United By Stoke is the RAVEN 425 RISE ABOVE Podcast

I was told today by my friend who is a pretty good 😊 old pal that 1 - he planed to retire on this day and 2- he was given only something like 6 months to live after his doctor 👨‍⚕️ visit... could you image working your whole life and then being told that right when you decide to really start living the life your dreamed of. I speak on how and why I think what we put into our body from food to stress matters for the long haul and the sooner we make it a habit (to be healthier) the sooner it becomes our lifestyle and the better our day to day life will be.... I am living proof of this! To feel better everyday is simply amazing 🙌👊❤️

As I sat in a wave pool 🏊 area last night in a non judgemental state... just vibin with the kids we took down to the area with their parents and because I was not going into the water 💦- I sat on the sidelines and cheered on the splashing many other parents sat beside me to converse and after about 40 minutes I noticed a very normal theme- and from there I wondered about the future of the children and our people in general 😳take a listen 👂 to hear my point of view

I finish off this epic learning curve with the fact that back when in the ancient days of the Greeks and Romans debate was a form of education for all parties involved yet in this highly educated group the minutes they would put out THEIR idea 💡 or better yet belief they would then shut down that conversation so as they called it NO FEELINGS would get hurt 😭.... they just did not want any rebuttal and I guess they are so indoctrinated that they do not want to hear 👂 any other form of ideas or beliefs.... but if this is being passed down in any form - health- financial- racial- how will change ever be made??🙏

In a highly educated group of doctors lawyers and mental health practitioners ... I sat in awe and being out of my league when it came to the schooling matrix I was truly blown away and yet so so acutely aware of how whatever book 📚 aka bible or schooling aka indoctrination we follow really does dictate our belief system. I was told how pop does not effect our system negatively as it has never been scientifically proven as well as how any other form of medicine other than western was and in quackery and should be outlawed 🤔In this day and age if this is how our most educated individuals think - totally inside of one 📦 box and they are teaching this to the next generations how will it all turn out?

I continue on about how all the past memories that are stored in our cells our DNA and how that came to my awareness every time I took a punch 🤛 all the past pain hurt and fears of the pain and hurt came flooding into my head forcing me to move backwards instead of forwards- this is so the same for almost all decisions we face in life. Most of the time we base them on our past experiences which kill our future growth because we always tend or want to avoid pain disappointments and fear. This is our life this is our moment- don't let past memories destroy the future! 🙌👊❤️

I speak about my underground 🚋 fight crew I belong to...how this month and especially last night has been all about moving in and never retreating- this whole situation relates to life in so so many ways! For me in this group I am by far the smallest and lightest person there - so it is very difficult mentally to start -as there are no weight categories so the way the human mind works is "they big we small- we scared 😳 of them"- for me and in life to stay away/avoid/ and stay in our comfort zone is just so damn easy! Yet in this fighting situation for me to stay where the comfort zone is (to not engage) leaves me the most at risk of receiving a death 💀 blow from a larger opponent- yet if I cross my own mind barriers and move forward and get inside my odds change dramatically to my favour...this is no different that most decisions we make in life - we try to avoid the pain thinking that is what's best for us.... this is not always the case 😲

In this follow up to my chat about the fellow soon to be side hustler aka business women aka entrepreneur boss lady.... I go a little deeper into the exact ideas 💡 and moves we all need to take to make our goals turn into action and then work those actions until it all becomes a habit and reality - to start to think outside the box 📦 there are no ideas to big - just keep asking and doing!!

After speaking about my Formula for coming from nothing to something... I spoke on how it was like a part of me... in my DNA ... like putting on underwear you don't remember how or why you started you just do it - its routine 🤔so after a very very deep hearted conversation with a fellow human who is somewhat lost with the future of her career- I started spouting off ideas 💡 but they made no sense to her... how would I - no that can't be - you can't do that can you... was the answers I was getting back. So I forget that not every one has the knowledge of working for themselves- so it was a good lesson as usual for me .... but in the end this lovely lady was ready to take the world by storm!!❤️👊🙌- we all even myself have to always think outside the 📦 box!!

I continue on about my DNA my formula for making it this far on my own... the how's the what's the time it takes and the dedication to mental and physical health that allowed me to excel along the way. It's simple to put in more hours allows you opportunity to bank more dollars 💵 for our goals dreams hopes and aspirations ❤️👊🙌

I've been asked of late the actual blue print the HOW to of my journey- the out on your own so early .... then how were you able to 1. Make money and 2. Then save that money - It took me a minute to remember where the teachings were installed into me and from whom... but I been doing it for so long that it's just a part of my DNA now.... so here is my formula in these 2 episodes
