In this episode, we discuss the idea of aligning with life's flow, rather than fighting against it, a shift in perspective that promises to allow more joy, efficiency, and being present in daily life. We open up about the journey from addiction to freedom, emphasizing the importance of surrendering to a higher power and accepting life's plan.

This conversation is both relatable and inspiring, as we discuss the challenges of balancing personal goals with the unexpected events that life throws our way. Our host, David Bayer, shares practical examples from his own life, like the joy of piano shopping with family, to illustrate how letting go of rigid plans can lead to unexpected blessings.

Memorable Quotes

"I'm interested in working with what God puts in front of me. Sometimes God puts in front of me an idea or an inspiration. And it's my job to take courageous action around it because it triggers a lot of my limiting beliefs and my fears."

"What I'm saying is, the plan is what's showing up on a day-to-day basis. If you bring your full energy and attention and presence and love to whatever shows up, even when it seems like it's a problem, your full presence will actually transform that problem into the divine plan."

"Einstein said something really interesting. He said, we cannot solve a problem with the same level of energy that created it. What he was basically saying is, the solution is a different frequency than the problem."
