Weekly Call Postponed
I won't be hosting our weekly call this week. Kelly is going out with her siblings and mom for a Mother's Day dinner, and Quinn and I are hanging out to watch anime movies and eat too much popcorn. I'll be back on track next weekend. And I'm recording a couple of weeks' worth of videos this weekend. Stay tuned! And please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!

@Cherryl Chow We had a really good time. It was well-needed.
The Abundance Experiment - Week 1: The Mirror We Call Money
What if your finances aren't a math problem — they're a mirror? This is Week 1 of The Abundance Experiment, read by the author. In this chapter, we meet the central idea of the entire book: that every financial reaction you have — the anxiety before checking your balance, the guilt after a purchase, the quiet resentment when someone else seems to have it easy — isn't really about money at all. It's about what you believe about yourself. Through a personal story about two very different upbringings and the surprising thing they have in common, this chapter unpacks why your financial life is a readout of your inner life — and introduces the first experiment: seven days of simply watching the mirror. What's in this chapter: → Why money is never neutral → The "out there" illusion that keeps people financially stuck → What your emotional reactions to money reveal about your self-worth → The 7-Day Money Mirror Challenge This is the second section of the full audiobook, released weekly as the project comes together. https://youtu.be/838VSBWTIFU

You Are The Vortex
I finished something this week that I've been thinking about for a long time. Everyone in this space talks about the Abraham Hicks vortex. But I kept hearing explanations that made people wait — like the vortex was a cosmic Amazon warehouse and if you just vibrated correctly, your stuff would ship. That never sat right with me. So I finally worked out what I actually think the vortex is. And it's simpler and more useful than the standard explanation — and honestly a little more demanding too, because it means you can't just meditate your way into your dreams. The short version: the vortex is you. It always has been. The long version is a 39-minute video I posted today, with the full essay on Substack if you'd rather read it. I'd love to know what lands for you — especially the memetic momentum section. I think that's the one most people in this community need to hear right now. YouTube: [Link] Substack: [Link]

🌀 Something's coming this week and I think it's going to change how you see everything.
I've been sitting with the Abraham Hicks vortex teaching for a long time. And I love it. But the standard explanation never quite worked for me — and I think I finally understand why. Here's the thing nobody is saying: The vortex isn't out there somewhere waiting to deliver your desires. The vortex is you. You are an information processing system — taking in, filtering, and putting back out — constantly, 24/7, whether you're thinking about it or not. And that changes everything about how you actually work with it. I'm dropping a full video this week that unpacks the whole thing — the science, the theology, the mechanics of how this actually works in your life. And I'll be posting the full essay on Substack for those who want to go deeper. Stay tuned. This one's been a long time coming. 🌱

@Cherryl Chow I just posted the full article on my Substack. And I have an audio recording coming out later today on my YouTube channel. I think you'll really like it.

@Cherryl Chow I'm in the process of migrating all of my stuff from all my channels over to my main channel: https://youtube.com/@shelgerson?si=c434ZCeDcX3NUXYe It's mostly old stuff on there for now, but I'm moving everything from Finding Fuscata over there - all my interviews. And I have a few on another channel called Sean Murdock Talks. I have no idea what's out there. Mostly I see a lot of crazy haircuts from some young dude.
The Vortex Is YOU
Abraham Hicks frequently talks about "the vortex" — but have you ever wondered what it actually is? I used to think it was some strange spinning thing holding my hopes and dreams in another dimension, and if I just vibed hard enough, stuff would plop out of it. But if you follow the idea closely, you'll see that the vortex is just you. It's you living your life. I did a deep dive on this — what the vortex actually is, why your emotions matter, and why this isn't some mystical concept but a real mechanism you're already using every day. Full essay is on my Substack and the video is coming soon.
