Start Your Transformation NowAre you more awake right this moment, or are you more awake when you’re “sleeping?”If you’re like most people you’re going to say you’re more awake right now, and that’s just not true.When you’re sleeping, you’re pure unfettered consciousness. Meaning, you are not trapped by the belief systems that you have learned to condition yourself to believe over the years.You can literally transform your life when you learn to use “dreamtime,” to heal, attract, evolve, access higher wisdom, and to guide your life.Truth be told, and this is hard for many to understand, being awake, like now as you’re reading this, and dreamtime are the same. It’s just a matter of advanced and higher awareness to understand this.In this episode we dive into: Everyone dreams even though many don’t remember Many great achievers used “dreamtime” to discover their inventions and innovations. How you problem solve in dreamtime. What you have to do to heal yourself in dreamtime. Simple ways to decipher dreams At the end of this episode, you will come to realize that dreamtime is going to be the most valuable part of your day because you can use it to create anything that you want. And of every episode I have created or will ever create, when you learn to “work and use’ dreamtime, you’ll truly be living from your highest potential as a being.Mentioned Resources:The Kybalion’s “The Seven Cosmic Laws”The first cosmic law is, everything in the universe is divine mind.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_KybalionDouble-slit ExperimentWe as observers of the universe affect the material universe.Watch YouTube VideoLet's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE? If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowIn this episode of Conversations with a Sorcerer, I dive into profound insights on the true purpose of life, inspired by my dialogue with Don Xavier. Over the years, so many people have asked me, “What is my purpose?” In this episode, I unpack the deeper meaning of life beyond careers and material pursuits, focusing on growth, evolution, and spiritual exchange. Don Javier shared that our purpose isn’t tied to our vocations but lies in gaining seniority, energy, and deeper knowing. Using vivid metaphors like the “hard drive of life” and exploring the concept of energy exchange, I share transformative perspectives on evolving beyond the ego and contributing to the collective soul's journey. I want you to think about this: life isn’t a gift—it’s a loan. In this episode, I’ll help you uncover how you can leave this life with more than you came with. Let’s explore your soul’s purpose and embrace transformation together.  What You’ll Discover in This Episode:  What is Seniority? (02:23): Understanding seniority as the growth of personal power and knowing in your soul's journey.  The Hard Drive of Life (06:23): A metaphor for the knowledge and energy you bring into each incarnation.  Energy Exchange and Abundance (15:35): How the principle of giving and receiving enriches our lives and fulfills our purpose.  The Misconception of Purpose (22:42): Why your job or career is not your true purpose and how to discover the real meaning.  Life as a Loan, Not a Gift (30:11): How to repay life with “interest” through growth, service, and contribution.  Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway: Life is a loan, not a gift. The purpose of your existence is to leave with more than you arrived—more energy, knowing, and spiritual growth. By focusing on selfless exchange and the evolution of your soul, you transform not just your life but the collective consciousness.Let's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowIn this episode you'll discover why you’ve worked really hard, put in all the effort, the hours, the blood sweat and tears and you’re still not getting the results you want. If you’re like most people you are working backwards—working from the “have do be” model. If I had the money then I could hire someone and grow my business. This is a broken model! The model that you want to start working from is what I call “be do have” model. “Who or how do I have to be to do the things that I choose to do to have the success that I want?”In this episode I discuss: Are you working from an identity that sabotages you? How perfectionism didn’t stop me from getting this podcast out How most people are working backwards The “be do have” model (if you’re not using this, you’re sabotaging yourself!) Why people are setting goals in the wrong way The reason you haven’t created what you want to create in life Who are you really? Where were you before you landed on this planet?

Start Your Transformation NowHow many times have you set goals for yourself only to find that you’re right back into your old patterns and you never achieve what you think that you want?If you’re like most people, that is your exact pattern: Wanting a goal but not achieving it because you can’t shake loose of your old patterns and habits.In the first sentence I said, “What you think that you want.” What you think that you want is not what you get because you get your habits and they don’t come from the “thinking” part of your brain.In this episode I talk about:[2:44] The three largest parts of your brain and how they function[10:38] How your reptilian brain sabotages your goals[12:19] Why your reptilian brain operates from survival and predictability[13:09] Why what you think you want is usually not what you get[15:09] And how to dissociate from the reptilian brain habitsI have created episodes on habits but this one dives deeper into the exact way the reptilian brain sabotages your goals and what you think that you want.Transformational TakeawayYour goals come from your prefrontal cortex “thinking” brain and your habits come from your reptilian brain. They battle each other and you have to disassociate from your reptilian brain habits.Let's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.
