Meet Haley Carbajal

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Haley Carbajal. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Haley below.

Haley , so good to have you with us today. We’ve got so much planned, so let’s jump right into it. We live in such a diverse world, and in many ways the world is getting better and more understanding but it’s far from perfect. There are so many times where folks find themselves in rooms or situations where they are the only ones that look like them – that might mean being the only woman of color in the room or the only person who grew up in a certain environment etc. Can you talk to us about how you’ve managed to thrive even in situations where you were the only one in the room?

The answer lies in the question: I am not the only one in the room.

There is an intelligence within all of us that witnesses all that our personhood (or personal identity) is going through. When we believe in the seductive, fear-based thoughts of the mind that are connected to personhood, we forget who we truly are: that higher intelligence.

See, when we can detach from the inner dialogue conjured up by the mind, we can truly see what is and is not true.

It is only our personal identity that suffers from troubles. However, the higher intelligence within is the one who perceives the personal identity suffering but is not the one suffering itself.

When you make your inner work more like data rather than personal stories, you can transcend the delusions of the mind and see clearly the infinite power that lies within.

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?

In the past, I believed I was here to help people pursue their Higher Calling or Soul’s Purpose. However, the universe is leading me in a slightly different direction now.

I am being shown the path of detachment and everlasting internal freedom. For you see, I was once the person who was addicted to passion and purpose. The one attaches to outcomes, results, and the future.

This kept me in a cyclical block, never being able to move forward.

I had my second worst year in business acting from a place of attachment and personal Identity.

It was only when I came across Mooji and his paintings that I saw massive changes in my life: all falling into place without me lifting a single finger.

I had a rare encounter with a highly successful entrepreneur who referred me to his personal stockbroker, and now I make money daily without even working for it.

I have had 2 public media outlets reach out to me to share my story or be a guest. My TikTok went from 1000 followers to 4300 in less than 60 days, with multiple videos going viral, and I have had beautifully supporting relationships come into my life.

This is the power of releasing who you think you are (or who you have to become) in order to walk your path and finding that higher intelligence within you that IS the path.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?

1. You are not who you think you are. You are not your body, your name, or your birthday. You are not even your talents, skills, and gifts. You are not your income bracket nor your role in the family. You are so much more than that. You are the oneness that is the power of all things.

Let your personhood go; let your personal identity go. For it only stands in your way.

2. Put your troubles in God’s Basket. I do not mean God in the traditional religious sense, but rather, as the intelligence that creates and witnesses all things. Most of us are skilled with our words and claim that we surrender our fears to the higher realms. However, we are so quick to become suspicious of the “how” or the “when” that we pick it back up again.

When you give your troubles to God/the Universe/Source/Spirit, you lay them in the basket and choose to never worry about them again.

3. Your mind and personhood (personal identity) are not the enemy. They are your pathway to freedom. It is only when we succumb to the seductions of the mind and leave it unchecked. Both your mind and personhood show you where you are not free, where you are imprisoned. Use this as the key to open up the door not lock your self further in.

Alright so to wrap up, who deserves credit for helping you overcome challenges or build some of the essential skills you’ve needed?

Mooji. Listen to him.
