Discover Your Other Self

By Reggie Waterman

There's that whisper we all hear from time to time that tells us what path to take, what direction to go in, how to feel and how to react. Some times that voice gets louder and louder as time progresses, but we often choose to ignore it. Some people call it your intuition, but it's actually your other self-speaking to you, guiding you, wish

WORDS FROM THE DISCOVER YOUR OTHER SELF COMMUNITY

I love Reggie’s real-talk on DYOS because he discusses the deeper issues people often feel, but don’t want to discuss on a live show. At its core, his show is about inspiring people to think in different ways and to keep moving forward.

– Wendy Glavin

Discover Your Other Self (DYOS) brings very real and in-depth topics and ideas to the forefront all while having fun and making you feel right at home.

– Pedro Maciel

Reggie is one of the best inspirational personalities anyone could follow! His shows are raw and authentic, with the opportunity to impact your life for the better.

– Melody Belliveau

I was iffy at first about checking out DYOS, but I can certainly say it is one of the big reasons I broke out of my shell and became more driven to help support my peers health and wellbeing in my own creative way!

– Eric Labancz

DYOS has been an eye opener. Great guests and topics that he covers on his show relate to my everyday life. Its taught me to be myself and given me tips on how to interact with people within my industry. Watching his show has given me more confidence in not limiting myself and pushed me to go after different opportunities that I normally wouldn’t even consider.

– Roy Seelall

It has a calming effect on me, a type of self-care that I now look forward to every Thursday evening. DYOS truly is a great experience. I recommend this show as a valuable option to meet, greet, learn, have fun, and grow.

– Abby Jules

Many times, after the event I find myself immediately watching the replay and reading the comments. So, discover your other self now by joining Reggie Waterman, his guests and the DYOS community at the next #DYOS event.

his book would not have

been possible without God. Whether or not you believe there is a God is up to the sole discretion of the individual, but it is my duty to show gratitude in The Source that I am connected with.

The whispers that I received from God that one morning in March of 2020 has led to this publication. Through his direction I have been able to meet and converse with individuals that impacted my life in some shape or form.

Thank you, God, for the blessings, the opportunities and the hardships. All these events have led me to this very moment and the book will be used as a seed to deliver a message to the masses that will help others discover their purpose and renew faith in your existence.

May this book transform the lives of millions and bless the hands of everyone that touches it.

Hearts and eyes of many will be open to witness their own greatness and desires.

This is my declaration and testimony that God is in the process of manifesting my dreams. These dreams are now turning into reality.

I declare this manifestation in the name of Jesus Christ.

Amen.

s I grew up, I

heard the saying, Life is never easy. It is a battlefield for the brave. This quote didn’t fully make sense until 2019, when I hit my own version of rock bottom. I realized that life is packed with circumstances that unleash the bravery that is in each and every person.

In simple terms, bravery is a display of courageous behavior. The only reason why you might think that you are not brave is because you have not allowed that courageous behavior to be exposed. There are certain triggers that can bring forth that brave version of yourself. Sometimes, it takes difficult circumstances and situations to draw out glimpses of bravery.

This brings us to the fact that there are two versions of every being, the less resilient one that usually operates until the difficult moments arise and the resilient one that can cruise through whatever life may bring. The former is usually what we know about ourselves all the time, and the latter we usually have to discover.

Discover Your Other Self (DYOS) is a reflection of that moment when circumstances force you to uncover your resilient self. That hour when friends and family cannot
