#300: Falling in Love with the Method – Solo Episode

Themes: Love, Relationships, Death, Truth, Alignment, Awakening, Connection, Healing, Authenticity, Boundaries, Self-Worth, Self-Love, Transformation


Summary: 

In this special 300th solo episode, I share a profound realization about love and self-discovery that I recently had when listening to a lecture from Ram Dass. It's all about how we “fall in love with the method” – external triggers that make us feel alive and vibrant. But here's the thing: those methods only awaken something already within us. Join me as we explore the transformative power of choosing ourselves and embracing all of the painful and messy parts of our journeys. Come stand in possibility with me, and make this the moment that everything changes for you.


Discover:

  • Why we fall in love with “the method” and why it often takes us away from experiencing depth
  • The importance of facing your pain instead of running from it
  • The power of choice: choosing to fall in love with yourself rather than the method
