Your Time to Rise

Send us a text

Emerging from a period of darkness, I found solace in realizing that every day is a chance to prioritize my mental health and begin anew. This is my personal, heartfelt message that promises to kindle the spark of resilience within you. We discuss the importance of confronting life's challenges head-on, and how doing so can be transformative. This message isn't just a call to action; it's an intimate rally to reclaim your power, to align your choices with your values, and to construct a sustainable support network – a tribe that uplifts you.

As we navigate through the trials that life throws at us, we uncover the strength in our past and the resilience we can cultivate from within. I encourage you to imagine a life where you no longer underestimate your capabilities and begin to value your profound impact on the world. So tune in, join the community, and take your first steps towards the higher version of yourself that is waiting to be unveiled.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, my dear friends and fellow travelers,
how are you all holding up asyou explore your mental
landscapes and traverse thecomplex trails of making changes
and improvements in your lives?
I know many of you are outthere struggling, sick and tired
, exhausted and feeling alone.
I know you're doing the bestthat you can.
This is Albert, and I feltcompelled to put out a short

(00:23):
personal message to empower andencourage you to make this year
truly yours.
As we recognize Mental HealthAwareness Month, it's essential
to remember that every dayshould be dedicated to
prioritizing our mental health.
Mental health is a crucial partof the umbrella that is our
overall health, and it's time wegive it the attention it

(00:44):
deserves, of the umbrella thatis our overall health, and it's
time we give it the attention itdeserves.
So if you're listening to thisright now and if you've been
feeling stuck, find yourselfconstantly complaining about the
same problems month after month, year after year, it's time for
a change.
You have a choice.
You have to believe that,because you do, you can choose
to process your life situationsinstead of just complaining

(01:06):
about them.
Complaining is dangerous.
It cultivates resentment andkeeps you trapped in a cycle of
negativity, and strengthens yourcircumstances and its power
over you.
Choose to take back your power,because you are not powerless.
Imagine making today yoursomeday.
Imagine deciding that today isday one of a new chapter.

(01:27):
It's time to stop living yourpain and suffering on repeat.
Choose to leave behind what nolonger serves you.
This might mean letting go ofcertain thoughts, habits, people
or beliefs.
Choose to get help.
Choose to build your tribe.
Choose to build you up.
Choose change.
Choose to be the best you canbe, because the best you can be

(01:54):
is all you got.
Choose to stop selling yourselfshort.
Choose today.
You all have a higher versionof yourself waiting to be
discovered.
Stop overestimating yourproblems and underestimating
your ability to overcome them.
Change requires commitment.
It means letting go andcreating space for the new.
What needs to come to an endfor you?
What do you need to let go of?
Maybe it's the habit of peoplepleasing, or maybe it's getting

(02:17):
out of your own way andembracing discomfort.
Every experience you've had,every challenge you've faced, is
building you, not breaking you.
Did you hear that?
Your problems, your pain, yoursuffering, your life challenges,
your trials and tribulations?
They are here to build you, notto break you.
Believe that you are made formore.
You deserve more.

(02:38):
Your choices need to line upwith your values.
Stop choosing the wrong thingsand expecting the right things
to happen.
I want you all to aim for avirtuous life and do good in the
world because you're in it.
Your existence is more powerfulthan you can even imagine.
You have impact.
Define for yourself what thehighest good is for you.

(02:58):
Let that be your guiding light.
Be what you don't have.
Be the miracle you need.
This will show you quickly thatyou are valuable.
You are needed.
You are not alone.
Your commitment and dedicationto improving yourself is not
just a necessity.
It's a moral obligation.
There is no solution to yourproblems because you are the
solution.
Choose to process your emotions.

(03:20):
Embrace the waves, gain insight, understanding, empathy,
compassion and acceptance.
Choose what you deserve becauseyou are connected to something
greater.
So, my dear listeners, makethis year your year.
Make some day today.
Start now.
Start here and believe in yourworth.
Let go of what's holding youback and step into the life you

(03:44):
deserve.
Remember, change begins with asingle step.
Make that step today.

intention.
