What if fear could be the key to unlocking abundance in your life? In this eye-opening episode, I share a profound conversation I had with The Divine about an entirely new way to look at FEAR. Spoiler alert: it’s not what you think! The Divine revealed that FEAR means “Forgive, so Fun Energy Acts Resourceful”—a concept that left me speechless and completely inspired.

Here’s what we’ll explore together:

✨ How fear, often misunderstood as a limiting force, is actually an indicator of untapped power.

✨ The role of forgiveness in releasing resistance, reclaiming your power, and opening the doors to abundance.

✨ Why fun, playful energy is essential to aligning with your dreams and embodying your Divine essence.

✨ How intentional energy, guided by your desires, creates the foundation for manifestation.

✨ The importance of Resourceful Action in building momentum and partnering with The Divine to fulfill your goals.

We’ll also walk through practical steps to transform fear into a powerful ally, including creating Intentions, using Ho’oponopono, and taking inspired, resourceful action. You’ll learn how to recognize fear as an invitation to play with The Divine and leverage it to manifest your dreams.

Let’s embrace the magic of FEAR and turn it into the ultimate tool for manifesting abundance. Are you ready to play with The Divine? Let’s dive in!
