For the first time, I intuitively chose a number before listening to one of your podcasts. Normally I would listen to the newest one or find one with a title that stood out. On this day, however, I thought of the number 99 and went very far back into your episodes to find it. At first, I didn’t put together why this episode had been chosen for me. I was on my way to work and it wasn’t until half way in I heard something that I’d consider relative to my current situation. It was the advice “respond, don’t react”. The day prior I had experienced two situations that I normally would’ve reacted negatively to but instead chose the ‘higher road’ keeping LOVE in mind. My choices benefited me and created a better outcome in the end. I thought to myself, “Okay, this is something I needed to hear”, as I tend to lead with my (negative) emotions. Once I got to work I was pulled into a meeting with the staff where at the end my boss shared a quote. The quote was “respond, don’t react”.
I’m very new to this way of thinking and your podcasts have been life changing. My husband and I listen daily which has also helped us in our own relationship. We were both in disbelief when I told him about my synchronistic morning. Thank you for sharing your truths and working so hard to provide us with new insights to the world around us.
P.S. - I find in to be very meaningful that I’m new to your podcasts and I keep seeing butterflies everywhere I go. I like to believe this is a transformative symbol and that You have helped me start this amazing transformation in my life! Thank you so so so so much!!
