Awaken Hope

After all, you know it’s not just about money…Leisa shares...

After working on the relationship I had with myself for over 20 years and then bringing these discoveries back into my relationship with money, I came to realize how common it is for many of us to get confused about what it means to truly value ourselves.

More common than not, we believe our value comes from external sources like money, relationships, and beauty.

However, this isn’t really what causes true self-value. Instead it comes from inside and no amount of money, or success for that matter, is going to change it. Which is why you can have all the money in the world and still feel poor inside. 

True freedom comes as a result of improving how you feel about yourself.

Many people lose out on money, time and opportunity every day because they don’t understand how to shift the inner narrative that impacts their their peace of mind.

My work is unique because it comes, from the essential knowledge in my core, from my intuition, and from my skills, which have been refined for more than two decades of practice, during which I’ve worked with thousands of clients from all over the world. I share my knowledge with those who value it and dedicate their time and energy to a greater purpose: that of knowing themselves. 

My approach is not mystical, it is practical. I inspire people to overcome their limitations. I believe true self-realization should generate an impact on the material dimension because that is where change can be actualized and applied.

For many people, it isn’t until you go through this process that you achieve financial independence and economic freedom.

Meet Sarah Trop

Sarah started FunCycled in 2012 to share tips for redoing furniture and then sell the furniture. Since its start in 2012, FunCycled has grown from selling repurposed furniture to designing custom furniture orders like dining room tables, launching into interior design services, and kitchen cabinet repurposing. 

We’re John and Sarah, and this is our story. Family is everything, and making time for both our business and each other always stands at the center of what we do. We love traveling, seeing beautiful places and exploring new adventures that inspire our work!

We’ve also been able to have once in a lifetime adventures like being on the Rachel Ray Show, winning on HGTV’s Flea Market Flip show, and winning BYU tv’s show Survivalist!!

We have two teens who help in the business and are the reason we started FunCycled. We wanted to have more time at home with them while they were little. They are our biggest blessings in life. Such a joy!

John has extensive woodworking skills from working in contracting and carpentry for 10 years; he knows how to create all the requests Sarah sends his way. As a family, we’re upcycling and rejuvenating homes, kitchens, and furniture on its way to the curb into something beautiful. We service much of New York state and are able to ship to other parts of the US.

We also bought a house in 2019 and have been repurposing it room by room! We call it our Repurposed Idea House and you can see some of the project we’ve been working on here.

About Caren Paskel

Caren Paskel is a best-selling author, speaker, and founder of Caren Paskel Self-Evolution, Youthful Longevity Yoga Training and Retreat™, and the Self-Evolution Education (S.E.E.) Foundation. A master in Vedanta philosophy and a lifelong yoga practitioner—starting her growth journey at just 16—Caren has dedicated her career to guiding individuals toward holistic transformation, empowerment, and self-mastery. With decades of experience in yoga and spiritual education, she provides a practical roadmap for integrating ancient wisdom into modern life.

As the former owner of EnSoul Yoga, Caren led multiple studios and a thriving yoga community. She navigated the challenges of business leadership alongside personal adversity—caring for her husband and ultimately losing him to terminal brain cancer at the age of 30 during the pandemic. Amidst this loss and the closure of her yoga studios, she leaned into the power of self-belief, universal laws, and community to elevate both her mission and personal growth. She now shares these principles through her signature programs, CarenNotes on Happiness and Youthful Longevity Yoga Training and Retreat., which have been proven to help individuals develop resilience, longevity, and fulfillment by aligning the mind, body, and spirit.

A firm believer in the power of mentorship and collective energy, Caren has inspired thousands through her Self-Evolution courses, retreats, and books, including The Power of Self-Belief. Her teachings focus on the eternal values of life, the path of yoga to self-realization, and the importance of breaking free from small thinking to step into one’s highest potential.

Caren’s work also emphasizes a holistic approach to longevity, integrating disease prevention, energy management, emotional well-being, physical vitality, transformative relationships, and a deep sense of purpose. What sets her apart is her focus on the mind-body-spirit connection and her ability to apply ancient wisdom to modern challenges. Her latest endeavor, Youthful Longevity Yoga Training and Retreat., provides a high-vibrational and supportive space for deeper exploration into sustainable well-being and lifelong growth.

As a podcast guest, Caren offers deep insights into self-belief, holistic longevity, and personal transformation through Vedanta philosophy and yoga. She speaks on the power of mindset, breaking through limitations, and integrating ancient wisdom for modern success. Her inspiring journey—from building a successful yoga enterprise to evolving her mission—makes her a compelling voice for audiences seeking guidance on resilience, empowerment, and thriving at any age.

James Hill is a native New Yorker, born and raised in the Bronx, James L Hill spent his adolescence years in Fort Apache, the South Bronx 41st precinct during the 60’s, a time when you needed to have a gang to go to the store. Raised on blues, soul, and rock and roll gave him the heart of a flower child. Educated by the turmoil of Vietnam, Civil Rights, and the Sexual Revolution turned James into a gladiator. Realizing the precariousness of life, he took on an adventurous outlook trying anything once, and if it did not kill him, maybe twice.

12 years of Catholic education and a couple of years in college spread between wild drug induce euphoric years, which did not kill him, produced an unique moral compass that swings in any direction it wants. A scientific mind and a spirit that nothing is impossible if you want it bad enough guides his writings. He enjoys traveling to new places and seeing what life has to offer.

With little other interest outside the bedroom, and still a hopeless insomniac, he is free to pound out plots. James writes crime stories (as J L Hill), Killer With A Heart is the first in a series for Bulletproof Morris ‘Mojo’ Johnson and Killer With Three Heads continues the saga. Book 3, Killer With Black Blood  in 2021 and Book 4, Killer With Ice Eyes completed the series in 2022. He writes science fictions Pegasus: A Journey To New Eden, with a slant on the dark side of life under his given name. He recently penned, The Emerald Lady, the first in the fantasy Gem Stones Series and book 2, The Ruby Cradle. Both of which have received praise. The third book, The Diamond Warrior is in the works. A collection of short stories spanning decades, The Moth and Other Tantalizing Tales is now available.

J. M. Shaw is a Canadian author of fantasy fiction who lives in Alberta with her husband and two young children. She’s been writing since childhood, building worlds from raw imagination and quiet observation, but it took years before she found the courage to share them. For Shaw, storytelling has always been more than a hobby; it’s a passion.

In 2019, Shaw was diagnosed with autism and ADHD, a turning point that brought clarity to a lifetime of feeling “too much” or “too different.” Her intense focus, emotional depth, and ability to live inside fictional worlds became not flaws but the superpowers of a neurodivergent mind. These qualities shape her stories, infusing them with realism, heart, and meaning, and giving her the courage to finally share her creative works. Her worlds may be fantastical, but her characters—flawed, searching, and deeply human—resonate on a personal level.

When she’s not writing, Shaw enjoys connecting with nature, curling up with a good book, and dreaming up new worlds. She also finds joy in encouraging young writers to pursue their own passions.
