On October 30, 2016, I was shown a vision::
I was shown destruction. Ruins. Fires were out, and there was smoke coming from the ruins. Under the ruins were BRIGHT, BRILLIANT LIGHTS. Th ese beautiful lights of hope were shining brightly through various small holes within the ruins.
I heard these words:
“Tell them everything will be okay. We will rebuild in light.”

This book is dedicated to

Lightworkers everywhere.

For we are all

Lightworkers.

Each of us.

Lost and then found.

Lights up.

To M.

Thank you for your continued love and support.

I don’t know what I’d do without you!

I love you.

A personal note from the Author:

If you haven’t read either of my other books, you

will learn a lot about me from this book. I’m honest.

I put my truth out there, as uncomfortable as you

may think it is for me. Or for the reader.

If it helps someone else feel less alone, I’m all in. I

don’t care what anyone thinks about what I share.

If you have read my books, you already know this about me.

This book is no different.

My purpose is to help inspire others to go within. To find

that inner voice inside. God, Source, or whatever your

beliefs are, it doesn’t matter. It’s all the same place.

The gut. The Holy Spirit.

Pick a name.

Doesn’t matter.

It’s all the same place, where your truth

lies, beneath the surface.

You can get there through prayer, meditation, or just

plain putting your crap/ego/fear aside and listening.

That voice, that inner truth, is your SOUL.

Your feelings never lie.

Your soul knows all.

Your soul, the mothership.

I am not an expert in anything. (Except me. Haha)

This book is merely a How I did it, my personal HOW TO.

Although I feel it’s most relatable to the reader if I relate

the stories to my own personal life, my desire is when you

read my own personal lessons, you will relate to them.

I ask, (pray, meditate)

I believe, (Give it the God/The Universe, trust, and listen)

I receive the answers in gratitude.

At the end of each Chapter, you will

find a CHAPTER TAKEAWAY.

Believe me, I’m not telling anyone what to

do, I’m simply relaying messages.

Ya know, I’m just a Messenger.

Don’t blame me!

PROLOGUE

On October 30, 2016, I was being interviewed for a Podcast called, ‘The Power of Perception." I believe the subject of the interview was around my first book, Are You Living Your Life, or Surviving your Past.

The host was scheduled to call me at noon. I was in my bedroom, preparing for the call. Candles were lit, incense was burning, and colorful note cards lay across my bed. Everything was clicking away, like small dancing embers of light. I was in alignment and knew my guides were all arriving to assist me during this interview. So much beautiful energy! I remember walking, pacing, to get the juices flowing. Just then I stopped in my tracks. I remember exactly where I was within my bedroom when I received the following vision, and the message that went along with it.

I was shown destruction. Ruins. Fires were out, and there was smoke coming from the ruins. Under the ruins were BRIGHT, BRILLIANT LIGHTS. These beautiful lights of hope were shining brightly through various small holes within the ruins. I heard these words:

Tell them everything will be okay. We will rebuild in light.

Just to be clear, the Universe is NON-PARTISAN. For real. The Universe does not take sides, everything works in vibrational alignment to the collective consciousness.

For a very long time, many Lightworkers felt something was coming. We were all being prepared. Groundwork was being laid, and we had no idea why. For the last 50 years, 40, 30, 20, 10 years, 6 years, 5 years, 4 years, 3 years, 2 years, 18 months, 9 months, 6 months, 3 months….we were being prepared. Like a countdown of sorts. The Universe would bring us together to meet, in CRAZY amazing ways, at certain times, to share, teach, and inspire each other; to light each other’s lights. We all felt like we knew each other, but didn’t know how, where or when! We learned together, then separate. We’d then come back together to share. We would come back to each other, and say, I was told to reach out to you! Listen to what I heard! Read this article, this book, watch this video! What are you hearing? Did you feel that last night? Listen to what my guides told me! I want to tell you about this dream I had about YOU! I CAN’T SLEEP!!! I have ANOTHER headache. I’m exhausted. My body aches. Are we in Retrograde again? Ugh! Oh, these crazy MOONS!!! What in the heck is going on?

Or one of my favorites, from a friend I met through my guides, Karen, I HAVE INTEL! Can you talk!?

More on that later.

My point is, we would help each other fill in holes, and basically confirm we weren’t losing our minds.

My guides were pushing me so much in the last few years. I knew I was being led to something, we were ALL being led to something, and that there was a reason for all of this energy around all of us for so many years. It got really crazy in 2012-2019, especially in November/December of 2019.

On December 22, 2019, I literally thought the planet was about to catch fire! Truly! I was receiving messages I could not understand. Far-fetched messages, that seemed to make no sense, I wrote them down, not a clue what it meant. I continued to talk to my Lightworker friends, and anyone who would listen. I remember at one point literally shaking. I actually journaled about it.

Something is coming, I don’t know what it is! They’re asking so much of me!

I felt like I was losing my mind.

I knew, without a doubt, the Universe was getting its army of Lightworkers ready for battle; and within each of our physical lives, if something was holding us back, they were sending each one of us messages to continue preparing, and get rid of those blockages so we may be of use to the world when we would be most needed.

If that makes any sense.

As most Lightworkers are highly ascended, we are still in different places in our ascensions. We were hearing a lot of the same thing, but at different levels.

Kind of like being tuned into a radio station and a song comes on. Although the song/message may be the same, some hear only certain words, or the frequency may be out of tune a bit. We help each other tune in, so perhaps the message could be heard clearer, and we will hear it in its entirety when we’re ready, when we’re in tuned, and get rid of our blockages.

If that makes any sense at all.

Lightworker continued to help each other, seek each other out, as 2020 rolled around, to at least confirm we each WEREN’T LOSING OUR MINDS.

The thing is, we are all being prepared, all the time. Not just Lightworkers as we know them.

For we are ALL LIGHTWORKERS, called upon to SHINE OUR LIGHTS FOR HUMANITY.

So, I listened. I knew EXACTLY what they wanted me to work on. The last of my blocks. I had worked so hard on myself, ascended my gifts through healing. I had already written 2 books, I was helping so many, and here we were. I was being asked to work harder. To go deeper. They had more for me to do. Did I mention they wanted me to go deeper? UGH! Yep, I had to deal with the last of the blocks, blocking me from doing what they wanted me to do, at the level they wanted me to be at.

Then came the pandemic, the
