(00:00):
welcome to shift your path podcast
I hope that you are ready to shift
over the past years I've tried to fight myself
prevent myself from being my true self

(00:21):
and I'm sure
there are people on here that are struggling with that
as well the majority of people are not themselves
the majority of people on earth right now
are wearing some type of mask
some type of illusion
their mind is ingrain with certain beliefs
that are bogging their true self down

(00:44):
that are allowing them to be someone that they are not
and it's so common
and I've I've personally fought the good fight
the immense struggle
the immense suffering

(01:05):
the immense pain of being someone that you are not
someone that you don't wish to be
someone that you don't desire to be
but you have adapted to become this person
because of your childhood
because of your subconscious beliefs
ages 0 to 7 because of all the experiences

(01:30):
compiled within your cellular memory
within your own subconscious mind
within your even conscious reasoning mind
able to interpret at this time
because you have became aware of it
each belief that is not who you are
shows up like a trickle of negativity

(01:51):
in the ego wants to fight it
the ego wants to punch you in the face
to keep you from showing who you really are
behind this belief
behind this illusion behind this fear

(02:12):
and that's all it really is
is a fear and the ego will do everything
in its power to keep its hold on you
I know I've personally experienced that
when you get inside your own head
and there's so much chatter in the mind
and you can't get it to shut up

(02:33):
it's like what if this this
this this
this this
and this
before you know it
you're thinking the absolute worst scenario
you're placing focus
where you don't wanna place focus
you don't wanna place this energy
but because of your ingrained beliefs
because of what you have not resolved within you

(02:56):
because of your trauma response
because of your nervous system
because of your body producing the same chemicals
the same trauma response
you keep doing the same shit over again
and for me personally
I finally just got to this point where

(03:19):
after so much healing work
after so many crying nights
after so many sleepless nights
after screaming into a pillow
after doing absolutely everything to try and resist
myself today
I just decided that it was going to be over for me

(03:40):
I was just going to be done with that shit
because fear is just fear
and that fear is only an illusion
and when we have these fears
when we have these negative beliefs
it shapes us to the person we are acting as
if the person we are acting as

(04:03):
as this character of Jane Doe
John Doe
whatever you wanna call yourself in this matrix
with this personality that you have developed with
which is not even you
I'll say it again it's not even you
you are what you are you are what you are

(04:26):
and what you are is the universe itself
you are the I am frequency of everything
I am everything I am nothing
I am this I am that
I am body this at this time
and I am this at this time
and I am this other thing at this other time
and I am body this at another time

(04:47):
which simply means I am always everything
and I am always nothing paradoxically
so this perceived persona that you are
these perceived illusions that you think you are
you are not
and I'll tell you a reason

(05:09):
why I say that it's like this
you reach in your closet
and you put 10 different masks on your face
those masks get very heavy
all you wanna do is take them off your face
to reveal who you truly are
because this is all you were designed to be
all you were born to be
but because you have been subconsciously programmed

(05:31):
because of your trauma because of your trauma response
because of your inflexibility
to see yourself as how powerful that you are
you are seeing yourselves from a fixed identity point
meaning when you see yourself in the mirror

(05:53):
you are seeing this is who I am
this is who I've always been
which is not true it is
but it isn't it
may be your perception of truth at that moment in time
because you believe it to be true
you believe this is all you are
but it's not true
you have developed this identity

(06:16):
you have developed these patterns
you have developed these false illusions
these false beliefs
you have become this chameleon of a version of yourself
that you never were meant to be
because it isn't who you truly are

(06:37):
if you are being someone you are not
you were never meant to be that person
plain and simple
we are designed with this essence that we have
personally every person has their own unique essence
unique soul essence

(06:59):
and when we deviate from our own soul
from our own frequency
and we pretend to play a character
in this universal movie that we are not
we become very unhappy
we become very depressed
some things just don't add up to you anymore

(07:22):
they just aren't making fucking sense anymore
I'll give you an example you may wonder
like I did when I had my big
intense spiritual awakening
which continues to get bigger every single day
but I digress
when I had my intense spiritual awakening back in 2,019

(07:42):
suddenly one day I just woke the fuck up
I had this healing session
and when I woke up
I started to see everything differently
I started to see reality as what it was
I started to break down everything that wasn't me

(08:06):
and I resisted and I fought like hell
I put one of the greatest fights ever into
not allowing the true version of myself
to be embodied
who I was meant to be and this cause depression
this cause sadness this cause anxiety
fear
not wanting to be alive

(08:28):
not wanting to be in this reality
and feeling meaningless and helpless and hopeless
and suddenly my relationships decide they
let me rephrase that
my relationship started to fall apart
I knew back in those relationships that
something was not clicking

(08:50):
something was not adding up
this was not true love this was not compassion
this was not understanding
this wasn't unconditional love that I was receiving
in this on and off relationship that I was having
just to give a backstory
at the very beginning of this relationship
I had decided that

(09:13):
I just wanted to be friends with a certain individual
and not longer after that
they tried to kill the earth
still kind of hard to say at this point
but they threatened to kill themselves
shortly after that because I was honest
and said I was going to see other people

(09:34):
and yeah so from the jump
this relationship was shit
but I had fought to keep it together
over all these years and the big question is why
people don't understand why
why do people do this
why do people accept this behavior
I'll tell you exactly why
it's because you have an unravel

(09:56):
the subconscious layers within your own mind
you haven't unraveled
the fact that you may feel unworthy
not enough that you have to people please
that you have to mitigate tension
you have to ease people's tension
in order for their not to be conflict
or you have to not get your needs met

(10:18):
but attend to everyone else's needs
or that you just want others to fill your cup up
that was never fulfilled truly in childhood
maybe you didn't feel loved and childhood
maybe you didn't feel wanted
maybe you didn't feel enough
maybe you felt disrespected
maybe you felt violated

(10:39):
maybe you felt unsafe and so
everything from this childhood version of you
begins to break down because it isn't who you are
it's who you have developed yourself to become
due to your family's expectations
your society's expectations

(11:00):
where you live what people have told you
what you have seen what you have heard
all of it
all of it and as the mind is such a sponge
you are absorbing these things
and so when you hit a certain point in your life
when you realize you are not being yourself
everything begins to break down

(11:23):
the shadow within you begins to break down
the darkness within you begins to break down
and what I mean by darkness
if we are going for the typical definition of darkness
like something dark or evil or negative
just the general um

(11:46):
diagnosis as to what darkness would actually mean
to the majority of people
if we are going by that then everything negative
everything fear based
everything trauma based within your body
is being purged out of you 1
because you don't need it
any longer

(12:07):
you're what you're ready to become aware and 2
it's not who you are
it's never who you were
and it's not who you are meant to be
it is not who you are meant to become
we're looking
for the external
to give us answers on who we should become
but the answer lies within us

(12:29):
who do we have to not become
what mass do I have to take off
what beliefs must I change
how must I redefine my experience and my story
how must I remove the layers

(12:50):
reveal my true fucking face
and be the essence that I was born to be
this is the question you should be asking yourselves
it's not looking to the external waiting for an answer
what do I become I'm not happy
my life is breaking down what who do I become
what do I be

(13:12):
you start working on yourself
you start changing things
you stop believing that you are a disemboured creator
that you are weak that you are helpless
that you are powerless
and even if you have to look to the external source
source energy god energy
the universe whatever
whatever name

(13:32):
whatever thousand names you can come up with
for the same source of energy
whatever it is for you you can ask that external source
for the help for the assistance
it's always there it's always available
but the real true power comes from within you
the real true power comes from the source within

(13:54):
which is already the source of the external as well
let me rephrase that I know somebody got confused there
everything is the source you are the source
everything you see and perceive of on the external
and everything you can't see
and can't perceive of on the external
is the source
so that includes you as well

(14:15):
you are the source energy as well
yes you are the source energy as well you yes
continuing on after I've explained that
being yourself is the greatest gift that you can give
yourself this is how you cut through life
with a swift army knife
I don't know why I just said that

(14:37):
but I used to be in the army
for some of you that may resonate with that
it was a different life I was a different person
I was completely different in every way
and that life honestly doesn't seem real anymore

(14:57):
and I'll tell you why working that job in the army
first of all
I did it just to get out of some poor circumstances
to literally remove myself from a negative situation
a negative environment
and that's how I ended up in the army
so I was making my decisions based on fear

(15:19):
based on trauma
and as soon as I sign the papers
I felt it instantly I was like
something's not right
I wish I could go back and not sign that paperwork
it was a sickening feeling within
and it's not that everybody in the army is a bad person

(15:41):
of course not of absolutely not
it just meant to me that
this was not a decision based on my own heart
I wasn't making the decision from my heart
I was making the decision from fear
I was making the decisions in my life at that time

(16:04):
based on pure fear pure trauma
pure flight or flight response
pure nervous system shut down
pure emotional numbness and pure closing of my heart
because even though the heart never went away

(16:24):
even though it's always still there
we can
shield ourselves from ever letting that heart open
in certain situations
and that's exactly what I did
so I was living from this space of my childhood
subconscious mind all those beliefs

(16:45):
all my experiences and that's what LED to that choice
and for a short amount of time
I enjoyed it I enjoyed the training
I enjoyed the training because it
allowed me a break from
the trauma that I was already experiencing
that's why I liked it and most people would say
so you're in this boot camp training or whatever

(17:08):
and you're doing all this hard shit
right and that was less stressful for you
that was less traumatic yes
yes it was
and I told myself before I left that at least this time
if people are talking down to me
if people are yelling and screaming in my face

(17:30):
at least I'll get paid for it
I wasn't even worried about that
I know
a lot of people get worried about drill sergeants
being up in their face and stuff
they worry about
you know messing up fucking up
that was the least of my worries
this already felt normal to me
so yeah that was less stressful for a while

(17:50):
but once I was in
my patterns of having a very narcissistic controlling
domineering authority figure
showed up in every boss
and all the co workers that had a higher rank than me

(18:11):
and later on I realized that I just wasn't that
I wasn't that person
meaning I always saw people as equals
regardless of their gender
their religion or whatever it is
whatever it is
I just see people the same as

(18:33):
I see every person the same
and I always have
and so this war like nature this conflict like nature
I just I couldn't do it
it wasn't who I was
but I was disconnected from my own heart
I never had to go to war and
and I never had to be involved in anything

(18:55):
anything that I couldn't recover from or to say that
because there were
certain things that could have happened to me
that I'm not sure I would have recovered from
and
one of those things would be killing another person
and I know people have different opinions on that
and you're welcome to your own opinion

(19:17):
I'm not discounting that
I'm not discounting anyone's opinion on this in fact
I do not give a shit I absolutely
I absolutely do not give an
absolute fuck about what anyone's opinion is
it's their opinion I don't care
but as far as my opinion about this

(19:39):
is that with my heart with with the way I am
I never would want to kill someone
unless I was being threatened in a very severe way
where it had to be done like for example
somebody comes in my house
and they have a knife to my throat
or they have a gun pointed at me

(20:01):
then okay yeah
I believe in self defense yeah I do but
simply
just going in another country and hurting someone else
because there's conflict with political parties
it I just couldn't get over that
I just know so anyway every time I went to drill

(20:25):
I absolutely hated it
I got that sick feeling in my stomach
and this was not even when being in a war zone
this was just simply for the fact that
this job was not aligned with my heart
just like the relationships weren't aligned
the job wasn't aligned guess what

(20:48):
because I wasn't aligned with myself at all
which is why it feels strange
which is why it feels illusionary looking bad
being that person because I'm not that person now
I'm sure so many parallel reality

(21:09):
versions of me
went through that and experienced it in their own way
and god bless them but right now
I'm at this time in my life where many of you are
I feel like
are coming to this moment
are coming to this pivotal moment
where it is time to be who you are

(21:30):
and you know this
if you're severely unhappy
severely depressed high anxiety
have no motivation or enthusiasm
and wondering why the fuck you are living this life
that you are living right now
and you want it to change
you want to start a new you want this old life to end

(21:52):
then that's how you know
cause everything is breaking down
it's breaking down within you
to show you who you are not
so you can become who you were meant to be
often society and school
and our parents
tell us that we're at a certain point as a child
and we have to develop into a certain way

(22:15):
and become a certain person
when that was never the case at all
it is in fact quite the opposite
if anything
you have to unlearn everything that you are not
as a child and growing up
everything that you absorb that you are not
you have to strip it from you

(22:35):
and there lies the gold you
the essence of your soul
that you were always truly meant
to be that you were always truly meant to embody
that has never left you that is simply waiting
waiting knocking
banging screaming

(22:57):
waiting for you to let everything go that isn't you
so you can simply
just be the sole essence that you were designed to be
from this all knowing source of consciousness
of energy of vibration
the all that is the everything that will ever exist

(23:19):
the all of everything
the I am nothing and I am everything
I am this and I am that that
that essence that you were designed to be
that you were born to be
that is all you ever have to be
and it's such a misconception
that we must develop into this false persona

(23:41):
this false illusion of self
and live our lives miserably
because I can tell you first hand that I've done this
I've done a lot of things in my life
and most of the ones that I didn't prefer
okay let me rephrase that
my phone is I can't hold my phone there anymore

(24:04):
hold on everything that I did not prefer
that I did not desire was never who I was
was never a place of authenticity
of who this true
core essence being you see in front of you actually is
and it's not for anyone

(24:25):
yes you heard me say that
for anyone there is no exceptions
if you are choosing to live
and undesired and preferable life
you are choosing this
the reason you are choosing this
the negative beliefs within you
within your subconscious that you don't know are there

(24:46):
that you are oblivious to
but are controlling in ruling your life
like little tantrum filled minions running around
and you're dealing with the mess
now I'm not saying that the source energy
the universe etc
is going to let you live out

(25:07):
all of your negative beliefs
to the worst possible extent
I know that's not true for me
if it was the truth
I can tell you I would have had a horrible life
horrible
as in every moment would have been trauma filled
every moment would have been dark
every moment would have been filled with

(25:28):
some type of darkness every single moment
if if
the source energy had not stepped in
and intervened on my behalf
and it intervenes on everybody's behalf
because you are the source energy
you are your own behalf acting upon your own behalf
your soul essence your source energy within

(25:51):
and the source energy of everything
is allowing you to have Grace here
we are not being penalized
we are not being judged
but we are living out these patterns
until we change them
until everything starts to break down
so we have the opportunity for change

(26:11):
and a method that I discovered was a et method
based on the assesani rays of the Shars people
society however you wish to rephrase it
of allowing yourself to feel
the feelings of a belief

(26:32):
let's say you feel completely unworthy
completely not enough completely unloved
you feel those feelings by feeling it from your heart
and you allow it to come to the surface
you acknowledge it
you accept it
you welcome it
but you don't have to accept it as your truth

(26:55):
and this is the opposite spectrum here
is that you look at it from the opposite polarity
for example I feel I'm not enough
I feel I'm not worthy I feel I'm not loved
I am unconditionally loved
I am unconditionally worthy
I'm unconditionally enough
and you feel within your heart
that feeling of how it makes you feel

(27:19):
and charging these new beliefs
with an energy of excitement
with the vibration and frequency of excitement
instantly instantly allows you to shift
and I continue to do this every single day
and trust me I can see within my own pictures of myself
I don't look like the same person

(27:41):
I know that may sound a little crazy
but maybe it's because I am so self aware
of what I shifted out of the week before
two weeks before three weeks before
a month before that
when I compare the picture side by side
I can see that maybe it's because I can read energy

(28:02):
but most likely it's because I'm very self aware
and I can tell the physical changes
my facial structure is beginning to change
from those earlier pictures
I'm starting to look younger
I'm starting to be more myself
and so I just know because life is getting easier

(28:23):
right life is getting easier
more at ease more at peace
more joy more bliss
and why is it doing this
because I have shifted
because I have shifted out of those negative beliefs
because I am allowing myself
to let go of everything that isn't me

(28:47):
and become everything I was meant to be
and this shifting method
I've talked about on my podcast
on my YouTube there's a there's a video there
instantaneous shifting method
it is literally so easy and so simple
that it seems mind bottling to the human mind

(29:09):
like it's so easy I can do that
yes
because you are not just human
you are not just a human walking around
that this is an illusion of the matrix
of this hologram projected reality
projecting your consciousness into this physical form
through

(29:29):
emerging of the consciousness in the physical body
I'll let you absorb that for a second
cause somebody was mind blown by that just now
anyway I lost my train of thought
what was I saying maybe it'll come back to me
I don't know anyhow
we have the power to shift massively instantly
there is no use

(29:50):
or need
for techniques that are going to take months
and years to do I'm not saying use whatever
I'm not saying don't use whatever works for you
I'm not saying that use whatever works for you
but also realize you're innate power
become empowered and know that you are energy
you are frequency you are vibration

(30:11):
you are consciousness
you are a conscious projection in this hologram
and this hologram of universes
and all the parallel realities that you are you
and that you are you in different forms
different bodies
different lifetimes all happening at once
and here you are in this present moment
so in this present moment

(30:32):
if it's the prime opportunity for you to shift
then why not shift
why not make your life easier
why not help yourself
because you are that powerful
that you have the ability to shift instantly
there's people that shift
from a non healed state to a healed state
based on having such a strong belief

(30:52):
that they are instantly ill
I know people have seen these miraculous stories
but this is not
this is not how we should be perceiving miracles
we are the miracle
we are the source itself
so why not allow ourselves to shift to who we are
to who we were born to be

(31:14):
to the greatest essence
the source can put out into the universe
why can't we be that
why can't we allow ourselves to be happy
why can't we just allow it
why can't we just realize that we are so powerful
so powerful that it is mind blowing

(31:36):
it is fucking mind blowing that we are this powerful
so own your power own who you are
no
that you don't need anything on the external yes
you can ask the external source for anything you wish
and you will be supported
but it's about going to the internal source

(31:56):
because the internal source of who you are
shifts and changes everything
leaps and bounds 10 fold
1,000 fold 2,000 fold
as far as you can absolutely let your mind go
what I mean by that is as far as you can
shift your mind from the fear and the negative beliefs

(32:18):
to the positive lighter
true authentic beliefs of who you are
the more powerful you will become
because you are already very extremely powerful
you are the most powerful that you could ever become
right now in this now moment

(32:40):
so act like it become it
use it and I'm really realizing this in my own life
you know I had some rocky past lifetimes
I'm sure past future whatever
there's been some rocky lifetime
I'm sure I've been killed for sharing this information

(33:01):
I just know it I just know it
I'm sure I've been hurt for sharing this information
but now the true power has arisen within
and I hope that your true power arises within you
I hope you allow yourself to shift
and in the near future
I am going to start coaching people something

(33:23):
something
whether it's just doing a private
Riverside session with people
for free and helping people shift as much as I can
I don't know I don't know exactly
but I do know that if you come to me

(33:44):
I can help you shift very quickly
that's just what I fucking know
so this is why I'm putting this out
this is why I'm putting this information out
because there's probably
not a lot of people that believes it as much as I do
that we are able to shift instantaneously
that we are able to become who we were meant to be

(34:06):
so easily so effortlessly
and I'm not saying that
you're not gonna cry your eyes out
some days you're not gonna wanna scream
you're not gonna punch something
because I've done this many times yes
I'm not I'm not saying that you're not gonna be crazy
you're not gonna be like freaking out

(34:26):
when the false beliefs and you are breaking down
I'm not saying that at all
I'm just saying we have the opportunity now to shift
we are extremely powerful
why are we wasting our time
so yeah
if you wanna work somebody work with somebody like that

to their highest version of self
whether it's relationships whether it's money success

(35:35):
whether it's your environment
whether it's out of your trauma whether it's your
narcissistic partner parent
whether it's your childhood trauma
maybe some childhood abuse happening
I've been through hell I've just got myself out of it

(35:56):

I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
