When was the last time you were bitten and or smitten by Love (I mean Luv)? How many you even know what Love is? Well, love can yield several different meanings depending on who you talk to these days. However, this new Luv, is like a counterfeit drug that’s being weaponized and sold to so many people that it’s playing on the hearts and minds of vulnerable people these days. It’s being sold to literally take out some souls. You really have to be careful out there and get connected to the true source of Love because when you get down to it~God is Love! Once you become disconnected to the source, many can sell you anything these days. So be careful out there because we want you to be healthy and whole in the truest definition of love as outline and in 1 Corinthians 13: 1-13. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/culturedpearl/message

This episode discusses how “Operating in the Spirit of Offense” is nothing more than a bait from the “Accuser” to keep you from fulfilling our destiny. It tarnishes the soul. Whenever you operate in the “Spirit of Offense” it unleashes several low vibrational emotions to keep a person bound and unforgiving. The moderator encourages us to do a personal inventory of offenses of those who we offended and those we have offended, then place it on the altar for deliverance and for divine healing. ❤️🩹 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/culturedpearl/message

In this episode, those are the words the moderator constantly heard echoing in her mind and spirit. As we move forward in this season, it’s important to know who’s voice you’re listening to when your head and heart are out of alignment and you’re feeling torn and confused. In man’s world it has to make sense, but in the spirit world it doesn’t have to make sense, but it will eventually become clear in time and it will all make sense. Action Step: Make it a habit and a practice of getting quiet and still and then you will be able to listen/hear that still soft voice telling you what direction you should go and to take moving forward. Here is a scripture reference to consider. “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” John 10:27--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/culturedpearl/message
Always having the need to defend yourself is a trauma response. Some of that could’ve been learned very early in childhood. It’s time to do some course correcting! It’s a goal to have you emotionally dysregulated and to get distracted and unhinged. Don’t fall for it! Stick to the facts and keep calm. 🌺💕

It is widely known that most women love to talk and when they do it’s like having verbal diarrhea. For many, it’s a trauma response of not being heard enough as a child. There was a saying growing up, girls (children) were to be seen and not heard. Well, the moderator describes how talking too much and not using the power of discernment has caused some major hiccups in her life. She uses a scriptural reference to reflect on what helped to guide her on the path to recovery and self-discovery. “He who has an ear, let them hear what the spirit is saying.” Matt 11:15

This subject has come up a lot lately. When do you know when to leave a relationship? If you come from traditional, nuclear and blended families, you may be familiar with how courting, dating, and vetting a person works. BUT...Not so fast, because things have changed regarding dating and relationships. Since social media and reality shows appeared on the scene, there is something called, "Love at first Sight." I personally abhor that show and others alike because it teaches young adults to fall in love quickly instead of walking in love. While it is possible to have fairytale like experience, you hardly even know yourself let alone love another person so quickly. God is and He's and you and once you find love in you, then you you'll be able to find love outside of yourself. There has to be a better way to date and fall in love or this pseudo-love that everyone as subscribed to. What I am witnessing people are getting into relationships and are unable to leave because they are so in "love" with their mate because they are still attached to the memories of the idealized fairytale. At any rate, the moderator provides an indicator along with the Stages of Changes to show when it's time to leave. I hope this podcast serves beneficial to you. If it has blessed you in anyway, please feel free to share. That's my time!

The buzz or hype word these days that's running rampant on social media and in the community is to affirm and/or be affirming to yourself and others. Well, What does tat mean? Affirm or Affirming by definition, means to state as fact; assert strongly and publicly. The second definition acknowledges; to offer someone emotional support or encouragement. However, the whole difficulty lies in an individuals belief system. People will beincongruent and out of alignment if they cannot identify with the words they speak to/over themselves, let alone to others. This is where I believe the "Imposter Syndrome" is manifested and nurtured in the belief system. When people don't believe what they are saying to themselves and about others it can cause disharmony. This leads to a whole body of shadow work that should be addressed. There is a whole genre works literary and musically entitled "Affirmation Music" to help people feel and hopefully allow the affirmations to be embedded within your soul. That my pearl friends is my hope for you today. I hope this one resonates with you.
Source for definition comes from: Oxford Languages and Dictionary on line.

Whooo-hooo Happy Pod-Anniversary to CPI! Can you believe it's been a whole year since we started this podcast journey together? Thank you for rocking and rolling-it's been quite a ride! Well, this podcast is a little different from the others as it seeks to express spoken words to live by. I love "Spoken Word" and I hope these words speak directly to you as you move through this time and space. At any rate, this episode explores a conversation we as women need to have with ourselves and others about life, relationships and our career choice(s), but it was once taboo to talk about them esp. if the state of mental health had been compromised and were told to by society to put ourselves last. The take away for me is knowing what I knew all along about deception, betrayal and self-betrayal, but refuse to wallow in shame and guilt because that only keeps me stuck. I will acknowledge my part, forgive myself and others and move on without granting access . Again, I hope this episode encourages you to use reflection and course-correction to navigate a different direction while moving forward. With Ease~ Cultured Pearl
