A stream of consciousness with my initial thoughts on this concept. Feel free to add to it in the comments! Would love to build out this perspective with you.

There are two types awakenings. The first is the Societal Awakening: when you see the manipulation, the evil, the systems of control, the lies. Many get stuck here. Lost in despair, hopelessness, or anger.

But the second, the Spiritual Awakening, is what brings meaning, understanding, grace, and peace. It’s when you awaken to your true nature and the Divine, and from there, you can see the world’s chaos with new eyes.

The spiritual awakening doesn’t ignore reality, nor does it give you all the answers, but it does gives you the tools/perspective to move through the world with clarity, love, and purpose.

Don’t stop at seeing the lies of this world. Allow yourself to go inside, be cracked open, and truly connect with who and what you are at your core.

Intuition unlocks. Safety is ever present. Love is boundless. This is one way the world will change. by @carlynbryan

Do we need religion to connect with God? This is the question I explore in the latest episode on YT.

I know this type of question can make some uncomfortable… but perhaps give the episode a watch and see what you think. Are you willing and able to listen to a perspective that differs from your own? Or can you not even entertain the thought?

Religions are systems that provide a framework to explain this reality, why it is the way it is and how to navigate it. They give us language for the ineffable. Rituals to help us stay connected. Pathways toward union with love, God, and wholeness.

And I wonder, what happens when the system becomes more important than the spirit, the direct lived experience. What if you’ve found that connection outside of a tradition?

I’m not here to convince any one of anything. I just share from lived experience. If this is of interest to you, perhaps read the mini essay in the YT description as well - let it serve as an appetizer for the full video.

In 1962, the U.S. military drafted a plan to fake hijackings, sink ships, stage riots, and even hold funerals for victims that didn’t exist… all to justify invading Cuba. They were even willing to k*ll innocents and enact domestic terrorism.

It was called Operation Northwoods, and it’s all laid out in a declassified document (DM me for a link). The level of detail is notable.

It makes you wonder—how many tragedies, crises, or wars have been orchestrated to manipulate the public? How many stories have we accepted without asking: Who benefits? Are we seeing the full truth?

This isn’t about paranoia. It’s about staying curious, open, and willing to question what we’re told.

Watch the full video to learn the details for yourself. Let it open a door to deeper questions, or ignore it if you prefer.

Some lies we know about that *were* carried out: The Gulf Of Tonkin Incident - Declassified NSA documents later revealed that the second “attack” never happened. The incident was exaggerated or fabricated to justify military intervention.  Operation Gladio - Gladio operatives staged terrorist attacks, assassinations, and bombings, often blamed on left-wing groups, to shift public opinion and justify what could be called authoritarian policies.  How about those Weapons of Mass Destruction?

Allow yourself to accept that you cannot know things with absolute certainty. Resist clinging so tightly to what you perceive as facts.   What are your thoughts? What should we look into next? by @carlynbryan

Building good habits is valuable, absolutely! But the problem is that one bad habit can cancel out the benefits of several good ones.

I’d bet that listening to this you can already think of that one pesky habit you could cut back on or delete from your life.
Doomscrolling
Grabbing your phone right when you wake up
People pleasing
Overindulgent snacking
Compulsive online shopping
… whatever else

You can meditate, exercise, and eat well but if you’re chronically sleep deprived, heavily drinking, or doomscrolling every night, those habits limit the benefits of the everything else.

Removing a bad habit will likely create a ripple effect. Perhaps it will reveal what you’ve been avoiding facing. Now without that thing to soothe it, you’ll have to face it. This is good!

Better sleep, mood, energy, focus, relationships, career advancement, and decision making could all be on the other side of stopping that one thing.

Are you willing to try? Do you love yourself or others enough to give it a go?

Give yourself one week. See if you can make it one week. (Or start with a day or an hour. Whatever feels like something you can actually manage.) by @carlynbryan

Find your prescription below 👩‍⚕️ Save this one to come back to when you need it.

FIRST: AUDIT YOUR INPUTS
Apologies for being crass but… put shit in, get shit out.
Are you scrolling for hours, consuming fear-based news, listening to everybody else’s opinions, having the same conversations and moving through the exact same routine day after day after day?
Quit that. Now. Regardless of your desire.

YOUR PRESCRIPTION BASED ON CRAVING:

CLARITY: Decrease the amount of other people’s thoughts you’re consuming and increase the amount of time you can actually hear your own. Get outside. Walk without a podcast. Meditate. Journal. Stop asking everyone what they think for a minute. Give your own thoughts and inner guidance space to surface.

PEACE: Reduce the inputs that continually activate you. Less doomscrolling. Less outrage. Less checking. More nature. More silence. More meditation. More time doing ordinary things that remind your body that your immediate environment is actually safe.

INSPIRATION:
Go experience LIFE, hunnayyyy 🍯
Read about something that fascinates you. Go go-karting!! Go somewhere you’ve never been. Take the dance class. Archery. Karaoke. Make something badly. Drive somewhere beautiful. Learn something new, perhaps that’s completely unnecessary. Do something you already know makes you feel alive.

Follow fascination.

Quit analyzing why you feel numb and go do shit for the first time.

You need an experience that reminds you you’re ALIVE.

And underneath all three of these is the same question:
What are you repeatedly giving your attention to and thus creating more of within you?

Are you ready and willing to take radical self responsibility? Are you willing to look at the choices you actively and passively make?
What you do and don’t do.
How you CHOOSE to perceive what’s happening in the world around you, what it means and how it impacts you.

The quality of your life is determined by the choices that you make in each moment.

Immense power returns once you realize and accept this.

YOU have the power to change your life. Will you? Or will you continue to sit there pouting and shouting that the world isn’t fair?

Reclaim authority over your mind. Reclaim authority over your emotions. Reclaim authority over your choices.
That is how you reclaim your life.

Get inside the 12 week journey of Authority: Reclaimed if you want tools, practices, and support to do exactly this. We start on Monday (Sept 14).

Comment “reclaim” and join me as we dive into alllll this inside Authority: Reclaimed. We start MONDAY! (Sept 14)

There’s nothing wrong with the “box.” In fact we need it to survive at first. So you watch, you learn, you absorb it all without questioning its validity or completeness. We all do it. It’s part of assimilating to human life.

But… the mistake many make is never truly exploring what else might be real… what exists beneath, above, and within this physical reality.

It is FAR more mysterious, expansive, and magnificent than the materialist worldview. And thankfully science has been opening up to that.

But I believe science will always fall short of a complete explanation. This can be an uncomfortable thing for some. And others may chalk it up to fanciful thinking and believe it to be a waste of time to consider.

For those who dare to dive into the possibility, my goodness… it can change everything.

Breaking that box wide open is profoundly liberating. Life is more wondrous. Going after your dreams isn’t so scary. Uncertainty is less frightening. Even “suffering” begins to look different.

This can enable you to perceive, hold, and respond to what’s happening in the physical in a much more empowered way.

That hopelessness and doom you feel? It can shift. But you have to be truly willing to let go and dive in.

Why not find a way to be fully in love with life no matter what it looks like?

This is what we’re doing inside Authority: Reclaimed. We’re examining and experiencing perception, consciousness, conditioning, intuition, discernment in a whole new way.

If the world is feeling heavy, if you’re not sure which direction to go, if you’re feeling numb… come join us.

All day, every day, you are creating your field of potential. That which dominates your field becomes most probable.

We don’t talk enough about the impact of internal dialogue and thoughts. This is one of THE most crucial parts of your experience to pay attention to and correct.

How are you narrating your life? What does it sound like?
And what additional inputs are you taking in?

Are you watering yourself with fear or faith? Destruction or creation? Division or connection?

Just like this plant, when you water yourself with love, beauty, and creation… your bloom becomes a gift to all of creation simply because it exists.

New opportunities and connections (bees and butterflies) can come directly to you. Your joy impacts those who encounter you.

Life feeds life.

So what are you going to choose? by @carlynbryan

Comment “Sam” and I’ll send you links to watch or listen.

What does it actually mean to “hear” God? Or your intuition? Your inner guidance?

For many people, it isn’t an audible voice coming from outside of them. It’s far more subtle.

I absolutely *loved* this conversation with @sampompeii

Learning your unique form of inner guidance takes practice but it’s quite fun! God may speak to you like what’s described here… or it could be through direct knowing, sensations in your body, or even physical signs you encounter in the wild.
