In this episode, JÈ MARCELLE, highlights how the superficial nature that the world has taken in more recent years by way of social media, those of great influence and status, news outlets, television, and the entertainment industry and so forth has birthed a craving for more things which has brought about a spiritual deficit and caused many of us to become spiritually bankrupt in return causing us to neglect and reject the work of our soul & inner-man, especially our millennials and Gen-Z peers. Perfectionism is somehow now glorified while authenticity is not, in more ways than one. Wealth has become extremely romanticized so much so we’ve lost touch with reality and even more worse, ourselves. Take note, this conversation is not about our strive for better or us having or attaining wealth, but it’s about the process in-between us being born and getting THERE (wherever your there may be). I’d like to break the 4th wall of imagination just for a reality check, tell some truths so we can check in with ourselves, but more importantly encourage us. Do not cheat “the process.” Don’t forsake the work of the soul and spirit just for the applauds, recognition, lifestyle or look of “perfection.” I believe we can attain wealth, a quality lifestyle, our dreams, and too be/become whole in that process of getting to at the same time.
