#068: Living Authentically and Shedding Old Influences
Manage episode 446952158 series 3456083
Reflecting on the milestone of my 70th birthday, I found myself captivated by the concept of consciousness and the various influences that shape our lives. What if the key to elevating our consciousness is shedding those external influences that weigh us down? Inspired by a workshop with a dear friend exploring the teachings of Carolyn Myss, I began to examine the forces currently impacting me, from the tumult of the election and personal health challenges to the ever-evolving journey of parenthood. Join me as I invite you to ponder your own influences and consider how understanding them can lead us toward an optimized state of consciousness.
Travel with me into the past, where early dreams of acting, singing, and dancing set the stage for my life’s journey. Yet, the story veers as I confront the complex relationship between my identity and the Catholic Church, which led to a period of inauthenticity as a gay person. Fast forward to the present, where spiritual guides like Dr. David Walker and Eric Butterworth have played pivotal roles in realigning me with my true self. Together, let's reflect on the influences we choose today, for they are the architects of the future we aspire to create.
