God is Bigger Than the Bible
One of the most common responses to my posts about spirituality is the claim that it’s “new age nonsense.” It’s as if some people fail to see God and the very things He expressly teaches us simply because they don’t come with a chapter and verse attached. At the same time, many believe they’re walkingContinueContinue reading “God is Bigger Than the Bible”
Learn from the Enlightenment My Pain Caused Me (Or How Pain Is the Enlightenment)
I wrote this post a year ago, but the words necessary to appropriately convey it took a lot longer to set in. I used to struggle with anxiety, especially around the holidays. Not the run-of-the-mill holiday stress—this was the kind of anxiety that wrapped itself around my chest, whispering, “Someone’s going to die. Something terribleContinueContinue reading “Learn from the Enlightenment My Pain Caused Me (Or How Pain Is the Enlightenment)”

Actions and Consequences: A Universal Truth Across Belief Systems
I recently found myself facing the difficult realization that I needed to release someone—for the highest good of both of us. It’s never easy when God calls us to turn away from someone we care about deeply, especially when every part of us wants to hold on. But sometimes, no matter how much we careContinueContinue reading “Actions and Consequences: A Universal Truth Across Belief Systems”
Natalie Trayling: The Soulful Symphony of Living for Purpose
Recently, while planning posts for the Twin Tree Project, we clicked play on one of YouTube’s “recommended for you” music playlists. A few songs in, a particular piece of music captured our attention. The playlist played softly in the background, but as this piece built in intensity, it felt as though the loving energy ofContinueContinue reading “Natalie Trayling: The Soulful Symphony of Living for Purpose”
The Strength in Presence: Lessons of Duality, Forgiveness, and Growth
Letting Go and Learning the Hard Way Letting go has never been easy for me. Over the years, I’ve had to say goodbye to many people—some to death, and others who are still very much alive.

Embracing Your Authentic Self: Lessons from Pain, Growth, and Letting Go
Life is a series of choices, a balancing act between who we are and who the world tells us we should be. For many of us, the journey to authenticity begins with pain. It’s not the kind of pain that destroys us—though it may feel like it at times—but the kind that reshapes us, callingContinueContinue reading “Embracing Your Authentic Self: Lessons from Pain, Growth, and Letting Go”
