Episode 62: Turning Grief into Limitless Growth: Bethany Shelton's Journey After Loss
Bethany Shelton shares her extraordinary journey from childhood medication to profound spiritual awakening after the tragic loss of her only son, Cavan, in a car accident. Her experience reveals how grief can transform into growth when we remain open to receiving signs and messages from beyond the physical realm.
• Diagnosed with ADD in third grade and heavily medicated with Adderall and Ritalin as a child
• Found healthy expression through soccer, becoming a varsity starter in her freshman year
• Raised an exceptionally bright son, Cavan, who scored in the top 1% on aptitude tests
• Received the devastating news in 2020 that Cavan had been killed instantly in a head-on collision
• Experienced inexplicable phenomena after Cavan's death – finding coins in impossible places, seeing specific birds after requesting signs
• Developed heightened spiritual sensitivity, including the ability to see auras and electromagnetic fields
• Created Be Limitless Now to help others transform grief into growth by raising their vibrational frequency
• Discovered that grief lowers our vibrational frequency, creating distance between ourselves and departed loved ones
• Identifies how childhood programming through television and media conditions us to accept lower vibrational states of grief and separation

Welcome. Welcome back to Brandon Held. Life is Crazy, and today I have a guest that I'm really excited to talk to because her story is pretty unique. Not unique in the way that she suffered, unfortunately, but unique in how tragedy made her respond, and that really stood out to me and I really wanted to hear the story and I really wanted to get everyone else this story. And her name is Bethany Shelton. Hi, bethany, how are you doing today? Hi, brandon, how are you? I'm doing well. So, if you can't already tell, bethany is just full of life and energy. So we're in for a ride on this podcast, which is great. So, bethany, let's tell everyone you know just a high overview look of yourself and about yourself.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, I mean, you know it's kind of just an ordinary, it's not, it's a extraordinary story. But yeah, I was just where do you even begin, though, Brandon, you know.
Speaker 2:I don't know. Just you know, like, who you are, what you're about.
Speaker 1:Oh my gosh, I don't. This could be like we just had a conversation. This could be like a 10 minute talk just going on to that. But yeah, I am. Bethany is a girl, a female, that has absolutely been through the ups and downs of life. She has absolutely been through the worst of the worst, you know, from being addicted to Adderall and Ritalin as a child. I was drugged as a child with ADD, then to being a mother, and I played soccer and had a great family, and then the tragedy hit. So that's when I discovered I had post-traumatic growth from this tragedy, and so this is how my company was formed, and if you would have told me in 2020, brandon, that this is what I would be doing, I would have told you, brandon, you have lost your ever loving mind. There's no way. So, yeah, that's a little bit about me, you know I like it.
Speaker 2:It's perfect. It's a tease without too much detail and information. So that was well done. I like that. Ok, so let's start with that childhood of yours, you know, because life is crazy, you know. This is why you're perfect for it. Your life has been up and down, like many of us, and that's what we try to discuss here at Life is Crazy. So we let everyone know. You know, whatever you see on social media and all this other crap, you know life isn't perfect for most people. Most people have ups and downs, and so you're not different. You're not alone. We all go through this. So well, I would say the majority, so the great majority.
Speaker 1:What I have found, brandon, is that I have had the most growth through the traumatic and tough times. Absolutely, it was good, it was great. I wasn't able to expand my consciousness, my thought process, my state of being, and when I found that I was constricted and restricted and it was freaking uncomfortable, it was like, oh, that's where I had the most growth of self. So, yeah, I am really excited to share about the. What got me to right here, right now, the present moment, and that was would have to go back to when I was in utero.
Speaker 1:I experienced trauma before I even came into the body, you know, into air. I had my feet over my head for six months, my mom's womb, and then I, as it was coming time to to come out, I was like, oh oh, no, I know what this lifetime is about. Nope, suffering grief, addiction, incarceration all of this, nope. And so I took my head and shoved it through my mother's rib cage and wrapped every inch of my umbilical cord around my neck, and so when they extracted me, I was absolutely black and blue man.
Speaker 1:They didn't know if I was going to make it so that, right, there was a very traumatic experience. Yeah.
Speaker 2:So I have three sons and two of them were born just like that, with their cords around their neck. I remember my I wasn't there for the birth of my first son, I only heard about that. But the second one, I saw him come out and his neck was so floppy and he was all blue and gray, like it scared the crap out of me. I was like, oh my God, what is wrong with my son? But you know, he came out Okay, everything's good. So it all worked out in in the end, but it's scary in the beginning. So, yeah, so when you were young, you know you have this, you know you were came in, you came into the world like I don't want to be here. But you got here. And then you got, you got diagnosed with add right when you were younger. And so how did they treat you with that? What did they do to you?
Speaker 1:yeah, when I was in the third grade. I have two great parents and then I don't know if many of your audiences do they have that one brother or sister. That is the golden child.
Speaker 1:That would be that would be my brother. My brother is. If he's watching this. I love you, slade. But yeah, my, I have a brother that is a golden child that I don't even think this kid's had a speeding ticket. I'm like like what?
Speaker 1:So, anyway, third grade, my parents were the teachers came up to my parents and was like look, we need you to go get Bethany tested. We think she's on the spectrum. So any great parent would do. They went, took me to the psychiatrist. I tested and the psychiatrist was like yep, she's on the spectrum. We were diagnosing her with ADD. They gave my parents two handfuls of prescriptions Adderall and Ritalin, which is now a controlled substance, which is nothing more than amphetamine, which is nothing more than synthetic meth. You know, that's what it boils down to. And so, as I'm going into the fourth grade, my parents gave me this medicine because they thought that the doctors had my best interest at heart.
Speaker 1:Now, brandon, when I tell you, I was drugged out of my mind. I was just a zombie. I didn't play, I didn't talk, I didn't interact, I didn't do anything and I would just sit there, just drugged in my mind. And so I went to my parents and I was like hey, you know this isn't no, I can't do this. And I you know, when you're being made fun of as a kid, that is a traumatic experience. My parents were like no, we still think you need it.
Speaker 1:He started to take the medicine out and spit it out and put it in the garbage. Can I'm like I'm not doing this? I guess my brother might have told off on me. Here's my first mind flip of my life. One day I sat down at the dinner table and I took a bite of a hamburger and I bit into this medicine. And, brandon, when I tell you, I was devastated. I, in that moment, I was like what is wrong with me? Why? You know why. What's wrong with me? Why do I have, why do I have to do this what's? And I just thought that and I bought into that whole program for many years of my life that the only way society and my parents and family would accept me was if I was drugged.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so so, now that you're older and you understand a little bit more, I would classify it is less about you and more about their inability to understand how to deal with you or put up with you, because you were so full of fire and energy and bouncing off the walls, and so it's less about fixing you and more about just what they can't deal with. Wouldn't you think that's fair?
Speaker 2:M me into what society, what, yeah, what put me in a box because I was too much yeah, yeah and and that's you know, that's if you try to explain it like that, from I'm trying to do what's best for you as mike, right, that sounds justifiable and reasonable, but I don't fully believe that's why people do it. I I believe they just can't deal with the energy in the you know personality and and it's a little selfish on their part too, because they want to tame you so it's less work for them.
Speaker 1:That's my personal opinion you know, in my personal belief because this happened later on into my life I got in a car wreck and doctors over medicated me with opioids and all of that with like high dose and I found in my own personal life and what I have witnessed and what I have experienced, that the medical industry did not have my best interest.
Speaker 2:It was all about profit it was all of drugs.
Speaker 1:It was all about profit. It was all about drugs, because if the pharmaceuticals go down, then if there's a healthy client, then there would be no pharmaceuticals.
Speaker 2:Pharmaceuticals are in no trouble. The problem is kickbacks. Doctors get from pharmaceuticals. That's the real problem.
Speaker 1:That's what I think with that doctor.
Speaker 2:Yeah for sure. So we could get into a whole full show on just that topic alone. I mean, hell, I could just between talking about doctors getting kickbacks from pharmaceuticals and elected government officials getting kickbacks for you know the way they should vote, and all that, and those are just those two topics alone I can sit here for hours and talk about, but we're not going to all that. Just those two topics alone I could sit here for hours and talk about, but we're not going to do that. We're going to stick to your life and your story and so, okay, so you were fighting the prescription that they were prescriptions. They were putting you under because you didn't like how they made you feel. Obviously your family felt it was more necessary, so much so they were trying to sneak it to you as you got older. Did you like later teen years? Did you go along with it? Did you completely fight it?
Speaker 1:when I bit into that pill, bre Brendan, like I said before, it was a mind flip for me. I became some what's the word? Aggressive. I was angry, I was pissed, because what is wrong with me? Why do they feel? Why are they not listening to me? What? And I was just like, okay, if you think I'm a problem now, you ain't seen shit, how old were you at this time? This time I was nine or 10.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay, so this was preteen years.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, oh, I was funny, I was something serious All right, so you were fighting it.
Speaker 2:So you just basically fought it your whole teen years pretty much.
Speaker 1:Yes, and so my parent, my family, my parents were like she's got all of this. Uh, you know energy and aggression. Let's put her in soccer. And I'm gonna tell you what, brandon, I love that sport. That sport absolutely did wonders for me, and I at the time. Yeah, at the time I was attending one of the largest schools in the state of Tennessee and my freshman year I tried out for the soccer team and I made the varsity pick a starter at that and I was like ah yes. Yeah, pretty awesome, pretty awesome.
Speaker 2:No, I see that to me is more of a good use of what you've got going on than just trying to sedate you, which is what they were trying to do before, than just trying to sedate you, which is what they were trying to do before. I'm a huge believer in. You know fitness and athletics and how it's good great for your mental health and just everything it does for you in life. And I could get into the details of that because you know I was a personal trainer for 15 years. I've been someone that played sports and has lifted weights virtually my entire life, so I know a lot about that stuff. But I don't really talk about that stuff on my show. But I will just say athletics and fitness are insanely important for your mental health and life. I cannot state that enough.
Speaker 1:I cannot say that Especially for you know, I was, I'm gen x, so back in the you know, 90, 80s and 90s, we didn't have video games. The only thing we could do is go outside and play sport with neighborhood. You know, get, get into sports at school functions. That's we, that's what we did it's just different.
Speaker 2:you know, know, I have, you know, my two older sons. They're very bookwormish, if you will, not a lot of, not a lot of energy. You know. They're low key, like me. I'm low key, low energy, right. But my 15 year old son, he's high energy, like you, and so he, while he does love video games, he still works out. He likes to play sports. You know he is much more athletic because he has all this energy to work with. So I think you got to let people be who they are and support that.
Speaker 1:You know that's amazing that you say that, brandon, because my son Kevin, he was the same way Now when I tell you I had told Kevin at a young age that son, books can take you places that a suitcase can't.
Speaker 1:And he took that and ran with it, brandon, he absolutely studied and read everything and I hear he's talking to me right now. You know I call him. He's the biggest nerd that I know and that's a little laughing joke that him and I still have and this kid would like he didn't even video games and books, man, it wasn't like, yeah, but with friends and he loved his motorcycles and it's just amazing at the studies that this kid did, man yeah quantum physics, quantum mechanics, quantum entanglement, energy, sound vibration I know you want to get into who he is and what he's about and I want to build up to that for you.
Speaker 2:So let's get into your adult life. So what happened after you left school and you were out on your own? How did that go?
Speaker 1:well, believe it or not, you know, I graduated high school and I was a hooters girl all right, yeah, I was a hooter for years, for two years, and then I met kavin's dad down in miami and he was a professional drag racer. And so I moved from nashville to a little bitty town in the middle of nowhere culture shock and very much, and so I gave birth to our one and only child, kevin, in 2000. And that's where it all began.
Speaker 2:Okay, All right. So all right. That was pretty early in your young adulthood that all this went down. So, as you're a mother and you're and you're helping your son grow, how are you doing with your, your ADD and stuff like that? Like, how's that going for you?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I still had a. I went from ADD from those meds, Then I went to other narcotics, I went to drinking and then I got in a car wreck and then I got put on prescription medications that now, when I told you previously they overmedicated me, and when I mean overmedicated, they gave me oxymorphone, hydromorph stuff. That is just. I don't even know how I was walking.
Speaker 1:I don't even know how I was walking. But once again, they told me that I needed this, that you know they. They were trying to get me. Well, and lo and behold, I was just getting sicker.
Speaker 2:I've never talked about this before. When my, when I was a teenager, my mother got into a car wreck. Actually, she was in a huge 70-something Ford LTD. I don't know if you remember those cars, but they were huge right Big car on the ice right and it crushed. She had someone in front of her, so it literally crushed this Ford LTD to the point where only the front seat didn't get smashed, so that car saved her life. However, same thing doctors putting her on just an insane amount of prescriptions right Now. This happened when I was a teenager. I be 52 on august 1st, in a couple weeks. My mom still struggles with prescription drugs.
Speaker 1:it has completely ruined her life yeah, and you know, what is even the worst part about it, brandon, is that I still I had to get go to a doctor to get on a pill, to get off the pills. And then though that doctor, the subutech, and I was like, okay, I can't do this anymore. And so I still think this was six years ago and I still think, if I hadn't took the initiative myself, I went on a November and I got off of them that following September, I made that prescription last me almost a whole year, a one month's prescription, and I just totally weaned myself off of it. I, if I didn't take that step for myself, I think they still would have me on those things today.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah. And that's the thing. Like we've approached my mom and we've said, hey, you know you have a problem and my mom's excuses, I'm just doing what the doctors have prescribed and she's wrong. And she doesn't want to admit she's wrong and she doesn't want to take accountability. But at this point in life, what can I do? It is, it is what it is, she is who she is, and so I just have to let her do what she's going to do. So, all right, so this is where we get to the hard part, right? So you know you're dealing with your demons and the things that you're going through and you're raising this beautiful young boy who's intelligent and cerebral and working hard to learn and do something with his life. And then what happens?
Speaker 1:okay. So it's 2019 and my son graduates high school in 2019 and, of course, we all know what happened in 2019 COVID-19, which Kevin, at right before he graduated, you know they do the ACT, and he scored, like absurdly on the high on the very first time testing, like a 32, and so this is just impressive to me. The military came to him and was like, hey, you scored so well, we've got a test for you. And Kevin was always in the gifted and honors classes. And so they said we have the ASPAC test, we want you to test. And so Kevin was like, oh, yeah, you test, woo nerd. And so he scored, and he scored the top 1% of the top 1%, brandon. And they came to him. They were like, okay, here's the contract, we got you right here, we got you a position as a nuclear physicist. And I said, oh, look at there, kevin, you're going to get to be in the bottom of an aircraft carrier. How fun. And he was like, yeah, mom, not so much. He said if they would have came to me as astrophysicist, I might've, you know, took the offer. So he declined and then he graduated and he got accepted to the University of tennessee and now we're in 2020 and I'm working this little third end job, third shift job, and I'm working one night.
Speaker 1:My manager comes up to me. She's like bethany, I need you to clock out. I was like what? She was like yeah, I need you to clock out. I was like why? She said you've got people out in the parking lot. I'm like it's 2 30 in the morning. There is nobody out in the parking lot for me.
Speaker 1:She's like clock out. I was like all right, so I clock out and I pop the doors open and I walk out and what do I see? I see every single member of my immediate family my mom, my dad, my brother, my sister-in-law and my nephew. And so you know, as I'm approaching, I'm like this is awkward. This is why what in the world are they doing here? So my mom, I walk up to the van and she's like Bethany, I need you to sit down. And I was like okay, so I sat down and she looked at me and she said Bethany, kevin's been killed tonight. Now, when I get to this point I don't care how many times I talk about it I'm literally, it's like a lucid screen and I'm physically right there.
Speaker 2:Understandable.
Speaker 1:Yeah, she said, kevin's been killed. Tonight A man crossed over into his center line, hitting him head on, killing him instantly. And, brandon, the sound of the screen right now I've got my hair on my neck stand up. The sound of the screen that left my body is so foreign to me and it absolutely still just sends a shiver and I collapsed and my brother drives me home and I call Kevin's dad and he's like Bethany, I'm going to come pick you up tomorrow. You know it's time to come home. I was like, yeah, we got to do the thing. Yeah, so he comes and picks me up and we go make the arrangements.
Speaker 1:And it's the day of the funeral and, brendan, I am absolutely. I don't even know how I'm going to do this. I'm in my son's room, I'm on his, on my knees, and I asked God. I said God, please, if you can hear me, please, I need some kind of sign. I don't know if I can continue this. And so I'm walking away from the burial and my best friend of 36 years has my arm and we're walking away and it's a cloudy day and she taps my arm and points up to the sky.
Speaker 1:Brandon, I look up to the sky and in that moment the clouds parted and a rainbow pops through. There's my son and I fell to my knees, I got goosebumps and you know, in that moment, brandon, that was a very pivotal moment for me because I felt something in my body, in my heart, something shifted and I was like, okay, well, that next year. Man, I was, ooh, I was absolutely struggling. I didn't. I ride motorcycles as well, and I'd get on Kevin's motorcycle and I put that helmet on, put Kevin's helmet on and, brandon, I'm just going to be honest with you I thought it would be less painful for me to go 130 miles an hour wrap myself around a tree than it would be to have to wake up another day without my baby.
Speaker 2:For sure, I totally understand that.
Speaker 1:I meant that you know, and I struggled, and. But here's where it gets interesting. You know, and I struggled, but here's where it gets interesting. So one day I am that first year I started to research NDEs, like near-death experiences and this information that I was gathering, dude, it was so like anything I have heard before what these people were coming back and explaining, explaining what they seen, felt, heard, all of it when they crossed over, when they left the body, how they did not want to come back, and I was like wow. So I just really just dove deep. And one day I'm sitting on my couch and I was like, man, darn, I need to go get in the shower. So I go to my bathroom, I pull back my shower curtain, I look down and there's a coin in my shower. Now, I don't know about you, I don't shower with coins.
Speaker 2:Oh, I do all the time.
Speaker 1:I don't know what you're talking about, do you? Yeah, all the time You're that guy. So I picked up the coin and the coin had Kevin's death year on it 2020. And I didn't think anything of it. I just set it to the side. Several days had passed and I get up out of bed and I put my feet on the floor and there's coins. Several days had passed and I didn't think anything. I'm still not putting it down, you know.
Speaker 1:And then I go get out of bed one morning and I make my bed as I normally do, and I come back that night and I pull my sheets back and there's coins. I was like man, this is weird. Several days have passed and I go vacuum my living room and I get everything, it's all clean and I go put the vacuum cleaner up, brandon and I come back in the living room and what is on my freshly vacuumed floors?
Speaker 2:coins.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I would be like who the hell is in my house, like what is going on yeah, and I picked up that coin, brandon, and I looked at it and it had Kevin's birth year on it. I was like, man, this is so damn strange. I called my mom. Mom, man, something's going on, I am finding coins everywhere. She said, bethany, oh my gosh, your father and I, we are finding coins everywhere too. I said what she said. Yeah, she said I think Kevin's trying to communicate with us. I said what, I hung up the phone, I run up to the deck and I was like Kevin man, buddy, if this is you, can you show up for me like a Blue Jay or a Redbird? The very next day, everywhere I turned, there was a Blue Jay or a Robin, a Cardinal and a Robin, and I was like, oh, and that moment, brandon, my, that was my next mind shift. I was like, oh, my God, this kid is trying to communicate with me. What is going on? Yeah, oh, that, but I have cause.
Speaker 2:I'm, I guess, maybe morbid like that, have thought how would I respond if something happened to one of my kids? How would that affect and everything I always keep coming back to? It would devastate me, right. I don't even know if I could go on. That's what I think. You know, it's all obviously just thought process. So when you were feeling the way you were feeling after you know, it's all obviously just thought process. So when you were feeling the way you were feeling after you know his accident, I totally understand that. And then also, what makes that hard is usually when tragedy strikes and we're a parent, we stay strong for our children and help them through whatever tragedy is going on. But at point that was the tragedy, so you really had no one to stay strong for but yourself, and that's a lot harder to do than to stay strong for your children that brings you joy.
Speaker 1:The one thing, that's the one thing in this lifetime that brought me absolute joy was him.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yes, and it sounded like he was a great kid and so obviously a huge loss for you and for the world and saying I'm sorry that this happened. You know it's, it's how I feel inside, but you know it's. I can't really do anything else except think and feel that so I am sorry this happened to you, but what's that?
Speaker 1:here's the great thing I didn't lose anything. I gained so much yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:So that's what we're getting into and that's my that's why I love this story so much in its own tragic way is, even though what happened is an awful tragedy and if you had any power to reverse it, of course you would and you would have him be back here on this earth, I would think yeah, here's the thing is that, what if I chose to have this experience with him before I embodied?
Speaker 1:and this was to this experience of loss, grief, separation was only to further grow my soul's evolution. What if that? So, when you look at it like that, and then when you know, when I deep dove, how this all programming of grief and all of this, and how Kevin brought it to me, you know, this really really really brought it all to home for me. Because when Kevin came to me and he's like mom when I was and he calls his body his concrete shoes, trying to wade through quicksand, he said mom this that is the most dense low vibing thing ever I was like oh
Speaker 1:okay. He said but, mom, when I was in my physical body, we operated on the same frequency. We, you know, we communicated on the same wavelength. I was like, yeah, he said. But when I, you know, transformed and went back to spirit, he said I rose in frequency, vibration. Well, I vibrated at a much higher rate. He said but, mom, when you dropped in grief, blame, shame, guilt, less than not enough, he said, you dropped. He said do you see how much distance there is between there, when I'm all the way up here and you're all the way down here? He said, mom, communications, that's not when you're vibrating that low. And I, I was like, oh, okay, so that's interesting. So when he brought it to me like that, then I started when I get those signs, when I get those coins, when I get those messages, when I get those you know synchronicities, I would get excited. So let me just bring this real quick.
Speaker 1:Mother's Day this year, you know, like all Mother's Days, it kind of, you know, yeah, it's Mother's Day. And I was like, you know, I wasn't in my mind, I wasn't in my mental body, I was, I dropped into my heart. I'm not thinking about, oh, kevin's not here. Oh, you know what am I going to do? The loss, the grief, you know. Am I going to do the loss, the grief, the? You know all of that. No, I was shut this off and I dropped into my heart.
Speaker 1:Now I'm in presence, I am now focused, I'm aware, so I know already that, okay, cabin, hey, buddy, it's mother's day. I need you to show up and show out for me, man, I walk out into my garage and you know we all have electromagnetic field. It precedes us 360 degrees, six feet out in front of us, all the way, 360. Well, I walk out and this beautiful bird comes and lands into three feet into my field. Because I operate in a different frequency waveform. I'm not in my thinking mind, I'm in my heart, and I knew exactly what that bird was in my field, what he was sharing with me. I knew the frequency, I knew the vibration, I knew the energy. I could sense, feel and see it. And it was absolutely magical, because if that bird was not there to share its energy and vibration and frequency with me, he would have landed on a in a different yard, somewhere else. He would not have landed three feet into my field. He was right there to share his energy and his vibration with me and man. It was absolutely wonderful and.
Speaker 1:I still like right now I'm getting so excited because I can still sense, feel and see him in there and it was just awesome, man, awesome.
Speaker 2:What's lucky or I don't know if lucky is the right word but just the fact that you are open to these experiences being real and being what they are for you, because many people would be closed off to this and this would never occur, because they would just think, oh, that's not a thing. So the fact that you can do that and you're open to that is amazing and incredible, and it's obviously allowed you to stay in touch with him and live your best life at this point, and so so you started the Be Limitless. Now Tell everyone what that's about.
Speaker 1:Wow, be Limitless. Now is a company that was pretty much not forced but guided to me through my teams and my son. Now this is what we're doing. Mom and I was like we're doing what? And he was like yep. So it's interesting, because one night I was woken up at 333 in the morning, brandon, and I was told go outside onto your deck. I do, I went outside and I'm just sitting there All of a sudden, a golden orbed being flies down the 13 acre lake of mine and in this moment I felt an energy, a frequency, a vibration that was so compassionate, that was so much love, that was so magical that it absolutely started to change something in me. I don't know if I got a download, an upgrade.
Speaker 2:I don't know.
Speaker 1:But it was. You know, all of my senses have been like absolutely turned on to max capacity and it's just absolutely amazing. So, yeah, this company was formed directly, I feel, from source. God, however you want to label that, gave me this experience so I can help lead other. And it doesn't have to be grief of a lost loved one other. It doesn't have to be grief of a lost loved one. It can be grief of a pet, grief of a parent, grief of a job, grief of your, you know, failed relationship.
Speaker 1:whatever we all grieve in different ways and those are all losses of some sort. Yeah, and you know, and once and I, so I work with clients and I go in, cause I can see, like, like, even with you on this computer, I can see your electromagnetic field, I can see what's in your field, I can see your aura, I can see all of that. And so I go in and gather the energetic blocks, cords, tethers that are bound, that is, keeping the energetic flow, your toroidal field, you know, and I go in and I pull it out. You know, and I go in and I pull it out, I cancel, cut and clear it and all space, place, time, dimension, density, reality, parallel reality, omniverse, multiverse, universe, and man, my clients wouldn't.
Speaker 2:That's when the magic happens so I gotta be a little selfish here. What's my aura telling you?
Speaker 1:yeah, your aura. You know what you've got the heart. That is absolutely magnetic you have got a heart that is absolutely spot on and you've got like a greenish, bluish hay around you. It's very magnetic, magnetic.
Speaker 2:I like it oh cool, thank you. I think I'm a good person with a big heart, but you know that's how I feel about myself. We all, we all don't always feel about ourselves what everyone else thinks about us, we all were programmed with grief at such a young age.
Speaker 1:You know we as children, from zero to seven, we operate on a brain wavelength of theta right.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Now children from the zero to seven intake information not of logic, but through visual and audio on repetition, to get a feeling right. Sure, Okay, I've got a great question for you. What is one thing that we all have in our homes? Every one of us that? What would you say that we all have in common growing up and even now?
Speaker 2:well, you mean personality wise.
Speaker 1:No, no, what is a one device that we all have in our home that we used when we were kids, all the way up until now?
Speaker 2:I would say like a couch okay, guess what a tv?
Speaker 1:right, I would say a tv sure yeah, well, guess what a tv is? A tv is a tell vision.
Speaker 1:It is telling you a vision through visual and audio, on repetition to get a feeling yeah, yeah so children from the ages of zero to seven, how many of us sat down in front of a tell a vision? We? We turned on the tv, located our channel to find our programming. Yeah, I know, I did and I did this to my son. Guess what programming that operates in all lower aspects of frequency that we all watch as children? What's that? And christmas, holiday movies. And these are all lower aspects of grief, separation, lost pain, blame, shame.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, almost all Disney movies start with some type of tragedy or have a tragedy in them somewhere.
Speaker 1:Oh, I've got a whole list for you here brother Onion, king, dumbo Spirit, frozen, finding Nemo, brother Bear, bambi, tarzan, meet the Robinsons, cinderella, I can go on rudolph, snow, beauty, the beast, tom and jerry. Now you just think on it as we've gotten older. What do we do? Now? We tune into the media the news we're all gonna die. You know, all of this is all lower aspects of frequency and when we vibrate on these lower aspects of frequency we constrict and restrict on ourselves and we weren't taught the higher ends of gratefulness, love, compassion. We weren't taught those higher frequencies.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yes, those are something definitely lacking in our society and something I had to learn to save my life and save my soul and who I've become. It's all my fault, yeah, yeah. And don't even get me started on the media and their sensationalism and the divisiveness that they're causing our world. It's awful. Nobody knows what's real or true anymore. You literally, if you find one thing that's being said, you'll find something else that's telling you the exact opposite. So there's just nothing that you just know that's true anymore. It just becomes a matter of a belief system what we choose to believe and decide to believe, because anyone can have a counter argument or even supporting detail information to counter what you believe. So who knows what's real and what's true anymore?
Speaker 1:Yeah, once I'm, once I deep dove all of that. It just absolutely it blows my mind. I won't get into it here on this podcast right now, but it you know it's no, it's a, it's a pretty, it's pretty dark yeah, it's great.
Speaker 2:So you have, you created your lower aspects, master class, the grief to growth experience, and you have a seven-day journal tool transmuting pain into purpose. And how can people reach you and reach this information if they are going through any type of loss?
Speaker 1:really, and they would just love your help man, if any of what we've talked about this afternoon, this evening, has resonated and you feel some, contact me. Let's have a conversation.

Speaker 1:Or you can find me on, be Limitless Now at TikTok.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so you have TikTok also, okay, great. Yeah, I don't really do the TikTok thing, I'm only doing Instagram right now. I was off all social media, so let me be clear about that, and I only restarted it just because of my podcast, to be more out there.
Speaker 1:I get it because I was not on social media, you know, until just a few years ago. So I totally as I was, you know, collaborating, getting all this information together to get this company up and going. I just didn't identify with it, but now it's just like okay, this is a great way to get out and market and try to reach people that I can assist and help.
Speaker 2:Yeah, as long as I can avoid the noise of all the other bad things that are on social media and try to stick to the relationships that I'm forming here, you know, cause I'm doing a lot of following of my guests and they're following me back, and so I'm trying to stay in that world instead of all the other garbage that's on social media, but be limitless. Now I will put that link in the description of this podcast, and so, as we draw this to a close, as we draw this to an end, if someone came to you and said what is the one greatest, best piece of advice you could give to people, what would that be?
Speaker 1:The best piece of advice I could give is you hold all the answers. Go within, love yourself, nurture yourself. No one can love you more than you. And you know, just be the ripple effect. If you want to see a change, be the change.
Speaker 2:That's great advice. As someone who is a life coach, I couldn't agree with you more, because in life coaching, we don't give you the answers. We help you provide your own answer. So that's great advice.
