Connect 2 Love

Play is not just for children; it’s a fundamental aspect of being human that fosters creativity, joy, and a sense of freedom. Embracing play allows us to approach life with curiosity and openness, seeing challenges as opportunities for learning and growth rather than obstacles. Incorporating the idea of play and enjoyment is crucial to being an active participant in your own life.

Join Lisa and Michael as we explore the importance of the importance of being present and fully experiencing life. When we immerse ourselves in our experience and engage with life directly rather than simply contemplating it from a distance it allows us to live more authentically and joyfully, fully embracing the adventure of life. Embracing the idea of finding joy and creativity in everyday activities enables us to approach life with a sense of curiosity and openness, finding delight in small moments, and not taking ourselves too seriously. As we actively engage in our lives, we discover a world brimming with experiences that are vivid and meaningful allowing us to live a more fulfilling and joyful life.

Children are masters of play,effortlessly losing themselves in imaginative worlds. Their uninhibited joy and curiosity serve as a reminder of the transformative power of play. By observing children, we can learn to embrace spontaneity, curiosity, and the sheer delight of being present in the moment.

On this episode, Lisa and Michael explore how as adults rediscovering a playful spirit can be a powerful way to reconnect with their inner child, find joy in the present, and build stronger relationships. As children, we innately love to play because it is how we explored the world and our place in it. Embracing our natural inclination towards play invites curiosity, creativity, and connection with others. Through play, we can learn to embrace the joy of spontaneity and delight of being present in the moment. Play encourages us to take a lighthearted approach to life’s challenges, helps us foster a positive outlook and provides us with a foundation for lifelong joy.

Discovering happiness in unexpected new places requires a spirit of adventure and a willingness to step outside our comfort zones. When we open ourselves to new possibilities, we invite fresh perspectives and opportunities into our lives. This openness allows us to find joy in places we might never have considered before, whether it’s a new hobby, a different social circle, or an unfamiliar environment.

Join Lisa and Michael for a fun-filled exploration of discovering happiness and fun in the most unexpected places. When we dare to look beyond the familiar and stretch beyond our current conventions, instead of waiting for joy and excitement to come from the usual sources, we can create richer, more fulfilling experiences by reaching farther and being willing to grow. We will be exploring the magic of letting go of rigid expectations and remaining open to the unknown, so that we can create space for serendipitous moments and delightful surprises. These unplanned moments of joy can be the most memorable and transformative. By stretching beyond our current life experience, reaching farther, and being willing to grow, we unlock a world of possibilities that can make all the difference in our pursuit of joy! Your adventure awaits! 

“There are almost unlimited possibilities for making discoveries and to uncover the unknown. It is in the nature of the discovery that it can not be planned or programmed. On the contrary it consists of surprises and appears many times in the most unexpected places.” — Bengt I. Samuelsson

Dr. Joe Dispenza wrote “The unknown has always been the doorway to the unknown possibilities of your own life.” When we venture into the unknown, we embark on a profound journey of transformation. This journey is marked by the spirit of curiosity and a willingness to question our old beliefs. By doing so, we open doorways for discernment and create the potential to bridge the gap between spirituality and science.

Lisa and Michael are joined by Maureen Oehrle, for an amazing conversation about her transformative journey which was ignited by a spark of curiosity and questioning as a child, leading her into a quest for learning about the unknown.  We will be delving into what drives us to seek answers and the opportunities that arise when we challenge the limitations of our current knowledge. By questioning our old beliefs, we dismantle the barriers that keep us confined within familiar paradigms. This process of inquiry allows us to see beyond the surface and recognize the deeper truths that connect all aspects of existence. We know you will delight in and be inspired by Maureen’s transformative journey and her ability to become a bridge for others to step into the unknown field of infinite potential. The conversation reminds us all that we are free to create new realities and forge connections between the seen and unseen, the measurable and the immeasurable into the realm where magic truly exists!

The most important opinion in the room is the one that whispers from within.

“Your potentiality is far greater than you understand.” — message through Carol Collins channel for The Teachers

Potentiality is a doorway, an invisible threshold that separates the now from the vast unknown of our future. It’s a space brimming with possibility, where the choices we make and the emotions we carry color the landscape of what’s to come.

On this episode of the Awakening Series with Carol and the Teachers, along with Lisa and Michael embark on a powerful conversation on “potentiality” – the idea that our future moments are influenced by the emotions and intentions we bring to the present. The awareness of potentiality empowers us to be active participants in shaping our own tomorrows.

Carol and the Teachers share the wisdom nugget that the seeds of tomorrow’s experiences are sown in the fertile ground of today’s feelings, thoughts, and actions. By nurturing positive emotions and clear, purposeful intentions in the present, we cultivate a trajectory toward a fulfilling and meaningful future. The messages, from the Teachers through Carol, offer valuable insights into the nature of the soul, the power of positive manifestation, and the joy of intuitive living. Potentiality invites us to recognize the immense power we hold in shaping our destiny through the conscious and deliberate choices we make empowering us to turn our dreams and aspirations into reality.

There’s a subtle but important distinction between being passionate about something and being passionate about passion itself. Passion fuels curiosity. It can be a guiding light that helps us discover what truly matters to us and gives our life a sense of purpose.

On this week’s show, Lisa and Michael explore how being passionate about our passion can act as a driving force that infuses our lives with meaning and joy. When we passionately pursue what we are passionate about, we engage deeply and fully with the world around us. A quote from Oprah Winfrey beautifully captures the essence of pursuing passion, “Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.” Becoming actively engaged in things that excite us creates a positive energy that spills over into other areas of our lives. This engagement leads to a heightened state of awareness and enthusiasm, creating a sense of exuberance for life.

We sharing our thoughts on how embracing life with passionate passion helps us cultivate an intrinsic motivation and a deep curiosity about life and its possibilities. Being passionate about passion is about embracing the journey of exploration, self-discovery, and growth. It’s about nurturing that spark within ourselves that allows us to find joy, meaning, and a sense of purpose in the things that truly excite us.

“Find your passion, whatever it may be. Become it, and let it become you, and you will find great things happen FOR you, TO you and BECAUSE of you.” – T. Alan Armstrong

Life presents us with a constant dance between two viewpoints: to peer through the clouded lens of fear, or to embrace the openhearted perspective of love. The eye of fear is a place shrouded in shadows, where possibilities shrink and anxieties loom large. It’s a vantage point where negativity can block our vision like storm clouds, and challenges appear to morph into insurmountable obstacles. However, within us lies another perspective – the eye of love. Love, bathes us in the warm glow of optimism, our hearts expand, and potential unfolds like a vibrant sunrise.

On this episode, Lisa and Michael explore embracing the transformative power of love over allowing fear to dictate our reality. We will be delving into how when we focus on love, fear loses its power. Just as entering the eye of a hurricane disrupts the storm’s destructive force, choosing love disarms negativity’s grip allowing us to let go of the illusions of doubt, limitation,  and the paralyzing obstacles created by the “what-ifs.” Discover how choosing to see through the eyes of love as our guiding force empowers us to act with courage, to dream boldly, and to pursue our goals with passion and determination. Through love, we are encouraged to take positive risks, build meaningful relationships, and approach challenges with a mindset of growth and resilience.

The choice to view life through the eyes of love allows us to transcend the limitations imposed by fear and to step into a reality rich with potential and joy. By choosing love as our guiding principle, we align ourselves with the higher path of fulfillment and purpose, creating a life that reflects our highest ideals and deepest desires After all, as James Barrie wrote, “When the greatest dreamers wake up, and find that it was a dream, they go out and make it real.”

Imagine looking at a painting that is considered a masterpiece, each brushstroke, while not perfect on its own, contributes to the overall beauty of the final artwork. Our lives are like those masterworks —  a collection of moments, that when we take a step back from the canvas of our lives, enables us to see how each moment adds a unique contribution to the bigger picture. 

Join Lisa and Michael for an exploration into the distinction between feeling perfect and striving to be perfect in our relentless pursuit of achievement and success. Feeling perfect is about accepting ourselves exactly as we are, recognizing our inherent worthiness and embracing our imperfections as part of what makes us uniquely human. On the other hand, the drive to be perfect is rooted in external validation, fueled by unrealistic standards and the fear of falling short. 

We will be delving into prioritizing feeling perfect over striving to be perfect, as a means of unlocking a profound sense of freedom and self-compassion. By embracing imperfection and celebrating progress over perfection, we open ourselves up to a world of possibility and potential where every experience is an opportunity for growth and self-discovery. We learn to embrace the journey, with all its twists and turns, knowing that each step forward is a testament to our resilience and courage. As we cultivate a mindset of self-compassion and acceptance, we begin to realize that perfection is not the goal; rather, it is the journey of becoming our most authentic selves. Discover how recognizing the beauty in our imperfections allows us to paint a picture of a life that’s perfectly imperfect, beautifully unfolding with every step we take. 

“The goal is to FEEL perfect,not be perfect. Feeling perfection brings perfection, so feel it until it arrives.” — Sirius Joy
