    What if the “demons” you glimpse in the corner of your eye are just repetitive attack thoughts asking to be seen? This conversation travels from a quiet lakeside room to the most charged places in the heart, showing how relationships mirror our unwatched mind and how real peace arrives when we stop trying to fix people and start listening for guidance. We unpack masculine–feminine dynamics, the hooks that appear in close intimacy, and the subtle ways neediness turns love into a transaction.

    Through stories of a lava evacuation, near-violence diffused by presence, and the courageous choice to end a decades-long marriage, we explore the practice of staying in the eye of the storm. Apparitions, archons, and “dark spirits” become metaphors for looping thoughts; when we look at them without fear, they dissolve. From there, we pivot into daily frictions—trash in the car, a partner’s low mood, family gossip—and use them as micro-trainings for forgiveness that collapses time rather than circles it endlessly.

    We also redefine holy relationship as a shared purpose, not a romantic label. A mighty companion meets you in innocence, asks “How can I help?” and joins you in remembering the truth when ego stories bite. That shift loosens sentimental attachment, frees us from productivity myths, and opens space for inspired action that feels anointed—whether that’s a hard conversation, a gentle exit, or a joyful hug. If you’ve ever felt trapped by patterns, haunted by thoughts, or torn between comfort and depth, this talk offers clear, practical mind training to move from transaction to truth.

    If this resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs it, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway. Then tell us: what pattern are you ready to release next?

  • Sane Perception, Real Freedom | A Course in Miracles Deep Dive | Lake Whatcom, WA | December 21, 2025

    What if the simplest habit—assigning yourself a daily study period—could collapse years of recurring patterns? We dive into Chapter 3 of A Course in Miracles, “Sane Perception,” and explore how attention, curiosity, and willingness retrain the mind at the level where problems begin. Instead of polishing behavior or trading spiritual jargon, we lean into experience: noticing contraction in the body, asking “What is this for?” and letting guidance reframe the moment. The result is a practical approach to healing that you can use right away, even for the messy, very human situations that most of us would rather avoid.

    We get candid about charged encounters and the freeze response, and how clarity—not control—creates authentic communication and clean boundaries. You’ll hear why “good students assign study periods,” how even one minute of practice can outweigh hours of conditioning, and why the Course works best when treated as mind training rather than philosophy. We also examine sensation chasing—doomscrolling and internal arguments—and show how to turn those spirals into live study periods that restore neutrality and choice.

    Another key shift: reinterpreting limitation as a call for love. We revisit a dated term from the 1960s text to reveal a timeless principle—any defense can be repurposed for truth. Nothing the ego made is beyond the Holy Spirit’s use. When you stop consulting the same mind that made the confusion and start asking for help, many “unsolved” problems reveal themselves as already answered. Readiness is the real threshold: are you willing to be taught, to schedule your practice, and to let meaning be given rather than manufactured?

    If this resonates, subscribe, share with someone who needs a gentle nudge toward sanity, and leave a review to help others find the show. Your reflections keep this community vibrant—what will you schedule for your next study period?

  • If Nothing Here Is Real, What Makes You Whole? | Wisdom Dialogues @ Bellingham Washington | December 14, 2025

    Start with still water, end with laughter. Across two rich hours, we question what productivity even means and swap the hustle for miracle-mindedness: seeing thoughts arise, letting feelings be felt, and choosing the peace of God right now. I share how supply shows up when we stop gripping, why “you need do nothing” isn’t avoidance, and how trust quietly multiplies our loaves and fishes when the mind releases plans and panic.

    We wander, honestly, through the terrain of desire, romance, and boundaries. I talk through a messy dynamic—neediness, pullback, fantasy—and how labeling people cements pain. Clean boundaries don’t punish; they simply stop feeding a pattern that doesn’t reflect truth. Regret gets a gentle audit, too: it isn’t caused by what happened last week; it’s an ancient echo asking to be seen and released. Keep the regret and you repeat it. Forgive it and you turn the page.

    We also unpack sex, fantasy, and sensation with candor. Fantasy is a substitute for joining; it dulls presence and complicates love. Pleasure deepens when it’s an expression, not a bargaining chip. The same clarity heals the body story: symptoms lose their “cause” when we drop fear narratives and rest in causeless peace. And when harm seems to happen, we name it out loud, refuse secrecy, and then look with Christ’s vision so only love remains. That’s the practice threaded through everything: watch the mind without fear, forgive what never truly occurred, and let laughter end the world’s spell.

    If this resonates, subscribe, share with a friend who’s ready to need less and feel more, and leave a review telling us which belief about love or lack you’re questioning today.
