Episode #134 - In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Cheryl Johnson to explore awakening, sovereignty, and the narratives that quietly shape how we see our world.

Together, we move through personal journeys of remembering, the importance of thinking for ourselves, and why love and discernment matter more than ever in a time of information overwhelm.

We talk about ancient civilizations, the manipulation of history, and how distorted narratives have kept humanity disconnected from its true power. Cheryl shares her insights on how our body is more than physical matter — it’s a frequency instrument, a conscious receiver that helps shape our reality when we learn how to work with it instead of against it.

This conversation is an invitation to reclaim your sovereignty, question the stories you’ve been handed, and honor the truth rising within you. The old systems are crumbling, and we’re stepping into a new era of remembering who we really are.

If today’s conversation stirred something in you and you’re ready to connect more deeply with yourself, I created a free meditation guide to help you drop into your own stillness. You can grab it through the link in the show notes.

Takeaways

• Awakening involves recognizing the hidden forces shaping our reality.
• Sovereignty is about taking control of our bodies and minds.
• Critical thinking is essential in challenging societal narratives.
• Love is a powerful frequency that can elevate our consciousness.
• Ancient civilizations hold truths that have been suppressed.
• The narratives we are fed may not reflect the truth.
• Discernment is key in navigating information and beliefs.
• We must challenge our own belief systems to grow.
• The control of information is a tactic used to disempower individuals.
• Awakening is a personal journey that requires courage and openness.
