This lingering thought about what to do with my life & my business still felt unanswered. I knew it was time to move on, which I had on many levels, but connections & ties were still there. A lot of what I thought I had worked through was now coming back into the forefront. I went from feeling like I had direction & understanding to complete overwhelm.⁣
⁣
Two paths appeared ahead. They would both lead to the same divinely guided outcome. One would take me on a looping & spiraling path that seemed like more of a climb, although I would be guaranteed financial security. The other path simply disappear over the horizon & I wouldn’t know what was coming. ⁣
⁣
The past me needed to know… I needed an identity, I needed to achieve, to work & build towards something, I needed to be a somebody. ⁣
⁣
It was all these aspects I needed to let go of. Not only did I need to change my mindset towards myself & the value I placed over my life, but it was also the expectation around who I was “supposed to be” that needed to change. ⁣
⁣
What I did in life, who I became, or what I achieved has nothing to do with who I actually am. ⁣
⁣
All my work, my business, projects, the titles & labels, were no longer important to who I genuinely was.⁣
⁣
The path was now crystal clear. I chose to walk away from my business, from all that I’d built, & everything I identified with in order to become who I truly am. ⁣
⁣
I had no idea what would, or will, be coming next but I’m positive it’s nothing like anything I’ve ever experienced.⁣
⁣
I am finally free.

We are all multifaceted beings with so much to learn, to teach, & to share with one another. And when we’re in spiritual alignment with others the energy exchange allows intuition to flow in a synergistic way.⁣
⁣
Tobi Luar of is one of those very special people who I aligned with in 2019. Since then our friendship has only become stronger as we’ve been able to authentically share & collaborate together. ⁣
⁣
In the recent podcast episode, “2022: Rebirth by Light”, we shared a channeled message discussing the energy that’s now available to each of us & what our individual contribution is to the collective. ⁣I’m really excited to be part of this special episode, now steaming on Apple Podcast & Spotify (please click link in bio).

With all that’s gone on in the recent years it’s more important now than ever to take responsibility for ourselves. The one area in life, & most important area, that we do have a choice with is taking care of our mental, emotional, spiritual, & physical being. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
By now most of us have come to the realization that we are living in a world where many different companies, industries, & conglomerates manipulate & withhold the truth about products, foods, & medicines we consume. Even U.S. government administrations meant to create safe & healthy guidelines for what goes into the items we consume, still allow for a certain amount of potentially harmful toxins in our food & everywhere else. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
With all the misleading information floating around we have a responsibility to ourselves to be selective & discerning about what we allow into our bodies, our environment, & our consciousness. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The more intuitive & perceptive we become with with all aspects of ourselves, the more independent & strengthened we are in all areas of our life. When we take this ownership over our life & develop a greater sense of who we are, we become less dependent on outside influences, have greater discernment in our thinking, & are less likely to succumb to the false narratives being fed to us. ⁣⁣⁣⁣

I make time for connection everyday. I cultivate moments where I become intentional & still. These thoughtful moments begin with my eyes closed as I take deep, slow, long breaths & connect to my entire being. As my connection expands beyond me, rooted into the Earth & reaching to the source of all, which I call God, I am filled with light. It’s here on the other side of things that everything becomes clear.

⁣⁣There is no beginning & there is no end, & that is a powerful place to be. Life contains infinite possibilities & I’m only limited by my own beliefs. ⁣
⁣
There is strength that was brought to me in 2021. It’s not something I can explain fully but it’s as though it was time for me to see myself clearer than I ever had. Years prior I was stripped away, peeled back, & fully exposed. I tried to make sense of it all in the only ways I knew how. ⁣
⁣
My memories hold clues to lessons, to healing, & to growth. No matter how many years ago by I always take them with me. ⁣
⁣
2022 feels like weightless strength & balance & I’m ready for everything. ⁣

One of the many things I love about breaking away from my daily routine is the space that opens up allowing me to feel, see, & experience myself & my life in the present moment without restriction. When I actively choose to step away, time literally stands still & the present moment becomes a pause that creates the opportunity to see my life more clearly. ⁣
⁣
What I see & feel is all the abundance that my life is regardless of my current wealth, possessions, achievements, or appearance. In the present moment abundance doesn’t appear in these physical forms but instead can be appreciated & felt on a higher level...it’s more than just a mindset. To be in a state of abundance is to make a conscious choice to experience a limitless life. ⁣
⁣
It’s not that abundance can’t be experienced when we’re busy with work or our day to day life, but those “tasks” cloud our vision as they generally do fall into a timeline & there never seems to be enough of that thing called “time” in a day. Time itself has become a huge self-imposed restriction that limits our experiences & it creates barriers that separate us from seeing our existence from a higher perspective. When time is at the forefront we tend to get caught up in this idea that we haven’t done enough in a day or accomplished enough for the year. “Overtime”, this can create a sense of lack in our outlook & have an adverse effect on our self worth & what we put value to in life. ⁣
⁣
Removing the belief that we are limited in any way in this life allows us to free ourselves from the cycle. Abundance is best experienced in this state of consciousness for all that exists is you in the now. You begin to feel all that you can’t see with your eyes & you begin to appreciate life itself. Every single thing physical & non-physical, every single memory, emotion, & experience ever had comes into focus. Abundance has & always will be, all that you are & all that is.

Pause.  ⁣
You are here. ⁣
Pause.  ⁣
You are here. ⁣
You’ve come so far.  ⁣
The distance doesn’t matter, you’re here now.  ⁣
You didn’t make any wrong turns, you’re here now.  ⁣
You can’t mess this up if you’re here now. ⁣
Give yourself a moment to just be here.

Growing up in the 80’s my understanding of what it meant to be healthy was based around the physical body. Health had nothing to do with mental well-being, other than the idea that the body was a means to feel good about yourself. TV commercials promoted diets & aerobic classes on VHS were super popular. Everyone was drinking canned chocolate shakes to “lose 5 pounds”, feel good about their bodies, & to feel more confident with themselves.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Even at school & doctors visits, “being healthy” was based on physical abilities, fitness tests, & percentile ranges. Everything was geared towards outer appearance & outward capabilities & when you hit the mark you were a winner & feeling good about yourself. There was nothing to cultivate being healthy on the inside or what that even meant. That type of nourishment & self care did not exist in the ideals that were being pushed.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Being a healthy human had everything to do with how my body made me feel about myself… And this perception became tucked away in my young child-subconscious.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Eventually I grew up & started a business. I dove into fitness very young & it had always been a real passion. Working out truly made me feel good (just as I’d learned as a kid). It gave me direction & confidence for a long period of time. But it wasn’t long before healthy eating & fitness wasn’t enough. My body looked & felt amazing & I was healthy in terms of no longer living in a toxic lifestyle cycle, but I was missing something big.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I needed more in terms of feeling good because up to that point the healthy I’d experienced, although monumental from the outside, only scratched the surface of what my soul truly craved.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
This is where my transformation journey really began. It was when I was able to identify the neglected aspects of myself & differentiate what real nourishment was & what was simply temporary fulfillment.

It’s funny how life is with family & those closest to us… They tend to be the most challenging, insightful, loving, & painful, but most rewarding relationships ever. They are the ones that affect us the most & have the power to teach us the most about ourselves, whether they or we realize it or not. ⁣
⁣
I spent most of my life feeling as though my mom & I couldn’t be more opposite. Yes, we had common interests but the way we went about life was just so completely different from one another. Later in my life I revisited this idea & my perception had changed drastically. Because of my experiences & my own personal growth, I was able to see my mom for the woman & individual she truly was. I no longer saw her as just the mother who raised me… I saw a woman who had her own life, giving it her all, who was having her own experiences & trying to figure it out like the rest of us. ⁣
⁣
The woman I saw was a brave & determined soul who wanted to live life to the fullest & to find the happiness within herself that she was missing since childhood. She wanted to feel love, to give love, & to share her spirit with the world. ⁣
⁣
This woman has gone through so much & I’m so proud to call her my mom. My mom has always had this child-like way about her… This carefree, go with the flow, in the moment energy, open to new experiences, continuously learning & growing— it’s the things I admire most about her. ⁣
⁣
This is a very special day because she is the reason I’m me.⁣
Happy Birthday Mom! xoxo⁣

I got in my car & drove. I didn’t have a plan of exactly where I would end up. My intention was to allow myself to just be guided to wherever & whatever was meant for me that day. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I put on my music & everything that played was like a theme song for the adventure I was embarking on. It wasn’t long before the road became my trail & everything around me became a map. I was in the middle of nowhere but everything felt familiar. Just as these thoughts were passing through me, I sped by a sign that read, “Home of the free because of the brave” with a big eagle on it. I was on the right track!  ⁣⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣⁣
Everything began to look like something. It’s like a secret language was being spoken & I knew how to interpret it. Certain symbolism & #’s that had importance & meaning to my life began to appear. There were messages everywhere guiding & assuring me I was going the right way. ⁣⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣⁣
Soon I was at a crossroads & my first instinct was to turn left. I glanced in that direction & rays of sunshine were beaming down through the clouds like spotlights. I turned left… that’s the way. But the clouds began to hide the sun & for a moment I wondered if maybe I’d somehow been misguided…Was this the right way? Still I kept driving & suddenly I saw a familiar street sign for a hiking trail that I’d been to. It was so strange because I’d never driven this way before & had no idea there was an alternate route to get here. But here I was & at that point I knew I’d arrived! I parked & sat there taking it all in. It was drizzling but I didn’t care. I thought to myself, this day couldn’t be more perfect…& then the raindrops hitting my car turned to snow. I looked up & could see every single snowflake each falling out of the clouds. It was magical.  ⁣⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣⁣
The day made perfect sense. The messages came in all forms & allowed me to see things from a broader perspective. I was guided to where I was meant to be & this is how I would continue to experience all of my travels & adventures, I couldn’t do it any other way. I’m so grateful for it all.

Changing the way I looked at food was a slow process over many years. I had to first understand that food was so much more than fuel for my body. Food wasn’t just a tool that could improve my body’s appearance or increase my energy levels. What was revealed to me was that food is highly medicinal & has the capability of supporting illnesses, imbalances, diseases, & the physical & energetic bodies needs. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
“Healthy food to support a healthy body”, is most often associated with the “nutritional value” of food in terms of calories, fats, sugars, carbohydrates, & sodium. Although this is an important aspect to understanding a balanced diet, a truly healthy lifestyle is one that focuses on the energetics of food & nutrition. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
There is a vibrancy in the plants that produce our foods & within these plants are energetic properties that support every aspect of our health. This means that food has an energetic imprint & is made up of so much more than simply “nutritional value”.⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
Overtime we’ve become more disconnected from food & plants as medicine. Pharmaceuticals are used to treat issues first as opposed to analyzing a person’s nutritional needs. I believe all this is the culmination of many years of being misinformed & a lack of education about what we should eat & consume to be in an optional state of health. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
All plants have medicinal properties & most of these plants have active ingredients that provide a medicinal benefit to humans. Crops like vegetables for example contain lots of vitamins, minerals, & alkaloids. Common plants, trees, & herbs also have medicinal properties that are highly beneficial & many of these are often used in cooking, spices, or as herbal teas & vitamins. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Food really does have the ability to heal once we perceive what was always there. As we change our mindset about food & see it as the nourishment & medicine it is, we open ourselves up to discovering & embracing so much more of our own personal needs. ⁣⁣⁣

I believe that we all have our very own “golden hour”… that certain time of day or night that we’re just on point & have the capability of experiencing the most brilliant & enlightening moments. I know for me it’s the morning time but everyone is different. When you align with your natural clock, which all living things do have, there is definitely a different flow to life. ⁣ ⁣
⁣ ⁣
From the sun rising & setting each day to the dark night & the moon phases, the biological cycle we experience is known as the Circadian Rhythm. Light & dark is the primary influence to this natural rhythm & it has an affect on humans, plants, animals, & even microorganisms! The sun & moon’s gravitational pull effects the tides on our planet & since humans are made up of almost 60% water it’s no surprise that we would feel a little something too. The moon is also known to have a powerful effect on our mood, dreams, sleep patterns, & I have noticed this first hand. ⁣ ⁣
⁣ ⁣
I’m one of those people who just naturally wakes up at sunrise & I feel the most balanced & energized with so much clarity in the mornings. When I take full advantage of my morning energy, the rest of my day is also positively effected. I know a lot of people who feel deeply grounded at night & describe the same mental clarity. Make sure you’re also attentive to things like getting enough sleep, hydration, & exposure to blue light before bed, because those all play a roll in the circadian rhythm cycle. No matter what time of the day or night you tend to shine, I’d encourage you to find yours.

Nutrition & eating nutritiously is such a broad topic but there’s one thing we can all agree on, nutrient rich vegetables will always be part of a healthy lifestyle.⁣
⁣
We tend to make the best choices when it comes to food however busy schedules & on-the-go routines can make it difficult to take in wholesome foods that are not overly processed. Vegetables & fruits are the best & only option for fresh-from-the-Earth food, providing vitamins, minerals, & beneficial fiber. ⁣
⁣
Integrating more vegetables into our daily regimen doesn’t have to be complicated. Green smoothie are an easy way to eat your veggies that utilize the whole raw vegetable, retaining the most nutrients. ⁣
⁣
Leafy greens such as spinach, arugula, collard greens, & kale contain high amounts of antioxidants, calcium, & vitamins A, C, & B such as folate, B-6, niacin, & can insolvable fiber which helps you to feel fuller longer. These vitamins support the nervous system, immune system, & help to lower cholesterol. ⁣
⁣
Green smoothies are something I do daily & I personally start my first meal this way. Having that as the first food I put into my body each day is extremely nourishing. I’ve definitely experienced other benefits such more mental clarity & it elevates my mood— I literally feel lighter & more clear minded. The hydration from drinking green smoothies has tons of benefits & I notice it most in my skin/complexion. I always prepare my green smoothies with organic vegetables either fresh or raw frozen (not cooked or heat treated) & filtered water.⁣
⁣
On a side note, juicing is not the same as blending greens into a smoothie, because with juicing you’re only left with the juice of the vegetable. Juicing for cleanses or detoxes doesn’t substitute fresh vegetables & shouldn’t be the only source of nutrients. Store bought juices are high in sugar content & lose nutrients in preservation. There’s just nothing like fresh veggies!

Gratitude… you’ve shown me another perspective. You’ve given my life deeper meaning & purpose. I can the see abundance in everything from the air that I breathe to the water that feeds life. Through you I’m able to see myself beyond the physicality of this world. I’m able to see the qualities that make me unique & to live in my truest authenticity. When you are with me there is nothing that I take for granted. ⁣
⁣
Everything is something to be grateful for.⁣

The holiday of Thanksgiving is a controversial subject but something that most Americans have celebrated since childhood. It’s important to understand the true story & the symbolism behind it all so that when we come together with family & friends sharing with one another in honor of the Native Americans.⁣
⁣
In school we were taught that this American holiday represented a time in history when we were a unified society, at peace with one another, & coming together on common ground. The story told us that settlers were welcomed by the indigenous people while they graciously came together in harmony & a peaceful feast was shared. This story is far from the truth & we know that colonization was actually riddled with death & destruction. There was no peace at the time, the settlers were not saviors, & the indigenous peoples lives were destroyed. The picture that was painted of Thanksgiving as being a time in history we shared with one another just isn’t true, but it’s the past that we can learn from the most so that we can become better… More loving, more caring, & more unified. ⁣
⁣
Native Americans have been suppressed for many years & it wasn’t that long ago that they could even become citizens of the United States! We have come a long way since then however if we continue to celebrate this holiday under the false pretense, we are only further suppressing our society from truly evolving to a unified place. ⁣
⁣
Although my intentions behind celebrating Thanksgiving have changed drastically over the years, acknowledging the past for what it can teach us is the way to a better future. The truth is very important & it’s time to be honest with ourselves about the stories we’ve been told. Instead of celebrating the holiday of Thanksgiving as a time of honoring the past false narrative, we can focus on our present values that truly represent peace & harmony. We can come together in appreciation with gratitude & kindness. We can bring a new story to the table & share a meal that honors the history of the Native American people.

I have this thing with the sun… Sunshine, bright, beautiful, warm, gleaming sunshine. I do have an affinity for the sky & weather in general— but it’s the sun specifically that just speaks to me. Maybe it’s because I’m a Leo, which is very much associated with the sun, or the climate I was born in, August summer in California, it’s all about sunshine. Whatever it is, I found a way to recharge my soul. Even on days I’m reluctant to go outside because of low energy or whatever mood I’m in, the moment I connect with the sun I come alive.  ⁣
 ⁣
It’s something I appreciate everyday. The feeling of warm rays of sunshine on my skin, the way that it sparkles & glistens on water, & the glorious show it puts on at dawn & dusk— It’s the little things!⁣
