"When a Meditation Nudged Me to Give"

I’ve been part of the Mindvalley community for a while now, and something recently happened that reminded me just how powerful these practices can be—not just for personal growth, but for connection.

There’s a woman I work with. We’ve never met in person—just exchanged a good number of work emails over time. She’s smart, thoughtful, and in one message, she closed with this quote:

“We are each other’s harvest; we are each other’s business; we are each other’s magnitude and bond.”

It struck me. Over time, we started to realize we share similar views on life, purpose, and the things that really matter.

Then, one day during the Six Phase Guided Meditation, her name kept popping up. Not in a weird way—just gently, clearly. Along with this very specific message: “Buy her a Mindvalley membership.”

So I did. Just followed the nudge.

A few days later, she wrote back:

“JOEEE!!!! OMG!!! I STARTED LISTENING TO ‘BE EXTRAORDINARY’... He is speaking about my life right now. I swear this is exactly what I need for my next transformation in life. Loving every minute of it.”

Reading that, I felt this deep gratitude—not for the thanks, but for the reminder that when we give from the right place, the return is often felt, not measured.

At this stage in life, I focus on four things I have to give: time, energy, wisdom, and love. Mindvalley helps me grow those resources. And the more I give them away, the more I seem to have.

Just wanted to share this in case someone else has had similar nudges—or is wondering if they should follow one. Sometimes, it really is that simple.
