Once you see what you actually are, that you're an infinite, limitless being, you'll see that nothing exists outside of you. I'm your host, derek Grant, and this is the Pathway to your Results Podcast. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Pathway to Results podcast, presented by DG Mindset. It's your boy, dg. We've been waiting, we've been waiting, we've been waiting. We've been waiting for this day, patiently, patiently.

Speaker 1:

Everybody's been asking me for years when are you going to write a book? When are you going to write a book? When are you going to write a book? I can tell you right now that the book is written, that the book is complete, the book is published, it is available for your consumption. Go on Amazon, just like you go on Amazon for everything else, but this time, change the trajectory of your life when you go on Amazon. Change the trajectory of your children's lives when you go on Amazon. Change the past narratives that maybe have stunted your development, stunted your growth and stunted your prosperity in your family's life and in your life, by going on Amazon this time and purchasing the Seven Laws of Healing the Inner Child. So this episode is near and dear to me.

Speaker 1:

I wanted to talk about why I wrote this. I want to talk about really what the seven laws of healing the inner child are. I've been biting at the bit for months. I've been wanting to make a podcast about this, but it's like no, don't do it yet, don't do it yet, don't do it yet. But here we are now.

Speaker 1:

So let me tell you why I started off writing this. What was the whole point of this? I never planned on doing what I do now. I never woke up one day and said you know what? I want to be a life coach and I want to help people all around. I never that was never the intention goal. This naturally just kind of unfolded as I started to move through space and time and I started to really give myself permission to follow my heart, because my head just wasn't taking me the places that seemed like it resonated with me. So through this journey of being able to work with people from all over the world whether it's Europe or Africa or Asia or the United States, whether it's a high-performing athlete or executive CEO or as a librarian from a school it didn't matter who it was I started to see that there was a common theme, and this common theme not only showed up in other people's life, but it showed up in my own life and now me being the Sagittarius warrior that I am you already know for all my Sagittarius warriors out there, holla at your boy I started to see that there's deeper reasons as to why we don't accomplish something. There's deeper reasons as to why we don't manifest the life that we desire. And I had never heard of the inner child. I didn't know what it was. I had no idea. But here's how life works. Goodness gracious, y'all stay with me while I get going here.

Speaker 1:

I took on a job. I had a job. I had an opportunity for me. I talked to you guys about this, about leading a pre-draft camp for young men looking to go to the NBA. It was eight weeks long weeks long. Now this was in the spring of 2023.

Speaker 1:

I was no longer in the basketball world like that, where I had to actually be out there on the court and I knew that this was going to be time-consuming and I didn't want it to take away from what I actually love to do of helping people and coaching people and guiding people. So what I would do is I only had an hour lunch break and I would schedule calls for that hour. I would allow people to buy one-on-one calls just one-on-one, one-off calls. And through doing this, I started to reach people from all around the world Switzerland, sweden, australia and they all kept saying the same thing. It all kept coming back to their childhood. It all kept coming back to their past. Well, me being the Sagittarius warrior, I wanted to know why. And then it clicked.

Speaker 1:

I realized that whoever I was today was really what happened yesterday. You are today the sum total of what you were yesterday, meaning all the versions of you that came before who you are today they all added up and this is who we get today. But here's the thing we don't realize, because a lot of this is subconscious, meaning it's stored below the surface, meaning it's below your level of everyday awareness. So it only shows up emotionally. So, intellectually, you have the plan of starting that business, or retiring, or getting in this relationship or getting out of a relationship, but subconsciously, emotionally, you don't think that you're worthy of it, you don't think that you're capable of it. So every time that you go to take that next step, you'll feel fear, you'll feel shame, you'll feel guilt, you will feel something that, energetically, will keep you from moving forward.

Speaker 1:

This is the inner child, and then I started to realize that this inner child, it wasn't just a child, it's not just the part of me that's a child, it's any past version of me, it's any past version of you. I have inner children inside of me that are 23, 30, 35 years old. Things have happened that have nothing to do with me as an adult per se, but it stemmed from the childhood and it kept being put off and kept being put off and kept being put off. My point of this is this we all have something, every single one of us. The question is are you aware of what you have inside of you that is plaguing you and that's stopping you? So I don't like to talk about problems. I'd rather spend that energy and focus on solutions.

Speaker 1:

My mom used to tell me if you want something done, sometimes you got to do it for yourself. And I kept looking around to find doesn't anybody have steps? Doesn't anybody have a way of like? How do I move through this? And I kept looking for something outside of myself. I kept looking for something to do, something that I could already do for myself. I kept looking for somebody else to do it before I did it, and this is why this book got written. This is why I wrote this book, because I stopped waiting.

Speaker 1:

So I woke up in the middle of the night one night it was probably about eight, nine months ago. I woke up in the middle of the night and these seven laws, these seven steps, these seven systems, these seven processes whatever you want to refer to it as and I call them the seven laws because if it's a law, good God Almighty, I'll stay with me before I get started. If it's a law, that means it's universal. If it's universal, that means it applies to everyone and anyone, regardless if you believe it or subscribe to it. It refers to you regardless of your belief system. It would apply to you regardless of what you've been through. And this is the beauty of it, because they are universal. That means it would work against anything that you have ever endured. So when I woke up in the middle of the night and these seven laws, I knew I had to write this down. I jumped up out of bed. I wish you could have seen it. If I could make animation, I would. I jumped up out of bed and I wrote down these seven laws. It was like okay, the law of awareness, the law of acceptance, the law of compassion, the law of reparenting, the law of expression, the law of boundaries, the law of integration. These are the seven steps that we go through when we're healing.

Speaker 1:

Now, I know some of us out here are super masculine. It doesn't have to be a man. We're going to have people who say, well, I don't need to heal nothing, ain't nothing to heal. Hear me when I say this Anytime that you heal something, all you're doing is fixing the distorted perspective of that thing. Hear me when I say this Healing is nothing more than the distortion of a self-concept.

Speaker 1:

Healing is nothing more than the distortion of a self-concept. So you over here thinking that you are limited, when the reality of it is that you were unlimited. So any type of limitation good God almighty any type of lack, any type of scarcity, any type of this distorted perspective that you could not do something, that means there's something that needs to be healed, because that which we actually are is infinite. So how in the world, how in the world could we be infinite but yet have a finite perspective of our capabilities, of who we are? This means that there's a distortion, that means there's a distorted perspective, and here's usually what I find out, what happens on this human journey.

Speaker 1:

I told you this many times before all we really want to do is know that we're enough. Good God, all we want to do is know that we're enough. That's really all it comes down to. You just want to know that you're enough. You just want to know that you will always be enough. And we'll do this through having. We'll do this through doing. But really, at the end of the day, you just want to know that you were enough, just as you were. The reason why is because we're unconsciously living through our ego. See, the ego's job is to make sure that it protects these distorted concepts, these distorted perspectives, because it built an identity around it. This is who it thought it was.

Speaker 1:

So now, when somebody told you that you weren't enough, or somebody made you feel like you were enough, or maybe your parents gave you the silent treatment when you didn't do what they thought you should have done with your life growing up, and they treated you differently, and now you start to realize that your acceptance and your conditioning sorry, your love from them was conditional you now subconsciously start to see yourself as less than. So the ego is going to say well, if we're less than we got to figure out a way to be enough. Let's see if we can make more money. Let's see if we can have more things. Let's see if we can have more girlfriends, more boyfriends, more validation, more followers, more likes, more. You see, more, more, more, more, more, more. The only reason why we wanted more is because we didn't feel like we had enough. The only reason why you wanted more is because you didn't think that you were enough just as you were.

Speaker 1:

I'm trying to get you to understand, because somebody out here ain't trying to hear a word I'm saying right now. I'm trying to get you to understand that you were already enough, that you already had everything that you needed, that there was nothing more that was quote unquote needed in order for you to be enough. I don't care if you're deaf, dumb and broke. You can be blind too, it doesn't matter In this thing that we call now. You were already enough just as you were, and this was the journey, this was the game. Could I recognize meaning? I was using this cognitive faculty of my mind over again to remember that I was already enough just as I was. And if you couldn't welcome to the human life. This is what it meant. This was the journey for me to remember really what I was and then stand on business every single day of my life, to walk in that energy, to walk like I was already it, to walk around like I was already enough. So I didn't need somebody to accept me, I didn't need somebody's validation, I didn't need you to see me. Why? Because I started seeing myself, and this is why I wrote this book.

Speaker 1:

This book got written to be a beacon of service, a beacon of light, to get you to remember all of these things you already knew on a spiritual level. See, before you incarnated into this human life, you already knew all of this, all of it, all of it. Hear me when I say this All of it. You already knew all of this. But then this canvas, this blank canvas, this piece of paper that we have that we call our mind, we started to scribble all over it. More importantly, we started to let other people take our hand and scribble all over our own piece of paper. So now, maybe you wrote it, but it was somebody else's idea. You see what I'm saying.

Speaker 1:

So now you start to realize you can't achieve and be all that. You know You're deep down on a spiritual level, you know you're capable of being, because you got stuff. You got programs. You got things that are written on your canvas that are saying otherwise. But you didn't write that. You didn't write that per se. It may have been your hand.

Speaker 1:

You know how, when somebody grabs your hand and starts tracing on a piece of paper, this is what ends up happening. It's time for you to take your hand back now. It's time for you to say you know what I don't like what's being written on my canvas anymore. I'm going to go back and rewrite it now. And this is what the seven laws of healing the inner child were. But here's the first step, here's the first law you can't fix anything until you become aware of it. You can't fix anything until you're aware of it. And here's how we become aware of it, because I always ask myself how, how, how?

Speaker 1:

This, ladies and gentlemen, is what it meant to be human. This, ladies and gentlemen, is why you experience these things that we call emotions. Emotions, see, you got to understand. You are a spiritual being having a physical experience. So words only play a part of the physical experience of you being able to recognize the energy, but I don't need to use words to be able to know what the energy of a situation is. See, there's these things that we call emotions. It comes from the Greek word emotir, which means the motion of energy.

Speaker 1:

So when I'm experiencing these things called emotions, I'm getting to see what the energy inside of me is doing, because, on a spiritual level, this was how we communicated with the divine. Excuse me, this is how the divine communicated with us. So the divine would say this right here this energy that you're walking in and shame of guilt, of fear, of depression, of anxiety, these things are not divine. So I have to circulate this energy in a way to get this physical vessel that you have to be able to wake up and recognize that there is something that is in the out of alignment with the divine presence that is emanating through this physical body. So this mother, this is why you have emotions, and your emotions are meant to give you awareness. So the moment that we suppress that, we push down that, we will not feel what we have inside. You just negated, you just negated your opportunity to heal.

Speaker 1:

And I'm going to go ahead and say this say it, go ahead and write it down. Take a picture. I don't care what you need to do, record it. Whatever you need to do, you are going to have to feel it in order to heal it. Let me say this in layman's terms you will have to know whatever it is you are experiencing in order for you to fix the distorted perspective that you have right now. I'm going to have to feel what it is. More importantly, I'm going to have to put a name to it. I'm going to have to put a name to what I am feeling right now, because what I'm feeling is not my divine nature. Just like if I were to take a blade, a knife, and cut your hand and your hand starts bleeding. Now you got a scab and you got this wound. That is a distorted perspective of your hand. That isn't naturally how your hand is supposed to be. I've just distorted it through this wound. This is the same thing that happens with the psychologically. So you won't have to feel it to heal it.

Speaker 1:

And this is law number one, the law of awareness. I got to start becoming aware of what comes up when I don't take that next step, when I know I need to get out of this relationship, when I know I maybe said I want a divorce, but then I won't go get a lawyer and I won't go get an attorney and my children ain't talking to me and I'm wondering why? Why is this going on? What am I feeling? Instead of me numbing out and going out with my friends and hanging out and going drinking a brew, instead of doing that, I need to feel what it is that I'm feeling. I need to go ahead and write down exactly what I'm feeling and put it in a way that only I can understand, and by doing this we're shining the flashlight of awareness on what has been lying below the surface. So I like to write and start my journals with I feel dot, dot, dot. I feel fear, I feel unworthy, I feel insecure, I feel like I'm not good enough, I feel like imposter syndrome. You see what I'm doing. I'm writing down how I feel. Now I'm shining the light of awareness. Once you have the light of awareness, you can move into law number two.

Speaker 1:

Law number two of healing the inner child is the law of acceptance, meaning I'm aware of it. Now I got to accept that this is exactly what it is. See, what you have to understand is the ego is going to want to deny. Only the ego denied. The spirit is what accepted everything that which you actually are can only accept. But when we live, when we live unconsciously through the ego, meaning we are asleep it will only deny. And the reason why it denies is because its butt wants to stay asleep. So if it's time to get up, it's going to deny that it's time to get up. So it's going to push things under the rug, it's going to push those triggers down, it's going to get angry at things and get distracted. So it doesn't actually have to get to the root of it, because if we get to the root of it now, the ego must die.

Speaker 1:

So here's the other part of acceptance. You're going to have to understand that everything that you've encountered, everything that you have endured, everything that you have endured along your journey whether it was abuse, it didn't matter if it was physical, emotional, sexual, psychological, it does not matter what type of trauma you have endured on this journey Please understand that every single piece of it, every single iota, was absolutely needed for you on your journey. This is what the law of acceptance does. We no longer deny our stories, we no longer deny our traumas, we no longer deny these things that have been holding us back. Now we face them with accountability. We will say, while I did not want this, this was not what I desired, this is what it is. This is exactly what it is right now. I'm not going to deny it. Did I want that situation to happen the way it did? Absolutely not. But here's what it is. It happened, and now the question is what am I going to do about it? You see, when we move into the second law good God, almighty, y'all stay with me before we get started when we move into the second law, now we start to move into the energy of accountability and your greatest ability was accountability. The moment that I start taking accountability for my life and stop looking at things as happening to me and start realizing that things are happening for me because I now can use these situations to help expand my self-awareness and for me to start consciously living. When you apply conscious living with awareness, you're going to get consciousness. When I start to increase and expand my consciousness, now I get to choose how I experience life. I get to choose how I experience situations. This is what we call supreme power. So now you ain't got to be down and out just because something happened.

Speaker 1:

I know some of y'all I don't talk about politics much, but maybe I need to do a podcast. I know some of y'all are happy, some of y'all are up and down, some of y'all are all because of the election. We don't even realize that we're unconscious. We don't even realize that we unconscious, we unconsciously living through wounds. We unconsciously have attached our identity to a political party. We have unconsciously attached our self-worth to who you voted for. So now you don't even realize that unconsciously you feeling less than because your candidate didn't win and you needed your candidate to win, because your candidate was where you put your self-worth. Y'all ain't trying to hear nothing I'm saying right now we don't realize this because we haven't moved into the second law. So this plagues us. Until you start to accept, you're going to deny, and as long as you deny, you're going to cry. If I deny, I'm going to cry. And the crying isn't bad. The crying is not bad. Hear me when I say this. Crying is not bad, but know that every time that you cry, it's because there's something that was below the surface that needed to come out. There was something going on below the surface that you were not aware of that, needed to come up and it was bubbling up to the surface. Do you see how this works? So now, once we moved into the second law, you started to accept. Now you can start to move into the third law.

Speaker 1:

The third law is the law of compassion, the law of compassion. Compassion comes from the Latin root compati, which means to suffer with good God almighty. This is where the boo-hooing is going to come in. This is where you're going to really feel everything. When you got to go and sit with that child, when you got to go and sit with that past version of you. When you have to go ahead and really deal with the limited perspective that you have, that you've been pushing on the rug, meaning you go back and sit with that version of you that endured those things. You suffer with it, you sit with it. This is where the waterworks begin. This is the making and breaking point. You're either going to keep moving into law number four or you're going to hold tight in law number three and go backwards.

Speaker 1:

So when we start understanding the law of compassion, how often do we show compassion for somebody else in our life? You show compassion for your kids. You will show compassion for a homeless person, you will show compassion for everyone except yourself. Hear me when I say this. Yes, I am talking to you mothers out there. I am talking to you parents out there.

Speaker 1:

Sometimes we beat ourselves up when our kids go to sleep at night because we got in an argument before they went to sleep and maybe they're fussing and fighting or maybe they tell you that they hate you, and then we will go to sleep. We will go to sleep feeling unworthy and feeling bad as parents, because we had rooted our self-worth in how well we parented our children. See, we put our self-worth in how well we parented our children. See, we put our self-worth in whether or not our children accepted us. So now, here we are, suffering inside. This child inside who does not feel like it's good enough, deep down in from the past has found someone or something to put itself worth in. I realized this as a parent. I had to go and find these virgins of me who felt the same emotion that I'm feeling right now as a parent. So the law of compassion.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to read you an excerpt here so you can understand. You start understanding these moments of shame and guilt and judgment will arrive now that you're on this journey, when you get to law number three, they will arrive as portals for you to enter into the wound and begin to tend to it. Good God, when they arrive, either in your negative self-talk or your emotional outbursts or your destructive behavior, take this opportunity as the doorway that it is. This is the time when the portal is open and when you are required to sit with yourself and invite this inner child, this past version of you, to be loved by you as the compassionate parent, meaning you go and sit with it and you see what it needed, you listen to it, you feel it. So when we start to show compassion to this child inside, we can move into law number four, which is the law of reparenting.

Speaker 1:

And the law of reparenting states that Only you knew what you needed To hear. Only you knew what you needed Growing up. Only you knew how you needed To be talked to. Only you did. Nobody else knew your mom and your daddy. They loved you, they grew up with you, they raised you, but they didn't know what you needed. Nobody knows what I need except me. Nobody knows what I need to the level that I need, except me. Nobody, only me. The same goes for you. So when you start realizing that it was really you who you were looking for, our parents were here to teach us. Our caregivers were here to teach us how to give it to ourselves, but they were just placeholders until you could start to give it to yourself. This is what the law of reparenting is.

Speaker 1:

The law of reparenting means I go back and fill in the gaps. I go back and give myself what I know I needed. Maybe I got hugs, maybe I was told that I was loved, maybe I didn't get neglected growing up, but maybe I just didn't get it to the level that I feel like I needed. Now I got the awareness I got to give to myself now. And here's what ends up happening when you start giving it to yourself, when you start feeding yourself meaning you learn how to cook that ramen noodles. You learn how to throw that hot dog in the microwave. You learn how to make that Kraft macaroni and cheese the kind that you can make in the microwave and you don't depend on anybody else to cook for you. You ain't dependent on anybody else to say I love you. You ain't dependent on anybody else to accept you. You learn how to do that for yourself Now. You'll never go hungry. Y'all hear what I'm saying right now. This is what the law of reparenting is. I've been telling you all this for months, for weeks, in podcasts. You got to start learning how to cook for yourself.

Speaker 1:

See, my mom raised me, my mom, mom, I know you're going to listen to this right now. My mom raised me. She said I can teach you how to fish, or I can give you a lifetime. If I give you a fish, you'll eat for a day. My job is to make sure that your butt doesn't starve when I'm gone. My job is to make sure that you don't starve when I'm gone. Meaning I got to teach you how to love yourself, and mom taught me how to love myself. Dad taught me how to love myself, but here's what they did. They could only do it to the level that they taught themselves. Meaning maybe I was just a little bit deeper, maybe emotionally, because of the way my soul was based on the planetary alignment of when I incarnated into this life. I needed just a little bit more. Maybe I needed Kraft macaroni cheese to get me belly full, but I needed a little bit more seasoning to make it taste. Just right. It was on me to apply that seasoning. It was on me to give it to myself. It was on you to stop thinking that someone else was going to supply something to the level that you needed. It was never going to happen.

Speaker 1:

So some of us, some of us in our relationship right now, some of us have been in a marriage for the last 15 plus years, some of us has been at a job, some of us are in a business partnership, Some of us are in certain situations that we believe that we think are going to do something and give something to us that we ourselves haven't already been equipped with the supply within us. And then here's what ends up happening you start to achieve or feel this thing that we call disappointment, disappointment. Good, look at the word disappointment, look at this thing called disappointment. There's three words. I hear three words in there. I hear a point, I hear dis. I hear meant. Anytime that we see dis, it means without. Remember, dis is Latin for without.

Speaker 1:

When we see a point, that means this is a point where two things come together, a point of information. When I see ment, that means it has to do with my mind Dis-a-point-ment. We think, sorry, the thing, the information that we were supposed to receive whether it was love, whether it was acceptance whatever that we were supposed to receive, whether it was love, whether it was acceptance, whatever that we were supposed to achieve psychologically it's not there. It was not met. You will not meet it. You will always be disappointed when you think somebody else is going to give you what you were supposed to give yourself, and this is what the law of reparenting is.

Speaker 1:

The law of reparenting is you sitting with yourself and writing a letter to these past versions and telling these past versions what you needed to hear. Maybe you needed to be told that you were enough, maybe you needed to be told that you were seen. You get down with a piece of paper and a pen and you write this letter to it. And here's the deal If you get doing it right, you're going to have to buy a journal because you're going to see that there was infinite layers, there was infinite parts of you, there was infinite versions of you that needed to be reparented. So now, when we move out of law number four, we move into law number five, which is the law of expression. The law of expression says I reparented, meaning I've established this relationship of giving these past versions of myself what they needed. So now, once I've done that, that, I now can go and allow this child inside to express itself. This child can talk now. So this is where the child inside of you starts to express itself. It writes a letter to whoever needs to write it to.

Speaker 1:

Now hear me when I say this when you write a letter from this child to whoever you need to write it to, maybe you had to write it to the perpetrator, to the person who abused you. Maybe you needed to write it to your parents, who didn't give you what they needed. It wasn't about you writing it to them and giving it to them. It was about you writing it so the child inside could express itself, so the child inside could express itself. That's why we're doing it. I've had past clients. They write a letter and they go give it to the person who they feel is the need to give it to, and that never ends well, because the person who maybe inflicted the wounds on you they were unconscious themselves. So here now, all you're going to do is go and stimulate and trigger their ego and they're not going to be in a level of awareness to be able to receive what you're saying. So here's what this looks like.

Speaker 1:

I write a letter, this child version of me, this eight-year-old, this nine-year-old maybe. It writes a letter to mom. It writes a letter to dad. It writes a letter to the babysitter, whoever it is. It writes a letter and it tells how it feels. It tells how it feels. It says I feel scared, I feel this, I feel that. And you always end your letter with gratitude. Always end this letter with gratitude, always end this meditation with gratitude, always end this visualization with gratitude. And the gratitude comes in when you start to realize that all of this stuff that had happened, all of this stuff that had happened, played into your beautiful journey. It was all needed for your life story. So, even though it wasn't something that I desired, this too helped me along my journey to become X, y and Z, and it was your responsibility to find how it helped you. When we start to do that now, we move into the law.

Speaker 1:

Law number six is putting up boundaries, the law of boundaries. Now I can start to put up boundaries, now I can start to say yay or nay. Now I can start to speak up for myself. More importantly, I can speak up for this child, this child who lived in fear, this child who lived in shame, this child who lived in guilt. This child no longer puts himself in these situations. For him to feel less than because it's healed, because now it doesn't live in the energy of shame, so it can put up boundaries and say excuse me, you ain't going to talk to me this way, excuse me, I'm not going to work at this mediocre job anymore because I know I'm more worthy than that. Excuse me, I'm going to stop eating these foods that are processed, that were made, not designed for a human being to consume, because I know that I'm better than that. You see, we'll start to put up boundaries now, and when you put up boundaries now, energetically, you're going to start to control where you put your energy and you'll start to realize how potent your energy was.

Speaker 1:

So when you tell somebody what your price is, when you tell somebody what your worth is, when you tell somebody who you are, and they look at you crazy. They say what You're going to? Look at them now and say what You're going to? Look at them now and say, oh, I guess you don't see my value. Then Thank you, but I must keep it moving. Do you see how this works? No longer anyone, no one, will ever define your self-worth. No one will ever define your self-validation. Nobody else can say what you are now when you put up boundaries.

Speaker 1:

So putting up boundaries part of this. You're going to have to be telling some folks no, you're going to have to be putting up some no's, some no's, n-o, because you can't have my energy anymore. You can't have it. My energy is premium. For you to have my energy, top dollar, you can't have my energy.

Speaker 1:

See, I used to give you the attention, I used to give you energy. I used to constantly put myself out there so you could have my energy. You can't have it anymore, you can't. I'm putting up boundaries now because I started to realize how potent my energy was. I got that good good. I got that Frank Lucas, that blue magic.

Speaker 1:

You can't just have my energy anymore. This comes with a price tag. I've gone through and healed all these wounds. I've gone through and dealt with the parts of myself that I've neglected, who felt unworthy. So I needed to give you my energy because in exchange, you was going to give me a little bit of pseudo acceptance. So now, if you gave me your acceptance, I would feel like I was enough. I'm not doing that anymore because now I realized that my energy was my life force, I start to realize how valuable my energy is on my walk.

Speaker 1:

So you can't just have it now for free, and hear me when I say this oh, you're going to trigger a lot of people, because a lot of those people were codependent on your energy so that they would be enough. They needed you to shower them with compliments. They needed you to go ahead and type back when they said something that was offensive. They needed you to give attention to them, because if you did that, that would make them feel seen, that would make them feel worthy, that would make them feel, in some psychological mind, effery. That would make them feel like they were enough, because maybe they grew up and nobody gave them attention, but they learned through manipulation and they learned through this back-ended way. I can get people's attention if I get them to give me my energy. It didn't matter if it was positive or negative. So I'm going to go ahead and inflict some transgressions and do some things to people. That may hurt them, but at least I get their energy.

Speaker 1:

This is what we call energetic vampires. This is what we call pendulums. They're all around, they're everywhere. But see, when you move into this law number six, the law of boundaries, now ain't nobody just going to give you your energy. That boss is going to say something to you. That coworker is going to look at you crazy. Somebody is going to comment something on your post. They're going to say something that's going to trigger you. But now, because you're in law number six, you'll be able to say nah, you ain't getting my energy on this one. You can't have it, you can't have it. You used to get it, you used to get it, but you can't have it this time. And if you do give energy to it meaning they do trigger you do fall for the trap. Remember, it was just showing you that there was something that needed to be reconciled. This was your chance, this was your portal. So now, when we can now put up boundaries, we can start to move into law number seven.

Speaker 1:

Law number seven is the law of integration. Integration means conscious action, meaning I go ahead and apply everything that I know and I apply it to real life. When we start looking at life as a basketball game, integration is what I find is the hardest thing. I used to train basketball players. I used to train, train, train, be in the summer, summer, working out all year, and then season starts they ain't doing nothing. It's like how come you ain't doing what we've been working on? Because you haven't integrated it, you're not consciously doing it. I can work on a move for hours in the gym during the summer hours, but then when I get in the game in the winter, if I don't think about using the move, it ain't going to be used. If I don't consciously apply what I have learned, it ain't going to get applied. It ain't going to get used. So the law of integration law number seven is taking this information, this awareness now from all the other laws and then applying it to life, applying it consciously. No longer are we living asleep anymore. I'm living through this new awareness. I'm living through this new way of mind, this new perspective. I'm not living through this new awareness. I'm living through this new way of mind, this new perspective. I'm not living through the unconscious wounds anymore. This is what law number seven is, the law of integration. Because I'm here, I'm going to go ahead and say it. I'm going to go ahead and say it, I'm just going to have to go ahead and say it.

Speaker 1:

I get a lot of DMs, I get a lot of messages. A lot of people say well, I feel like I'm stuck. You've been saying that you stuck for the last six months. You've been saying that you've been stuck for the last year, and you know why? Because you're not applying the information that you know you need to apply into life. So I know I need to say no. I know I need to say no. I know I don't need to be in this relationship. I know that I need to do certain things, but I won't do them. Why? Why I'm not integrating. I'm not integrating.

Speaker 1:

And here's the just to make it simple, right, the law of integration. All it means. It means there ain't nothing to it, but to do it now. There ain't nothing to it, but to do it. I know what I got to do. I just got to do it. Now, I got to do it. And if I can't do it, I'm going to ask myself why? Because maybe there's a part of do we see it? Do we see how this works?

Speaker 1:

So this is why I wrote this book. I know that this book is going to echo for eternity in space and time. I know it is. I know it is because this book was not written by me. This book came from outside of space and time. That's why I woke up in the middle of the night. You got to understand anytime that you dream or anytime that you're asleep. Middle of the night, you got to understand, anytime that you dream or anytime that you're asleep, you are not here on earth, my mind, I was gone and it was like a download, a prompt. I don't know where it came from, I don't know who it was, but I know that this book had to get written. It had to.

Speaker 1:

And when I found my editor good God, almighty, when I found my editor, I found an editor. I know it was so divinely orchestrated. She was going through things in her life. Her father had just lost his life unexpectedly and she said I'm so sorry, but I'm going to have to delay being able to edit this. I said don't worry about it. She had to put it off for eight weeks. This book probably would have came out two months earlier, but this book came out when it was supposed to come out because I realized that she sent me a message when she was done. She said you don't realize, through editing this book, how much it helped me to heal past wounds that were brought up from when my father had passed away unexpectedly. It was almost as if this book was divinely orchestrated and I said, oh my goodness, if this book is not going to change the trajectory of humanity, then I do not know what is.

Speaker 1:

But here's the deal. There's a two-step process here. Number one this podcast isn't going to be enough. You're going to have to get the book. That's number one. Number two you're going to have to read that book more than once. I made it 103 pages, 103 pages. I made it so my kids could be able to read it in a week. That was the goal, but not so you read it once, but so you would read it over and over and over and over and over again.

Speaker 1:

The reason why is because these seven laws are ever unfolding for the versions inside of you. You may have healed the 12 year old you, but please believe that there's another version of you that was 12, that had to go through those seven laws. There's another version of you that was 15 that had to go through those seven laws when I started to understand the seven hermetic principles, when I started to understand the seven laws of the universe, I said I got to memorize these. I got to memorize, I got to learn these. I have to embody these so that way I can apply them to my life. So I studied these things religiously, religiously. Now I don't think about them, I just live it.

Speaker 1:

If you can do this with these seven laws, I promise you, I swear on everything I've ever known in this existence, it will change your life. It will change the trajectory of where you're going and it will change the past narratives that have been holding you back. And you won't look at your trauma as something that held you down. You will see it as the catalyst that props you up. You're not going to look at life and say it's against you. You're going to realize that it's always been for you. You're not going to see yourself as a victim anymore. You're going to see yourself as a victor. You're not going to live life from a place of scarcity. You're going to realize just how abundant you actually are. Because a lot of people ask me how do I make more money? I want to make more. I'm going to tell you how to make more money. Heal these wounds, heal these parts of you that thought that there was a lack. Heal these parts of you that thought that abundance wasn't your divine nature. You heal those. You'll move into the frequency of abundance and you will see that everything I desired was already within me to create, and I can create it at will, and the money will just come to you. It'll come to you in the most least obvious ways, but you'll start to realize this was directly linked to me healing.

Speaker 1:

I had a dream four years ago. I had a dream four years ago that I was sitting on a commercial working with a professional athlete in the NBA, high profile client guy, and I was in this dream and he was just talking to me and we were. I was his right-hand man, I was his guy and he was just, we were just talking. He gave me a pair of shoes and said here, I just want to tell you, thank you for what you've done. This was his own signature shoe. So he gives me a shoe, right? And I said man, that's crazy. I told my son four years ago I was like man, shall I say.

Speaker 1:

I went through some deep healing. I had to let go of some things inside of me that I didn't even realize. I'm talking about some deep things, some parts of me that grew up not really knowing how to trust its heart, because when it trusts its heart, maybe it got shamed for making the wrong decision or the quote-unquote wrong decision. So I stopped trusting this internal voice that was a part of me. So, anyway, there were things that had happened. There were things that had happened. There were things that had happened and I realized last week it came up to me and a part of me had died. I had never died like this without doing plant medicine. I had never died like this at this level without going to the jungle and doing ayahuasca. But here's my point A part of me died.

Speaker 1:

And then, literally 24 hours later, I get an email from the agent of this person who was in the NBA, this high profile client who I had a dream about. This agent I didn't know who they were. They just reached out, sent an email and they said, hey, can we hop on a call for a consultation? I said yes, so I hop on a call and we're having I'm having this conversation with this agent. I said, how crazy is this? That four years ago I said to myself, man, I'm going to work with this person. Now their agent's reaching out saying I'm just looking for some help for a player of mine, for a player of mine Hear me when I say this things that were going on imposter syndrome and feeling less than and like unworthiness and acceptance.

Speaker 1:

And I said, goodness gracious, it doesn't matter what you look like, it doesn't matter what you do, it doesn't matter where you're from. We all, we all, have something that plagues us. And that person that you look at, that person that you worship, that person that you idolize, that person that you put on a pedestal, that person who's your role model, that person who you follow and like everything that they put on social media, that person, too, has things within their life. And just because they don't show you does not mean that it's there. But we all have something. Now I have to leave you with this. I wrote this book to help you individually, but I told you already at the beginning that these laws were universal, these laws were applicable.

Speaker 1:

I sat and watched this week. I just kind of sit back. I'm an observer, I like to sit back. I had a client of mine tell me this week. She said I noticed that you just like to sit and watch. I said, yeah, that's just the way I am. I like to just observe everything. I live mostly in my head for the most part. I started to watch this country. I started to see the wounds of this country coming up. So when you start to understand that this world is holographic, this universe is holographic, meaning whatever it is on the individual level, it's going to be the same thing on the mass level.

Speaker 1:

If there's an individual who lives in the United States that needs to be healed, that would mean that there's a country that needs to be healed, meaning that there's a distortion of the collective in this country that needs to be healed.
