No, that’s not a typo in the title. It might be Christmas Eve, but I’m not talking about presents…I’m talking about presence. The holiday season is upon us, which hopefully means more time with family, friends, and other loved ones. While exchanging gifts and presents, don’t forget that the greatest gift you can give someone is your presence–being there with them in the moment without distraction. I’m guilty of not always being present in family settings…scrolling my phone while being semi-present to the conversations and people in the room. It’s not something I’m proud of, but now that I am more aware of it, I can do something about it. And what better time than Christmas Eve with my family and Christmas Day with my in-laws? I’m sure the sweater, shoes, or V-bucks you bought will be well received and appreciated, but I know your attention and presence will be appreciated even more. Over the next few days, give the greatest gift you can and be present with the loved ones in your life. JC |

God/The Divine/The Universe will use Struggle to teach lessons you need to learn–some believe that our souls choose our current life with the explicit intention of learning a specific lesson. Whether you believe that or not, you can look back at challenging experiences and see that there were lessons...
When you are living your Authentic Life, you can opt out of the financial games that society has told you that you’re supposed to play. You no longer have to chase financial goals that do not align with your Authentic Self when you understand what your Authentic Life financially requires. You only need to chase the ones that align with your Authentic Self and Life. This can totally change your relationship with money–for the positive. I had the opportunity to explain this and more on The...
