In today’s episode, we chat with Janet Attwood, a bestselling author with more than 20 books under her name. She is also a passion, fulfillment, and creative coach, a Transcendental Meditation teacher, and an Ayurveda believer.

Janet is the creator of the “Passion Test” -- which is both a test and book that helps you discover your true passion and really start living your life’s purpose. In addition, she has expanded the Passion Test to different areas of life including: Passion Test for kids & teens, and the Passion Test for business. 

She followed up with “Your Hidden Riches: Unleashing your power of rituals to create a life of meaning and purpose.”

Janet says the Passion Test enables individuals to realize that they're not just going through this world on automatic, but they can be able to tap into their genius and really use their creativity to bring out their gifts so that they can share them with the world. It helps you to become a manifestation magnet. 

In this conversation, Janet gives us a toolkit on how to be creative, what to do when you’re dealing with blockers of creativity and how to get rid of limiting beliefs about yourself so as to keep the passion alive and burning. Here is what works for her:

• The first is Transcendental meditation, where she uses rituals to enhance her life and refuel. This relies heavily on meditation. 
• The second is undoing her limiting belief- this is where she changes what she puts her mind to focus on while using positive words when talking to herself.
• The third is TheWork, based on a process developed by Katie Byron. This is a process of self-inquiry that allows you to access the wisdom that lives within you by asking yourself the “Four Questions and a Turnaround method”
• Fourth, Janet uses the Maro-Up process which she also wrote a book on. Here, Janet uses the 10 principles of Wahei Takeda, the Japanese Warren Buffet, who used the Maro-Up teachings of gratitude to make his fortune and live his life.
• Lastly, find a mentor.  A mentor who can untangle and undo the beliefs that you have about your inability to shine a light on your greatness and inspire transformation through love. 

In summary, through Janet's years of Meditation practice, developing the Passion Tests which have been used by millions of people and written bestsellers, Janet believes that in order to live a high level of creativity,  we must share our lovely gifts with the world, no matter what it is, because that's the path to happiness.
