Happy Birthday To Me!

Welcome back to the podcast! This is the second episode of the week, and it's a special one because it's the my 39th birthday. 38 was the year I realized that I lived most of my life in fear and I was pretty much living like a robot who was programmed how to think. I set out to find answers to my questions and discovered that we are all here to share our hearts, visions, gifts, and talents. Each one of us has a unique frequency or medicine for the world. However, at some point in time, everyone has felt the feeling of lack, insufficiency, and not being enough. If we were all born perfect, then at what point did we become less than? I've gone through some of roughest waves of emotions, but I chose to go through those feelings because I knew that I was powerful, benevolent, kind, loving, and had the ability to create a fulfilling life so I was determined to get to the bottom of whatever had me blocked.

In this episode, I talk a personal story that I never fully shared before. I discuss a period in my 20s after having my first son and becoming a single mother where I had to relinquish control and hand it over to God and the universe. I had to let go of whatever expectations or attachments I made and just surrender.

I also dive into how I was raised in an environment where traditionally masculine energy was encouraged and how that resulted in traits such as excessive control and aggression, as a way of coping with challenges or trauma as I got older.

Another topic I dive into is my experience with pain and heartache. Contrary to popular belief, it doesn't have to be a scary experience. Instead, it serves as a reminder of our shared humanity and our ability to connect with ourselves on a deeper level. The process of embracing pain can be a powerful catalyst for transformation, ultimately pushing us to grow and evolve.

While it may seem like an overwhelming experience in the moment, it's important to remember that pain is temporary. It has the ability to teach us valuable lessons about ourselves, the world around us, and the people we share it with. Even the struggles we face today can act as a source of strength tomorrow. By staying true to yourself and your values, you can emerge from difficult times with newfound clarity and purpose.

When you embrace your pain, it has the ability to transform you into a more authentic and compassionate individual. It allows you to develop the resilience necessary to navigate future challenges, ultimately leading you towards a more fulfilling life.

How do we move past feeling stuck and embrace our true freedom. Have you ever felt overwhelmed by all the options life has to offer? Are you afraid of making a wrong decision?

When we're born, we have no real freedom because there's not really any other choice. We can't communicate beyond crying, and we can't even hold up our own heads. All that's left is for us to try and adapt to live in this world in the bodies we were born into.

After living most of your life with someone else deciding what you should do or eat, suddenly having free will was overwhelming!

We also discuss the importance of embracing change to live a more fulfilling life. It's common to fear the unknown and resist change, but this can leave us stuck in situations that no longer serve us.

I talk about how this mindset can lead to living a materialistic life, where we seek safety in possessions that ultimately bring little joy or excitement.

Instead, we become exhausted from working multiple jobs just to sustain this lifestyle, or turn to credit cards to keep up. Resisting Change isn't just Resisting life - Resisting change can lead to burn out, illness, and feeling lifeless. At least, that's what happened to me.

Have you ever felt attacked after hearing someone say something that had nothing to do with you? Maybe it wasn't even relevant to you, but something in their words made your defensive walls go up.

When we start to really understand our feelings and why they are present in our lives, it can be incredibly freeing. During a recent podcast, I heard someone speak about the idea that each of us is our own universe. This resonated deeply with me because for the longest time I'd been trying to fit myself into roles where I had to act a certain way and be someone else entirely. When I heard this, I realized that all I needed to do was activate my desired characters and let this part of me out - the version of me that's been kept inside for so long.

These moments can completely rock your world and shift life in an entirely new direction. Everything suddenly makes sense - no matter how random or unexpected it may be.

Understanding why your feelings are present in your life can add immense freedom and clarity. Acknowledging who you truly want to be can help unlock parts of yourself that have been held back.

Unexpected moments or conversations can bring newfound clarity that leads to positive change.

Living in the present can be difficult, particularly when you are transitioning from one part of your life to another. This period can feel like a void and it can be intimidating, as we don’t know how to approach situations or feelings that may arise during this time. The key is to embrace this void and accept whatever comes your way, knowing that it will eventually pass.

When faced with difficult emotions or situations, we tend to try and ignore them in order not to bring them into our future lives. But by allowing ourselves to feel these emotions and take the necessary steps towards dealing with them in the present moment, we don’t have to worry about carrying them around for days or weeks on end. We can learn from our experiences, grow and heal more quickly to transform those emotions by rewriting the story we told ourselves.

Living in the present means embracing all aspects of ourselves - both past and future - so that we can move forward without being weighed down by regret or fear of the unknown.

We all have an inner child that is scared and uncertain about the future. But no matter how intimidating the outside world can be, you are never alone. You have the strength to carry yourself through tough times, you just need to rely on your own courage and capabilities.

When life gets too hard, take a minute to appreciate how far you’ve come and remind yourself that you are capable of getting through anything. Embrace your vulnerabilities and seek out the lessons in them; be brave, be courageous and love yourself for it.

This is a concept that was introduced to me by Shoshanna Raven: https://www.instagram.com/shoshanna_raven/

I also talk about the concept of investing energy and emotions in various aspects of life and how to take inventory of where you're investing, as every investment either makes you more or leaves you less.

Another important topic I discuss is self-expression and how it's a powerful tool that we often underestimate. Journaling has become increasingly popular as a means of manifesting our inner thoughts and feelings into the world. However, it's essential to remember that journaling is just one way to express ourselves.

We can also dance, create art, sing, play sports or engage in any activity that elevates our energy and happiness levels. It's crucial to invest in these types of activities regularly because they help us calibrate to a higher frequency.

If you're in a season of life that feels challenging or unenjoyable, remember that seasons always change. It's okay to feel the emotions associated with difficult times, but don't dwell on them. Instead, focus on expressing yourself through positive activities and connecting with others who understand what you're going through.

I got you.

Remembering Our Childhood Selves

We all have a child inside us that still needs love and support. When was the last time you looked back at your childhood self and considered how they would feel about who you are today? In today's episode I talk about the importance of remembering the dreams and fears we had as children.

Holding onto Bitterness

Sometimes, we hold onto bitterness from past experiences that shape how we view ourselves today. Let's explore how holding onto these negative feelings can hold us back from achieving our goals and finding happiness.

Moving Forward with Appreciation

By honoring our past selves, even the parts that were difficult or challenging, we can find the strength to move forward with appreciation for where we've been and excitement for where we're going. Let go of bitterness and embrace gratitude for all parts of ourselves.

Learning from History

By examining our past experiences, we can look for patterns that have been holding us back. From there, we explore ways to break these patterns so we can finally move on.

Remembering our past selves is an important part of personal growth. By showing love and appreciation for who we used to be, even during difficult times, we can find the strength to keep moving forward towards a brighter future.

I don't like that programming at all -- so it was time for an upgrade.

In today's episode, I talk about how I got forced into homeschooling my daughter even though I didn't want to. I talk about how the programming in our life is simply a suggestion someone made one day to keep things controlled and in order which is fine so long as we know it's not always necessary. These programs are meant to suggest order. They are not rules. Most of them were created during times when the world was a lot different than it is now and it's our own responsibilities to make sure our hardware is up to date.

Even if you don't ever plan to homeschool and even if you don't have kids, I hope you listen to today's episode because I know there's a message in there that your heart is meant to hear.

You don't have to be.

In today's episode, I talk about how it's easy to feel stuck.. Sometimes it feels like you're gasping for air but can't catch a break... Maybe it's because a fish will always suffocate when convinced it should fly.. just as a bird will always drown when convinced it should live under water.

You are who you are.. and if you don't know how to figure out who that is, maybe I can help you find out. Survival is when you're forced to live through conditions that aren't ideal for you to thrive. You don't need to change. Your conditions do.PS.

When I was younger, I used to feel like I was in a constant rush to find answers. It felt like society was telling me that I should have everything figured out by a certain age and that if I didn't, I was falling behind. This created a lot of stress and pressure that led to me making some impulsive decisions.

However, I've since learned that rushing to find answers is not always the best approach. Instead, it's often wiser to slow down and take the time to gain clarity. When we rush, we often make guesses and allow ourselves to get frustrated and upset when we guess wrong. However, when we slow down and listen to our intuition, we can usually find the answers we're looking for. Moreover, rushing rarely leads to lasting happiness or fulfillment. So instead of constantly chasing after the next thing, take a step back and appreciate the present moment. Learn to listen to your heart and trust that everything will work out in its own time.

In today's episode, I take you on my Podcast Birthing Journey and what realizations I made during that process.

Why do we struggle to describe ourselves as perfect? What does perfect even mean and who gets to decide the definition? When did considering yourself perfect become conceited and who made up the rumour that perfection was unattainable. They lied.

In today's episode, I talk about how doing a puzzle, made me realize the moment we stopped being perfect.

From the minute we are born we find love in things like our mother’s touch, our father’s eyes, and the joy we hear in everyone’s voices as they greet us for the first time.

But what we don’t realize is that what we actually see & feel is our own reflection of our own energy. We ARE the love. We are born with bodies that allow us to bring our love into a world that so desperately needs it. 

As we get older and life happens, we find ourselves in situations where love feels like it’s fading but what we don’t realize.. is that the only time love fades is when it’s given away and lost... but society makes us believe that’s what we’re supposed to do… why?

When you give something away, it no longer belongs to you and it becomes lost. Love that’s lost is better known as sadness.  

In the Lovelasting podcast, we talk about all the things... but the mission, the purpose and the power behind everything I say... is to make you realize that it isn’t selfish to take back all the love you gave away because only THEN can you share it in it’s most powerful form. 

In other words.. The Lovelasting Podcast is your weekly reminder to stop giving your love away… because the only person who knows what to do with it is the same person who needs it the most —- and that’s YOU ❤️

Love is meant to be shared... not given away.

Because only then.. can Love Last.
