The Bridge: The Bridge lies between the life you have, and the life you want. You will need to build your own bridge before you can cross it, and in the process, you will transform your life. To get where you are going, however, you must first recognize where you are. Join me each week to step back from the clutter and rush of daily life; to pause, long enough to see what is beyond the distractions from a new perspective, that you may look ahead, and choose your path with clarity. Leave behind everything you know, and embark on the journey of becoming.

We all inherit a legacy from those who came before us, as individuals, as a family, and as the One Tribe of Humanity. Some of what we inherit is physical, and can be touched and shifted with our hands, but most of it is invisible, intangible, carried inside of us and only showing itself when we find a reason to stop and unpack it. Our shared inheritance is the Earth, and today’s Earth is the combined legacy of how everyone on the planet lived yesterday. In this episode, I invite you to unpack the inheritance that you have been handed, examine what you find, and choose how you will live from here on.

Beneath The Mask:
Discovering The Real You
We all end up wearing masks as we go through life, but sometimes we are fooled into believing that the mask we wear is our real self. What is the mask covering up? Do you even like the mask you wear?

It’s been hidden in plain sight this whole time! Connecting with your true self, and your life purpose, is the real journey of enlightenment. It strips away your blinders and brings the clarity which will allow you to live more consciously.

The Bridge
Which Wolf Are You Feeding?
In order to create a new way of life, we each must build a bridge to what we want, and then we must walk across it. We manifest the life we want by living it.
We all have two wolves living inside us: an angry wolf , and a happy wolf, and we can only feed one of them at a time. Which wolf are you feeding inside you: the happy wolf or the angry wolf? These wolves can act as our guides in life if we answer this question honestly, and your direction will become clear: feeding the happy wolf leads us toward what we want, and feeding the angry wolf leads us back to what we want to leave behind. The choice is yours.
