The D-Word: Dodging or Discernment?

As long time readers have already noticed, for the past couple of weeks I haven’t posted much. I’m aware—even I have noticed my own silence in almost uncomfortable ways, and felt that familiar tug: “Shouldn’t I be posting something? Shouldn’t I be showing up more?” But as I shared in my last blog post (andContinueContinue reading “The D-Word: Dodging or Discernment?”

Beyond the Surface: The Truth About Your Spiritual Presence | “Authenticity Unveiled” Series

In the 3D reality we inhabit, image is everything. From social media profiles to first impressions, people go to great lengths to curate how they are perceived.

Walking in Integrity: Why You Were Called to Stand Out

I came across a post on X today that deeply resonated with me. It perfectly articulated something I’ve been reflecting on (and sharing with you, from other perspectives) a lot lately—how once we awaken, grow, or “level up,” we often feel like we no longer fit in.

The Practice of Happiness: A Foundational Principle for 2025

As we enter a new year, it’s almost impossible to escape the tidal wave of resolutions. Everywhere, people are declaring what they won’t do, how they’ll “fix” themselves, and which habits they’ll break.

When God Says “No”

We’ve all heard the saying: “God always answers, even when the answer is no.” Sometimes, you’ll hear it in more digestible, encouraging words, like, “Rejection is protection,” a common motto among the “new age” community. For years, I heard it too, but it never really resonated. I didn’t truly understand it until I experienced oneContinueContinue reading “When God Says “No””
