Being Paid More, While Working Less
Name: Alix Camp
Are you currently a Pathway Member?: Yes
What was on your manifestation list?: List:
-New PT Nanny Job ~ a part-time bridge job to support returning to my energy healing business
-At least $25-35 an hour
-Minimum of 15-25 hours per week (2 or 3 days per week)
-A family that lived less than 10 min from my house.
-No creepy dads!
-Cool Mom & Dad boss (or mom&mom or dad&dad) who love each other - I relate to their parenting styles.
-Toddler age child(ren) ideal
-There has to be 1-2 kids.
-Preferably a girl
-Only weekday hours - No late night! No bedtime routine! No crack of dawn work hours!
-It starts in late March or early April, so I have time off after quitting my current job.
What workshops did you use and what blocks did you discover during the DIs & workshops?: Unblocked Inner child and Unblocked Money workshops. Graciousness, magnetic self, reparenting DI.
What expanders did you find?: Multiple friends who have or have had highly paid nanny jobs with great families.
What tests did you face? Which did you pass? Not pass?: I received a few tests right away. I posted that I was looking along with my ideal position on my personal Instagram. I got many responses! One job seemed so close to my list - cool parents, really close to my home - but they had three kids and could not meet my $ rate requirements. I told them I couldn't work with them, which wasn't easy for me! I had a bit of a hangover about it. Thoughts of scarcity crept in. A few families came in wanting to work with me full time, but those were easy to pass.
Did you experience a magic dark period? If so, tell us about it.: There was no real magic dark! I was surprised by this.
How did your manifestation come through?: My dream nanny family found me on care.com. We FaceTimed, and I had this feeling in my belly that they were the family! They were everything on my list! They had a sweet three-year-old daughter, a very sweet mom & dad boss with great, loving energy. The dad boss has a kind and respectful demeanor (I've had issues with this in the past), they live 7 minutes from my house, needed me to work 1-7 pm, three days a week Monday-Wednesday, no bedtime routine, and they didn't need me to start until the last week of March!
They had me over to meet their daughter and said their usual rate was $20/hr under the table. I stayed firm to my $25/hr, and they immediately accepted, offering me the job! I'm psyched! Now I'll be making more money working three days a week than I did working five days a week. This is my last day working at my other nanny position that had become very "low self-worth" for me. It feels like a big exhale.

What is your cultural upbringing and background?: Half Japanese, Half Caucasian (German/Dutch) - I grew up in Hawaii. For the past several years, I've had a pretty dismal financial situation. Pretty much ever since I left my full-time job to become an entrepreneur/artist.
