    I love listening to your podcast every morning! Thank you so much for the inspiration. :) love peace and happiness ** I came here to add a note.

Who is God, Really?
Q: What do you say to those who question if God really exists or why there is suffering in the world?
People have free will and choose to act harmfully, which leads to suffering. It's not God's doing, but rather the result of human actions.
What If You're Not Broken?
Q: What does it mean to accept that you are not the alloy?
It signifies embracing your true self as pure gold, separate from negativity and past mistakes.
The Real Source of Your Suffering
Q: What's the solution to emotional distress caused by beliefs?
The solution is to watch as a detached observer and to consciously practice sending good wishes and pure feelings to others instead of reacting negatively to a triggering event.
When Life Gets Too Much (Little Things Can Add Up To A Crisis)
Q: How can one shift their perspective during difficult times?
By viewing life as a game and realizing that they are spiritual beings having a temporary experience.
How to Position Yourself for Maximum Power
