my guest today is kim chesney kim welcome to the true secret podcast my friend how are you um i'm great i'm so happy to be here thanks for having me awesome awesome so we're going to be talking about following following your intuition and and what that looks like and uh especially in a world and i'm going back and reading your bio you know it's just fitting for today like you know everybody wants you to follow a narrative or a story or a truth even follow my truth i have found the truth follow me and everybody wants our attention and wants us to follow them we're trying to get followers on social media but uh but we can follow our intuition and you wrote a book about that and that's just your whole dig and so let's get into it a little bit but first before we get started just kind of give everybody an overview who don't know who you are what you bring to the table just kind of say hello that kind of thing yeah yeah hi everybody um yeah like i said i'm so happy to be here thank you for including me in this really cool message that you put out um and the intuition is so deeply a part of all of the mystical process but also part of the practical process of everyday life so it's really been my life's mission to understand intuition and this inner wisdom and this inner guidance that drives all of us i wrote a book just came out ironically on election day uh or maybe not ironically maybe actually uh very meaningfully on election day that really focuses on this idea of radical intuition which is this radical turning to ourselves over the world and really making that shift to honor that truth within us instead of all of this nonsense and chaos and craziness that's fighting for the attention around us um now what about for all the chaos and the stuff around us like i'm sure if you talk to those people they would tell you that yes they follow their intuition and their truth and it has led them to what we call chaos and confusion you know but they say that they're on their life's purpose and pass and all path and all that kind of stuff yeah you know and for for a long time that thought kept me up at night because you know that really is a reality that we're dealing with right now i mean but behind all that the truth is singular we there is all a singular truth and love that exists above and beyond all of our different individual perceptions of reality and our different places on our path um and and though we all are following our truth in our own way first of all some people may be confusing what their truth is for something else so there's that in some people in other people we have to realize that you know we are all in different places on our journey so there is room for different perspectives there is room for um to accept each other for having different ideas and being in different places you know to an extent you know not to the kind of extent that we saw yesterday but to an extent right so so we have to have that sense of appreciation because uh the path to truth isn't linear it's sort of it's more circular you know we're all coming at it from different directions really it doesn't matter how we get there as long as we ultimately end up in that same place and you say that that's that that love acceptance joy bliss and all of that right what does that look like um you know for someone to follow their intuition what i mean what does it look like is it just like is it following your imagination is it following that that inner gut voice that you know the inner dialogue that we have with ourselves and all the great philosophers and everyone who has that inner dialogue and communing with it some people would call it god some people would call it the holy spirit and those kind of things is it all the same thing yeah it's all of that and those are the you just summarize so many different aspects of intuition and impranza yogananda really really summed it all up when he said that intuition is the soul's power of knowing god so whatever word used for god whether it's the universe or source or whatever intuition is our connection to that it is our connection to all that is above and beyond and higher whether it's insight whether it's inspiration or creativity or knowledge or wisdom our intuition is this direct connection that our mind can't get there we can't get there by thinking and rationalizing our way there we'll never get there that way the only way that we can truly have those experiences is to turn into that sacred place of intuition now how did all this get started for you like how did you know that this was something and it became real and started revealing itself to you and then you go a little bit deeper down and deeper down and know those kind of things like how did this start for you yeah and you know i think i've i think you know first of all i just want to practice saying everybody has intuition everybody in the world has intermission we all just have different ways of getting to know it and for me from a very young age i think i had a calling to do this work i was always very much aligned with psychic experiences as a child and i'm very creative i'm an artist so i think i was just very naturally open and very intuitive to begin with and and from that grew this curiosity and this um really mission to understand it because i grew up in a family that was was not really intuitive supportive you know they were very much uh you know like you have to go to school and you have to be smart and responsible and all that stuff which is wonderful but there's this other side of our minds this creative intuitive side of our minds that really has ability to experience different dimensions of life that people might say aren't real but once you've experienced them you know they're real and i think you know i you know i know enough about your work to know that you know they're real and once you have those kind of experiences what you have to do is understand them you have to make sense of them in a very real way so at a young age i i really started to become really interested in learning about how this sort of mystical processes work how they applied to life in a very no-nonsense way you know i didn't i was tired of being marginalized as is something you know occult or weird or spooky or scary and really understanding that it's that's something that we all have and it's part of our lives and it's not something to be afraid of yeah yeah that's huge i mean again you use that word occult like a lot of people come at me and say hey man what do you mean when you talk about the occult and the things that's like it's just that which is hidden and because it's hidden within the darkness as far as you haven't encountered it yet yes your intuition yes your deep mystical relationship with yourself and with god and with all creations it is a cult because it is hidden from you right now you don't understand it but it's not scary it's not evil it's not taboo but it's just because it's hidden from you so all of these things are in occult until we bring them to the light and talk about them openly be until they become second nature which they already are we just don't know it right right and now is that time and that's that's why i really feel like this this idea i talk about this thing called the intuition revolution in terms of radical intuition is now is really this time where we're seeing the world um bringing that those hidden things that darkness into light even through things like quantum physics that you can see that all of these things that were like scary and they blamed on like demons and stuff in the past we realized now no that's actually just a different way of experiencing reality through quantum realities as opposed to what we can see in linear newtonian physics so all of the stuff is going to come out it's just hidden because we don't understand it you know this mysterious intuitive side of our being which is really just a compliment to our intellect just it's just the yin and the young the intellect and the intuition it's two different ways we have two sides of our brains we have two different ways of knowing the world knowing ourselves and we've spent our whole life our centuries developing one side of our brains and there's this other side that's just waiting here and is so full of potential and richness and deepness that that we need right now as a world to come together and and to be one and to experience things beyond these different divisive perspectives so now is the time for this light to happen and it's happening and we're seeing it we just got to feed this momentum yeah now what happens when you start what we can call saying yes to this process what like what starts happening for an individual and how does it happen as well yeah so the more that you pay attention to your intuition which is really just your inner guidance systems those little nudges those insights any information ideas anything that comes from within out of nowhere right it's not it's not a result of your conditioning people ask you know what you know what does intuition look like well it's it's something that's pure truth inside you it's not from how you're raised or what country you live in or any of that stuff it's that pure truth within you so it comes out of nowhere it comes without reason so when you start to pay attention to that and honor that and and practice accepting that i call creating a practice of insightfulness you know we talk a lot about mindfulness but we want to embrace insightfulness too let's listen to that in your voice let's listen to those nudges and that wisdom that comes from inside us when we start living insightfully the more that we do that the stronger it grows in the beginning you know we might hear these little nudges we've all had those little calling cards of intuition where you've thought of someone just as they sent you a message or called you on the phone like we've had those moments of quote unquote serendipity or coincidence that really is tied into intuition and they're you know the list of those that kind of stuff goes on so it begins with those little calling cards but as you start to you know honor them and look for them more and open to them and really set your intention on knowing yourself extraordinary things can happen and i think you know what i'm talking about whether it's simply just you know feeling a deeper connectedness to yourself and knowing your purpose and what you are to to really having higher experiences of reality and understanding new dimensions of reality with our senses with our being in in many many different ways and how do we go go deeper into that you mentioned you know getting a practice it was kind of funny we taught you and you mentioned serendipity and we like to use the word synchronicity just as you was writing down finding a practice i'm writing down a question spiritual practice like at the same time and it's those it's those little things that i love and it for me it's bread crumbs from the creator of the universe saying hey you're on the right path you know so are are there like different techniques uh you know i'm saying prayer meditation reading mindfulness like are there different things that that helps us to kind of kick-start that or to go deeper into it or facilitate more within our lives yeah yeah and i i give in the book i give a lot of different practices that people can use but the first step i always tell people when they when they really want to you know reconnect and make that shift back within the first step is always to slow down uh to be still be quiet whether you meditate or just go for walks or you know enjoy a hot bath whatever you need to do just take time for yourself and be still because it's in those stillnesses that you can hear your intuition that's where your intuition speaks in the silence so so creating more silence creating more time with yourself that time with yourself is sacred we none of us get enough time well wait right now with kobo we might be having a little bit more time with ourselves so it's a good opportunity to to listen but really getting this time um to to just be with ourselves and listen and and and turn off all of the noise and definitely turn off our phones for a little bit and just let let our intuition come through and then once you start doing these things even creating some meditation practices just to start listening when you're in meditation like when i meditate i always have to keep a journal next to me because that's where my best ideas come so it doesn't when your meditation doesn't mean you just sit there and do nothing you can open have insight meditations where all this stuff starts blowing in and these ideas come to you so um so it starts with with this little this little uh process of re-attuning in the silence but then there's practices that you can do every day and and i go into really deeply in the book um but it's really just just a lifestyle of tuning in to the to your body to your mind into your heart and listening to how they're speaking to you instead of all of the the conditionings and the the ideas for the people and life around you yeah that's huge um for sure and in every area for sure it's really huge people things trying to get your attention and take your attention off of what really matters i think which is your you know your calling your bliss your purpose and tapping into the intuition and being led by that inner guidance that enter gps uh is what leads you to that um i think in scans uh in scandinavian language they call the gut feeling the gut feeling following your gut it's called the god feeling following that god instinct so scandinavians the word for for gut for god and and it's really interesting to follow your gut it's just that that first thing that yes or no and usually you can feel it right um so as far as like following your bliss and and and stepping into your destiny um for us we you know we talk about prayer meditation and all of these breath work there's so much stuff that we can just keep adding to that you know writing a journal and and i think for a lot of people who are hearing this stuff and and they can activate it like they could there's things that they can do to kind of turn it on and um but but at the same time you said it's very practical it is we love to add the stuff into it but it is very practical at the same time i think all of our spirituality should be if it's real right um so what about for the people who have kind of already stepped into this without knowing it or knowing any you know they're not doing any any any meditation they're not doing anything to kind of cultivate or activate it but they're just already living in that versus the people who have to consciously turn it on because there's definitely those those two types of people out there right they might not be spiritual at all but they're already tapped into their intuition maybe that makes them spiritual right right right and i think artists are a great example of that because you know creativity and you know whether you're creating music or like i'm an artist i'm an oil painter so even back before i was you know consciously awakened to this kind of stuff i was using my intuition very passionately very um you know it would just it was something that i sort of needed to do you know that the way that artists feel that calling to create that's sort of the place that i was in so so even if you're not actually a spiritual person or someone who's come to that point where you have made that commitment it can naturally be working through because that's what it's just wired within us we don't have to like subscribe to any particular thing you know no matter who you are it's still working in your own unique way and in the book i talk about how you know there's all these different pathways of intuition and you touched on it earlier when you talked about the you know is it a feeling is it a knowing is it uh you know is it a creative idea there's all these different ways that intuition comes to us and we all have our own unique blend so really it's about becoming aware and conscious of our own unique blend and then how to level that up how to open it up how to amp it up and really let these do these magical things for us that it wants to do because it wants to tell us that everything that we need to know it wants us to take our best path it wants us to fulfill our destiny so we just have to learn to listen um so what's the difference because when you use the word radical i come from the you know the church church culture and stuff in the in my past and they you have you have regular christians and then you have radical christians and they were just kind of like above and beyond and they were extra if you will you know so when we're talking about someone following their their intuition but what is following your intuition radically well this is like this kind of intuition is extra because it's it's it's not just looking at the wu side of intuition so so you know the way i understand it we've been going through this sort of process of intuitive awakening in our culture over the last 50 to 100 years where intuition's been growing in momentum so the first early adopters were the wu community the spiritual community started to say hey you don't have to be born a psychic with magical powers this is something we can all do right because back in the old days it was like you know you got your crystal ball and you were just some person who was born with magical powers but now we're like okay no we can learn this this is this is a trait this is a quality that can be developed like any other talent so you're starting to to make that normal like normalize this idea of developing our intuition has been growing and growing um in recent decades so now we're getting to a point like my background's in technology i work for 20 years in technology i've worked with some of the biggest tech companies on this planet so about 10 years ago i started hearing people use the word intuition they start talking about how important intuition is when building new products or innovating or or really opening up um to really new ways of improving the world so i started to realize that there was this connection that was happening on an interior level with the exterior so intuition isn't just about knowing it and recognizing it it's also about living it right and when we live our intuition we can change the world and that's what this book is about this is about taking our intuition learning to recognize it and using it to change the world to change our lives to to stop living in the state of unconsciousness to wake up and really be who we are authentically and stand for that so there's a radical component to it that does tie into the things that we're going through right now in this world because it's so important that we do that now it's so important that we live our truth and that we're not carried away by other people's ideals and that we stand for it we have the courage to recognize it and know that it's real so that we have the strength to stand by it yeah that's deep i think like uh you know the majority of leaders and and people you know especially with religion they're trying to make like copies of themselves and trying to get you to ascribe to a certain belief system in a certain doctrine or something like that when i think a true leader will have you be able to to to follow your own bliss and and where it's leading you and and when you see that structure there's always like a a ceiling like you can't go above and beyond and that person wants to keep you down under them and always come in feeding off of them versus someone who is teaching you to follow your intuition to hear the voice of god or whatever you want to call it and and i think those are the the true leaders that we need so that's why i think that this work is really needed right now you know and so um people can follow their own bliss their own inner gps system and they may come and they may go that's an interesting thing with trying to get followers is the fact that someone may come and eat from your table for six weeks six days it doesn't matter and then they get what they need and go versus like trying to keep people a part of your community or your tribe or something like that right there's a big difference there can i just say how much i love what you're saying right now i i love what you're saying on so many levels because you know one of the things i always talk about is all of the teachers that we have in our life are just teachers there to to to guide us back to ourselves right that's their purpose so you might have a series of really trusted teachers in your life that have inspired you but ultimately those teachers are the teachers that led you to yourself which is the real teacher within you and the fact that you said that you know people come and go yeah when they go you can know if when they if they go happy you've done your job you've taken them home to themselves right you know and that's what we want to do as teachers yeah yeah you got a problem if they all leave mad really mad well then that's something else but but um so you know we're kind of giving overviews on this stuff and we're kind of just like you know i'm saying generalizing meditation and breath work and kind of those things to go deeper into it but just saying yes and continuing to follow it but in the book you talk about these practical steps that you can take can you go through some of the first steps for people who are like you know they it's that you know they don't know anything about this stuff that we're talking about i think the majority do but for those who are just like brand new to this stuff which there's a lot of people there too so some of those practical steps that they can do it in in the beginning stages of saying yes yeah absolutely because those are the most important steps and i can tell you a few things right now and if you guys want to check out on my on my website if you go to my website kimchi.com i have a free wake up your intuition guide it's 12 pages it'll go over some of the stuff i'm about to say in deeper detail if you want to just give it a read and really sit with it um because there are some real things that you can do to really start to wake up your intuition or activate your intuition because most of us have just been using our intuition intuitively our whole life it's been there it comes and goes but we don't really have any conscious awareness of it or control of it or access to it intentionally so but the more you use it and the more you connect with it the more those things start to happen so like i kind of started to touch on earlier the first step really the very first step no matter where you are in your journey whether you're reconnecting or whether you're starting up is is to slow down and get into that white space so you know i would say you know create more white space on your calendar create time every day alone with yourself even you know if you're a busy parent even if it's half hour in the bathroom just pretend close the door and pretend you're in there and don't let anybody bother you if but whatever you can do is so valuable a little bit more than you have today is all you need is really that time to get into that space and breathe and relax and let go and and really allow yourself to release your attachment to the that hamster wheel of thinking you know if you haven't read any work by eckhart tolle uh the power now is really a wonderful tool to start releasing the mind because you know he talks a lot about the state of no mind and it's the state of no mind where we receive our intuition right so we have to turn off that toxic thinking that that overactive mind the mind that won't shut up that kind of the monkey mind whatever the word you use for it you have to learn to turn that off quiet it down that's the first thing to do because your intuition's here it's always here ready to go but it can't get through all this noise of your mind and processing information so so turning that off meditating you know going into the stillness listen to music music's a great way to just turn off the mind and just experience the moment so getting into that moment and then and then starting to open in that moment and there's a series of um different meditations you can do to just open up i have a great free meditation from bonte pima ratana which is a buddhist monk who gives us an insight meditation where we can just open up to our intuition for an hour and that's just a wonderful way to just just to start letting these ideas and these intuitive impressions flow through us and then and then recording them one of the things i i always recommend to people when they're starting up is to get a new journal called an insight journal god wink journal whatever you want to name it a journal to record all of the little intuitive moments and like like we just had a minute ago when you're writing something down and someone says something to you at the same time or all those little moments of synchronicity those are very powerful moments with intuition and the more that you you connect with your intuition the more those moments will become real and increase and in the old days when i first started out my journey that would happen once in a blue moon and to me it happens to me so many times every day you know i mean i know you can understand like it's just it's just a way of life yeah you know so you're in the flow right so you want to get into that flow and and those the journal is a wonderful way especially with intuition it's so important because a lot of things with intuition you don't validate until later and validation is a huge part of intuition i have a whole chapter on it in a book and what that means is um we have to learn to trust our intuition and if we don't get validations that our intuition is true and right and working for us we're not going to trust it enough to follow it and own it and make those big hard choices by it so so creating this journal of these little moments and these intuitive ideas uh that that you have so you can look back on them look back on them in a week in in a month in a year and see that you were on to something before you could have possibly been on school when you have those moments and those recognitions you get those validations like yes i was right right so creating an environment where you can really um start to trust your intuition working with i have a deck of insight cards that are great they're not like tarot cards but they they help you to develop your intuition you can practice with those every day and they get get those little validations and those little moments that allow you to build a relationship with your hiring yeah and so i know this is this is different but they're kind of linked together you talked about the psychic abilities and having those what we call premonitions or something like that or divine suddenlies where you kind of it's really eerie so you know the two kind of meet in the middle somewhere oh yeah like psychic ability is is a byproduct of of really our awakening i think that um it's very much tied into intuition and my first book the psychic workshop you know that came out about 14 years ago and you know it's people hear the word psychic and they get freaked out right like oh my gosh psychic but what really what we're just talking about again we're coming back to this ability to think in a quantum way we're thinking instead of linearly we're thinking in a quantum way or able to access information beyond time and space outside of our perimeter in this moment in time so i think eventually we're going to realize that there's nothing that weird about psychic stuff at all it's again just a part of of our nature and that we can we can use it as long as we open up to it and it's just a part of what we're meant to know so um so these moments these psychic moments when you have those premonitions or you have those dreams or you have those um knowingnesses that you get when when you have no way to know them um you know those are really powerful exclamation points from our intuition those are moments that gifts from our intuition revelations from our intuition to remind us that there's more to life than the the senses around us in this world we see um so when when you go deeper into that and it it just it gets weird it gets really weird like hold on who knew that i was thinking that so for me we call it god this intelligence like a creator something that knows what you're thinking and that you have a relationship with it and it not plays tricks on you but makes you laugh and catching and reminds you hey you're not alone and those kind of things like it's weird to go deeper into that because that's even a deeper level hey hold on like something is communicating with me is it my is it my higher self community you know we get to the bottom of that but it gets kind of strange when you're like hey nobody knows that i knew that except me and whoever or whatever is watching me and created me or something like that you had those moments because you know some of the stuff is just in passing oh that was cool with synchronicity synchronicities are cool but some of it at some point stops you in your tracks hold on what is happening and it's interactive this life this journey consciousness and it begins to uh get a lot more fun if you will if you had those that like epiphany like hold on and then you try to communicate with it you know what i'm saying and uh what is it god we call it god i think that's the easy word it's the all you know them it is consciousness collective consciousness to us tapping into it getting deeper and stuff like that but how how would you talk about that a little bit that that knowing like hey almost like the truman show truman show freaks out a lot of people because hey hold on something's watching me for me i'll call it god right it's just easy but um what about you like having that epiphany yeah and you know i've had those epiphanies the same kind of things you're talking about especially as a young person and it was scary as a young person because i didn't understand it and we didn't have the internet back then so i had to figure it out on my own go to read a lot of books and borders and stuff so um but the reality is when you have an awakening and the way i like to look at it is you know i think of it in terms of vibration um that you know when we start to wake up we raise our vibration we shift our vibration and when we shift our vibration through consciousness through waking up we're able to perceive other levels of vibration that we weren't when we were in a sort of unconscious state so when we're more unconscious a lot of us i talk in the book about excuse me the three levels of intuitive consciousness which is sort of unconsciousness consciousness and higher consciousness or super consciousness right so most of us spend our life in sort of this interplay between unconsciousness and consciousness like you know we're we're not like i don't mean to sleep unconscious but i mean unaware right we're not able to detect the subtleties of life we just kind of go about our day thinking about you know what we're gonna eat for dinner and watching tv right so that's a level of unconsciousness so when we start to wake up we realize okay there's more to life there's something else going on here there's something there's something more magical and wondrous in life than we realize so so then we start living in that place but then once you get to that place you've already shifted your energy your energy is higher and then suddenly you start to find yourself able to interact with these energies that are even higher in the super conscious place in this impossible place into this mystical place um and then you know and for everyone it's different when you get to that place but there are there's an intelligence in that place that i call my higher self which i like to look at it as the part of me that knows everything like i kind of look at like you know god's like everything everything and then there's me and my little ego consciousness right here that's like sitting here in my house in pittsburgh and then there's this part of me in between those things right which is where my intuition flows and this higher part of me that connects to that all-knowing god and truth and love and wisdom and bliss and joy and all that stuff that knows everything so when i pull a card out of a deck that part of me that knows everything knows exactly which card to pull out of that deck right so it's not like i need i don't have like an angel sitting on my shoulder like picking the card for me it's me i know that it's because i have access to there's a part of me that has access to everything and that's the part of me that knows what my friend's going to call two seconds before they call right but the part of me that knows that i can't trust that person i just met even though they seem really nice right that's tapping into that yeah i get that a lot right and that's how you you know you know you've got it you've got to trust that and because that's that's the best form of knowledge and it's so easy it's right there for us if we just listen it's weird because you know when you feel that that the intuition a level of discernment even about an individual um you can tell their motives you know and we are getting into the psychic stuff but just feeling you know dealing with your your intuition is is learning to feel and how you feel which is um you know we're talking about uh esp extra sensory perception you know being uh clara sentience being able clear sight clear seeing clear knowing and uh and that is that inner knowing an inner knowing is following your intuition it is uh you get good at it you get better at it um and it starts with small things but you get trusted with more is is very strange though because like when you pick up stuff and you kind of think that everybody gets it too you're like yeah i don't trust that person because you can feel anger coming off of him even though he looks the part he looks great but this guy is bitter he's he doesn't even believe what he's telling you he's making it up on the spot we can listen to people like that and we all automatically read it and pick it up oh no no no i'm not there's no way i'm going down a rabbit hole but then other people will listen to it i mean i guess the election is a good way that i wasn't talking about that but it definitely comes to where people follow it hook line and sinker and and they haven't you know worked on their discernment or something like that and they would follow uh the stuff that you get a clear red flag over what do you do with that do you tell people hey stay away from them i got a bad feeling or do you just let hey i'm kind of giving you to the sharks if i don't tell you like what do you think that we should do in in that because at the same time going back to the beginning there's people who would say that about the political system and they know deep down that i'm going to use trump as an example trump is a good guy they know deep down he's for the people but then somebody like me will say okay hey trump is one of them do not be fooled guys don't don't follow you know what i'm saying so there's just two different sides of it but we're both saying that we follow our intuition and discernment and we can read you know the scenarios and all that kind of stuff you know yeah and i've had some really deep conversations um over the past you know a couple of months about this because i think we're so polarized right now as a country and it's really hard to you know say okay how are half of us wrong and half of us write and how do we integrate intuition into this whole mess when you know we all should be really talking about the same thing underneath it all and i think that that's what the answer is truly is that you know it's not a black and white situation it's a very complex situation you know there are good things about trump you know even though there's really awful things about trump but every human being has some good things and you know the people that follow him they focus in on certain things those are not things that resonate with people like us who or i don't know what your political beliefs are but you know for people like me because that's not my path but there are people out there that that you know you know what is our role in it we have to we have to follow our own intuition to find out what that role is there might be a time when it says okay we have to let them figure this out on their own but then there might be a time where we have to stand up and say no you this can't happen you can't do this or you have to stay away from this person you can't participate in this right so that's where it comes to in a play-by-play moment we have to be so attuned to our intuition that we know when the time is right to you know to stand up and say you know this is a this is a do or die situation yeah it's huge and we got to be careful too with you know getting those feelings and those intuitions and and speaking them like their truth because you could be dead wrong and and just i don't know if you know much about this but there's this i'm still in some of the christian circles and stuff but there's this thing where all of the so-called new thought christian prophets they kind of say what they feel god is saying for this hour most of them i feel are making up stuff and just kind of going and some of them have tapped into their intuition and they're really good they can read your mail they know what you're going through and they can minister to that so some of them but when it comes to the political affiliation a lot of them got in trouble because they've all been saying god said that trump was going to do four more years and god says from heaven that trump will do eight years and we're gonna go into and they've like they made a lot of money off of these prophecies they wrote books on it they've preached it like like literally like it was god saying it and so now they're having to come out to and apologize for it so that is very commendable that they are doing this now hey we messed up we were wrong i'm sorry that we we missed it so shout out to those people who are saying that but you see what i'm saying like we have our own uh belief systems you know or our own narrative that we're reading into sharing this intuitive knowledge that we know from god or from from source or from deep meditation that is not right it was right to you and your scenario but as far as reality and the way things are you you were very very very wrong and all of us can do that so i think that's why we got to kind of be careful with pointing fingers or speaking that this is absolute in those kind of things right right and and to speak to that i mean you hear about this term having a god complex right so we hear about these people who go out and and it can happen and this is one of the things why it's so important to really recognize genuine intuition because a lot of things can can flow through us rage can flow through us anger can flow through us you know these feelings can can flow through us and people can mistake those for intuition so there's a lot of voices in our head there's a lot of feelings inside us and the trick is to know that true north of our intuition that is beyond feelings and beyond uh rational thoughts right so we can get carried away on a feeling we can get carried away on a feeling about trump and think we're preaching the truth but it's just a it's just um it's just a thumb of feeling you know what i mean there was um i was working at a job years ago and there was this lady uh in the church me and a buddy of mine we were working and we we went to waffle house for lunch or whatever and we go to waffle house and we're sitting across the table from this lady on a date with a dude and we know the lady we go to church with her we're close with actually working with our family member and she was on a date with another guy at this restaurant and we're like oh my god we're like kind of like freaking out oh my god you see this what's going on she's out here her husband's she's you know running around on her husband and doing all this stuff and we just knew deep down come to find out she had a twin it wasn't her it was her twin sister that was out on a date and we're like oh my god we feel it we know it we got to tell them we have to let them know you know and so like following the intuition we should have known even though they they told us that we kind of still felt like they made that up that she didn't have a twin they just didn't want to get you know be you know made of mockery or whatever and be known that mom was out running around you know even even though we're probably wrong there's still that level of pride there or we thought we were right kind of thing you know oh you're muted okay okay i'm sorry okay you're good you can unmute yourself go ahead i i muted myself to cough a second i didn't want to cough in the middle i was like i can't turn back on so yeah so that's so crazy though you know i i love all this conversation and and i i really appreciate you challenging these deep things because it's so it's such a really um unspoken about part of intuition where you really need to go into these these complex conversations because there's there is a lot of really valuable stuff here and we have to just get through it and push through it and bring more understanding and light to it and then it won't be just this like oh people can just write intuition off because it's so nebulous or because they don't understand it yeah it's uh it's okay to mess up it's okay to get it wrong you know what i'm saying and it's okay to admit that you did you know but that's a you know when there's money on the line or following on the line you really can't so um that's how you learn right now you have to step out you have to mess up and get it wrong and then you learn next time hey hold on let me not be so quick if it's true it'll it's gonna it's gonna linger it's gonna prove itself that kind of thing that feeling or whatever and i've seen a lot of that over the years but i have also been a part of like getting getting it right you know what i'm saying um for other people but definitely for myself you know and following that the intuition like you said like the way it comes to you and those times of being quiet and getting alone and one thing i talk about a lot is like uh getting quiet but finding something that where your subconscious is free to roam um and that is in the stillness that is meditation that is breath work prayer and those because you're like making it a point to do that but driving for me cutting the grass jogging doing something that where like you don't have to use your brain too much you're just kind of like on autopilot okay i've drove i drive this route every day for 20 years or 10 years or whatever so your mind just kind of like is open to receive new ideas from your intuition and and and things and so writing that stuff down but there's different ways to receive just like in your day-to-day well i think once you're tapped in and once you're mindful of it you get all kinds of stuff right yeah i mean how many great ideas have you gotten when you were in the shower or when you were driving to work in the morning because like getting in that autopilot place that's when you're just zoned out and that's what those epiphanies come in you know even like einstein talked about that einstein was one of the biggest advocates of intuition out there you know and it was like a bajillion years ago and he was a scientist he got his best ideas they would just come to him with a flash of insight you know he couldn't solve problems there was a story about a formula he was trying to solve and solve and solve they couldn't figure out and he like woke up in the middle of night and just came to him in a moment so that's how intuition works and so that's why it's so much easier once we learn to do it and open up to it because it just comes to us we just simply receive it it's that easy all we have to do is open to it and and really give it our intention to listen yeah yeah um and i hope you don't mind me just talking about my you know church references and stuff like that because there's a lot of people listening um we talk about hearing god's voice i mean this is how they would say it but we know that it's your intuition in in church culture church realm they would say god told me this yes god told me this about you and i'm starting to question that being being just a little bit more vocal about it i don't think it was god because there's people saying different things god told me this well god told me that oh really he said two different things that that kind of don't go together like what it is is we're able to read energy and we're reading stuff and it feels so strong and it's coming from a external place it seems like or maybe deep within it doesn't matter but we feel it so strong that we say god told me this or whatever i don't like that terminology too much anymore um own it you you feel it you said it trying to make god the scapegoat of god told me this listen no you own it you pick it up you deliver whatever you're feeling and help help that individual get over what they're going through if you can discern it i think there's a reason for that we talk about that a lot like if there's a reason you're picking something up this should be not just for you to judge it or to people gossip about it hey i felt this on this person or whatever but a way to to help that person find some type of spiritual freedom you know in their life absolutely absolutely i love that you say own it because that's that's it we need to own it like this is within us and you know in a way it is god when it's right it is god what we've got to make sure when it's wrong it's god right exactly because our egos we're still ego creatures yeah we still have strong egos and if we're so many people it's really hard to differentiate which one of those voices like i keep saying we don't we have more than one voice within it you can't just assume it's gone you have to know it you have to feel it you know yeah yeah it feels different it feels different when it comes from above i talk a lot about the scapegoat stuff too though like i think a big part of uh the god thing or you know maybe even a form of tarot cards and stuff is like hey the cards say this you know the card said that i didn't say it the card said it and i didn't say it god said it and you got to listen to god you might not listen to me but you got so there's a scapegoat aspect that again going back to the own it listen you're powerful you are strong there are many prophets and sages and seers that came before you and psychics who are really good at what they do but they owned it they didn't use god or whatever deity as the fall guy the scapegoat you know exactly that's huge it takes a level of confidence though but you got to start somewhere right right it does and you know the holy spirit it connects us all you know it's something that connects us all we all participate in we all feel it yeah but but it's it's owning our own you know we are individuals in in this whole process and the way that we're meant to to live and serve in the world owning that and i always talk about owning your intuition that's one of the phrases i use because because because when we own our intuition we own our power we own our truth in a really positive way in a way that can can bring good change to our lives and other people so it's so important that we step into that true power um what advice would you give because this is something that i talk talk about a lot because i've dealt with it my own self and then i've seen other people dealing with it and they don't even know that they're dealing with it and they don't know how to stop it um it's highly intuitive people highly creative people you know just like you being a painter you get all of these images and all these things coming to you and you'll start it you get a vision a deep inspiration i want to do this with my life or something like that you start it and then you don't finish it because you got another dose of inspiration another time in meditation you said you wanted to do this and that comes and then you're juggling 17 things that are all great they all could they all would work if you stuck with it but for some reason the the intuitive creatives get drawn away they start a website and then they start a different website and then they start at mlm and they try to start selling essential oils they do it for three weeks and then it fall you know what i found i found this weight loss program that's really good and then they'll go to that and they're just all over the place and all of them are great ideas all of them would work if they worked them how do we stop that i still find myself getting pulled by these other ideas and i have to remind myself write it down like hey hold on you said yes to this and you got to keep showing up no matter what it this podcast for sure i don't feel like it today i'm going to start a different podcast with a a panel of people i'm going to do another podcast that is straight paranormal you know we have all these ideas and they all could work i don't think there's enough time to really work them or maybe we can schedule it somehow but because of that the first thing that you started gets put on the back burner and nothing that you do succeeds because you keep coming with the it's almost like a curse for some people because they have not been able to reign it in and be able to control it have you noticed that oh yeah yeah i think it's a type of addiction actually addiction i think it's an addiction to that intuitive feeling because it's a wonderful place being inspired when you have that inspiration and we have these ideas and we have these creatives first moments of creativity and that's spark it's almost like a drug it's almost like a um an ecstatic experience because you're one you're connected you're in the flow you're like oh these ideas are great i gotta write them down i gotta do this and you know and you have that vision right and that's a beautiful sacred place to be but the problem is the next steps beyond that are not quite so much in that space because now you have to do the work now we have to go out there we got to do the icky stuff we've got to do our homework we've got to you know what i'm saying we got then it gets real right so we got to push through things get uncomfortable we have to you know work hard and not that that's not that we have any problems with working hard but you know sometimes some of them do though that's probably the hang up for a lot of them execution yeah execution it really is execution and i think it's the difference between idea and execution it's wonderful to live in that idea space and i i am as guilty of it as anywhere else anybody else if you look at what i have going on right now and i'm just popping around from idea to idea but then you got to get to that point eventually where you're like gonna pick your intuition is calling you gotta listen to what your your strongest calling is there and and where the doors are opening so that's a way to stop that is to listen to what doors are opening for you on the outside too right so so you have all these different things where are you where are you have alignment where's the most alignment where's the strongest alignment if someone asks you like oh maybe i should do this podcast and then suddenly you know someone sends you like a free podcast course well maybe that's the universe giving you a green light that you need to just keep going deeper into that right so so i totally get that i've experienced it myself and i think a lot of people deal with that because it's so wonderful to be inspired and creative and and but we do have to balance that in that young those two sides with that that hard work with that inspiration yeah you're 100 right for sure i'm with it um got to continue to speak to it though because it is a thing it keeps coming up for us and for others you know um richie man welcome to the show bro you got a question for kim hello many thanks yeah gratitude for your change i really appreciate the resonance that you're embodying oh thank you richie for sure i was curious if there were in your perspective like layers or levels of intuition or if it's a gradient or if it's like a static thing just kind of open in that box but many things oh wonderful that's a great question so i do feel like um you know there are different maybe different vibrational uh levels of awakening when it comes to intuition i think we start out in a place where you know we're all we're all born with intuition as children and we have very vibrant intuitions actually most of us when we're young and society's kind of like banged that out of us as we go to school and we learn you know how to learn a certain way in school and how to not learn another way with with our more creative side so i think we're conditioned out of our intuition so it's really pushed us down into more of an unconscious or subconscious level uh throughout life and so it's one of the things i'm trying to struggle to change because we need to start with the young people now and encourage intuition at a very young age and just foster this so they don't have to reset like most of us have to at our age so um so so yeah so i think that once that awakening happens i think gradually the more you open your intuition the more you use it the stronger it comes the more it opens i've been i've been working with intuition for over 20 years and i i am i'm every year i'm in a different place than i was the year before so wherever you are on your journey you're going to continue to go further you're going to continue to open up further and i don't know what lies ahead you know i i keep pushing myself because i want to push these boundaries and see how far we can go but you know as far as i'm concerned the sky's the limit and we have this potential to do so many extraordinary things with our intuition if we just stick with it nice thank you for answering my question what i got is that there's a range but there's like no cap there's no cap as far as i can tell like kind of perspective in the person who's making the journey or the quest or the seeking if they're ready for teaspoons or tablespoons or ladles or shovels exactly and that's up to you and wherever you are you know you just take that next step and let your intuition guide you where you're meant to go awesome richie thanks for the question bro andrew uh andrew's with us i think andrew has a question as well for kim hi andrew hey kim it's been a great conversation here in the car about to run into the gym so i'll shut that all down but yeah i just wanted to tap in and say thank you for uh sharing your story and all of the insight that you've shared um my my question is you know over the last 10 years or so 2011 was kind of the last normal year for me right 2012 it just kept going more and more and more uh stimulated to where it's just like how do i get my next dopamine hit and how many can i get in one minute and really as i'm starting to be aware of that and i've started to go within and just take 15 minute meditation practice an hour long in yoga class these things stop me from you know hitting the phone hitting the laptop hitting the tv hitting the video games and i become i've become obviously more intuitive and so i just wanted to take your um take on the last 10 years and however stimulated we really have to where they can really ping us any time and tell us to put these on you know or whatever and um and how you personally kind of handle your digital life and and stay intuitive more intuitive such such a great question and i think the reason one of the reasons that intuition is is becoming so important right now is because it is that counterpoint to be living in this data saturated culture now i mean back in the old days people had silence they didn't have to sit and create stillness because they had it all the time there was nothing to do it got dark there was not electricity you know so so there was silence it was just more of a natural way of being but now the first time we get a second of stillness we're on our phones or we're turning on the tv or we're doing something right so so i i think what you said is so important especially over the last 10 years that intuition making making this reset to our intuition and to moving into that place is stillness and mindfulness there's a reason why it's resonating so much now because we need it now more than ever so for me i set boundaries like i say you know i'm gonna do my social media between like for me i do in the morning like i'll have between like 10 and 11 i'll sit down before i start my day i'll do all my social media and then i'll check it like maybe on my lunch break and maybe this is part of my job so i have to do i have to stick it to stick with it regularly so i try to create boundaries of certain times that i'm looking at so i'm not tempted just to always be there like just whenever i don't have anything to do um and that's really been helpful and sometimes on the weekends i don't look at it at all or i'll take a tech free day and like just like this year on christmas we detect three christmas and just had a whole day with no technology and it was glorious you know and you don't realize it until you have to go back to the technology it's like how nice that space is and how that nice it is not getting sucked into those conversations that you don't want to get pulled into or that dialogue or that noise or that agitation um so and then really also unfollowing uh people that that don't bring joy like marie condoing your your facebook page and your twitter page or instagram when you get into that place where you can only keep things there that uplift you and make you feel connected and better and um really allowing it to be something that feeds you instead of drains you yeah absolutely i i very much agree with that and i think too i think that the main hits come when we hit these uh days where we're just flooded i mean yahoo news probably hit my phone like 15 times yesterday and normally it's like once a day and and so i'm you know i got that on to see what's going on and you know then i hop into facebook and it's flooded and then i hop into reddit and it's flooded and i'm like hold on let me just take a break from all this because it really is just a hit hit what's going on what's happening in the in this story now what's going on now and then i cut i catch myself doing that and really what these are doing is creating judgment for us and as soon as we have anything that triggers a judgment we you know can't be intuitive at the same time in my opinion right so as soon as i catch myself judging i'm like hold on hold on a second let me just close my eyes and take a deep breath because then i can actually okay well you're supposed to be journaling right now anyway so just get pick up that journal and shut that phone right off right and i mean literally i did just turn the whole thing off and i'm like all right here we go that's off now you know and now i can just go back in get all my goals written on paper and you know then you know journal about what i'm feeling about this instead of you know hitting the social media like i almost did hitting the friends post with all right here's the meme here's how i really feel which obviously sparks judgment in them and then you know that's exactly exactly why we're divided as a country in my opinion yeah exactly and you know that's part of the whole process of you know some might even say that there's been a sort of you know over the recent centuries and culminating with now all of this has really been all the things that are happening have been an intentional act to pull us away from our intuition to pull us away from our stillness because it's almost like all of this stuff is put there and that's our temptation and that draws us away from ourselves and the more they can draw us away from ourselves and into this cycle of karmic karmic news karma whatever you want to call it all that stuff is taking us away from our peace and our truth so that's why when i talk about this idea of radical intuition it's a radical thing the most revolutionary thing you can do is be true to yourself and and just tune all that stuff out and not let it even affect you right and not let it draw you in that's a huge shift it's a huge shift in our life in the way that we live it and and our way our relationship to god in the universe so our intuition is calling us it's calling us back to ourselves and back to our our true you know spiritual being and the less we are drawn away from the noise of social media and the news and everything that's happening out there that the stronger our connection will grow within yeah that's good um one thing that i know andrew posted in our discord chat was about how like even tick tock like turn it all off like tick-tock the weird thing is i've kind of like jokingly said like you know what has got us through the pandemic what has helped us to get through it and people say you know first responders or the fast food restaurants or the the local businesses for me yeah all of those things but tick tock like for i think check like it got really big when the pandemic hit because it was an instant turn off facebook turn off the news and start laughing watch videos of people of dog dogs doing cute things and funny most of it's comedians it's really funny it's a quick comedic relief but then yesterday just like andrew was saying we jump on even tick tock where you go to get that dose of inspiration instantly almost every scroll like tick tock had become real political and like this weird agenda that yeah it's sprinkled throughout tick-tock but you gotta kind of like those videos to see it and like every scroll was about this doom and gloom and all of this kind of stuff it's like wow they've even hijacked this one little thing that has been a dose of inspiration now that is preaching doom and gloom now too you know yeah it's so funny because i was doing the same thing i was just like i just want to feel good just i want to just see something i'm looking through tick-tock i was like just give me a laugh right right and i was just like oh you can't get away from it it's everywhere yeah it's crazy yeah doing the inner work and turning that stuff off and and catching yourself is the thing right like catching catching for it right i mean there's a place we're not gonna totally you don't have to totally get off social media you can if you want it's great but but as long as you have it like like i said like create boundaries have it in a space so it doesn't control you or you can feed that that cycle of overthinking yeah it's huge it's hard and you got you have to be you have to be radical about that yeah to to notice it to notice your flaws and and posts that pull you outside of your character or maybe that's the e i say your character it's your ego you know that part that part of you exists you don't maybe like it or maybe you're trying to work on it but so-called political posts pull you out of your character so-called religious posts and you have to comment and i did even three posts last night and a lot of people were liking it a lot of people um would even like i know i would lose friends over just giving an opinion on the political stuff and i've i have an opinion a very strong opinion but i've made it i haven't i try to hold back because i know that it is so i know that that is created to at least at least my truth is that that's that's created to to divide us and it would split my audience right down the middle and that's not the fight that i want like that's not i try you need to choose your battles wisely and it has this way of sucking us into we're not into politics but now everyone's in the politics and every like they have the way these stories are scripted and with the technology and what they show you and the headlines and stuff it pulls you in so i had to go back and delete those posts i'm like man that's not my you know it pulled me outside of my character and i don't really want to comment on that so even though i have a part of me does i i know it's not beneficial i know it's not going to change anything i know it's not going to help anyone keep i need to keep that to myself kind of thing you know it's like what you said too with discernment like yeah we have our opinions we have we know where we are on our journey and what this means to us but i think in in what we do talking about the truth you know the truth will speak for itself and and the truth is above politics and you know it's only our place to speak our truth in so far as it's going to meaningfully help other people and when you know because people i had i had someone on an interview get actually get very confrontational with me because i didn't want to make a political statement about something and and for me you know i want everybody to find their intuition i don't care if they love trump or hate trump i want everyone to find their intuition because at the end of the day if they really find that then we're all going to come together right so it's more than you know what party you subscribe to and all these labels and division and stuff like it's all beyond that the work that we're doing and the truth that you're talking about is the same as the truth that i'm talking about so it's our role is to help everyone find that you know yep 100 um man uh kim i really enjoyed this talk it's been amazing it's a subject very near and dear to my heart and we can keep going on and on and on and we'll have to do it again get you back on but uh for people who who want to check out the book and you've got a bunch of other programs and free

blessings you're well bye-bye kim chesney ladies and gentlemen great conversation great talk following your intuition um to follow your intuition you know and there's levels to it's like the question richie brought up is there levels to it uh yeah you get better at it and i think it starts with small things at first you know with levels of trust and levels of faith or levels of belief that okay that worked next will this work more and more more and more okay i could be trusted why it's your destiny like it eventually leads you to the place that you're supposed to be what you're supposed to be doing and when so many people struggle to find their identity i do think that getting connected with following that what we'll call still small voice because usually it doesn't yell sometimes it does but it's usually a still small voice that comes from within following it saying yes but continuing to say yes to it as well it's huge it's led me to where i am today many beautiful experiences many beautiful relationships um over the past years and um yeah keep saying yes and we call it different things you know it really is in in the conversation of the spirit world and how to hear god how to hear the holy spirit but uh it's speaking through many different ways you know and and learning how to do that with your uh spirituality being able to see god speaking to you and those synchronicities are amazing one thing we didn't talk about i was going to ask her but i forgot um we could talk about it now but is when that stuff turns on and then it turns off like sometimes your synchronicities and all of these beautiful things that are happening or like boom boom right back one after the other one after the other happening and then all of a sudden they stop uh i had that happen um i think 2016 i think it was and um just in this beautiful place everything was spiritual everything was beautiful i um bought tickets to a concert something that and it's literally like all areas of your life you know god is god knows who you are and where you are but for me i was gonna buy tickets to a concert the insane clown posse concert some of you know this story and um and i wanted to go maybe have a reunion with some guys from high school who used to be into it but i knew how vulgar i knew how violent these this band is and i wanted to do it and and uh i went to purchase the tickets but my gut was saying don't don't you do it do not do it and i'm like reasoning that inner reasoning no it's okay i can do it like i'm not gonna i can go have a good time and you know not be persuaded by the music and but i don't i don't know it was just something deep down within me that voice of the holy spirit you can call it that you can call it god you can call it your intuition it doesn't matter i love all of the convert i love all of those terms and it is all of them it is the holy spirit it is god it is jesus it is the archangel michael whatever you want to call it but your intuition is speaking to you all of those are uh personas and archetypes that we need to communicate what the hell is happening but i've had this really deep feeling not to do it and literally i went against my own intuition my own inner judgment and i bought the tickets and as soon as i clicked by and bought those tickets i felt a disconnect if i'm being led everywhere by this the voice of the holy spirit that speaks through your conscience that's one of his he that that's one of his attributes is that that he's would teach you and lead you into all truth and when you're being led into all truth and then you turn your back on that hold on you're begging to be led by the mysteries and the intuition and in the beautiful bliss of the holy spirit you're asking to be used and to be guided but then we guide you and then you say no you do your own thing instead you're sinning against yourself and that's what i did as soon as i bought those tickets i felt a disconnect as soon as i did and the contour concert was like two weeks later like two weeks from that time and all the way up to it i knew i was like i probably shouldn't go i didn't shouldn't go and whatever and but i went anyway and i felt disconnected um you have a form of godliness you can go through the motions and those things but you still don't really feel in it because you feel like there's a part of your heart that you've kind of kept away from god or the holy spirit as a part piece of you that he can't have at least for right now at least until there's two weeks it's the inner dialogue um and so i went and man like i had fun but it i put a dude in a choke lock at the damn concert like i could have got jumped it was pretty crazy like i shouldn't have went to the concert you know um but after that and then trying to come home and then okay the concert's over now i can get back into my spiritual routine now that that's behind me but then trying to get back in after having that two weeks of like just doing whatever you wanted to do and it was hard i felt i felt lost because like being so connected and so in tune with like miracles and this i mean we're praying for people over the phone and they're getting miraculously healed there's all kinds of stuff when you say yes and you're obedient and you're trusted with you know it gets really deep but um all that was like foreign it's like i was somebody else and then um you know i would do i was still doing interviews and this looks like it was 2016. um i'm asking people hey what do you do once you get out like once you get out of the flow how do you get back in you know and it just felt i there was nothing that i felt like i could do until eventually i just kept doing you know doing the first things doing the first works again going back to what you were doing when you were in the flow for me it's a lot of reading and a lot of prayer there's a lot of inner dialogue um but you know when you shut that off or you're you're disobedient to that that voice that you follow um you shut it down and it's called grieving the holy spirit is what that's called and i've done it uh a couple times you know what i'm saying and you just feel out of whack you just feel like crap but eventually i got back in it and even stronger than ever and uh so yeah always say yeah and listen to that inner voice that inner dialogue whatever it's telling you to do again judge the voice judge it make sure that it lines up with love and make sure that it is righteous make sure it's not telling you to do something crazy and you know people because people will claim that they're following their intuition or following god or following the holy spirit they go do some ridiculous stuff you know what i'm saying um so make sure that you err on the side of love don't err on the side of judgment don't err on the side of this is the truth and i have to tell you regardless err on the side of love man you know what i'm saying and uh and you will never go wrong and so that's where um that that's where you'll be guided that's where you'll won't have anything against you nothing that comes up later for you to a karmic debt or uh you know having a reap something that you've sown you've sewn discord you've sown confusion you've sewn heartache you know what i'm saying that you that's going to come back to collect make sure that is only beautiful things that you're doing that comes back to collect and so when you're repaid for all the stuff that you're doing all of the fruit the work of your hands that it comes back and it's multiplied over and over that it's something beautiful that you can be expecting so air on the side of love continue to do love continue to bless continue to help this is a learning thing and and we won't really uh learn or grow unless we're open and honest about those situations like i don't like to even talk about that as part of the ego that would say hey don't talk about it people are going to think less of you or they're going to see the chinks in your armor and whatever the case is and so even that that voice that is saying no don't do it when you know that it is truth that you know that it is beauty and there's something telling you not to identify that voice that's saying no identify the voice that's telling you to quit identify the voice that's telling you to leave your family identify those voices that are trying to tell you and pull you to do bad things it's okay like learn that voice jesus said that my sheep hear my voice but a stranger's voice they will not follow you have to be able to learn and discern that stranger's voice that's trying to call you and pull you out of your character to make you say and do things that we know that the true you would never do and we're going through levels of healing we're going through levels of being trusted and being used by the spirit and there's things that you got to get rid of there's things that are in you that the old you would respond to that you can't take with you to the next levels let it go be refined by the fire say yes to the process and watch the amazing things that god will do with your life man uh with
