Let’s get right to it--to fulfill your purpose in life all you need to do is just be yourself and start shining.

Really.

If you think that’s just a load of New Age hooey, well then consider this--maybe you don’t know who or what you really are. The truth is, most of us don’t know what we’re made of. So let’s start there.

In my first book, Spirited, I explained to readers that you fulfill your life’s purpose by being the highest expression of yourself, and when your actions, words, and thoughts are kind, gentle, gracious, and loving, you’re doing just that. While I still maintain and know this to be true, further clarification may be in order. Allow me: When your actions, words, and thoughts are kind, gentle, gracious, and loving, you’re expressing your divinity, your God-spark within, and that is your purpose in life. Yes, we’re only a few pages in and I’ve already dropped G‑O‑D into the conversation.

Let me explain what God means to me, and before I do I want to be very clear on two points. First, God is just the word I use to identify something that you may have another perfectly good word for--Source, Higher Power, Creator, and the Universe are popular alternates. And secondly, it’s not my intention to challenge or validate your particular belief system, but only to share the messages and insight that Spirit has passed on to me. Remember, I’m just the messenger.

For the fifteen years that I’ve served as a medium between this world and the next, what Spirit has clairvoyantly, clairsentiently, clairaudiently, and claircognizantly impressed upon me is that God is pure, unconditional loving energy. What I’ve personally experienced, believe, and now know to be true is that God is the highest vibrational energy that exists in the universe. God is the source of all energy. And since everything that you can think of is made up of energy that never dies but simply changes form, then I bet you can see where I’m headed here--you and me, each and every one of us on Earth, are, in our simplest form, energetic extensions of God. In other words: a chip off the old block.

What spirits, those who have died a physical death on Earth and crossed over to the higher, brighter spiritual realms, confirm for me on a daily basis is that we are each living, walking, talking, and breathing manifestations of God. We’re all packaged differently, but our insides--our spirits--are made of the same stuff: divine loving energy and light. I like to think of it this way--within each of us is God’s incredible and powerful DNA. Meaning you have all the qualities, all the wonderful, radiant expressions of God, already inside you.

Say what? God’s DNA--really, I’m not making this up. According to Kabbalah, the mystical branch of Judaism, ten powerful expressions, or characteristics, of God reside within, permeate, and surround each and every one of us. I’m talking about things like compassion, kindness, trust, and gratitude. Buddhists call this the “Germ of Buddhahood,” or the “Buddha-nature.” Hinduism calls this the “Atman” and Christians call this the “Holy Spirit.” However and whatever you want to call it, the principle is the same: When you express your innate divinity, God is revealed through you, as you. Kabbalists refer to this as “letting in the light,” where all ten expressions of God are awakened, lit, or ignited and man ascends the mystical Tree of Life.



An Energetic Extension of God

In your simplest form, you are pure and powerful energy and light. This energy that flows within you is called by many names. In ancient Chinese medicine, it’s called Chi. In yoga, it’s called Shakti. In the West, it’s commonly called Spirit. I often refer to it as our God-spark. All great spiritual traditions talk about spiritual energy and the energetic body; they just give them different names. Whatever the tradition, the assertion is the same--the energy and light within and throughout you is meant to flow. This is what it means to awaken the spirit within.



Throughout the pages of this book, I’ll reference the principles of many different belief systems, but I want to be clear--my definition of God has no ties to any religious affiliation. Rather, what I know to be true comes from countless insights backed by clear validations from Spirit. What Spirit has communicated to me time and time again is that there are no denominations (Christian, Buddhist, Jewish, Islam, etc.) on the other side. When all is said and done, and by done I mean dead, we all end up in the same place despite our personal beliefs or philosophies in life. I call this place, this sacred space, God. I also call it home.

If you doubt, distrust, or even outright reject an all-inclusive ideology, you’re not alone. In readings, spirits often share with me their stunned realization that their path to God in life was not the way, but only a way and that truly, all paths lead home. Consider that God, metaphorically, is the center of a wheel. The spokes on the wheel represent the many unique and different paths people use to reach God, and yet each spoke is connected to the same central hub. Meaning that all religions, all paths serve a similar purpose--to connect us to and bring us closer to God. In fact, the root of the word religion means “to bind” or “to connect.” When you think about it, whether you practice Catholicism, Judaism, Buddhism, any other religion, or Atheism, it’s really meaningful and purposeful connection that you’re after, isn’t it? So you see, no matter what your religion or belief system, we’re all searching for and wanting the same basic stuff.

As a general rule, I try to leave theological discussions out of my work because religion has a tendency to polarize people. And yet it comes up anyway, and not from my living clients, but from the dead! What I hear nearly every day in readings with Spirit is how their faith in something bigger and beyond helped ease the deceased’s transition from life into death. In most cases, death looks, feels, and is different than what the deceased imagined it would be, but if they already believed in something in life, they readily embrace and transition into the afterlife, no problem, no question. Conversely, many spirits who died without having faith in God or something more acknowledge a complete turnaround in their belief system in death. Where in life they were plagued by doubt or skepticism, in death they clairsentiently express a feeling of overwhelming love and understanding of our divine oneness and that--spoiler alert--we don’t have to wait until our physical body dies to know and feel God.



Belief in Something More

Jennifer’s Story

“I have a young man; is he your son?” Rebecca said to my mother. Then she turned to me and said, “I’m getting the sense he’s your brother. He’s front and center and coming through really strong.” Those were the first words Rebecca said to us in our first reading with her, in March 2007, and what welcome words they were after nearly five years of grief and unanswered questions.

My brother Jeff died suddenly, unexpectedly, and tragically at age thirty-four. His death and its aftermath had left us hoping and searching for a reputable psychic medium for years. When we finally met Rebecca, we were unsure what to really expect. We didn’t fully comprehend the enormity of it at the time, even after it was over, but that day changed our lives and understanding of life and death forever.

After Jeff’s death, we turned to God and churches for answers. But at the same...
