fixes or surface-level motivation. This is about personal growth, mindset shifts, and lifestyle design that actually last. If you've ever thought "manifestation not working for me" or "why the law of attraction fails," this episode will connect the dots in a way that finally makes sense. So if you're ready to stop the cycle of self-sabotage, let go of limiting beliefs, and start living from a place of abundance mindset and surrender, hit play now.

What if the key to wealth, love, and parenting wasn't in spreadsheets but in healing your money stories and breaking generational patterns? 🤯 In this episode of Real Influence, I sit down with Hannah Chapman financial advisor for entrepreneurs, founder of Expansive CEO, and a visionary leader in conscious financial planning. Together, we unpack how to break free from negative money stories, heal the family money beliefs that are silently shaping your life, and step into true alignment with your purpose and prosperity. Hannah shares how she blends Human Design, money alignment, and spiritual financial planning to help entrepreneurs and families find freedom from scarcity, guilt, and self-sabotage. 🙌 We go deep into the financial healing journey where money isn't just numbers, it's tied to self-worth, inner peace, and generational wealth healing. We also talk about the struggles couples face when one partner doesn't believe in spirituality, how to rebuild marriage trust around money, and how to create financial intimacy in relationships without shame or blame. ❤️ If you've ever asked, "How do I align with my partner about money and spirituality?" this conversation has the answers. And it doesn't stop at money and marriage. Hannah reveals how parenting through self-healing allowed her to create a safe emotional space for her kids especially raising children on the autism spectrum. 🧩 We explore how parents can break generational money trauma, release scarcity beliefs, and show their children what true abundance looks like. This is more than an episode about money , it's about self-reflection, transformation, and combining inner work with financial success. Whether you're navigating couples money struggles, searching for a financial advisor with spirituality, or simply wanting to heal your money mindset, this episode will inspire you to rewrite your story. ✨ Topics We Cover: Breaking free from money stories & generational trauma Human Design and money alignment Conscious financial planning for entrepreneurs Couples money struggles & financial intimacy in relationships Rebuilding marriage trust when partners disagree about money & spirituality Parenting through self-healing and creating safe emotional space for kids Healing money trauma and finding financial freedom If you're ready to change your money story, heal your relationships, and create a legacy of abundance, this conversation is for you. 🚀 In this we'll talk about: 00:00 – The Real Reason You're Still Struggling With Money 04:58 – Healing Money Trauma: From Scarcity to Soul-Aligned Wealth 11:32 – Bringing Spirituality Into Business (Without Losing Credibility) 18:22 – Marriage, MDMA, and Mindfulness: A Real Conversation About Connection 24:48 – Conscious Parenting: Holding Space for Neurodivergent Kids 31:07 – Generational Healing Through Inner Child Work 36:40 – Using Human Design & Gene Keys in Financial Coaching 41:13 – Legacy Building Through Emotional Safety & Self-Awareness Connect with Joey! https://www.instagram.com/joeyvaillancourt/ https://www.facebook.com/joey.vaillancourt.9/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/joey-vaillancourt/ https://www.youtube.com/@joeyvaillancourt-realinfluence https://www.joeyvaillancourt.com Connect with Hannah! https://hannahrchapman.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannahrchapman/ https://www.instagram.com/hannah.chapman.cfp/ Video resources/links of things mentioned https://expansiveceo.com/products_services #ExpansiveCEO #MoneyStories #HealYourMoneyMindset #GenerationalWealthHealing #ConsciousFinancialPlanning #HumanDesignAndMoney #FinancialAdvisorWithSpirituality #CouplesMoneyStruggles #RebuildMarriageTrust #FinancialIntimacy #BreakingGenerationalTrauma #ParentingThroughHealing #SafeEmotionalSpace #realinfluence #joeyvaillancourt #livingunfenced #hannahchapman
