Typically people believe that January 1 is the start of the new year but join us as we discuss why Spring should be when you start your new year. Spring is the season of rebirth, Easter, flowers blooming, and warming the atmosphere. Spring seems a more logical time to start the new year. AJ blesses us with his knowledge and expertise on aligning with the plants, stars, and numbers when manifesting your goals.

If loving you is wrong, I don't want to be right; if being right means being without you, I'd rather live a wrong doing life..... In this episode, we're talking about how we love our partner(s).

In this episode, the fellas do a catch-up on what's going on in the news and around the community. AJ and Ashton are catching up on some of the major events that have been circulating the internet and CNN. Tune in and see some of the important topics they find interesting. 

In this episode, AJ talks about not following the commercialized thinking of New Year, New Me. Why are we making changes when the universe shows us that plants, animals, and the sun are still in hibernation mode during this time? Life is anew when things begin to grow, which so happens to be during the beginning of Spring. Could this be why it's harder to keep New Year's resolutions because the seeds you planted before January are still germinating? So instead of making changes, what are you leaving in 2022 and inviting in 2023? Listen in to our 2023 fruitfulness.
