Silence: Raising Vibrations Through Recovery

Before we get started, I want to mention that I've now surpassed the sobriety milestone I refer to in this episode. I'm also uploading this a little later than I originally intended, but I believe the message is still worth sharing. This episode is a personal reflection and a reminder of God's faithfulness through life's challenges. I recorded it as a way of acknowledging the tests and temptations...

Arriving home yesterday after a nearly ten-hour unpaid mandatory training session for one of my employers reminded me of how corporate America often leaves people feeling as though they don't have a life outside of work. Although the training is required for my field, it was incredibly time-consuming, and by the time I arrived home, I was mentally exhausted. I was so drained that the plans I had m...

As I'm slowly building Silent Light and Support Co., I find myself appreciating small businesses more than ever. Like any business owner—whether you're running a large corporation or just getting started—you hope your organization is supported by the community. That's one of the reasons I wanted to create this Hidden Gem episode. Sometimes it's not always about the biggest companies. In my experie...

Three days ago, what began as a routine shopping trip to Dollar Tree quickly turned into a test of my endurance and sobriety. As I pulled into the parking lot, I noticed someone searching through the dumpster area. At first glance, I didn't realize it was someone I had previously engaged in drug activity with on several occasions. Once inside the store, I grabbed a shopping cart and prepared to he...

I want to take this opportunity to clarify a few things. In this episode, I mentioned that another podcasting platform was the beginning of my podcasting journey when, in fact, that credit belongs to Podbean. In yesterday's recorded upload, I also forgot to mention another meaningful experience. While checking out at the same Goodwill where my sobriety was nearly put to the test, the cashier notic...

Yesterday, what was supposed to be a routine trip to Goodwill after getting my car's oil changed turned into a major test of my sobriety. While browsing through the store, I noticed an individual who appeared to be under the influence of a substance. Throughout my visit, we exchanged conversation on and off, which initially seemed harmless enough. As time went on, however, I noticed this person in...

The Lambda Center here in Phoenix often hosts guest speakers on special occasions and recovery-related events. On one particular evening, I decided to attend for fellowship and to hear the story of the speaker who had been invited to share. As I walked in and found a seat, I had no idea that the beautifully dressed woman sitting in the front row would soon be introduced as that evening's speaker....

While taking inventory of my YouTube platform and deleting old posts, I came across a powerful reminder of just how brutal addiction can be. About two years ago, I worked as a housekeeper at the Hilton Phoenix Airport here in the Valley. During that period, I was also deeply trapped in my addiction. There were many days when I arrived at work under the influence. As a result of my substance abuse,...

Many helping professionals enter this field with a genuine desire to serve others, yet the reality of chronic understaffing, overwhelming caseloads, limited resources, and constant exposure to crisis can leave workers frustrated, compassion fatigued, burned out, and emotionally exhausted. Over time, this level of stress can place tremendous strain on the nervous system and leave even dedicated sta...

Before I begin discussing what this episode is truly about, I want to apologize for the music not being incorporated into the beginning and ending of this recording. Unfortunately, there’s an issue with my wireless headset that prevents the music from being heard while recording. So no worries about copyright concerns — it’s not like y’all can hear the music anyway. I created this episode because...

As Jesus mentioned in the Bible, “It is finished.” I created this episode after attempting to go live tonight, only to receive a message stating that this feature officially ended on the 18th of this month and will be fully phased out sometime in June. While I was initially disappointed, I chose to view the situation from a different perspective. Much like the renovations taking place within my ow...

[RECORDED YESTERDAY NIGHT] Thank you for tuning into Raising Vibrations! My apologies for just now uploading this content later rather than sooner. In this live stream. I wanted to share some words of encouragement with those addicts still suffering. The weekends were a huge trigger for me while deep in my addiction. The control that "THE GODDESS ISHTAR" had over me with mind altering substances,...

In this episode. I explain "HOW I DID IT" and beat the odds. Even while going through phases of addiction and relapse! Though I made the mistake of falling victim to the "HOLIDAY" relapse quad. I managed, with the help of the invisible, to persevere. Which in return, opened the doors to some major opportunities! Satan took so much from me because it's what I allowed. Now that I realize how much of...

In this episode. I share some stories of encouragement that goals can still be accomplished. Yes, even while going through relapse phases! I managed to achieve my (CPI) certification while relapsing on the eighth of this month. Hell, I even achieved my peer support certificate in 2022 while dealing with intermittent relapses. I'm not at all trying to influence it. I'm just saying that you can stil...

In this episode of "RAISING VIBRATIONS" podcast. I open up in regard to my feelings centered around what happened at tonight 12-step meetings. I truly thank Dr. Bob and Bill for creating an amazing read "THE BIG BOOK OF AA" that has helped thousands of addicts recover from addiction. But lately, I've been feeling this type of energy that tells me "THESE AREN'T MY PEOPLE" in those fellowship rooms....

[HAPPY 2026 EVERYONE!!!] In this episode. I spoke openly about how I (WILL NOT) allow my addiction to refine me. Rather, it's refining the fuck out of my ass! After a few relapses, both occurring after major holidays. I had, another, out of many, spiritual awakenings that revealed to me what my purpose is while here on earth. I'm a humanitarian, and I am to live a life of humanitarianism!!! Much a...

In this episode. I share why I stepped away from the mic, and all of my other social media platforms for awhile. "IT ALL CENTERS AROUND WHAT OCCURRED THAT NIGHT OF NOVEMBER THE NINTH!" I'm not really surprised at what I witnessed. Unfortunately, this is the direction that our world is heading in. But the fact that I'm involved with this in a "SPIRITUAL" sense is what had me blown away! Who knew th...

In this episode. I share a hidden (GEM) with you guys that's truly a whole vibe! There's live music, singers, good food and beverages. But most of all, you're amongst some good company! I'm also reaching out to all of my Indie musicians that have experienced addiction, lived through it, and from those experiences. You created some compelling music centered around your struggles. I would love to in...

It's been awhile since I've shared a hidden gem with you guys but that's going to change! I have several upcoming (💎's) for you all to work with if you so choose. Most of the gems that I share are going to be primarily local to my area. If you're traveling, or visiting here. Feel free and attend any of the activities that I post. There are several different events via this recording that you all...

On this live show. I foreshadowed the fact that today "HALLOWEEN" is my birthday! Though there's ample excitement regarding my special day. There is some shocking truths centered around it as well! Which I share with you all via this stream. It'll make you think twice before celebrating "SATAN" each year!!!I I opened up in regard to my addiction, and how I've been coping with it. I even marched in...

In this episode. I took some time out to apologize for my absence. I foreshadowed a great majority of the events that played out prior to me stepping away from the mic. I titled this episode what I did because it's important to touch base on addiction and adversities!!! People of addiction are struggling nearly every single day with some form of adversity. And instead of turning to a support syste...

In this episode. I spoke about how my guidance from the universe is opening doors to an abundance of magic! Reading the book ( THE SEVEN TYPE OF SPIRIT GUIDE: HOW TO CONNECT WITH YOUR COSMIC HELPERS) is by far one of the best books I've read leading me right to this very point! Because of this book. It allowed my spirit to guide me in the direction of my (MESOAMERICA AND ANDEAN) roots! Like the au...

In this episode of Raising Vibrations Podcast. I speak about my necessary hiatus away from the platform. As one of God's chosen. It's a must that I seclude myself away from the rest of the world in order to hear his messages. Which has led me to some major blessings! During that much needed hiatus. I elevated into a whole new person. One that wants to do God's work at all means necessary with limi...

[RECORDED JUNE 26, 2025] My apologies for uploading this episode later rather than sooner. I do believe this is the actual day that I found my two feathered friends deceased! Due to this tragedy. I've now started a movement/support group on Facebook for addicts who have lost their (NON-HUMAN) companions due to whatever circumstances. I think it's important to address every aspect of addiction. "IN...

[RECORDED JUNE 26, 2025] In this episode. I share something very heart breaking for not only myself. But also for my remaining two that's left behind. As I explained via this recording. I'm not sure what caused this to happen! I just know that the discovery of my friends was traumatic enough as it is! I can just imagine what the remaining two felt considering it was them four. I still have the two...
