I definitely owe you all “Which Message Wants to Find You” post. Stay tuned!
But today I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Pride Month. As a cis, more-or-less straight ally, I like to stay in the background for festivities and celebrations. I like to watch the LGBTQIA+ community around me claim the spotlight and celebrate their wholeness and their truth. But I also, think it is important to acknowledge how much I, and other allies, have been gifted and supported by the queer community.
I have learned so much from my non-straight, non-cis friends, and even queer artists and performers I have never met. They have helped me feel seen and supported at some of my lowest moments, and most importantly they helped me to understand and OWN the fact that I know myself better than the outside world. They taught me not to run away from who I am. As they showed up fully in the world, refusing to hide parts of themselves, I found the courage to do the same. They taught me how to love my true self and to accept my gifts of spirit. It is because of their example that I am here doing the work that I am doing today. So, from the bottom of my heart thank you to every person showing the world what it looks like to love your self and be moved by your soul! You opened up the world for me. You helped me to breathe.
And I swear it wasn’t planned, but in today’s Daily Message Love Energy gave a shout out to Pride Month too! I wanted to share it with all of you. Please pass it along.

I am once again excited to share week’s messages with you in this fun and interactive way. Each week I have been creating a post like this to give you a chance to work with your inner own inner Higher Self and connection to Spirit by finding your way to the message that has been trying to reach you this week. If this is your first time jumping in, you can find directions on how this all works below.
But before you get started….
I want to share something with you. As I was listening to the messages this week, I realized that Spirit is has started to do something really exciting and very cool! Love Energy has started breaking down big concepts, ideas, and guidance into smaller segments across multiple days. It was really exciting for me when I saw what was happening! And I want to make sure you get a chance to catch it too.
After you listen to the message calling out specifically to YOU this week, I highly recommend watching one of the messages from last week, “Vision Boards 2.0” and one from this week, “Wondering vs. Wandering” back to back. See if you notice the magic I have been witnessing on my end!
Now, on to the part where you get to play and connect with your own higher self.
Here is how it works:
Below are random pictures, and each picture is linked to one of the messages from this week. Find the one that is calling you and then click on it to receive the message that most wants to reach you.
If you don’t know how to determine which one is calling to you. Here are some tips to connect to your higher self: the part of you that knows exactly what you need to hear.
Close your eyes and take a deep breath. Feel yourself in your body.
Picture Mother Earth embracing you with a big energetic hug. Feel yourself sinking into the space. Recognize that you are here and present in this time and space. You exist! In this moment you know it and feel its true.
Next, picture yourself settled into the space and breathe again. Deeply.
As you breathe in and picture yourself breathing in Love and golden white light.
Do this until you feel solid and confident that you are connected to the flow of Love energy.
Next, ask your higher self, the part of you that is aware of your own divinity and knows exactly what you are here in this lifetime to do, see, be and explore, ask them to guide you to the message that is meant for you.
You may feel your hand automatically move to one of the pictures. You may hear a voice tell you which photo to pick. You may just somehow know which one to go for.
Then simply click and see what message is waiting for you this week.
This is the second week of me posting daily messages on social media and YouTube! And this blog post brings all of those messages together in one place. But rather than just providing a bunch of links to videos you can find on your own, I have set this post up to be a space of play and whimsy where YOUcan work on your intuition and connection to Love energy.

Thanks for joining me on this journey. Wishing you all the brightest and best!
I am excited to start a new weekly project! Each Saturday, it will be my goal to create a blog post featuring the daily spirit message I have been posting to social media over the past week. This will give folks who didn’t catch them on their feeds a chance to check them out on YouTube.
However, because the world needs more play, and whimsy, AND more people working with their intuition and their own connection to Love Energy. I am going to make these posts into a fun game so that YOU can connect with your own higher self and intuition.
This is how it will work:
Each week, I will put random pictures in a post like this. Each picture will randomly be linked with one of the messages from the previous week. When you pop in to check out the post, you will get a chance to ground yourself, touch in with your higher self and ask to be guided to the message meant for you. Then after you get a chance to listen to it, you can check out all of the messages from the week if you feel moved to.
Below are the pictures and the links for this week. If you haven’t had much practice connecting your higher self here are some tips to get started.

Ask your higher self- the part of you that is aware of your own divinity and knows exactly what you are here in this lifetime to do, see, be, and explore- ask them to guide you to the message that is meant for you.
You may feel your hand automatically move to one of the pictures. You may hear a voice tell you which photo to pick. You may just somehow know which one to go for.
Then simply click on the image and see what message is waiting for you this week.

Thanks for joining me on this journey. I can’t wait to see what happens next as we begin to build community and hope in this very special space.
I took February Recess off this year along with the rest of the team at work which gave me just enough time to put together a new podcast episode! I am excited about this one because I have chosen to include a guided mediation for the first time. I am eager to hear about listeners experiences and what they bring back. Leave comments below and let me know!
The damselfly reminds us that our emotional healing is not something to run away from. It is in the mud and muck that we are able to release old stories that are holding us back. It’s where we discover that those hard emotions of heartache, sorrow, and confusion can be used to build a bedrock of awareness and knowing. Those hard emotions don’t have to remain part of us. We can release them and let them be trustworthy and beautiful launching pad. Even the hardest emotions are full of love. They are worthy, important and part of the journey.
In this episode I talk about a dream I had about a cyclone of damselflies that led to to a great podcast called Living Myth with Micheal Meade. The episode I mentioned was Episode 361- The Stream of Knowledge. That episode is now in the archives, but I really recommend any of the episodes that are for free on most podcast platforms, YouTube, and his website. Check out his latest below.
It felt great getting back to my podcast last week and posting a new episode featuring a conversation with Irene Kannyo. That’s here amazing face in the picture above!
In a quick follow-up, I wanted to share a link to sign up for Irene’s mailing list for anyone who was interested in joining her for her latest adventure and learning more about her work. Here is the link https://joyinkmedia-newsletter.beehiiv.com/.
Also for those of you who wanted to know exactly what song that Irene used for her night club promo when she was creating her own radio show when she was a kid here it is
And of course, I had to add a video of DJ Priyanka collaborating with a waterfall. If you haven’t checked out the latest episode it is definitely worth it. Thanks for joining me Irene!
Overwhelm and fear has been setting in my system these past few months. It’s hard not to freeze, as I find myself in witness mode. It’s important to bear witness for others during this time. We can’t look away as others’dignity and lives are being stripped away, and as others foolishly give away their humanity. It’s important to record people’s stories of pain and loss, no one should suffer alone. All of us are called to be aware and awake in this moment. We are called to feel and acknowledge the heaviness and how far, as a collective, we have moved away from the frequency of Love. Yet, there are some souls who are being called to bear witness in an even more full and predominant way at this moment. For some, it is an essential part of their soul’s purpose. If you are able to watch what is happening in the world right now with an effortless calm and hope; if you feel like you have an endless supply of empathy and grace to pour out in this moment, then this may be your calling- to witness, to record, to hold vigil, to ground the pain. If this is your calling, I am grateful for you. You are doing valuable and needed work. You will make sure the history and lessons from this moment don’t get lost. You will make sure that no one is truly alone.
But if bearing witness is causing you to freeze; if it causing you to lose hope, to lose power, to lose your sense of self, then your either blocked from your most authentic self, or you are being called to serve in some other way. If your calling is leading you elsewhere, still bear witness to what naturally comes into your space. Don’t deny it. Hold space for it and grieve the disconnect from love. We all must remain in the reality of this moment, but if it isn’t your calling to bear witness give the story over to the Universe and the witness bearers. Let them cradle it.
Then acknowledge the fear that witnessing so much pain and disconnect has allowed to enter your body. And breathe and begin loving, creating, and serving again. Because it is through your love and creation that the fear will be expelled. When you let in that much love and light and purpose there is no place for fear to dwell. It is absorbed back into the Light and can no longer be spread. It is through this practice, that we will begin to move forward and through this dense time of disconnect and uncertainty together.
In this episode, I admit to the fear that has been roaming around in my system over the past few months and encourage listeners that if they have felt the same, to join me in making the choice not to let it settle. We shouldn’t give fear a cozy corner and a place to rest.
Later in the episode, I am joined by my friend and former AmeriCorps VISTA member, Irene Kannyo an artist, spiritual seeker, and healer. Irene talks about the process of creation and how those who have a soul’s purpose calling them to the art space can find peace by following the call while simultaneously lifting up the collective with their gifts of joy, direction, guidance, and hope. Irene and I also honor Nancy’s legacy and explore the various ways her work and brilliance lives on through each of us.
