  SPEAKER_01: This is our combined episode.
• 0:08
  SPEAKER_01: I'm Reverend Honey Borden.
• 0:10
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm Michael Abramson.
• 0:12
  SPEAKER_01: We are delighted to have you here as we come together every other week and bring what is in our heart, and as always, in raw real way.
• 0:25
  SPEAKER_01: So welcoming all of you to this special episode.
• 0:29
  SPEAKER_01: And record a special episode as it is right before we are shy, let's say 10 days before the spring equinox, which takes place on Friday, March 20th.
• 0:43
  SPEAKER_01: And there are a few things in our hearts that we want to share with you.
• 0:47
  SPEAKER_01: And before doing so, let's just go ahead and welcome you.
• 0:50
  SPEAKER_01: Thank you so much.
• 0:51
  SPEAKER_01: This podcast is a community podcast.
• 0:55
  SPEAKER_01: You are all part of this journey that we are embarking, that we are walking, as we align with mighty God's presence, and we live through that embodiment of the truth and all the things that we face along the way that is part of it: the good, the bad, the ugly, and the amazing, the fantastic, the phenomenal.
• 1:17
  SPEAKER_01: This is the human journey.
• 1:19
  SPEAKER_01: And as we share, give voice to things that are hidden, as also voice to things that are visible, we bring these into this place of awareness through this podcast.
• 1:34
  SPEAKER_01: So you also have permission, give yourself permission to be your authentic true self and be the foodest expression that God Almighty made you, especially in everything that you're experiencing.
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_01: So welcome, welcome, welcome.
• 1:50
  SPEAKER_00: We thank you for taking the time.
• 1:51
  SPEAKER_00: We're always grateful for those that have followed us and know that we really appreciate your comments, your feedback, and all that you share.
• 1:59
  SPEAKER_00: Because as Honey said, these are times where we get to be very open, very transparent, and authentic in what's happening, and what an amazing time we're in in this shift, at least in the northern hemisphere, of moving from winter to spring.
• 2:16
  SPEAKER_02: Yes.
• 2:17
  SPEAKER_00: And a time that I feel has been a great journey of really cleansing, clearing, and letting go of the areas, whether physically, whether in our own possession of our belongings, or even within our patterns and beliefs, that we can release and make more space for this wonderful new spring that is upon and that is among us.
• 2:41
  SPEAKER_01: Isn't it good, Michael, that every single year we get to do this?
• 2:45
  SPEAKER_00: We do, and I feel this year it took us by greater surprise because who would have thought that yesterday we had a 85-degree day, which by surprise, or not by surprise, as Honey would say it, she was like, Michael, this might be just the perfect time to shampoo the carpets, which she was like hint, hint, you know, weeks ago when we had like I think a 65-degree day, cloudy and a bit out of temperature.
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_00: But as I was laying in the park yesterday, catching some beautiful rays and feeling like the sun was a bit hot, I thought maybe my beloved would really appreciate if I just go and rent one of those carpet cleaners and just go for the rugs to put that beautiful smile on her face.
• 3:32
  SPEAKER_02: And I sure smile, I sure smile, Michael.
• 3:36
  SPEAKER_02: You you take off my heart fast see, that's for sure.
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_00: Gentlemen, take note.
• 3:42
  SPEAKER_00: One of the most important things in higher love relationships or any relationship is to note what your woman or partner really values and loves.
• 3:53
  SPEAKER_00: Not only take note of it, make sure you not only practice it annually, but you surprise her or at least put all of your effort into it.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_00: Because I will tell you, coming out of a couple days cleansing and saying, Okay, I'm still gonna lift this heavy thing up three floors, I'm gonna go grab it, even though the sun may be setting.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_00: Let's do this.
• 4:15
  SPEAKER_00: And I put my heart, soul, and body into it.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_00: And uh how many kisses did you get?
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_02: Did you see all those kisses?
• 4:23
  SPEAKER_02: Did you see how much gratitude was expressed?
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_00: Did you see how much smile that was what I received, and I would tell the viewers when your partner smiles from ear to ear, you know you've done something right for the day.
• 4:38
  SPEAKER_00: And you know, by no accident does it happen because on a serious nerd, you know, what I appreciate, honey, is you know, you've told me many times, really pay attention to the things that I really value in life.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_00: And I I understand how important it is to have a clean setting.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_00: And I and I recognize that yesterday when finishing it, and I think many that are in an environment that when it's clean and organized, you can really sense a different level of energy.
• 5:05
  SPEAKER_00: Because as I finished cleaning on the carpets, it just felt like there was this new frequency of like, wow, everything is clean, everything has been, let's just say, cleared, so it presents this whole new space, this whole new, let's just say, I like to say dimension, but like area that allows you to walk.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_01: Did you feel it inside of you or in the space in the living room?
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_00: I felt it within me because I felt like when I when I see it outside of me, it automatically makes me feel like I'm adjusting to a higher, cleaner space.
• 5:45
  SPEAKER_00: Like I feel like many, many people can see like I don't know if any of you, like when you walk into a room that's very clean, all of a sudden it makes you feel inside, like, wow, I feel like this is something that reflects what it's like inside to be in a very pure, clear state of being.
• 6:02
  SPEAKER_01: So this is why, like, remember I told you, I was like, Michael, the energy here, like it it needs to be clean, it needs to be.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_01: I've been saying it for a couple of months.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_01: Like, I it's like I we need to clean this because I I I I experience it deeply.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm sure it's like any one of us when we walk into a room, and we all have it at times, there's no judgment, but when we walk into a room and there's you know, clothes hanging, there's you know, a disorganized statement, it sometimes feels and dust and disorganized.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_00: So to spider waves I can so to clear everything and to open up space, you know, what we see, and what obviously Honey has been doing for the 10 years that I've known her, is to prepare this space before the spring equinox that coincides with the Persian New Year.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_00: And the ability, what when we really look at it, it's like we're clearing out the old and welcoming the new.
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_00: And so as we do this, I uh invite the viewers, like in these next 10 days, what is it that you could clear out, whether physically, or what is it that you could choose to say, I no longer want to hold on to?
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_00: Because I appreciate, honey, how you've really helped me see, like, okay, look in the closet and just what clothes do you just not wear, or doesn't feel like it's your new you or your million-dollar self, or that authentic being that is you, because we're here to raise into a greater version of ourselves.
• 7:31
  SPEAKER_00: Or what areas in your car on your desk can you clean organize?
• 7:35
  SPEAKER_01: Hold on, let's okay, listen, we're gonna talk around real for a second.
• 7:39
  SPEAKER_01: So it's been 10 years.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_01: You know, the Persian New Year means everything to me.
• 7:43
  SPEAKER_01: Like, I this is the one part that I absolutely love getting everything ready.
• 7:48
  SPEAKER_02: And over the years, you haven't really enjoyed so much the you know the details behind and the cleaning that I go into, and it's like, you know, and I remember the one year with the thick in the cabinets in the kitchen, how organized everything.
• 8:05
  SPEAKER_02: Oh my goodness.
• 8:06
  SPEAKER_00: Because what happens is sometimes it's like very last minute, and before you know it, honey's like, okay, you know, today is the 19th, and tomorrow is the new year, so we're gonna be able to do that.
• 8:15
  SPEAKER_01: No, no, but usually there's no way we do it always.
• 8:19
  SPEAKER_01: It has to be a couple of weeks before it's been like with this one, even a month.
• 8:22
  SPEAKER_01: Michael, start with the closet, please.
• 8:25
  SPEAKER_01: Like I've been saying it like even beginning of the year, Michael, please your car, this and that.
• 8:29
  SPEAKER_01: But let's talk about it.
• 8:30
  SPEAKER_00: Sometimes you bring it like to an echelon higher than what it is.
• 8:34
  SPEAKER_01: Sometimes, like, you go because they you know, to traditionally, just so that just so that the viewers know, also traditionally, a full month before the 20th of March, we start.
• 8:47
  SPEAKER_01: So we you know, traditionally every drawer gets rearranged, anything that's not used gets put aside, and dust is a huge one.
• 8:58
  SPEAKER_01: We I mean, we have a cleaner that comes every week, so we don't really have dust, but still everything needs to get cleared.
• 9:05
  SPEAKER_01: And on a different level, for me, that that's one part which is the traditional way, and for them, it's all about to bring the new, you must get rid of old, you must give it away.
• 9:18
  SPEAKER_01: So, this has been part of my culture for so many years.
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_01: I grew up in this, so it means it has that much importance to me.
• 9:27
  SPEAKER_00: And on another level in the US, we do have that clean spring, that clean clean spring cleaning, in which it's very common for us to, you know, as winter shifts, it's that clearing out, cleansing, and purifying of the old so that we can move into that new spring level of regime.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_01: So ours goes just a bit more into the tradition.
• 9:48
  SPEAKER_01: There's you know, as you know, there's so much more involved with it.
• 9:51
  SPEAKER_01: Or we prepare the food we eat, the way we set up the table, like all those details that go because of the spring economics, and what that really represents back to the Zoroassian times around 7,000 years ago, what it represents, the spring that comes out, which is the lion.
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_01: The lion has been able to get its roar out, its fire out, its light is out, the light over darkness.
• 10:18
  SPEAKER_01: So that's what the symbology is about.
• 10:21
  SPEAKER_01: That's what we cling, so we bring the awareness, we give it up so we can be filled with light and in light in our lives, life in our families, light everywhere.
• 10:32
  SPEAKER_01: So that's what it really represents.
• 10:34
  SPEAKER_01: And for me, on a different level with us, as we came into 2026, as we've been sharing, is the year of celebration.
• 10:42
  SPEAKER_01: So we already know this is already ordained, this is already taken place.
• 10:47
  SPEAKER_01: God Almighty has blessed us, it's already put the steps behind, and it's already been given.
• 10:54
  SPEAKER_01: So we don't even have to ask it, it's already been given, and we've been feeling it deep, right?
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_01: We don't know what it exactly looks like, but yet we can experience it.
• 11:04
  SPEAKER_01: But in order to be materialized into this plane, it cannot come when we have still clutter or we have things that we don't want.
• 11:14
  SPEAKER_01: Why are we holding on to things we don't want?
• 11:17
  SPEAKER_01: Why are we not opening up a space of what we want?
• 11:21
  SPEAKER_01: So this is this becomes part of the emotions that also gets the opportunity to be cleansed, the mental thoughts that gets to be cleansed, because we have to utilize these towards the direction of our purpose.
• 11:38
  SPEAKER_01: And when it is cluttered by these things that we don't really care for, we're not allowing ourselves to go into the celebration.
• 11:46
  SPEAKER_01: Therefore, that which is awaiting for us to celebrate cannot become.
• 11:52
  SPEAKER_01: So that's why I'm always behind it.
• 11:54
  SPEAKER_01: So yesterday, as you saw me just jumping for joy, and you could feel, and and what was amazing because of the fire, right?
• 12:04
  SPEAKER_02: The couple weeks before, we we ended up like washing out the curtains beforehand, and we're like so ahead, it's 10 days.
• 12:12
  SPEAKER_02: Like I'm just like, wow, look at us.
• 12:14
  SPEAKER_02: This is amazing.
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_02: We're we're doing amazing, and let's talk about also arrangement.
• 12:20
  SPEAKER_01: So, as Michael, as I shared with you before this, I was like, Michael, I feel like there's a change, we can't do a change.
• 12:26
  SPEAKER_01: So, of course, I put the chairs up.
• 12:29
  SPEAKER_00: Wait, wait, wait, pause, pause for anyone that knows Honey.
• 12:33
  SPEAKER_00: And most people, you know, when they usually create a room, it may last a couple months, maybe a year, maybe that's their setting.
• 12:42
  SPEAKER_00: But Honey has this feeling where when she creates a seam, it's almost like a play.
• 12:48
  SPEAKER_00: Well, actually, it really is a play because the play has to be broken down every so often where the furniture changes, plans change, and so I feel like there's a constant act of play going in our living space because after a couple of months, she's like, Nope, I'm tired.
• 13:03
  SPEAKER_00: Something has to shift, something has to change, which requires moving furniture, moving every other item, and really saying, What do you think about this?
• 13:10
  SPEAKER_00: What do you think about this?
• 13:11
  SPEAKER_00: Let's move this, let's move this because I'm ready for change.
• 13:14
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and I like it, but sometimes it takes me by surprise because usually when it happens, I either have several tasks or the day before I did something big, and I was like, Listen, I have a favor.
• 13:24
  SPEAKER_00: Could you just move this?
• 13:26
  SPEAKER_00: No, actually, could you just move this?
• 13:27
  SPEAKER_00: What do you think about this?
• 13:28
  SPEAKER_00: Actually, I'm getting this table here.
• 13:30
  SPEAKER_00: What do you think about this?
• 13:32
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm like, usually having like a couple things as today was a busy day, and there's this now.
• 13:36
  SPEAKER_00: No, one more last question.
• 13:38
  SPEAKER_00: What do you think about?
• 13:39
  SPEAKER_00: Do you really think we should get this?
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm like, honey, go for it because now I recognize that.
• 13:43
  SPEAKER_00: Like, it doesn't matter what I say or what I do.
• 13:46
  SPEAKER_01: You have come, you really have come along.
• 13:49
  SPEAKER_01: It's amazing.
• 13:51
  SPEAKER_01: Because you know, so you know, you know, it's the energy again.
• 13:54
  SPEAKER_01: So again, I've you uh you've seen me, I've changed on the inside.
• 13:58
  SPEAKER_01: I'm a different person again, and just as you have, so the energy has to match, it's not matching.
• 14:04
  SPEAKER_01: So it had again it has to shift, and I and I know it as a place of frequency.
• 14:11
  SPEAKER_01: So I have no attachment.
• 14:13
  SPEAKER_00: I would like to ask your viewers for anyone that's listening, and maybe you can comment.
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_00: How often do you change your furniture in this style in your place?
• 14:21
  SPEAKER_00: When I say that, like, you know, move the couches a different way, move your end tables a different way.
• 14:26
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, I'm sure the beds stay in a certain way, but how often do you like, you know, I think comforters, pillows, I want to change, you know, how the chairs look.
• 14:35
  SPEAKER_00: I want to change the tables, I want to change the chairs, I want to change each ornament.
• 14:40
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe I just do that every what, two months, three months, year, or maybe just the house stays the same.
• 14:45
  SPEAKER_00: Like my mom's house looks like it's been there since you know the early 80s, but that's my mom's way, and I know that's a bit extreme of not changing.
• 14:53
  SPEAKER_00: But what would you say, viewers?
• 14:55
  SPEAKER_00: Do you ever feel that urge to want the constantly change?
• 15:00
  SPEAKER_00: Because I I don't have that familiarity.
• 15:02
  SPEAKER_00: Honey has it where I feel it's like a cycle every couple months, and I'm getting used to it where I'm just not attached to not every couple months, more like if I'm if I've gone through an internal transformation.
• 15:15
  SPEAKER_00: It's been every couple months.
• 15:17
  SPEAKER_01: I have to, when it's a special measurement, I have to the the outside has to reflect it.
• 15:24
  SPEAKER_01: And and especially the last 20 years, as I go through it, I I just have to adjust, otherwise, it doesn't feel right to me.
• 15:32
  SPEAKER_01: I already feel we have to move because we've changed again.
• 15:37
  SPEAKER_01: And and I love and I love to and I love that feeling, but viewers can certainly respond to that, and I'm very aware for some people this is very difficult.
• 15:48
  SPEAKER_00: I think for most people, change is difficult.
• 15:50
  SPEAKER_00: I think people like to stay in their comfort zones, and like when change comes, it almost feels like you have to let things go, which people usually like to keep things, and what I always say is people keep things so much where we didn't realize that we're like almost sudden filling up spaces that we don't need anymore.
• 16:06
  SPEAKER_00: So I do appreciate your change.
• 16:08
  SPEAKER_00: I do appreciate it because it does give a difference of not being attached to things and at the same time changing the scenery.
• 16:19
  SPEAKER_00: I I just look forward to the day that you know we maybe have a couple houses, and you know, one house can just stay a certain way, and another house you can change all you want and have some private assistants with you, and they can do everything that you say.
• 16:31
  SPEAKER_01: Your muscles have been amazing with so appreciate it.
• 16:34
  SPEAKER_00: I can just say it's springtime, and I have several assistants that are all helping.
• 16:39
  SPEAKER_01: Let's let's talk about something here.
• 16:40
  SPEAKER_01: So, this is for you viewers.
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_01: You know, last week you got a chance to hear my cousin, this week actually, my cousin Tara being on with a friend Zora.
• 16:51
  SPEAKER_01: We talked about Iran, and really thank you.
• 16:54
  SPEAKER_01: By the way, that was like the most amount of listeners I I had.
• 16:58
  SPEAKER_01: So thank you so much for that special episode.
• 17:02
  SPEAKER_01: And I want to tie this to this.
• 17:05
  SPEAKER_01: So when we when we left Iran, we migrated out of Iran, the way we left it, absolutely nothing.
• 17:16
  SPEAKER_01: It was my mom had one suitcase, and me and my brother had little tiny suitcases, small, like carry-ons.
• 17:24
  SPEAKER_01: Our entire life, like my bedroom, you know, toys, like nothing.
• 17:31
  SPEAKER_01: There was nothing.
• 17:32
  SPEAKER_01: So that was the first time and as I experienced complete loss, like complete loss, and and I've gone through a few cycles like this, where that also taught me a few things.
• 17:52
  SPEAKER_01: That experience taught me that as long as I'm standing, I can create everything again, so there is no attachment, and I create it better, always better, always greater, even more fantastic.
• 18:08
  SPEAKER_01: So there is no limit to what can be created, and I love the way it's like that God Almighty moves through me, and I and I express it in another way, and and it really started with that out of nothing, have to create, out of nothing, and when we first came, we we had nothing.
• 18:28
  SPEAKER_01: So, you know, some of you know I was on foot stamp, we had we had like my aunt came and tried to get us like from goodwill, like even like mattress and stuff, and it it's so weird being being so wealthy and coming here to like completely poor.
• 18:50
  SPEAKER_01: Like it's just the shocking of it is so shocking.
• 18:54
  SPEAKER_01: So, but it really taught me to not it humbled and taught me not to be attached.
• 19:02
  SPEAKER_01: I can do it again.
• 19:03
  SPEAKER_01: So I've gone through that, I've gone through several times, even with businesses, not be attached.
• 19:11
  SPEAKER_01: So I don't have that attachment because I have this 100% trust that when that comes to an end, I can express again, again, and again, and I'll do it in the most amazing way.
• 19:26
  SPEAKER_01: So there's no attachment to that.
• 19:29
  SPEAKER_01: And I and I appreciate the shift because what I found is when I go through this internal change, right?
• 19:38
  SPEAKER_01: Especially if let's say I've met some of you maybe relating to this.
• 19:43
  SPEAKER_01: What I found is if I've gone through an interpersonal experience where there was something particularly deep part of my, let's say, childhood or teenagers that was really traumatic, and I was able to courageously meet it, face it, and have it take healing inside of me where it transformed when God Almighty came into that and this space opened up.
• 20:11
  SPEAKER_01: What happens is then when I look at when I look at my living space, that represents the old that was created.
• 20:22
  SPEAKER_01: So when I when I come in, it doesn't match.
• 20:25
  SPEAKER_01: It's like I'm it's wrong.
• 20:28
  SPEAKER_01: So I have to rearrange things, reshape, move things so it matches my new state that's much more open.
• 20:37
  SPEAKER_01: And this is why I do that, because then my thoughts are better, my emotions are otherwise, it's a it's a like it's how do you call it?
• 20:46
  SPEAKER_01: It's a mismatch of a frequency, and it doesn't flow.
• 20:50
  SPEAKER_01: So, and I've seen this, and you've seen this.
• 20:53
  SPEAKER_01: Whenever I put that into action right away, open it up, what's the next thing?
• 20:59
  SPEAKER_01: More amazing projects are more clients, more abundance, more it just floodgate opens up.
• 21:07
  SPEAKER_01: And that's been that's been with me.
• 21:08
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, it feels like it's a good metaphor when we look at you know springtime, and as we clear the gardens of the old weeds or we clear the ditches so that we invite what is now being seed within.
• 21:22
  SPEAKER_00: And it's really exciting, I feel, in this time for many of us because it's as no as we know what we're moving into, that springtime energy is really this abundant rebirth expansion.
• 21:37
  SPEAKER_00: And I feel what I appreciate about this is when we're ahead of the game in which we're like really digging our ditches and allowing ourselves to prepare what's before us.
• 21:48
  SPEAKER_01: Prepare to receive the goodness, the greatness of God Almighty.
• 21:52
  SPEAKER_01: Right, right.
• 21:53
  SPEAKER_00: And then the more we're open and have more space, then that greater abundance gets to flourish, just as like we Clear the gardens, open up the space for the new flowers, then when it blooms, there's this place to flourish.
• 22:06
  SPEAKER_00: And I feel that's one thing I love about the springtime because it's so beautiful when not only the outside is just being bloomed with areas, but I feel most of us when that warmth comes, when that change comes, when we come out of the darker days and the evenings light up, then all of a sudden there becomes this greater joy and happiness.
• 22:27
  SPEAKER_00: And I feel even that creativity time really starts to spur in a whole new way because we're feeling lighter and jovial.
• 22:35
  SPEAKER_00: And all of a sudden it's like, wow, look at these opportunities that are coming because we've created that opportunity to say, hmm, what am I now allowing to expand myself into?
• 22:45
  SPEAKER_00: And I feel this time period it's even greater because of this year of 2026, 01.
• 22:52
  SPEAKER_00: And what we notice is this celebration energy that we see that's continuing.
• 22:58
  SPEAKER_00: And when I say celebration energy, it's that inward celebration of that God Almighty with us.
• 23:06
  SPEAKER_00: And that God Almighty is here to celebrate beyond what the current circumstances are or what the outer environment might look like.
• 23:14
  SPEAKER_00: It's that infinite presence that's allowing us to know that it is the supply of everything that we want to create, everything that we want to bring forth.
• 23:25
  SPEAKER_00: And it's just of infinite potential.
• 23:28
  SPEAKER_00: And when we really harness that, then it allows us to open up the opportunities of like, wow, where do I want to bring greater expression, greater levels of that ability to see what God is offering me each day, how it's being presented, and where I want to move into.
• 23:49
  SPEAKER_00: And to me, you know, you said it earlier this morning of like, how can that, how can you please God in that way where it's giving us the opportunity to really let that come through us?
• 24:04
  SPEAKER_01: I'm really glad you said that, Michael, especially for viewers, this is really important because I truly feel that way, and especially when I mentor others, when I'm doing like deep life mentoring with someone, this is the space that I really address because for me, when the reason why I like the house so clean, the reason why I like it so organized, the reason why I like it so impeccable, because I am I am standing in the witness of God Almighty, and I love when I can feel God Almighty so pleased because God Almighty can come to a beautiful space.
• 24:46
  SPEAKER_01: When we are creating something beautiful and wonderful, and and and that just exudes that that prosperous space, that's God Almighty.
• 25:00
  SPEAKER_01: When it's when it's you know like messy and it's like darker, or if it's not glowing, or you know, there's no flowers and all that.
• 25:12
  SPEAKER_01: You can't experience it's hard to experience God Almighty.
• 25:16
  SPEAKER_01: So for me, that to me, the most sanctuary place needs to be in your home, your bedroom, your living room.
• 25:23
  SPEAKER_01: So sanctuary.
• 25:24
  SPEAKER_01: That's why, like, whoever have you ever ever heard any person coming to our place not being like, wow, I feel so good here.
• 25:33
  SPEAKER_01: We haven't even had one.
• 25:34
  SPEAKER_01: That's why, because it's a frequency where God Almighty comes, and there's all this meditation and prayer we do every morning.
• 25:42
  SPEAKER_01: So for me, every morning is like, wow, this is in your honor, your truly your honor, God Almighty.
• 25:49
  SPEAKER_01: And I want to touch up on something also in here.
• 25:52
  SPEAKER_01: So we talked about celebration, we talked about the fire hearse, right?
• 25:56
  SPEAKER_01: Like that is here, and the this this is this is probably the hardest thing that I want to say.
• 26:03
  SPEAKER_01: Growing up, Michael, I was taught culturally, you know, especially family.
• 26:12
  SPEAKER_01: If, for example, you are having a celebration, don't really share it, don't make other people uncomfortable, you know, all of that.
• 26:20
  SPEAKER_01: And this is a lot of stuff that we cover when we teach the mentorship every month on the true prosperous living.
• 26:28
  SPEAKER_01: By the way, our next true prosperous living mentorship is two weeks from today, so it is on the 25th of March, it's at 3 p.m.
• 26:38
  SPEAKER_01: All of you are welcome to join, sign up for it.
• 26:41
  SPEAKER_01: It is$188 a month, and we really go deep in the true prosperous state from God Almighty.
• 26:49
  SPEAKER_01: So, coming back here, this celebration was always like not to bring it, especially in the Middle East, you're gonna get the evil eye and all of that stuff.
• 26:59
  SPEAKER_01: Now, I want to tie this to something.
• 27:02
  SPEAKER_01: There was another part of it too.
• 27:04
  SPEAKER_01: When people are hurting and suffering, do not show celebration.
• 27:09
  SPEAKER_01: When people are going hard time, don't be in celebration, which you've heard we talk about.
• 27:15
  SPEAKER_01: And in this now, as the Persian New Year is coming, it's on the 20th.
• 27:22
  SPEAKER_01: My heart really is for the Iranian people in two areas.
• 27:29
  SPEAKER_01: One, the ones that are in the US, in all these other countries, the majority that are in celebration that there is a change taking place.
• 27:39
  SPEAKER_01: And also my heart is for those who are actually very concerned about what is taking place, the retaliation as well as more bombing over Iran.
• 27:50
  SPEAKER_01: And then my other part is you know, how are the people who are in Iran going to celebrate the New Year's there?
• 27:58
  SPEAKER_01: So that there is that.
• 28:00
  SPEAKER_01: We've we got a chance to finally.
• 28:02
  SPEAKER_01: My mom got a chance to talk to her brother, I don't know if I told you, in Iran, and he said it was so beautiful.
• 28:08
  SPEAKER_01: He said they are celebrating, they're gonna have no ruse, they're gonna celebrate it all out because they're so excited about this change.
• 28:17
  SPEAKER_01: They are they are willing for all these bombs to be dropped.
• 28:22
  SPEAKER_01: There because this this concurrent condition of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the the fundamentalists, is by far worse.
• 28:34
  SPEAKER_01: After 47 years, they've done with it.
• 28:36
  SPEAKER_01: So they rather have that and they're choosing to celebrate.
• 28:40
  SPEAKER_01: Now, why I'm bringing this up is because as we're here, as we're clearing this, as we're opening space, as I'm preparing for the New Year's next week, Friday, I'm still choosing to remain in celebration while knowing all of this is happening and celebrating for those who can't celebrate, beautiful, holding that vision as celebration.
• 29:08
  SPEAKER_01: So for me, it's like even deeper this year than ever before.
• 29:13
  SPEAKER_01: And I really I just thank you so much for helping the cleaning, the carpets.
• 29:19
  SPEAKER_01: It really means a lot, and again, like if you really look at it, this just come to me.
• 29:23
  SPEAKER_01: When we're clearing the floor, like like if you really understand the depth of it, we're clearing the floor, right?
• 29:34
  SPEAKER_01: Because what are we stepping on?
• 29:36
  SPEAKER_01: Right, we're not stepping on dirt anymore.
• 29:38
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we're stepping on purity, right?
• 29:42
  SPEAKER_01: We're not that it was before, it's just we we're stepping into this new that's clean walk.
• 29:48
  SPEAKER_01: It's like a different walk, right?
• 29:50
  SPEAKER_01: The metaphor of it is amazing.
• 29:52
  SPEAKER_00: And I appreciate how you say celebrate, even for those that can celebrate, because culturally sometimes people look around us and say, how can you celebrate in light of all this devastation?
• 30:04
  SPEAKER_00: How can you celebrate in times of war?
• 30:07
  SPEAKER_00: How can you celebrate?
• 30:08
  SPEAKER_00: And I feel it comes down to a point is celebration is our natural ability to seize life every single day.
• 30:17
  SPEAKER_00: We can celebrate every aspect of our God-given nature.
• 30:23
  SPEAKER_00: Celebrate our hands to serve, our feet to walk, our ability to really honor what God has given us.
• 30:32
  SPEAKER_00: And so I feel every win, every opportunity that we get to celebrate is glorifying what has been placed within us.
• 30:40
  SPEAKER_00: And so as we look at this springtime, this spring equinox of Persian New Year, and even everything that happens to the day, ask yourself, what is it that I can celebrate more of?
• 30:52
  SPEAKER_00: How can I end the day and say, hmm, how can I celebrate my day even greater tomorrow for maybe areas that I didn't acknowledge today?
• 31:00
  SPEAKER_00: Or what awareness can I bring into so that that celebration energy can provide that momentum of thriving, expanding, and excelling?
• 31:10
  SPEAKER_00: Because sometimes, you know, we've been taught to be modest or humble, and that's beautiful.
• 31:16
  SPEAKER_00: But at the same time, if we're not celebrating everything that we are achieving, or even the hardships in life that we're overcoming, then we're fully not appreciating what's before us.
• 31:27
  SPEAKER_00: And I feel that celebration energy is very close to the gratitude of what we get to experience, what we get to in this life.
• 31:34
  SPEAKER_00: So it's an opportunity that I feel that we can really help that because if anything, that celebration energy becomes contagious and we get to share that within that community as we celebrate, you know, all those that are listening, as we celebrate the greatness that's before us.
• 31:52
  SPEAKER_00: And really, what I feel is our monumental right is to celebrate the goodness so that goodness can get a greater light and exposure than to maybe the things in life that pull us down and our common day-to-day reactions.
• 32:06
  SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
• 32:06
  SPEAKER_00: Look to see what you can celebrate, honor that, because I celebrate that this is one of the most monumental times of spring where it's like all of a sudden we know there's going to be this just burst of life.
• 32:21
  SPEAKER_00: And when we're in that burst of life inward, I feel like there's this inertia that starts to accelerate even faster because we're not only growing outside with it, but we're surging within us of all the areas that we've cleaned and open ourselves up to now to ignite what that springtime goes all the way to the summer solstice.
• 32:41
  SPEAKER_01: I love that.
• 32:42
  SPEAKER_01: And don't you feel, Michael, and together with the audience, we are again changing this old program conditioning.
• 32:51
  SPEAKER_01: Just because something is happening, no, we can't celebrate.
• 32:55
  SPEAKER_01: Who says we cannot?
• 32:56
  SPEAKER_01: Who came up with that?
• 32:58
  SPEAKER_01: We can we can still go through a difficult time and still celebrate.
• 33:03
  SPEAKER_01: We can be hurting and still celebrate.
• 33:06
  SPEAKER_01: You know, this is something that I taught into in my woman's group as well.
• 33:11
  SPEAKER_01: So there is this and who said it has to be this theater?
• 33:15
  SPEAKER_01: Who came up with that?
• 33:17
  SPEAKER_01: And let's challenge that.
• 33:19
  SPEAKER_01: Why not?
• 33:19
  SPEAKER_01: God Almighty every day is celebrating us, is here.
• 33:23
  SPEAKER_01: It is up to us what we choose.
• 33:25
  SPEAKER_01: We can go through things and still choose to celebrate.
• 33:29
  SPEAKER_01: Like, did you say the la the two weeks that I could barely walk?
• 33:33
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, it was painful, but I chose to remain in celebration.
• 33:37
  SPEAKER_01: And you know what?
• 33:38
  SPEAKER_01: With that attitude, your entire body's functioning better, you heal faster, things move better.
• 33:47
  SPEAKER_01: Then why not?
• 33:48
  SPEAKER_01: Why not choose that as an option?
• 33:50
  SPEAKER_00: It's an elevated frequency.
• 33:52
  SPEAKER_00: Totally really brings joy and happiness.
• 33:54
  SPEAKER_01: It's it's not, it doesn't mean you don't have compassion.
• 33:57
  SPEAKER_01: I feel that for anything you have compassion, and from that you extend the greatness even better.
• 34:03
  SPEAKER_01: It's much more uplifting.
• 34:05
  SPEAKER_00: If you think it feels wonderful, exactly.
• 34:09
  SPEAKER_01: So as we as we embrace these next few days, we welcome you to embrace and just give yourself opportunity.
• 34:20
  SPEAKER_00: Go through your closets, go through your car, go through your drawers, go through your limited beliefs and old emotions and patterns that you want to say, no longer do I want to carry these exactly so that I can release them, give them back to where they started, give it to God, write it down, plant them, burn them, give yourself the permission to release what no longer you need to do.
• 34:46
  SPEAKER_01: You know why it's easy to start with the drawers and closet, Michael?
• 34:50
  SPEAKER_01: Because when we physically touch them, there's so much energy to that with these clothes and stuff.
• 34:55
  SPEAKER_01: When you start that, the emotions start to move and the mentals start to move, you know.
• 35:01
  SPEAKER_01: So if you and you know what?
• 35:02
  SPEAKER_01: Here's another tip.
• 35:04
  SPEAKER_01: Remember, I was sharing for you beautiful viewers.
• 35:09
  SPEAKER_01: Go ahead and upgrade a little bit.
• 35:11
  SPEAKER_01: It doesn't need to be in the thousands, but if you want, go do that.
• 35:15
  SPEAKER_01: Upgrade a few hundred dollars, upgrade maybe your sheets, upgrade pillows, upgrade flowers, upgrade, upgrade, upgrade.
• 35:25
  SPEAKER_01: Let the blessings of blossoming come into your life.
• 35:29
  SPEAKER_01: If you keep it the same, you're gonna keep doing what you've been doing.
• 35:33
  SPEAKER_01: If you allow yourself to take a couple of steps, you're going to create that change.
• 35:38
  SPEAKER_01: And that change would only benefit you and benefit everybody else around you.
• 35:44
  SPEAKER_01: So that's for us.
• 35:45
  SPEAKER_01: And we have next time we'll be recording this.
• 35:50
  SPEAKER_01: You'll be having your men's circle, right?
• 35:52
  SPEAKER_00: Right on the last Thursday of the 26th, I'll be having my next online conscious of all men's circle.
• 36:00
  SPEAKER_00: This last one was amazing.
• 36:02
  SPEAKER_00: This was great.
• 36:02
  SPEAKER_00: We had a great amount of men from the East Coast to the West Coast all the way down to Florida, and just a great connection of men that have come together really to what I see connect in a greater version, that we share topics and allow each other to dive into areas where I feel most men don't have that opportunity because it's a safe, sacred space that we get to be authentic, real, transparent, and most important, support one another in these days of conscious evolution, change, transformation.
• 36:34
  SPEAKER_00: And when you put one or more, even uh you know, great men of leaders and change makers, then it adds to the fire of what we can do to help promote what I see the greater leaders coming together.
• 36:46
  SPEAKER_01: I love it.
• 36:46
  SPEAKER_01: And that's your free circle.
• 36:48
  SPEAKER_01: It's so beautiful that you've been doing it's like nine years now.
• 36:51
  SPEAKER_01: It's amazing.
• 36:52
  SPEAKER_01: It's amazing.
• 36:53
  SPEAKER_01: It's amazing.
• 36:54
  SPEAKER_00: The start of what I see, even greater portions of working with men and just seeing that, you know, there's a lot of men that are hungry to have areas that we can talk about that we may not see so common in our outer environment, but we can come together easily in the comfort of our home and connect heart to heart all over the country, all over the world.
• 37:16
  SPEAKER_01: So I'm and the ones that want to go deeper, they can definitely do your course because that's a 12 module.
• 37:22
  SPEAKER_00: So there's a 12 course conscious of all men, a 12 self-guided series that have these principles that have allowed me to see that greater version of myself.
• 37:31
  SPEAKER_00: And for those that are interested, can easily email us at info at essentialalchemist.com.
• 37:36
  SPEAKER_01: I put the link that they can actually just purchase it right from the link.
• 37:40
  SPEAKER_00: It's you know, recently some men have called and have wanted to dive deeper into one-on-one work with my life mentorship.
• 37:47
  SPEAKER_00: And I love that because I feel like you and like what we can do is, you know, many of us because we're going through these shifts and changes of season to season, that it's important to speak to those that have walked to that path and really help navigate those through powerful ways that we can really support one another in our higher growth and our higher expression.
• 38:10
  SPEAKER_00: Mentoring is so important.
• 38:12
  SPEAKER_00: And I feel like it's become such a gift that Hein and I can do that not only individually but together.
• 38:18
  SPEAKER_01: So it's great because we have our own mentors, and then we get to mentor other in different areas.
• 38:23
  SPEAKER_01: We all support each other in that way.
• 38:25
  SPEAKER_01: I love that.
• 38:26
  SPEAKER_01: I love that.
• 38:28
  SPEAKER_01: So lots of blessings to all of you, dear hearts, and thank you so much.
• 38:32
  SPEAKER_01: Just thank you for being you.
• 38:34
  SPEAKER_01: Thank you for all that you're allowing your life.
• 38:38
  SPEAKER_00: And and thank you for celebrating yourself.
• 38:41
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe when you hear this call and you can really think deeper is as you're cleaning or as you're shifting into the spring, when you're doing this, come back once again because it is a theme is you know, what can I celebrate within me that's always been there?
• 38:56
  SPEAKER_00: What has God given me from day one that I know that when people are around me or I get the opportunity to be with family, that they look up to me in a certain way that I'm like, wow, I'm so grateful to have this gift or this skill or this special art or this creative side of me that I get to celebrate because really it's very I feel like we could celebrate so much more.
• 39:22
  SPEAKER_00: And the more we do that, it's this celebration of that God-given energy that's within us.
• 39:27
  SPEAKER_00: And when we give that back, it's like this refuel.
• 39:31
  SPEAKER_01: You're talking about give that back to yourself.
• 39:33
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, yeah.
• 39:34
  SPEAKER_01: So, you know, I love that because just taking a few moments, dare to celebrate yourself in that authenticity in the presence of God Almighty.
• 39:48
  SPEAKER_01: It's not not because you deserve it, none of that.
• 39:51
  SPEAKER_01: Just celebrate that you allowed, that you allowed, and rejoice in it.
• 39:57
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, rejoice.
• 40:00
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 40:00
  SPEAKER_00: So thank you all for joining on this wonderful day, this spring-like time where it was summer, Michael.
