How I Found My Path (By Getting Lazy)

My students often ask me how I started on this path.

The surprising answer: it began because I got lazy.

Left on autopilot, my instincts are to be a super-doing go-getter. Around 2017–2018, I had huge plans—things to build, skills to acquire, people to meet. It was exciting but also highly stressful.

Eventually the stress boiled over, and one morning I simply decided that all of it was too much effort. Developing endless plans, chasing achievements—it wasn’t bringing joy or ease. So I trashed the entire agenda.

Instead, I sat around, did nothing, and waited for inspiration. You could say I joined the #lieflat movement before it became trendy post-2020.

And then, the astounding part happened: I began receiving messages, visions, and directions for self-healing. Later came downloads of tools and technologies to improve human life. Star beings showed up. I wrote everything down, fascinated.

By mid-2019, I had published my first book, Finding YourSELF for Starseeds and Lightworkers: Activations for Awakening to Your Galactic Presence. By early 2020, more galactic-themed classes and materials arrived. Then came soul purpose work, Buddhic teachings, DNA activations, and more.

By 2021, I was teaching others not only my work but how to teach it. By 2022, I was guiding people to develop their own soul work.

Commitment to goals and projects is valuable. Effort is necessary. But there is also such a thing as being too hardworking—to the point that you drown out inspiration and guidance from the Universe.

When you’re constantly running, the Divine can’t catch you long enough to whisper directions.

That’s why, when I work with students on psychic abilities or channeling, I spend significant time simply teaching their energy fields how to be still and receptive. Their auras must learn to go into “receive mode” before anything can flow.

Reflection exercise: How does the action–stillness scale currently tilt in your life? Do you need more action—or more stillness?

Your soul purpose will always call to you, though often in small steps. The question is: do you notice, and do you follow?

What makes the difference is whether you hold door-opening qualities—traits that allow you to step into the unknown.

For me, the quality is curiosity.

When I receive guidance, my first reaction is puzzlement: Really? Me? That? But sheer curiosity drives me to follow through and see where it leads. This one trait has taken me down incredible paths.

Curiosity does sometimes overload my system (downloads can fry my body until I rest and integrate). But overall, it has been my greatest door-opener.

Other people may open doors differently:

• Drift — you naturally wander into new spaces and end up somewhere surprising.
  
  

• Details — fascination with small things leads you to hidden discoveries.
  
  

• Connection — you allow others to guide you into opportunities you wouldn’t reach alone.
  
  

What about you?
