People are free to choose the direction of how their lives will play out; some will fail, some will succeed. It is because some people are better or more blessed than others? No!

Love Is On The Other Side Of Fear

August 06, 2023 14:23 - 4 minutes - 6.63 MB

Love is letting go of all fear. The fear of failure, rejection, and even the fear of releasing one’s false God – the martyr, the victim self-image that the world has told us we are. Love is to know who you are and not to be afraid of it. Love is to turn your back on the world and all of its lies. To throw off all of the mantles we have acquired on our journies and to be what we are – despite the objections, complaints, and attempts to tear us down from others. The foolish, ignorant, an...

FREEDOM: No More Cycles of Abuse, Fear or Rejection

July 16, 2023 16:47 - 1 hour - 106 MB

You don’t “cut” cords to the toxic people and things in your life, you cut the cords to your old self-image of being a victim. If fact, you cut them at all – you burn them! If you don’t, those “cords” will seek to “re-attach” themselves to people and things that feed that victim consciousness; it must, it’s in its nature; that consciousness is fighting for its survival.

How Do You Bridge The Gap Between Where You Are And Your Desire To Be?

July 09, 2023 15:41 - 1 hour - 110 MB

Everything changes; all creation comes and goes. However, it seems as though nothing has changed; no matter where you go or whom you are with, you seem to be continuously abandoned, rejected, abused, and constantly failing to realize your dreams.

Remember, what you focus on expands, so...

I've Been Following My Intuition So Why Does My Life Suck?!

April 09, 2023 17:01 - 1 hour - 121 MB

I get it! Everybody is out here telling you to "follow your inner voice," to trust your Divine GPS.  What most people don't know (or do and not telling you) is that your inner voice (AKA: God) is both the light and the dark, both positive and negative energy.
