Latest / faafo with courtney / part three: pull the plug, coming to america
Transcript
- 0:13Go hydrate. Hi, I'm back for part three. So when
- 0:19I went to go take a break, because I still have
- 0:23more notes, I heard, well, I didn't, I did hear
- 0:29pull the plug, but I was like, what does that,
- 0:32it resonated with me, like my, as my friend says,
- 0:35my spidey senses went off, right? Because when
- 0:40I went to go take a break, I was wondering what
- 0:43collective global scale a worldwide scale does
- 0:51what i'm having what i'm picking up have to do
- 0:57with the macro and i couldn't figure it out until
- 1:03i heard pull the plug so i'm going to get back
- 1:09into my notes but just stay with me as i ramble
- 1:14and get through the energies right now right
- 1:17some of you may be feeling right now some of
- 1:23you may be feeling right now that You are, no,
- 1:31let me back up, rephrase this. Some of you right
- 1:35now may be realizing or recognizing that there
- 1:41are people around you who are envious of your
- 1:49ability to be able to move freely. And that might
- 2:00mean without restrictions because you're not
- 2:04tied to a job, you're not tied to children, you're
- 2:07not tied to a partner, you're not tied to something
- 2:10that restricts your movement. This might even
- 2:15apply to able -bodied people, right? It's going
- 2:18to look different for different people. It might
- 2:22also look like some of you are realizing that
- 2:26you have people around you who have been envious
- 2:30of Your ability to think independently or differently
- 2:39than how you've been raised or conditioned or
- 2:42that even that you are happy. Some people may
- 2:48also be you may also be finding out that there
- 2:52are people around you who do not like the fact
- 3:01that you have access to different people than
- 3:07what. you were born into conditioned into communities
- 3:11that you were in or whatever right the reasons
- 3:17why they may be envious or jealous are going
- 3:23to vary and how that looks for you is going to
- 3:26vary so again it may be some that can travel
- 3:29it might be some that are self -employed or whatever
- 3:32right how their envy and jealousy might be showing
- 3:35up differently It may not even be showing up
- 3:39in the 3D everyday life, but it might be showing
- 3:42up in dreams and visions or word of mouth through
- 3:44gossip, hearsay or whatever. You might be becoming
- 3:48aware of it or you may also have been given a
- 3:53small nudge or a hint. So I was wondering, why
- 3:59is that coming up now? How might this tie into
- 4:032016, 2026? What does all of that have to do
- 4:09with pulling the plug? So as I was reflecting
- 4:14back on what happened in my life after 2016,
- 4:20my near -death experience and the chaos, just
- 4:27the absolute mayhem that happened because of
- 4:34that, I was very much... still trying to be in
- 4:41control and hold on to certain things right at
- 4:45that point in my life I mean I had I was I was
- 4:49pretty good at detachment and letting go of like
- 4:51material things but I still needed to be in control
- 4:54of the outcome of things that were happening
- 4:58around me I hadn't yet awoken to the fact that
- 5:01oh I can be the magician and I can manipulate
- 5:03how things are going which essentially just kind
- 5:08of comes down to how we respond to things, right?
- 5:14So if I look back, let me just say this first.
- 5:18Hi, my name is Courtney. Today is Sunday, October
- 5:2218th, 2026. This is part three of I don't know
- 5:26how many videos because they're not going to
- 5:30make sense for many right now, but I need to
- 5:33set this up because I need these videos available
- 5:36to me later on. Some of you will see this now.
- 5:40It will not make sense. but it's going to click
- 5:42to you one day and you'll be like, oh, I understand
- 5:44what she was saying now. So anywho, I had notes,
- 5:50but the more I talk, the more downloads I get.
- 5:55So I'm getting downloads so people, some people
- 5:58can get some uploads. So 2016, 2016 was the opening,
- 6:08the opening scene, right? 2017 was the theatrics,
- 6:17the complete theatrics, right? That unfolded
- 6:22like a telenovela. And then late 2017, but 2017
- 6:33was like, like there were things that were happening
- 6:38in the public eye with me and others that, were
- 6:47overshadowed for my life personally because of
- 6:51what was happening in my life on an intimate
- 6:57level and just me being able to find space to
- 7:00be alone and to think and it was just so like
- 7:042017 there was chaos just stay with me for a
- 7:08second like there was so much chaos happening
- 7:11in my life in 2017 like I said publicly and even
- 7:16legally but I was able to kind of like be in
- 7:24my own space and my own energy, kind of like
- 7:27for the first time in my life in that way, where
- 7:30there were like so many magical things that were
- 7:32happening in my life. I was living in a very
- 7:33magical city. So I don't, this is coming up.
- 7:43The city that I was living in at the time, I
- 7:45had left New York. I had moved to Brooklyn at
- 7:47that point. I mean, I'm sorry. I had left Brooklyn
- 7:49and I had moved to Detroit at that point. What
- 7:54I didn't know about Detroit at that point until
- 7:57I went for a walk one day because I had a house.
- 8:02Wow. Very similar to here in Brazil. Brazil,
- 8:06I have two apartments, one in the city, one in
- 8:09the country in Brazil. I'm so spoiled. And so
- 8:13in Detroit, I had a house and I had an apartment.
- 8:16I was working on the house. I was living in my
- 8:19apartment. I love my apartment. I love my house,
- 8:21too, but it wasn't livable. but i love the things
- 8:23that happened in the apartment so much this is
- 8:26so so juicy i hope somebody is catching all of
- 8:30this oh so i loved my apartment my apartment
- 8:36was across the street from an island i was by
- 8:39the water i didn't know anything about the city
- 8:41just like here i moved sight unseen didn't know
- 8:45anything about the place just went here i am
- 8:49bought the house online whatever Very much like
- 8:55here in Brazil. So all of this is, I hadn't pieced
- 8:59all of this together, but I'm piecing all of
- 9:01this together right now. So I went for a walk
- 9:07one day shortly after I moved there. And along
- 9:13the boardwalk in Detroit, there are little historical
- 9:18markers or whatever. One of the historical markers
- 9:21called, oh, this is so beautiful. One of the
- 9:26historical markers was called, was about Detroit
- 9:30and the history of enslavement, right? Black
- 9:35people and freedom. And Detroit is also known
- 9:39as the gateway to freedom. I never heard that.
- 9:42I didn't know that the history of Detroit had
- 9:47anything to do with like all of that or whatever,
- 9:52right? So I read the marker, then I went and
- 9:56did some more research. The reason why it was
- 9:59known as the gateway to freedom, it was Detroit
- 10:03is part of the Underground Railroad. Not a lot
- 10:05of people are aware of that. I'm sorry. Things
- 10:14are coming to me right now. I'm thinking about
- 10:16my friend in Canada right now. Somehow this has
- 10:18something to do with her. I don't know what yet,
- 10:20but I'm going to find out. What time is it? Anywho,
- 10:25so basically, Black people in America, I need
- 10:39to interrupt myself for right now. Because this
- 10:42has something to do with Brazil. The question
- 10:53would be, what would be or is going to be the
- 10:58gateway to freedom for Brazilians? I don't know.
- 11:10This is something I'm going to have to sit on
- 11:12for the rest of the day. Either way, back to
- 11:29Detroit. The reason that it was known as, the
- 11:33reason why Black people moved from the South,
- 11:41something is about to happen worldwide. I don't
- 11:44know what. But somehow it's tied into like even
- 11:49the Rona, right? When the world shut down in
- 11:552020 because of the thing. Back to Detroit. There's
- 12:06an island that sits between a part of Detroit
- 12:09and Canada. And Black people would travel to
- 12:13Detroit, but it's the smallest riverway distance
- 12:18from... Detroit, part of the United States, to
- 12:23the island to get to Canada. Or some people had
- 12:29allies that would help them get on the steamboat
- 12:37and get to Canada to, quote unquote, freedom.
- 12:43I pause at the allies part because one of the
- 12:46things that I wanted to talk about when I came
- 12:47back on here is the fact that And I've said it
- 12:52before, but I need to emphasize it again because
- 12:54something happened last night when I was having
- 12:56dinner with a friend. I've said before that a
- 12:59lot of times we get wrapped up in the fact that
- 13:02our allies don't look like us. Right. My allies,
- 13:09my greatest supporters, my greatest fighters
- 13:11don't look like me, meaning they are not black
- 13:15women. They are white women. So last night, something
- 13:18interesting happened where. a friend of mine
- 13:22who happens to be white grabbed my phone and
- 13:27did something with my phone or whatever. What
- 13:29she did with it doesn't matter. I didn't really
- 13:31think of it. I just kind of laughed when it happened
- 13:33last night. But when I got up this morning and
- 13:35I was in the bathroom, I had to start laughing
- 13:38out loud because I was like, damn, she's bossy.
- 13:41I was just like, she's so damn bossy. So she
- 13:44sent me a message this morning. And so I had
- 13:45to laugh and tell her how bossy she is. And so
- 13:48she's very... And I had to laugh because sometimes
- 13:57I have to see certain traits in other people
- 14:01to be able to see that in what people say about
- 14:04me or whatever, right? Because when I'm going
- 14:06about my life and I'm doing my thing, I don't
- 14:09think of myself as fearless. I don't think of
- 14:11myself as bossy. I don't think of myself as stubborn
- 14:14or whatever until like the reflection, the mirror
- 14:17shows up. If you're watching this, I need for
- 14:21you to understand I'm sharing my stories so that
- 14:24some of you can resonate and see the similarities
- 14:27that may be unfolding in your life right now.
- 14:31So she and I laughed about that. Then she shared
- 14:35something with me and I was like, yo, thank you
- 14:37so much for the confirmation about what I'm getting
- 14:40ready to talk about because I got these downloads
- 14:42this morning and I'm getting ready to do some
- 14:45videos to talk about it. So what she shared with
- 14:48me was basically in alignment energetically to
- 14:52what has happened and been happening to me and
- 14:55putting pieces together. And that's the other
- 14:56part. A lot of times we don't communicate with
- 14:59enough diverse people to get the pieces of the
- 15:01puzzle. If you know me, you've done work with
- 15:03me, you had a reading with me, you've been on
- 15:06the porch, you know, the peer -to -peer support
- 15:09group, you know that I often talk about spiritual
- 15:14collaboration and how important that is because
- 15:17Not one person is given all the information.
- 15:20God does not give one person all the answers
- 15:23because God knows that human beings are easily
- 15:27corruptible and they will abuse their power.
- 15:29They may think that they're in power, but if
- 15:31they're not collaborating with other people that
- 15:34are kind of on their energetic level or tapped
- 15:36in or in the same alignment, whatever that may
- 15:39be, they're not getting the full picture. And
- 15:43then they can't really help their people, right?
- 15:48And for those of you watching this, be careful
- 15:51who you're listening to as like the definitive
- 15:54answer if they're not learning from other people.
- 15:57Back to allies. We're going to use the word allies
- 16:02or whatever, right? So the two bravest women
- 16:06that I know in my life don't look anything like
- 16:11me. And they're white and they're women. My mother
- 16:18is very brave. I didn't add her to the two, but...
- 16:23She doesn't look the way that someone would think.
- 16:27And she ended up in rural America being a city
- 16:32girl and being in that environment showed her
- 16:36just how strong and resilient she is, but she
- 16:39didn't know that she was. But she had to be put
- 16:42in what initially looked like an uncomfortable
- 16:45scenario or situation to find out her true power
- 16:49and then to be able to basically kind of like,
- 16:53I guess you can say, take the throne of the matriarch
- 16:56of the family, right? It wasn't just handed to
- 17:01her by depot. Like she had to earn that shit,
- 17:03right? And I don't mean earn in a way, but to
- 17:07be able to maintain it and secure it for the
- 17:12legacy for generation after generation after
- 17:14generation so that many people have a safe place
- 17:21to land and go back to. Many of you are following,
- 17:26listening to people who have not established
- 17:30some land or legacy or safe spaces for your people
- 17:34because you're not diversifying your portfolio.
- 17:40And I don't mean that in any matrix corporate
- 17:43America kind of way or whatever. What I'm saying
- 17:47right now, it feels like it's important right
- 17:50now because when I look back onto what happened
- 17:56in 2017, 2018 through 2024 or whatever, Like
- 18:02I had some of the most intense, intimate battles
- 18:09with one particular person in my family that
- 18:13I never would have imagined or whatever, right?
- 18:16And when the smoke cleared, it was just like,
- 18:19oh my God, it's like peace. So some of you may
- 18:21be experiencing like a big fallout or some chaos,
- 18:24or you feel like something's falling apart. But
- 18:26those years, I call it the compound, our family
- 18:29land. Those years on our compound, our family
- 18:33land, were some of the most liberating, fun,
- 18:40wild, carefree. It was just everything my soul
- 18:47desired and I still desire. Like I was just able
- 18:52to just be wild, run around barefoot, brawlers,
- 18:57dirty, tinker, play with things or whatever.
- 19:00Right. It taught me resilience and I didn't have
- 19:05a lot of money, but I was able to like take things
- 19:07and make things and make money off of make money,
- 19:10make something out of nothing or whatever. Right.
- 19:14It also taught me not to be dependent on things
- 19:18and people. So that way, if someone took something
- 19:21away from me, I wasn't dependent on them to survive.
- 19:28Meaning when they said jump, I had to jump. I
- 19:32had to jump. It's making me think of that. It's
- 19:36making me think of that Eddie Murphy movie. I
- 19:38can't remember or whatever, but you know, the
- 19:42scene where he says jump and was that coming
- 19:45to America? I think that was, yo, another symbolism
- 19:48here coming to America, the movie coming to America
- 19:51where he's like, jump, hop on one foot or whatever.
- 19:53And she jumps and she hops on one foot. And some
- 19:55people will be thinking like, if I do this for
- 19:58this person, if I do everything that they tell
- 20:01me. I'm actually going to change the title of
- 20:04this and I'm going to label this coming to America.
- 20:08But some people think that if I do all of this
- 20:11and I jump through these hoops, this person is
- 20:13going to love me and they're going to want me
- 20:15because I'm being obedient to what it is that
- 20:18they're telling me to do. And it's not really
- 20:25a lot of people that they might tolerate that
- 20:28for a little bit, but that's not that like deep
- 20:31soul satisfying love connection that. thing like
- 20:37that ride or die energy, right? So some of you
- 20:41watching or listening to this may be the one
- 20:44that's telling someone to jump, or you may be
- 20:47the one that's jumping for someone and can't
- 20:50figure out why they're not loving on you or respecting
- 20:57you or treating you the way that you expect while
- 21:01you're doing everything that you think they want
- 21:06or need. I have a saying. I give people what
- 21:09they need, not what they want. That doesn't.
- 21:13And because I'm like that, I don't always keep
- 21:16friends or lovers or whatever. Right. And I feel
- 21:20like a true teacher or true healer gives people
- 21:23what they need, not what they want. Even at the
- 21:27risk of them leaving your life, being mad at
- 21:30you, trying to attack you or whatever. Doesn't
- 21:32matter. My job is done. Let me get my blessings
- 21:35and move on. So back to. the people the the the
- 21:48bravest women that i know right now in my life
- 21:51personally are two white women and how i would
- 21:57have overlooked how i would have not been able
- 22:00to experience them in all of their essence and
- 22:04craziness and wildness the wild thorn berries
- 22:09if i had just said oh only this type of person
- 22:16can be strong and brave and amazing and wild
- 22:22and whatever. Some of you right now are being
- 22:29shown certain sides of people that don't look
- 22:37or fit the aesthetic. They don't fit the mold
- 22:45of what you have been told to believe. is someone
- 22:50of a certain status or power or fearlessness
- 22:54or whatever. I'm going to keep this one short.
- 23:05So my advice and suggestion would be don't miss
- 23:11out on some opportunities for growth or abundance
- 23:16or whatever because it doesn't look like what
- 23:22you expected. So back to pulling the plug. During
- 23:29that time when I was in rural America on the
- 23:31compound, on the family land or whatever, rona
- 23:36happened and the plug was pulled on a lot of
- 23:42people's lives financially you know not being
- 23:45able to move around the country neighborhood
- 23:47homes or whatever the way that they had done
- 23:50before and it sent a lot of people into like
- 23:53mental meltdown um a lot of people were a lot
- 24:01of people at that time were in situations and
- 24:06living situations with people that they didn't
- 24:09truly like or love or respect people were in
- 24:14situations where they were not loved were not
- 24:17respected but it was okay because yo this is
- 24:22deep but a lot of people ignored it and didn't
- 24:26do what they needed to do for themselves to move
- 24:29themselves out of a situation that was comfortable
- 24:33at the time because of fear because of laziness
- 24:37or whatever different reasons but they knew that
- 24:39they needed to learn how to stand on their own
- 24:41two feet they still didn't do it so then when
- 24:44the lockdown happened people found themselves
- 24:47in toxic environments that they couldn't escape
- 24:53from and domestic violence and increased like
- 25:00so many different unfortunate things happened
- 25:02when the lockdown happened and people had not
- 25:06moved themselves out of environments where they
- 25:09couldn't move right so when i was snatched from
- 25:11brooklyn thrown into detroit then on from detroit
- 25:16to phoenix and then phoenix to the family land
- 25:19and rural america or whatever i was angry i was
- 25:23devastated i was pissed off i was upset turns
- 25:26out it was the best protection for me i'm a free
- 25:30spirit i would have lost my mind If I had to
- 25:33have been locked in an apartment in Brooklyn
- 25:35during the lockdown, I would not have survived.
- 25:38So the universe, God, my ancestors snatched me
- 25:41out of that environment and was like, you get
- 25:44to be in the middle of nowhere, unbothered. The
- 25:48best time of my life. I tell you the best. It
- 25:52was like being an adult child all over again.
- 25:54I was free. Yo, I'm thinking of my friend Antoine.
- 25:57I'm going to have to call him Antoine. and so
- 26:00antoine is the brother that i told some of y
- 26:02'all about where he knocked on my door he's an
- 26:06american but he lives in colombia he because
- 26:08of the earthquake in colombia he came to brazil
- 26:11and we met and hooked up and got to know each
- 26:14other not hooked up but whatever became friends
- 26:17got to know each other whatever and i interviewed
- 26:19him but in the interview he talks about i think
- 26:22he talks about this in the interview but he talks
- 26:24about where he was during the lockdown And he
- 26:27was like, he ended up being in the countryside,
- 26:30either in Mexico or Colombia in the middle of
- 26:33nowhere. And he was like, that was like the best
- 26:35time of his life, right? Just in the country,
- 26:40just doing nothing while everybody else is locked
- 26:43in tight spaces or whatever. Now this is making
- 26:47me think about someone else that lives in the
- 26:52building with me, an American. One of the recent
- 26:59conversations we had had to do with solitude
- 27:02and going out in nature or whatever. And that
- 27:06is one of his goals when he returns back to Brazil.
- 27:10And I gave him a nickname that's very similar
- 27:13to a hashtag that I used to always use, which
- 27:16was stay dirty. And I say stay dirty because
- 27:19I meant like stay. It's like a double entendre,
- 27:23right? Like a play on words. me being able to
- 27:27play in the dirt and things like that was like
- 27:29so healing and I always like look at the movie
- 27:31Wakanda that everybody loved they buried them
- 27:35in the dirt to read for rebirth and renewal and
- 27:41anyway so I'm thinking about the two American
- 27:45men I have them in my notes that I'm gonna talk
- 27:48about later on but I'm so grateful for them showing
- 27:52up at my door literally when they showed up at
- 27:56the time that they showed up here for me in Brazil
- 27:58literally the universe brought me protection
- 28:02brought me reminder of that energy and when I
- 28:06say that energy like I'm not going to get into
- 28:09it too much maybe later or maybe in a private
- 28:12video about the energy of like American Black
- 28:15men how I can spot them on the street and it's
- 28:18not the way they dress or anything but there's
- 28:20an energy about them that I'll get into at another
- 28:22point anywho With all of that being said, I feel
- 28:30as if, and I don't know if it's going to happen
- 28:33or if it's happening right now in a way that's
- 28:39identical to another lockdown or if this is more
- 28:44energetically. My spirit is telling me that it
- 28:56feels more like it is going to be something physical,
- 29:00like global or whatever. another lockdown or
- 29:04something like that or whatever where people
- 29:05are really going to start travel movement freedom
- 29:12is going to be limited how that's going to show
- 29:15up let's i was going to say let's hope that that
- 29:24doesn't happen but everything i mean fate is
- 29:27going to be fake or whatever right either way
- 29:30if you're experiencing this energy of feeling
- 29:34like you're being confined you're you're being
- 29:38locked down Or whatever. Or it's getting more
- 29:42uncomfortable for you to be in a space that you're
- 29:45in with people that you are not comfortable with
- 29:47or you don't feel like. If you're in a space
- 29:50right now with people that you wouldn't want
- 29:53to be in lockdown with, fucking move. Do whatever
- 29:57the fuck you need to do to move. Take the opportunity
- 30:03to quote unquote move out of a situation. That
- 30:08you may be in right now or getting ready to move
- 30:11in and you do not want to be locked down within
- 30:16people. If you were in a scenario or a situation
- 30:19right now where you wouldn't want to be locked
- 30:23in an environment with someone or people for
- 30:28a month straight, a week straight, get out. Go
- 30:37somewhere else. There's an opportunity in front
- 30:40of you that you have not taken, you avoided or
- 30:42something. I don't know why the worm might be
- 30:52relevant. Earthworm, earthworm regeneration is
- 30:58relevant. Earth is a big thing right now. All
- 31:07I know is if there's another lockdown coming,
- 31:12however that might look, I know where I want
- 31:14to be. I know who I want to be around. I'm very
- 31:17clear on that, right? And back to pulling the
- 31:24plug. So I had to laugh when I actually wrote
- 31:27it down because if you know what the plug is,
- 31:29you know what the plug is. But I'm thinking like
- 31:31the plug in the sink and you pull the plug and
- 31:33the water goes down or like someone wipes you,
- 31:36swipes you off your feet. I can put it that way,
- 31:39right? Like something unexpected happens where
- 31:44something is being dangled in front of you or
- 31:47you're being pacified or the community or collective
- 31:52or people. being pacified and becoming dependent
- 32:00on something or someone so that way the power
- 32:06that has caused dependency is planning on pulling
- 32:10the plug or may have already pulled the plug
- 32:13and if you are currently experiencing that where
- 32:17you feel like you might be a victim to what has
- 32:25happened You can look at it a couple of ways.
- 32:29You can look at it as preparation for something
- 32:31that's about to happen. Or you can look at it
- 32:35as a lesson learned. That's all I have for that
- 32:41one.
