A jaw-dropping conversation on the podcast...


Hello Reader,

đź’› Weekly Check-In

Do you ever just feel so alive and so good and then crash? Just want to lay in bed, watch junk TV and be still in your body? That is where I am right now writing this newsletter. The good news—I have been learning to listen to my body's needs and allowing myself the space and permission to lean into what it needs. You can, too.

I've committed to a new morning routine. Upon waking, I grab a journal and jot down anything I remember from my dreams—any visuals, numbers, names, messages, downloads, and feelings. I then go into meditation to connect to God, connect with my inner knowing and spirit team, and sit in the stillness to receive any messages meant for me to hear or share. I've been showing up for myself as a way to overcome one of my key themes based on my astrology chart, pushing myself to be more disciplined. I've been sharing my experience every day on Instagram, primarily via stories.

Here's what I know: when you start listening to what your body and spirit actually need—not what you think you should do—everything shifts. Your nervous system calms. Your intuition gets louder. You remember that you're worthy of rest just as much as you're worthy of ambition.

I'm sharing my morning practice not to give you another thing to do, but to show you what's possible when you commit to hearing yourself. If this resonates, join me on Instagram stories—not to perform, but to witness what happens when we choose alignment over force.

Your body knows what you need. Your spirit team is waiting. Are you listening?

🎙 On the Podcast Today

My guest on this week's podcast died. She met the living Christ. And He sent her back.

Rev. HoniB's story is the kind that cracks you open.

She survived a fatal car crash at seven. War. Abuse. Loss after loss. For decades, she tried to figure out her purpose through doing—building businesses, helping others, searching for answers.

But it wasn't until she surrendered that everything shifted.

When her heart stopped and she crossed over, she experienced something that transformed her entire life. She saw Heaven. She came face to face with Jesus. And He told her something that changed everything.

She came back healed. Transformed. With a mission.

But here's what I keep thinking about: You don't have to die to remember who you are. You don't have to have a near death experience.

You just have to surrender...and listen.

Listen to this conversation and let her story remind you: God already knows who you are. And He already declared you worthy.

Bonus: Rev. HoniB is gifting you The Four Living Declarations™—a sacred tool to help you step into Embodiment. Get it free when you listen. Link is in the show notes on your fave listening platform.

🌑 What's in the Sky?

Today through Thursday is a powerful window.

Right now, the Scorpio moon is here bringing depth and truth—no surface level allowed. Whatever you've been circling, whatever needs a real conversation or a bold decision—the energy is asking for it now.

Tomorrow (Wednesday), the First Quarter Moon in Scorpio arrives and that's your action point. That's the moment to make a real, aligned decision about something you've been avoiding. Not the safe choice. The true choice.

Thursday, the Sagittarius moon shifts the energy lighter and more expansive. Like you can finally breathe again.

And underneath it all: Saturn and Neptune retrograde are quietly clarifying who you are beneath the roles and the shoulds. Not punishing—revealing.

Lean into the Scorpio truth over these next few days. Make the decision. Trust what's being shown to you.

Then join me Friday for Frequency Friday, where I'll give you the full energetic breakdown for next week. You won't want to miss it.

đź”® Card Pull

✨ Queen of Wands

I pulled the Queen of Wands this morning. Her message: Step into your power. Be unapologetically you.

This queen doesn't apologize for who she is. She's bold, magnetic, and fully comfortable in her own skin. She doesn't dim her light for anyone or wait for permission to pursue what lights her up.

What's beautiful is that her confidence isn't selfish—it's inspiring. She gives others permission to be fully expressed too.

Here's what she wants you to know: You are meant to shine. Your gifts, your voice, your passion—they're not meant to be hidden. Your authentic expression is a gift to the world. Stop waiting for permission. Stop playing small. Step into who you really are.

That's queen energy.

A gentle reminder: tarot can be a meaningful tool for reflection and intuition rather than a way to predict fixed outcomes. Let this card serve as an invitation to notice where its message resonates in your own life.

đź–Š Journal prompts:

  • Where am I Playing Small? — Where are you dimming your light or waiting for permission? Write about what you're hiding and what you fear will happen if you step fully into yourself.
  • What Lights Me Up? — What passion or creative spark makes you lose track of time? What would it look like to honor this, not someday, but now?
  • Who Do I Become When I'm Fully Me? — Imagine yourself fully expressed and unapologetically authentic. Describe her in detail. What's keeping you from being her right now?

đź’« Affirmation:

"I am meant to shine. I step into my power. I am unapologetically me."

You came back. Even with everything pulling at you, even on the weeks when it feels like too much, you keep returning to this space. That consistency isn't random. It's the foundation of everything that's changing for you right now. You're not waiting for permission or the perfect moment—you're showing up for yourself. That's the real work.

Hello Reader, I did something a little different for this week's Frequency Friday — I pulled the tarot cards completely at random instead of picking ones that would make a "perfect" story. And the universe had opinions. The weekend card, Page of Pentacles, was lovely — simple, grounded, "just take the first honest step" energy. But the week-ahead card? Queen of Swords, reversed. Which is basically the cards saying: watch your inner critic this week, friend. Because with Uranus taking its very...

Hello Reader, đź’› Weekly Check-In It's beginning to feel like fall - well at least here in NJ. Not so much in other places. I, for one, love the fall. I love the colors of the leaves, all of the variations of fall mums and plants. The fresh breeze that creates little tornados of leaves as you walk. The vibrancy of bright yellow leaves, against a dark, wet bark. I hope you are doing well. I would love to hear from you. Is there anything you would love to learn about, go deeper with, or just have...
