Podcasts about zero tolerance policy

https://enlighteninglife.com/may-2025-energy-report/As I have said in the past, May is a month whose name poses a statement or a question – I Ma ! or May I? – in which we can either ask for permission or make a bold and direct intention. Consider the difference in how you approach a choice you have to make. Do you state your intention boldly and clearly or ask those around you whether they think it's a good idea? In May we have bold energy that can inspire action that is aligned with our deepest intention if we have the courage to make clear statements of direction instead of waiting for the right moment.This is going to be a powerful and interesting month and traditionally May is known as the month in which the flowers bloom and that is what is happening in my garden. After 7 years of work, my garden is finally settling in and blooming beautifully. Gardening is an exercise in patience, work, trial and error, and negotiation.If you put plants in the wrong place, they won't thrive.If things change in the garden – like my neighbor's two trees that fell into my yard 3 years ago during a strong storm, knocking down 2 of my trees and completely changing the light landscape, you have to rework your garden layout.Some plants just don't grow;, others, like day lilies, cannas, and irises, grow so much that you have to thin them out every few years or they will take over your garden completely, choking out and stifling everything else.If you don't like where certain plants are, you have to dig them out and place them somewhere else.This is what May is going to be like. We have been on the ascension path for decades and now that we are coming to the fork in the road, a pivot point, it is time for us to take an inventory of our energetic resources and make sure that they are placed where we can grow and thrive.Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2025 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

Whenever we bring the Maryland Krab Kake Tour to Koco's Pub, we recruit our lifer pal and sage sports cartoonist Ricig as the Ko-Host to sort of the world of Baltimore news and views. This week, we attempt to make sense of the Orioles' pitching and the Ravens' zero tolerance policy. The post Our sports cartoonist Ricig attempts to make sense of Orioles pitching and Ravens zero tolerance policy with Nestor first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

https://enlighteninglife.com/april-2025-energy-reportDon't get too comfy thinking that March is over and you can relax because April is another action filled month and we also have to deal with the fallout from the March eclipses and energy moves and shifts. We're still in Aries season so action is the theme even with Mars in Cancer, chugging towards Leo and its upcoming showdown with Pluto (again) which happens in April. And we have a few more action elements in April that come into play so keep your intentions high and your lights bright because this is a stand up, show up, and lights up month.April is a 4 month in numerology as April is the 4th month and 2025 is a 9 year, 4 + 9 = 13 and 1 + 3 = 4. 4 is the number of stability, completion, and closure. It represents security, knowledge, confidence, and structure. There are 4 cardinal directions – East, West, North, and South, and 4 elements in the earth – Earth, Wind, Air, Fire. Think of 4 legs on a table or a chair, 4 wheels on a car. A square has 4 sides and it can be a box to stand on so we can rise above to the next level or a prison that keeps us penned in. With the 1 and 3 of this month's 4 vibe, we can take the creative energy of March and take action in a balanced and stable way. No rushing out of the starting gate so typical of Aries, this is considered, measured, purposeful action, aligned with our intention.The downfall of the 4 is being too rigid and stable, set in their ways, stubborn, and unchangeable. 4 is at its worst when it is trying to be all things to all people, scattering resources, and lacking focus. Those are the elements that can make April a challenging month for some, especially those who get overwhelmed by all of the energy and try to hide out or stay the same because they fear change.April begins with the energy of March resonating very loudly – the entry of Neptune into Aries and the March 29 eclipse. Those two events have long term effects so just because we are in a new month doesn't mean they go away. That just creates an energy signature for April. On April 7 Mercury goes direct and on April 12 Venus goes direct. Then the big event of April (one of them anyway) is Mars going into Leo (again) on April 17 and engaging in its ‘power to the people' moment with Pluto as it did in most of December and January. And that isn't all because in June Mars will be in Aquarius, meeting up with Pluto again. Then the Mars/Pluto connections will be over for the rest of the year.Before we continue with the rest of the month's details I have to share something funny with you. I was thinking about all of the release work and shifting we have had to do as we choose between our ascension path and our karma because they really are not on the same plane. We have to decide where we are going to focus our energy. The problem is that avoiding the karma path means doing so much release work (note that I did not say ‘forgiveness' work) that it can be exhausting and discouraging.How can we engage in that level of release work and move forward? Then I thought of goats, that we have to be more like goats. If you know anything about them, goats are remarkable animals. They are smart, nimble, can jump very high, and scale the highest peaks. Goats are ruminants, like cows, and they have a voracious appetite. Goats will eat anything, and a lot of it. They will clear out the weeds, brambles, and anything green in a large space in a matter of hours. They have thick skin that even the toughest thorns cannot pierce and one of their favorite foods is poison ivy.How do goats manage to eat so much? Because they have an extremely fast metabolism and they ‘poop' as they eat. If you hire a herd of goats to do pasture or field clearing, something that has become very popular in recent years, they will clear out the weeds and any greenery and fertilize the field at the same time. They are the epitome of the saying ‘food goes in one end and out the other' and it happens quickly with them.So if we are like goats we assess situations, consider our choices, and make our decisions to release as we move along. We do not need to spend days or weeks considering a move that we know could have happened months or years ago. The behavior we see in people now is probably no different than anything they have done for a very long time. We are seeing it from a different perspective today but they have not changed. Our choice involves whether we want that behavior in our life right now and that answer is usually no.The energy theme of April is Reconstruction but this is more like the phoenix rising from the ashes than trying to salvage the bricks from your old house to build your new house. If parts of your life have not been totally decimated since January, you may not be paying attention or you have already gone through that process in the past 5 plus years. If they have, count yourself lucky because it's time to rebuild from a new blueprint.Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2025 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/march-2025-energy-report/March is a welcome relief from the challenging 11 energy of February. As I said in the February Energy Report, the 11 number is the spiritual initiate path and it is always challenging because we have to face our own shadows and deal with where we have been sabotaging our joy, limiting our energy, and not taking care of our needs. That awareness can be shocking and unsettling when we realize that our inability to say no, to want to get acknowledgment, and to not protect our interests is what has allowed us to become the targets for the critics, judges, toxic people, and chaos in our life.But it's time for a change and some creative being, thinking, and doing and March brings that energy into our sphere now. March is a 3 numerology (March is the 3rd month and 2025 is a 9, 3 + 9 = 12, 1 + 2 =3) and that is the number of creativity, companionship, positivity, and new connections. It's also a number that encourages more energetic integration, congruence, and learning to see ourselves as multi-dimensional beings in a multi-dimensional world. We're seeing more of that with this ascension cycle now, and this month will bring that to the forefront.March is also the end of the solar year as the Equinox on March 20 is the 0 Aries point and the beginning of a new year. While January 1 begins our calendar year, March 20 is the start of the astrological year and that is when the new year was celebrated for many millennia. This year the Equinox is a big Alpha Omega Portal, encompassing the entire zodiac from 0 Aries to 29 Pisces with all of the planets and signs represented in some form. It's a fantastic way to start our solar year with the full chorus of the universe supporting us.In March we continue the spiritual cornucopia I have been writing about for several months now with a big presence in Pisces that will see up to 7 planets and points in that sign. The expander, Jupiter, is going to make that aspect much more all-encompassing now and bring three things forward:How we interact with our spiritual energyHow we express our spiritual energyHow we use our spiritual energy in our lives especially for release and transformation, and entering our new 5D portals.And we can't forget Mars in Cancer is also going to encourage us to take action from our spiritual energy but not by becoming more spiritual. Instead, Mars wants us to use our spiritual energy to become more energetically integrated and empowered in the actions we are willing to take and to avoid getting caught up in our emotions. I know astrologers talk about Mars energy being diluted in Cancer but while that is not its best position, it is also making a strong positive aspect to all of the Pisces planets and that is helpful. And in Cancer Mars is focused on emotional energy, which is our biggest and most challenging life lesson.Read the rest of this article on the website at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2025 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/useful-useless-energy/21 years ago this month I published my first newsletter. I had answered a call from Archangel Uriel a few months earlier to take on a spiritual mission and although I really thought it would be for about 6 months, here we are entering year 22. It has been a wild, usually rewarding, always exciting, and often unpredictable ride, and I am looking forward to as many more years as this journey lasts.When I first began writing the messages were the same as they are now, in a slightly different context because this was new information and people were not always ready for it. I talked about energy mastery, congruence, releasing our karmic bonds, spiritual empowerment, and energetic sovereignty. In the over 5000 articles, more than a dozen books, hundreds of programs teaching over 2 million students, over 3000 hours of radio shows, live broadcasts, and podcasts that I have written and hosted, I have connected with millions of people around the world and touched countless lives. I could not be more proud of my work, more committed to my mission, or more honored by the opportunity to serve you, then and now.Every step of our ascension journey has been a mix of challenges and blessings, joy and sorrow, peace, and absolute chaos. We have been through a lot this past 21 years and the journey is not over yet but we are reaching another crossroads and this time the spotlight is on us. That might make you uncomfortable if you do not like being center stage but it is time for us to focus on our journey now, on what gives us joy and what brings us peace, fulfillment, and achievement. And on what uplifts, energizes motivates, and inspires us.We have graduated from light work to light beacon, and we are moving into that 5D space of pure creation with our lessons learned, karmic ties unraveled and released, and new intentions at the ready.As I wrote in the February 2025 Energy Report, “throughout the past 20 plus years we have been the light workers, now we are the light beacons. We have been the Martyred Healers, now we are the Empowered Masters. We have been the Portal Keepers and energy anchors, now we are the pioneers who are creating our 5D communities and new energetic families.”And we are standing at the threshold of our new 5D realities, knowing that there is no turning back because there probably is nothing to turn back to. If your past is a barren landscape of ended friendships and partnerships, unmet expectations, and sheer fatigue from doing lifetimes of healing work, you're ready to step into that 5D portal but you have one more thing to do.Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2025 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

In this powerful sermon, we will explore God's unwavering stance of zero tolerance against evil and disobedience, emphasizing that He has set a standard of holiness and righteousness that must not be compromised. Drawing from Scripture, we will examine how God's justice and mercy go hand in hand, and how His zero tolerance policy for sin is both a call to repentance and a reminder of His love for truth and righteousness. We will delve into the story of God's dealings with His people—both in the Old and New Testaments—and how He has continually called His people to a higher standard, urging them to turn away from wickedness and disobedience. But while God's anger is kindled against sin, His grace is equally present, offering redemption to those who turn to Him with sincere hearts. This sermon will challenge you to evaluate your own life and examine areas where you may be tolerating sin or disobedience. It will also inspire believers to live in alignment with God's Word, embracing His call to holiness in every aspect of life.

https://enlighteninglife.com/february-2025-energy-report/it's the first month in decades that does not have some kind of Capricorn presence, and because it's our time to shift gears, go in a different direction, and move ourselves into new paradigms of potential. If the past 20 years and even last month showed you who was on your side and who was not, you now know who your enemies, frenemies, and true friends are and there's no going back to the old ways of being and doing.We begin with February's numerology, which is an 11 month (2 + 2024 = 11). Now this breaks down to a 2 but 11 is the first master number and any month that is a master number deserves special attention because there will be lessons and learning, trials and challenges, and new pathways to forge. In 2024 we have two 11 months, November is the other one.This month is highly charged with spiritual energy, the 5D portals are wide open, high vibe energy is pouring in and we're highly receptive after January's energy cleanup. I had a particularly challenging month in January, did you? I thought it was particularly difficult and then realized that sneaky Mercury was in Capricorn, doing the final clean-up work from Pluto's 16 year transit there. Mercury is the karma overseer so its presence in Capricorn from January 6 to 30 was helping us tie up those loose ends. And it was tough, as Mercury transits can be. The good news is that Mercury does not spend any more time in Capricorn this year.As if to reward us for our hard work in January , February opens with a Venus Neptune conjunction in Pisces, one of the most beautiful and spiritual of all planetary aspects. It doesn't get much better than this. This sets the stage for the energy in February so let's make the most of it.Read the rest of this article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2025 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

Contributing writer Jake Fogleman and I discuss new claims from the gun industry about the ATF continuing to enforce its controversial "zero tolerance" policy despite Trump's promises to reverse it. We talk about Trump's lack of gun policy action so far and why some gun-rights groups are starting to speak out. We also cover a significant new ruling out of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals where a three judge panel just struck down the federal handgun sales ban for young adults.

https://enlightenglife.com/january-2025-energy-report/Since we ended 2024 with a strong Capricorn new moon on December 30, we enter 2025 on a high note, sort of. The year began with the echoes of a new moon representing fresh starts, new actions, bold moves, and beginnings. At least we do not have Pluto in Capricorn to deal with any longer but we still have a strong energy aspects to start this new month and new year. A lot is happening this month with Mars returning to Cancer, Mercury transiting that sign, the nodes changing sign to Pisces, the end of a 19 year cycle, and a big Pisces stellium which last happened in 1989.It is going to be a good year for putting new plans and projects in place, for finally creating the transformations you have wanted to create for so long, and for coming to terms with your truth and your light. And it starts in January so let's sit up, pay attention, take notes, and ask the right questions.January opens with the echo of the December 30 Capricorn new moon which featured strong oppositions – planets at 180 degrees and most importantly, a Mars/Pluto opposition from Leo to Aquarius. I call this a ‘power to the people' moment which started in November 2024 and will last through April 2025. It is not going to go away quickly and it will have a profound effect on society and culture all over the world. Watch what happens as people rise up against the 3D energies of corruption, control, domination, power over, separation, competition, and disconnection from spirit.This new moon in Capricorn is not a rehash of the past 16 years of that tough Pluto transit, it is a new energetic boundary reminding us of where we have come and what we do not want to repeat. I see it as a 4D bridge activation, creating a space of awareness of where we began in 3D and shining a strong light across that bridge to new levels of joy, peace, love, abundance, and prosperity.The 5D portal is wide open now so there are options available and choices to be made and many, many people are choosing the light. The first Pluto in Capricorn transit opened the portal to self-sovereignty. The latest one opened the portal to energetic sovereignty. We are energetically sovereign, aware, and ready for action. We know this, now we have to live our lives within this understanding.You can read the rest of the article on the blog page at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2025 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

This month of change, transformation, opportunities, possibilities, and fresh starts begins appropriately with a new moon. Yes December 1 is a new moon in Sagittarius that highlights our mercury retrograde. But don't let that bring you down because there is a lot of good in these aspects and all month we will be pulled between the past and the future with a foot in both worlds. There are choices to be considered and decisions to be made and this time, it's all about us, our needs, our path, and what brings us joy.December 2024 is an 11 month, 12 + 2024 = 3 + 8 = 11. This is a fitting end to not just a difficult year but a difficult cycle that began in January 2008 with Pluto's entry into Capricorn. Little did we know, until a few years ago, what that would become. Pluto does its work with gusto and it didn't disappoint. Now that we know where the darkness is, it's time to bring in the light.11 is the first master number, the number of the initiate. I first wrote about our lives as a spiritual initiation in early 2004, one of my first newsletter articles. You can read about it in my book, Ascending into Miracles – the Path of Spiritual Mastery. And if you read Planet Lightworker Magazine, they published my Path of Spiritual Initiation series that year too. 20 years later, here we are talking about it again.Initiation is a journey of learning, growth, and expansion. It isn't just about the lessons but what we do with the experience. Do we move forward or go back? Do we rise or fall? Are we victims or victors? We have all struggled and suffered during this time, no one escapes the journey's lessons but what do we do with the information? That's what will propel us forward in the coming months and years.With December's strong 11 vibration our entire month becomes an ascension mirror. So keep that in mind as we go through the month. And at the last month of the year, when we look back on the past and look forward to the future, let this energy guide you to the most fruitful, fulfilling, joyful choices.The energy theme for December is Revision, which can be interpreted several ways. To Revise something is to change its message, to alter what it looks and sounds like, to take an old narrative and edit it to make it more appealing, correct, fitting, or accurate.To re-vision is to see with new eyes and a new perspective. When we re-vision something we decide that we will look at it in new ways. The truth is subjective, we know that. If you have ever played the post office game, you know how information and facts can get distorted. Listen to the podcast for an example of this.If we decide to re-vision our lives we change our perspective on what we believe we saw or interpreted. Yes something may have been painful or hurtful but was that deliberate? Yes we may have hoped for the best in a situation but were we seeing the situation as it was? And this extends to re-visioning our own vision of ourselves. We have limited our vision of ourselves for far too long and we need all of our lights on to shine brightly now.We can do both this month, we can revise our intention, path, purpose, and mission and use our ability to re-vision our lives lets us see it with new eyes. Many years ago I wrote that we have sight but no vision. We need our eyes, our 3D sight, to see the reality but we need 5D vision to see that reality with a new perspective, a new understanding, and to be open to new potentials and possibilities.We see with our eyes but we perceive and understand with our perception and understanding. How we interpret the world is fully determined by how we choose to use our sight and what we choose to see.Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.comAnd find the Peau D'ange Skin Care products at femmeforcenow.com - and get your free beauty guide Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/pluto-in-aquarius/We experienced a major turning point in the 3D/5D ascension integration, the entry of Pluto into Aquarius. Now Pluto does change signs every 15 to 20 years so this is another Pluto transit but it is more than that. With Pluto in Capricorn since January 2008 we had a front row experience of 3D and it was not a pretty sight. Especially in the last 5 years, from 2019, we have seen the worst of 3D, had the most dense energy of 3D exposed, and we have lived to talk about it.Now we are on a new trajectory, we have more support for our ascension path, and we have new portals and new energies to work with. Pluto in Aquarius will be another level of the ‘age of enlightenment, which is what the previous Aquarius transit was called, which happened from 1778 to 1798. Pluto will be in Aquarius until 2044 so we have a lot of time to work with this energy.Aside from being extremely transformative, Pluto transits are generational, so an entire generation is affected by the energy it brings, in Aquarius this energy is far different from Capricorn and we can expect a lot of growth, awareness, transformation, and movement now.Some of the major transformations I see as possible are:Further dis-integration of the 3D paradigm meaning more exposure of the corruption, collusion, control, and counter humanity activities. Everything from corporatism to the attempt to create human robots will be exposed. And people are no longer willing to tolerate these incursions on their lives, rights, and liberties. An awakened population is empowered with the 5d energies of cooperation, collaboration, community, connection, and creativity.A greater desire for fulfillment in life, on all levels. If you remember the consumerism of the 1980s and 1990s welcome to the simplicity of 2025 and beyond. We have all of the stuff, now we want peace, joy, love, and true wealth of heart, mind, and spirit.More attention to self fulfillment, self awareness, and community. We no longer want to live apart, separated from our energetic collective. We want our energetic family and friends, we want to build communities and live in harmony with each other and with the other. Have you noticed how many people are interested in the home made and hand made movement now? Activities that were once labeled as vintage and old fashioned, like cooking, canning, gardening, farming, and animal husbandry and now in vogue.More political activity but not politicking. We have seen what political laziness has accomplished, as our world was nearly stolen from us while we watched reality tv, played video games, or binged on Netflix. Even if you are not interested in running for political office, being energetically engaged in our world and the reality we live in is now an imperative. We must be intentional creators, aware of how we are using our energy and fully engaged with our energy.Read the rest of the article on the blog Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/november-2024-energy-report/It is quite fitting that the numerology of November this year is a 1 because it is a new cycle and a new beginning in a very historic way. As you know, because it has been the topic of conversation for many months, this is the month when Pluto enters Aquarius where it will stay until 2044. How old will you be when Pluto finally leaves Aquarius for Pisces? I will be in my mid 80s. A sobering thought.Pluto is a generational planet with its long transits of up to 20 years so its movements are slow, deliberate, and mark important social changes. Since the previous Pluto in Aquarius transit was from 1777 to 1798, no one alive today has any idea of what that transit looks like but we can estimate the potential by noting that the previous transit of Pluto in Aquarius was called the Age of Enlightenment. And at that time Neptune was in Virgo, opposite its current placement in Pisces, and at nearly the same degree. That's a very good sign for what may come with our current Pluto in Aquarius transit.In its 1762 to 1777 Capricorn transit, Pluto was responsible for the dissolution of the monarchy rule and the introduction of the concept of individual sovereignty. In 2008 to 2024, it has challenged the corporatocracy and government tyranny and solidified our entry into the domain of energetic sovereignty. This is where we are today.So as Pluto enters Aquarius for the next 20 years remember that it supports us on our 5D integration path. There is a lot of potential for global change and a lot is at stake, as you know. We are also faced with a twisted agenda of the dissolution of the human spirit and energy and the creation of trans-humanism, a devious attempt to connect our brains and energy systems to machines, creating the ‘internet of things'.Yes this is a real thing and if you do not know about it you should because while it sounds like something out of a sci fi movie, it is a real agenda that has been in place for many decades. Its completion is supposed to happen sometime between 2025 and 2030. Now you know why these years are so important in the global tyranny agenda.So that's where we are in this month as we enter a new 9 year numerology cycle, a new generational cycle, and we are at the cusp of either enlightenment or annihilation. And that is not overstating the seriousness of the issues we face today. But as I always say, light always overtakes the darkness so keep shining your lights and managing your energy field, energy boundaries, and maintaining your energy sovereignty.Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/conspirationHave you ever awakened in the morning with a word or a song on your mind and you think about it all day? A few days ago I woke up with the word conspiration' on my mind and I had to look it up because I did not think it was a real word. It is. It means joint effort, shared action, and harmonious effort.' Yes it is derived from the word conspire from which we also get the word conspiracy, which has come to mean something devious and deceptive thanks to the efforts of devious and deceptive 3 letter agencies starting in the 1960s.Conspiration means joint effort and the word conspire really means to be in the same spirit or with the same breath. So conspirators are breathing together, they share the same spirit, they act in harmony with shared effort. It makes you rethink the true nature of ‘conspiracy theorists.'For the past 20 years I have been teaching about the Universe as our co-creator, our partner in manifestation, our source of energy that fulfills our intention. The universe supplies the energy that we need to manifest and it has always been this way. Even though we think the Universe is in control, that it leads and we follow, that is actually backwards. We lead with our intention and the Universe follows up with the energy to fulfill it. We are always in charge and in control.It is a very synergistic relationship because without energy our intention cannot manifest but without intention the Universe cannot use its energy. We are energy containers or vessels, and the Universe is our energy supplier.A client once asked me how this worked because he could not understand it. For him, it was a what came first, the chicken or the egg argument. I said not at all, it's like a lamp and a lightbulb. Both are capable of working independently but a lamp is useless without a light bulb and a light bulb is useless without a lamp. He got it.If we look at our relationship with the Universe just in terms of creating our reality or in keeping the earth on an even keel to balance light and dark energies, we are underplaying the vast potential of this relationship.If you think of this relationship in terms of conspiration, the possibilities are endless. Think of conspiration as an agreement to create reality, give energy an opportunity to manifest as form, to fulfill the promise of ascension, to create heaven on earth. A conspiration requires harmonious effort, shared purpose, and a common intention.And each one of us has this ability. We can each create a conspiration with the universe when we set intentions because they are the energy container the Universe needs to set energy in motion.read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

It's Karma Time !We have a strong full moon on October 17, 2024, and this one has karma written all over it. Of course if you have not been sending out any karma boomerangs you don't have anything to worry about. But if you have, you might want to start being careful and looking over your shoulder.There are people in the world who don't care about the consequences of their actions. In fact, they think that their actions should not have any consequences at all and they can do whatever they want without fear of reprisal. I have known people like that, some of them have done some really awful things to me. And today I learned that one of them got the karma boomerang in a very strong way.Since I began my online business in early 2004 I have had problems with people stealing content. This is a real problem for any author or content creator and the internet has just made it 1000x worse. And you have unprofessional, unethical, and uneducated people who seem to populate the coaching world, especially business coaching, who think that the internet is a ‘content buffet' that they can just help themselves to at any time they want.They don't have the credentials to create original content, no problem. They will just steal it from someone who does. They aren't creative enough to generate consistent content for their audience, no problem, they will find someone who has content they like and they will use theirs.This is not just happening with small accounts, it is happening with popular and well known people too. In fact, I am currently initiating copyright infringement actions against a well known ‘digital course' leader who has been stealing content from me for 2 years – I have proof – and who should know better. If you say you have a $100 million business you should be able to create your own content and not steal it from someone else.But I digress.If you have been following me for the past 10 years you know that one of these content thieves is a former business coach named Christine Kane. I first learned about her content theft, which by the way is copyright infringement and theft of intellectual property, in October 2014 when she announced her new ‘Becoming 360' program which was entirely stolen from articles and programs I had created in 2013. I have proof. So I sent her a Cease and Desist letter telling her that she could not use that content because she had not created it.Not only did she not reply to me, but she also continued to use it and called it one of her ‘most successful programs.' I hired a lawyer to take legal action against her and she still did not stop stealing my content. In fact, she stole more. I also found out, while doing the research for my lawyer to prepare the case against her, that she had started stealing content from me in 2011. I could find my words and ideas all over her programs and blog that were published then.Anything she taught about business, energy congruence, or alignment, integration, and energy use was from content she read on my website and in my newsletter. To be honest, anything she wrote about or presented in her business was something she got from me. And she never paid me any licensing fees or royalties, never contacted me to get permission to use my content, she just took it. Although I had blocked her email address, she had people working for her who would go through my writings and take what they wanted. And she could use her phone or other computers to access my website, blogs, and podcasts if I blocked her IP address.She was using so much of my content in her business that she nearly destroyed my business. I could not use my own ideas and words in my business because she was using them in hers. It was a nightmare.And of course Christine Kane calls herself a spiritual person, she talks about love and light and how we should all be nice to each other. She even had the absolute gall to write an October 2014 blog post saying that ‘it's OK if someone steals your content because they can't steal your energy.' Was she trying to deflect the karma she was building by stealing my content or pacify her guilty conscience about using content that she knew was not her original work? Did she write it just before announcing the Becoming 360 program so that I wouldn't respond?So I did the only thing I could do, I let everyone know that she was a content thief and everything she produced that was from my work I let my audiences know. I was not afraid of a defamation lawsuit because it is not defamation if you have proof and are telling the truth. As a paralegal and experienced legal researcher, I would never publicly accuse someone of such a serious charge without having irrefutable proof. And I had it. There was so much proof that my lawyer, an experienced copyright infringement and IP lawyer, said it was the worse case had had ever seen. And the content theft continued.Eventually, in 2022, she was so discredited that even her most loyal followers were asking her about the source of her content and she declared that she was taking a ‘sabbatical' and closed her business. It has remained closed for the past 2 years.Since she was no longer writing or actively managing her business, that was one problem solved although she still owns the illegal becoming 360 trademark that my attorney is trying to get for me and the becoming360.com domain name.How does this connect with the upcoming full moon and karma? Well yesterday I learned that she had suffered significant losses in the Asheville, NC flooding. Yes she lives in Asheville and has for many years. Her home was on Riverbend Drive, less than 30 feet from the Swannanoa River. She owned 2 homes and both are gone. In fact, it is all gone, the homes, her possessions, the land – it is all washed away. She has nothing but the clothes she is wearing. She can't rebuild because the flooding washed the entire riverbank away. There is no land on which to rebuild.Now I am not one to gloat over someone's misery and losing all of your possessions is a big deal. But this is a person who gladly stole everything from me without a second thought, who happily hurt my business and income while bragging about how much money she made using my content. And who waved the spiritual flag for her followers while engaging in very dishonest and unethical actions.Now she is homeless and has to re-think her life. I call that karma. I wonder if she gets it and whether she will take a long, hard look at how she is living her life and what she is bringing upon herself because she sure wasn't concerned about that when she was stealing from me.It's karma time and the karma boomerang may take some time to circle back but it eventually does. What goes around comes around and that is absolutely true at this time. Anything that has been done since Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008 is coming back around so if you have been doing good things, you will probably be fine. But if you have been living your life on the wrong side of ethical behavior, you should probably be thinking about making some changes.And as far as Christine Kane is concerned, I wish her well but I do not feel sorry for her at all. I hope she has learned something from all of this and if not, that's her problem. One thing about karma, it is relentless. It comes at you until you get it and if you don't it comes around again.It's karma time and time to balance energy accounts and make good on promises and consequences. If it has your number it will find you and if not, you will watch the karma boomerang hit its mark with pinpoint accuracy. You do not need to feel worry for or pity these people. Bad behavior does eventually get punished and it always has a foundation in the truth of their actions and being. It's something you can't escape and while you may think you're getting away with something you are not. Karma keeps score and eventually it demands payment. This is one of those times.https://enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/persecution-karmaBefore I start this article and podcast I want to caution you that I will be blunt and direct. This is not a nice or an easy topic and I take issue with people who abuse their power and authority, especially in the spiritual community, to take advantage of others.I see it all of the time, smart, talented, spiritually competent people who have wonderful and powerful gifts to share with the world are stuck, procrastinating, anxious, confused, doubtful of their abilities, and are afraid to step forward. It is not entirely their fault because there is a very strong incentive for them to hide instead of shining brightly, to fear the consequences of sharing from their highest self, of being public and out in the open. They are afraid of the consequences that include betrayal, judgment, persecution, and worse. It's a very real fear with a very real foundation. And it's time to address our persecution karma.You know that this lifetime is one of many and if you are present here today as a spiritual teacher you have powerful gifts to share with the world. The problem is you have been down this path before, often with terrible consequences. You have known persecution from people you trusted and loved, you have been reviled, defiled, judged, imprisoned, and worse. You have lost everything, had everything taken from you, been imprisoned, seen others persecuted, judged, and betrayed for their association with you. The persecution fear is real but the question today is not ‘will it happen again' but when does it stop limiting you?In order to address our persecution karma we return in each lifetime and we bring our persecutors along for the ride. Our objective is not to be persecuted yet again, but to change their actions and to heal the relationship. We want to bring them to another level where they do not persecute us and to end this karma. It sounds good in theory but the reality is often much different, as you know.In this lifetime in particular, because it is the lifetime in which we have decided that we will end our karma, we have chosen our most powerful and strongest persecutors to accompany us so that we can end this persecution karma and really shine brightly. That was the plan. Instead, we have become victims to their power plays, jealousy, meanness, judgment, and power schemes yet again.Now our perspective of persecution karma is that we experience it in our family and with partners and friends and that is partly true. But what about the other types of persecution karma? Have you ever had someone you worked with do their best to discredit you or get you fired? Have you been betrayed by the friend who stole your partner or someone you cared for? Have you ever been let down, judged, or been attacked by a spiritual teacher or mentor? These are all forms of persecution karma too. Let's take a look at this life milestone energy and the millstone it presents us with.There are different ways we experience our persecution karma in our lives today, from our family, from those we put our trust in, and from our own spiritual community.Unfortunately for those with the persecution karma, the experience begins in the family, in childhood. The time of our life when we expect to be surrounded by love, support, generosity, and kindness, is often just the opposite. If our soul mission is so important in this lifetime, wouldn't we want the best possible foundation for it and have a loving, supportive family? You would think that would be the case and it isn't. But we do get a chance to get a firsthand experience of our persecution karma and that is how our spiritual learning in this lifetime begins.How many of you had parents who did their best to silence you, to dim your light, to destroy your confidence and treat you as an outsider? I know many of you and this is your story too.Since family is our first experience of our lifetime karma then it makes sense that this is where we will experience our persecution karma. It expresses itself in many different ways. How many of you had a jealous, critical or domineering parent? Probably most of you.How many of you did not feel welcome, integrated, or aligned with your immediate and extended family? Probably most of you.How many of you were seen as the outsider or the ‘different' one by your family? Probably most of you.How many of you knew intuitively that you could not shine your light or be powerful and successful because that would be a source of persecution and judgment by your family? Probably most of you.How many of you had a mother, father, or sibling who saw you as a rival and was in constant competition with you? Probably many of you.Read the rest of the article on the celebrated and world famous enlightening life blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/october-2024-energy-report/It's October now and we move from the 8 of September to the 9 energy of October (10 + 2+0+2+4 = 9) and we see the number 9 in terms of closure and endings. Well this one is a little different because it is not just closure we'll get, it is endings and the end, as in it's over, fini, fertig, finito, done, closed, and completely over. It is interesting that 2024 began with a 9 month, January 2024 was a 9 (1 + 2 + 0 + 2 +4) and October brings us full circle and full cycle from where we started on January 1, 2024. January was also a 9 value month and Pluto was at the same degree as it is now and getting ready for the final steps in its long transit of Capricorn. (everyone shout hooray)I am not talking about the end of the world apocalypse here, but something similar, although that is what the people whose land and homes were flooded are dealing with. What must be over will end, in one way or another, and we may be able to get closure, but that is not necessary for endings. Remember Capricorn is the end of the 3D path and Aquarius, the next sign, is the 5D sign leading us into full spiritual congruence. The ascension journey is nearing completion of this particular cycle.Beginnings require endings or we have a mish mash of events, situations, people, relationships, and the like that are no longer relevant to us today but we still have some connection to them so we keep them close by even though they add no value or benefit to us, our path, or our life.It reminds me of the junk drawer that everyone has in their kitchen, which contains a collection of old keys, random parts, cords, batteries, and objects that we once had or used. While we really don't know what they all belong to any more we're afraid to throw them away in case that thing shows up and we need that part or cord.So we continue to add to the junk drawer year after year until one day we decide to clean it up and discover exactly what is in there. The results are surprising because we find things that we were looking for, get rid of a lot of things we know we no longer need, and sometimes we find surprises. I did this with my daughter on my last visit to her house and we found a lot of things in the kitchen junk drawers including enough loose change to buy an ice cream treat for the entire family!As I am writing this on October 1 we just had an X7 solar flare, a rather large one that explains the anxiety, headache, and restlessness that I have felt all day. Of course since I am in North Carolina, I am also processing energy from the huge amount of devastation that was left behind Hurricane Helene too. I often visit that part of the state especially in the autumn because the Blue Ridge Parkway is so beautiful but not this year.Many of the roads I have traveled before are gone – washed away – or the towns I visited are gone or heavily damaged. Even the Biltmore House, the Vanderbilt property that is a central figure in the area, is closed. It is very sad but the people here will recover. They are strong and resourceful and very committed to their communities. And a lot of us will help when we can and when it is safe to travel to that part of the state.Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/create-energetic-space/You have heard me use the phrase ‘create energetic space' so many times over the years and I have explained it in various ways that include healing and release work. And that is true but once we get beyond the easy stuff then we move into the harder aspects of healing because like everything else, there is a core to what is making us feel stuck, disempowered, afraid, and confused. As you will learn it is something that eludes us because we are looking in other directions.The key to healing is not more emotional release work, which is often the easy part. There is an energetic component to release work that is the final component, the answer to all of our sadness, and it is the most challenging release work we will ever do.If you have had questions about why, in spite of years of release work, you just can't get clear of everything that holds you back, this article will answer those questions, give you some action items to implement, and perhaps even start an energy inventory of what exactly is in your energetic space right now and what you may want to create space for.To begin, we have to acknowledge that everything is energy and everything has energy. Every thought and belief has its own energy. Try this experiment. Think of something wonderful that happened in your past. I'll start – the time I was in an orchestra and played the piccolo solo in John Phillip Sousa's ‘stars and Stripes Forever' on a barge in the middle of a river. And I played it without making a single error. I had practiced for weeks and it had to be absolutely perfect or someone would notice. It was an honor to play it, an acknowledgement of my talent and skill as a musician, years of practice, and I wanted it to be perfect. And it was. I only played it one time that day but I got it exactly right.How do you feel about what you just remembered? I feel fantastic, I am smiling, and I remember hitting that last note of that solo, so grateful that it was over and that I had played my solo perfectly. It was one of the more thrilling moments of my life.Read the rest of this article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/september-2024-energy-report/Have you ever noticed that the holiday season creeps on us and while we think we have weeks to get ready all of a sudden it's time to think of holiday celebrations, gifts, and decorations? As we enter September we are in that mode because although we have known for months that we would eventually arrive at the monumental re-entry of Pluto into Capricorn for its final visit, it happens this month.In fact, it happens on the second day of the month, September 2, along with the new moon in Virgo.September's energy themes are the harvest, energetic restoration, congruent harmony, and divine restitution. Restitution or retribution – we will let the Universe decide.All of these events are connected to our ongoing ascension journey so we get it from all angles this month. Pluto's journey into Capricorn lasts 10 weeks and covers only 1 degree but it is going to be powerful, meaningful, and eventful. It is not a time to be scared or to dread the future because it is an inevitable part of a big cycle which began with Pluto's entry into Capricorn in 2008.Starting September 2 we are going to be winding down this important Pluto cycle, which includes backfilling in the areas that were unearthed, disturbed, discovered, revealed, and pointed out during Pluto's 16 year cycle. If you look at the geopolitical scene, that's a lot of revelation and it began in 2008 when we were beginning to suspect that something was very wrong with the 3D reality we lived in but we had no idea where to even begin to figure out what it was.Fast forward to 2024 and the conspiracy theories have proven to be fact, those who held them to be remarkably insightful and the world is awakening to a stark truth that all is not what it seems. That is Ok though because we are going to arrive at the truth and although it may be a windy road, we will arrive at the truth destination.Meanwhile, we have strong energies in September beginning with the numerology. September is an 8 month (9 + 2024 = 17, 7+1=8). Not only is 8 known as the number of infinity, the yin and yang, the balance of light and dark, if you cut one side of the you get 9, the number which represents the end of the journey, the final destination. In numerology there are 9 numerals, no double digits.Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/mercury-retro-extravagant-necessary/If you follow me on facebook you know that my phone died yesterday. It just stopped working. The screen was black, it would not ring (I tried to call it), it would not turn off or on, I tried pushing all the buttons, nothing would make it respond. My first thought about why this happened was Mercury retrograde, as this is the kind of event that happens with Mercury retro and this one is particularly tricky. That realization did not fix my phone but it did remind me that everyone is susceptible to Mercury retro shenanigans, even someone who has Mercury retro in their natal astrology chart, like I do.So I did what anyone today does when their phone dies (and it is their only mobile phone), I panicked. I called my carrier and ordered a new phone, paying extra to ship it next day air. I had an old tracfone that I tried to reactivate, and I searched online to find ways to make my phone work again.I went to bed last night feeling rather glum about the whole situation. Now I am not tied to my phone, as in I am not using it 24 hours a day, I don't take it into the bathroom with me, I turn it off at night, but it does come in handy for certain things like GPS and it is required to post some things on Instagram.I felt rather lost, not being able to check my facebook page and Instagram account yesterday, to get phone calls and check my text messages. While I do not get that many texts, there is a difference between not checking them because I am busy and I will check them later and not being able to check them at all because my phone is not working.And I sent my family members an email (from my computer) letting them know that if they called or texted and I did not respond it was because my phone was not working. This was especially important for my mother, who tends to panic and think the worst if I do not call her back within a reasonable amount of time, which in her estimation is about 20 minutes. And I have to share that I did this because a few years ago when I did not call her back immediately she called my children and other family members, certain that something dire had happened to me because she did not hear back from me right away. I later told her, after I called her upon receiving absolutely panicked calls from my children wondering whether I was still alive and not mortally wounded, that this was really not appropriate behavior.So to ensure that it did not happen again, I let her know my phone was out of commission Read the rest of the article on the Enlightening Life blog at this link.

https://enlighteninglife.com/energy-disruptorsIn more than 20 years of writing and over 5000 articles I have never discussed the topic of people and situations that disrupt our energy in one single article as I am going to do today. This is a difficult topic because we all have one or more of these energy disruptors in our lives. Whether it's the family that rejects or judges you, friends who betray you, work or business colleagues who steal your work (I have a lot of experience in this area), people who are deliberately mean to you, are jealous of you, or who try to put you down in any way, or situations that drag you down, this is a very common occurrence in our lives.What do we do about them? Some of these situations we cannot just leave and walk away from. Other situations and people must be confronted and dealt with. And some of these situations have no happy or benevolent outcome. Sometimes we react with anger to these situations that are so unfair and so undeserved and sometimes we let them create depression and helplessness. It is true that there may be nothing we can do about them, as they continue despite our best efforts, but we can make ourselves immune to their actions.There is nothing that we can do about someone's bad behavior because we cannot change what others think, say, or do. But we can learn to be aware of their behavior, prepare ourselves for it, arm ourselves against these energy disruptors, and learn to be energetically powerful and sovereign in spite of them.This is where good intentions and our spiritual integrity meet the ugly side of 3D reality. If we are doing our work and doing the right things, shouldn't we be able to avoid these kinds of situations? No, there has never been a promise of easy, trouble-free living with our spiritual work. And often the opposite is the case. The more involved we are in our spiritual work, the higher our frequency and vibration, the more committed we are to following the ascension path, the more we have to deal with these energy disruptors.Blame it on the brightness of your light or the beauty of your energy frequency, we will have to deal with unpleasant people and situations that appear to have a singular purpose, to bring our energy down. It's everywhere and even the spiritual community is full of these people and sad to say, the greed, jealousy, and sabotage that exists amongst spiritual teachers and workers can be disappointing.Karen Bishop, who wrote the What's Up on Planet Earth blog for many years, she quit writing after being frustrated with people stealing her work. It has happened to me too but I don't quit, I go after these people and often prosecute them in court. I'll share some of my stories of energy disruptors later in this article as an example of how this happens and what you can do about it. It's a tough situation and it is very unfair to us but it happens and we need to deal with it.read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/august-2024-energy-report/July is over and we are now entering the 8th month of the year and in an 8 year we have a double 8 numerology (or 16) which creates a 7 vibration. Now 7 is supposed to be the number of introspection, the spiritual quest, contemplation, and inner work. But that's not what I see for this month. I see the integration of energy downloads from July, intentional action, and new perspectives for our 5D energies – community, connection, creativity, collaboration, and cooperation.We must be constantly looking for ways to integrate these energies into our lives and as our own 3D paradigms dis-integrate, we must be ready with these 5D energies to replace what is rapidly becoming unsustainable, intolerable, and incapable of energetic connection. How many people do you know experienced relationship endings in July?I know of several clients and friends who decided that their relationships with certain people or situations were over and they were finished with the pain and challenges they were facing. And they don't regret their decisions either. They knew it was time and they acted decisively and quickly, something they were not ready to do before. The only thing that changed was the timing – remember July was all about descension, energy coming in to help us move forward in any way we need to so we can live in a more high vibes way.It's time for energetic freedom and this is one part of it – releasing ourselves from the relationships and life situations in which we feel that we are in bondage, oppressed, where we are energetically unbalanced, manipulated, used, and unappreciated (except for what we give them). Those days are over and in this new 5D paradigm we simply are not willing to tolerate any kind of behavior that doesn't support and add to our joy, and that is out of energetic integrity and alignment with us.Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

https://enlighteninglife.com/peril-power-pote…l-transformation/As I've been talking about for the last few months, we had a very interesting series of aspects and so much energy focused on our transformational friend Pluto in the last few weeks. This week begins with the energetic resonance of the Full Moon at 29 Capricorn which just happened on July 21st. Now this was part of an Alpha Omega portal that began on June 21st with the first full moon at one degree of Capricorn.Why is Capricorn so important now? Because we have had the Capricorn influence since 2008 and within that period the historic US and global Pluto return occurred in 2022. Even though Pluto entered Aquarius in January 2024 it will retrograde into Capricorn in September through mid-November, hitting just that final 29 degree mark, the same degree of this full moon, and then move into Aquarius for good, not to return to Capricorn for 250 years. This is a monumental time.We are seeing the transition and transformation of the Capricorn paradigm, the corporatocracy, the 3D paradigm of power, control, corruption, competition, deceit, and deception which was brought to our attention in extreme detail since Pluto has been in Capricorn. This is the final countdown of ascension, the final revelation of the true nature of 3D which we need to see so we can do the work of dis-integrating it for a new 5D paradigm, which is what ascension provides.Since 3D is our paradigm this integration work is not done for us, it is done in partnership with us, we must do the dis-integration work of 3D so we can integrate 5D energy and we are doing this on both the individual and collective levels. It's a lot of work, I know. It's tiring and can be depressing, it's hard to stare evil in the face and bring in the light. But that is where we are and it is what we are doing.But the fun doesn't stop there. Much more is happening and don't worry, it is all supportive of our ascension work and 5D integration. As you know, if you have been following me on facebook, this period is also punctuated with the rare and historic Mars, Uranus, and Algol conjunction at 26 Taurus which happened the week of July 15. This particular aspect has only happened 5 times in 2500 years so yes, it is special. And the Uranus/Algol conjunction continues through May 2025, so it is just starting.Read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2024 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

Today we are talking about Idea #6 to help you manage people even better, which is to have a Zero-Tolerance Policy.While ruling with an iron fist often results in workers losing motivation, this does not mean you let them get away with everything. You need to implement a zero-tolerance policy for misconduct, complacency, and failure to respect the company values. This is extremely important.

The modest city of Coronado, California, has made a decisive move towards combating homelessness, their solution as simple as it is resolute - a zero-tolerance policy on encampments. Coronado's Republican mayor attributes their success to their refusal to encourage destructive behavior. They offer compassion, yes, but not the kind that tolerates a homeless individual's descent into lawlessness and drug addiction, but one that genuinely uplifts them from their plight. It's a straightforward message, get the help you need or face the law, which has transformed this California city into a sanctuary of order and prosperity.The result is no vagrants, no encampments on their sidewalks, and no tolerance for code violations. This stringent policy, when paired with a healthy partnership between the police department and homeless service providers, has reaped visible benefits for the community. It gives the homeless one clear-cut choice - help or exit. This may not be the traditional path, but the lack of tents, crime, and the overall cleanliness of the city is a testimony to its effectiveness. So, while other metropolises continue to grapple with their escalating homeless population, Coronado offers a new blueprint - one that stresses the importance of upholding the rule of law while addressing this social issue.#CoronadoPolicy #ZeroTolerance #HomelessnessSolutionSupport the show

Are you ready to set a Zero Tolerance Policy? Is another person's behavior toward you hurtful, demeaning, disrespectful, or downright threatening? In this episode, we contemplate our tolerance levels for others' behaviors. We think through becoming ready to make a boundary and draw a line: to have “Zero Tolerance”. We look at the planning and preparation needed to ensure we set ourselves up for the greatest success possible. Hear two stories: one that illustrates a “mushy” policy and one that illustrates “Zero Tolerance”. Explore an example with host, Silvia Smart. Hear about the “Zero Tolerance Policy” of the NBA and yes, her favorite team, The Portland Trailblazers as they've codified it into expectations of fans at games.  Connect with Silvia Special thanks to my editor, Collin Taber (@that2ndtaberkid) Resources: National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-4673 National Association of Adult Survivors of Child Abuse   Support this important work: Buy Me a Coffee Donate through my website Thank you!   Join “The Empowerment Project” Group on Facebook.
