Awareness is often praised as the key to growth — but under pressure, it’s rarely enough.
In this episode of The Tya Podcast, David sits down with David Roode to explore why intelligent, self-aware people still spiral when stakes are high — and what actually creates emotional stability in real-world conditions.
This conversation goes beyond insight and into regulation, speed, and structure — the elements that determine how decisions are made when pressure is real.
In this episode, you’ll explore:
- Why awareness can accelerate dysfunction without regulation
- How intelligence amplifies existing emotional systems under stress
- The difference between insight and stability
- Why emotional regulation is structural, not motivational
If you’ve ever known better but still reacted — this episode explains why.

(00:00:20):
David Rood, Tya Coach, Tya Geek, self-proclaimed Tya Geek.
(00:00:27):
Well, yeah, thank you.
(00:00:28):
I think I said it first, but you gave me the name, I have to say.
(00:00:31):
It was not for me, but it sticks.
(00:00:34):
But we're clarifying that you're not offended by it.
(00:00:36):
And if you are, you'll get over it.
(00:00:39):
Yeah, yeah.
(00:00:42):
Well, I call myself tag geek, too, but you really geek out on the practice, and I love that.
(00:00:47):
I do.
(00:00:48):
I love that.
(00:00:49):
I was a band geek in high school,
(00:00:50):
so this is not really a far stretch from that,
(00:00:53):
to be honest with you.
(00:00:54):
Did you love being a band geek in high school?
(00:00:58):
No, that was kind of a derogatory thing.
(00:01:00):
Although it's funny, in my high school, the band kids didn't get that kind of flack a whole lot.
(00:01:06):
We were kind of, nobody cared about us.
(00:01:08):
In other schools, they got bullied because they were in band.
(00:01:11):
And I didn't understand why, but I was fortunate.
(00:01:14):
I never actually had to deal with being bullied because I was a musician.
(00:01:17):
which is funny now as an adult you're like why would you bully somebody for that
(00:01:22):
you know but when you're a high school kid it's a bit different you know so yeah
(00:01:24):
what era were you in high school what i grew up it was like 90s yeah okay so not
(00:01:29):
too far i was i graduated high school in late 80s so in the 80s in the south in my
(00:01:37):
very conservative southern high school i don't remember the band people i think
(00:01:41):
they kind of just stuck to themselves
(00:01:44):
I couldn't tell you who they were.
(00:01:47):
Quieter, I guess, just did their own thing.
(00:01:49):
They certainly weren't the quote unquote cool kids that I'm aware of or the popular
(00:01:53):
kids or any of that.
(00:01:55):
But I don't remember bullying necessarily.
(00:01:59):
But in the 90s, geek took on a different vibe because of all the tech geeks, right?
(00:02:05):
And now they're running the world.
(00:02:07):
They're our billionaires now.
(00:02:09):
So, yeah, I think geek changed a little bit.
(00:02:12):
But that's not what this episode is about.
(00:02:14):
We're not here to talk about geek or no geek.
(00:02:16):
I'm actually here to break it to David because he is a fan of
(00:02:24):
my trance channeling of the stream and i don't really do that anymore and so i'm
(00:02:35):
here to to break the news david that i i'm not doing that anymore oh i'm sorry uh
(00:02:43):
well
(00:02:44):
We kind of discussed this a little bit before we came on,
(00:02:47):
but I am still allowing that knowledge to flow,
(00:02:52):
but it feels so integrated these days.
(00:02:56):
And I've said this before,
(00:02:57):
and I went an entire year without doing it,
(00:02:59):
and then I kind of got back into it a little bit because everybody was asking for
(00:03:02):
it.
(00:03:02):
I even did a live event last year in Palm Springs where everybody came to the event
(00:03:07):
just for that.
(00:03:09):
So I understand the appreciation behind it, but...
(00:03:15):
I don't feel that it's serving the audience like it used to.
(00:03:25):
The concept of trance channeling is you are taking yourself into an altered state of being.
(00:03:34):
I like to say you're setting your ego aside and you're letting knowledge flow from
(00:03:40):
somewhere else.
(00:03:45):
And I have said from the very beginning that I feel like that knowledge exists
(00:03:50):
within all of us.
(00:03:53):
That I wasn't trying to say,
(00:03:55):
I'm special,
(00:03:56):
I have this,
(00:03:58):
and you need to come and listen because you don't have access to this.
(00:04:02):
But I do see that there's value in the fact that I have spent a lifetime listening
(00:04:09):
to this inner voice
(00:04:11):
And I think the difference between me and a lot of other people is that very early on in life,
(00:04:21):
I did not really care for what I was hearing externally.
(00:04:25):
And I wasn't hearing a lot from my parents.
(00:04:27):
They were very disconnected from me in early life.
(00:04:29):
I was really kind of left to my own devices.
(00:04:32):
And I really leaned into that inner voice and kept listening and kept listening and
(00:04:36):
kept listening.
(00:04:37):
And then I learned to trust it because when I listened to the inner voice and
(00:04:40):
trusted it and did,
(00:04:42):
I won't say that was guiding me to anything,
(00:04:44):
but just I acted on the information that it was offering.
(00:04:48):
It always worked.
(00:04:50):
I defied odds.
(00:04:52):
I defied some significant odds in life listening to the inner voice more than
(00:04:57):
listening to what was being said to me by authority figures,
(00:05:00):
for example.
(00:05:02):
I just kept doing that and doing that and doing that and getting bigger and bigger
(00:05:05):
and bigger life results as a result of doing that.
(00:05:08):
I didn't even know what channeling was for many, many years.
(00:05:12):
And then somebody said, you're a channel.
(00:05:14):
I went to see a psychic.
(00:05:15):
And if you've been listening to this for a long time,
(00:05:17):
you've heard this story a million times,
(00:05:18):
so I won't go too deep into it.
(00:05:19):
But the psychic said, you're a channel.
(00:05:21):
This is what channeling is.
(00:05:22):
And this is someone you may want to listen to.
(00:05:24):
And the someone that she suggested was Abraham Hicks.
(00:05:28):
And I initially was very turned off by that.
(00:05:30):
I thought it was weird and it looked like religion to me and I'd already stepped
(00:05:33):
away from religion until it sort of kept coming back around to me in a way that I
(00:05:38):
felt like I could no longer avoid it.
(00:05:40):
And Esther's sharing of Abraham made channeling for me palatable.
(00:05:46):
And then I learned how to do it.
(00:05:47):
I taught myself how to do it.
(00:05:49):
I accepted that, okay, I do have this.
(00:05:52):
I understand this information that's being shared.
(00:05:55):
And I understand it a little differently.
(00:05:57):
And I'm going to go out and I'm going to start sharing my own version of it.
(00:06:01):
And where is this coming from?
(00:06:04):
And where it was coming from was what I call source.
(00:06:09):
And I think we're all source.
(00:06:10):
I think we're all expressions of source.
(00:06:11):
So we surely have access to this information, but not all at the same level, obviously.
(00:06:17):
So that's where the stream of David came from.
(00:06:19):
That's why there's not a name that is this entity that is a former human or some
(00:06:25):
sort of deity or an alien.
(00:06:27):
It's never been that.
(00:06:28):
It has always been a stream of consciousness that's coming from me, the stream of David.
(00:06:33):
And what came from the stream
(00:06:38):
was the operating system that we now call TIA.
(00:06:46):
And I think the value of everything that's been offered from them is not in what
(00:06:50):
they're offering as much as the system that we've all created together to practice
(00:06:56):
what they're telling us.
(00:06:58):
which is the more you appreciate things,
(00:07:02):
the more you understand things,
(00:07:05):
the more you focus on the things that you want to experience and an authentic
(00:07:10):
belief that they're already yours,
(00:07:12):
then your life is going to get better and better and better as a result of that.
(00:07:15):
So that's what Taya is.
(00:07:18):
So why do we need me to go into trance to tell you that same thing over and over again now?
(00:07:29):
And I'm asking you that question because I know you still want to hear from them.
(00:07:34):
Welcome to being a guest on this podcast.
(00:07:36):
Well, thank you.
(00:07:38):
Yeah, so I know that's a good point.
(00:07:40):
And I think that as you're saying all this,
(00:07:42):
I think that there are...
(00:07:46):
So to answer the question as best I can,
(00:07:49):
I think a lot of the channeling and the stream over my few years of doing this and
(00:07:55):
my interactions with the stream...
(00:07:57):
has a lot to do with the,
(00:07:59):
I think,
(00:07:59):
the intention and this sort of work and,
(00:08:04):
I guess,
(00:08:05):
effort of the receiver.
(00:08:08):
So for me,
(00:08:08):
when I was going through the boot camp,
(00:08:10):
for example,
(00:08:11):
I would,
(00:08:12):
you know,
(00:08:13):
many times people go through these sort of programs,
(00:08:14):
they have a bit of an ego battle or they can come face to face with their own
(00:08:19):
shadow of their psyche or things like that.
(00:08:21):
And we have,
(00:08:22):
I went through quite a bit of what I could consider kind of an existential crisis
(00:08:25):
when I was in boot camp.
(00:08:28):
And I came up to a lot of situations – well,
(00:08:32):
not a lot,
(00:08:32):
but I think two times I came up to a situation where it was like a showstopper.
(00:08:36):
I hit a roadblock.
(00:08:37):
I didn't know which way to go.
(00:08:39):
And many times when I was kind of needing or looking for or seeking guidance on that,
(00:08:47):
I was pretty discerning about,
(00:08:49):
is this a question I should ask the stream or is this a question I should ask David
(00:08:54):
or one of the coaches or one of my Thai friends?
(00:08:57):
And a lot of my decision,
(00:08:59):
how I decided that,
(00:09:01):
it's sort of like the stream wouldn't really have a human perspective of it.
(00:09:05):
They would tell you this sort of kind of lofty, in the clouds, metaphysical kind of perspective.
(00:09:14):
And if that helped get clarity, then that was very useful.
(00:09:17):
I could get clarity many times from the stream that I couldn't get through any
(00:09:21):
other human that was kind of still looking at it through their own sort of like
(00:09:24):
opinions.
(00:09:26):
However,
(00:09:27):
if it was like I'm down in the dumps that one day and I couldn't figure out how to
(00:09:31):
do it or if it was a human thing I was going through.
(00:09:34):
then talking to like a friend like hey how do you deal with this how do you where's
(00:09:38):
you know like uh how do you detune stuff or you know like more uh hands-on human
(00:09:43):
approach what it would would help with that so i use both and that's why um when
(00:09:49):
you hear me say like i still like the stream to be around it's because there's that
(00:09:54):
aspect from the stream that you're not going to get from someone who's
(00:10:01):
still got their human mind very present.
(00:10:05):
Now,
(00:10:06):
here's the catch though,
(00:10:07):
and I can see this,
(00:10:09):
that there are people out there who don't do the work on themselves and don't do
(00:10:14):
the practice and don't really look inside
(00:10:17):
and then go to the stream for the answer because they're too either lazy or don't
(00:10:23):
have enough guts to actually work on themselves.
(00:10:27):
So for me,
(00:10:27):
when I was going through the practice,
(00:10:29):
it was like when I was like in one of those roadblocks,
(00:10:32):
first step was like internal searching and asking my own inner guidance.
(00:10:37):
if that was not getting anywhere then i would go to like the stream or a coach but
(00:10:42):
i was always go internal first go for myself in my own thinking so i think if a
(00:10:47):
person is very genuine in that the stream has a great place however if they're
(00:10:54):
looking for like a shaman to like read my tarot or something like that then that's
(00:10:59):
not going to work because you're just it's kind of like it's like an empire strikes
(00:11:04):
back with like
(00:11:05):
luke skywalker goes into that swamp and dagobah and he goes to take his lightsaber
(00:11:10):
and yoda says you don't need your weapons he says what's in there only what you
(00:11:15):
take with you it's a bit like that if you go to the stream you're still taking
(00:11:19):
yourself to the stream but so that's that's my opinion about it that's why i'm i'm
(00:11:24):
not i mean i could see that the
(00:11:28):
the channeling the trans channeling can be like a crutch for some for many actually
(00:11:35):
well that's that's exactly because the stream is still very present i i do an hour
(00:11:39):
a day of quiet contemplation where i absolutely am accessing that anytime i'm
(00:11:44):
teaching if you do the sunday you come to the sunday lives about 10 or 15 minutes
(00:11:49):
into that live you're getting that you're still getting it it's coming from my
(00:11:53):
perspective generally every once in a while the we comes out
(00:11:58):
automatically doing that, which is interesting.
(00:12:02):
And it's so funny because this newer concept,
(00:12:08):
newer mainstream concept of being non-binary is changing pronouns and all of that.
(00:12:13):
And all of a sudden,
(00:12:15):
I go from he,
(00:12:17):
I to they,
(00:12:17):
them,
(00:12:17):
we,
(00:12:18):
and it has nothing to do with my gender or identity or anything like that.
(00:12:22):
It's simply that just starts to flow sometimes.
(00:12:25):
So I'm not saying it doesn't still happen.
(00:12:27):
I don't want to create dependency on that.
(00:12:31):
We have created an academy.
(00:12:34):
We have layers and levels of learning Taya from just starting out
(00:12:41):
and beginning to figure out what conscious creation is to what I believe is the
(00:12:45):
forefront,
(00:12:46):
the leading edge of this type of thought,
(00:12:49):
especially at our mastermind level.
(00:12:51):
And we like to share that here on this podcast as well.
(00:12:54):
So we give you all of it.
(00:12:55):
And some of it may be so far out there that it just sounds weird or crazy or I'm
(00:13:00):
nowhere near that yet.
(00:13:01):
But if it's intriguing to you and if it's something that you want to give power to,
(00:13:06):
then it's something that's going to have value for you.
(00:13:09):
But not everybody is here on the same journey.
(00:13:11):
I do not believe in a one size fits all.
(00:13:15):
There's no evidence of that, right?
(00:13:16):
There's no evidence that there's a one size fits all way of being, way of operating your life.
(00:13:21):
There are atheists that are living perfectly happy,
(00:13:24):
joyful,
(00:13:25):
abundant lives that don't believe in anything.
(00:13:27):
outside of what they see as concrete.
(00:13:30):
There are religious people that are doing the same,
(00:13:34):
and there are spiritual people that are going to like an Abraham Hicks weekend,
(00:13:40):
and they're very happy in that space,
(00:13:43):
and maybe they stay in that space forever,
(00:13:46):
as long as they're physically manifested,
(00:13:48):
or maybe they do that for a while and then move on to something else.
(00:13:52):
I tend to,
(00:13:53):
I've noticed that an aspect of my persona is that I get bored with things and I
(00:13:59):
need something new,
(00:14:00):
something more.
(00:14:02):
And I moved through all these different levels.
(00:14:06):
It started out being very just introspective for me because I didn't have access to
(00:14:10):
metaphysical books or ideas or thoughts in the 1970s and 1980s growing up in small
(00:14:15):
town Louisiana.
(00:14:15):
And
(00:14:20):
I grew up in an environment where anything along those lines would be considered
(00:14:23):
demonic or witchcraft and was not available to me anywhere that I'm aware of.
(00:14:27):
So I started out there.
(00:14:29):
And then I started sampling other thoughts and ideas and reading books and studying
(00:14:34):
other teachers and gathering from them.
(00:14:37):
And I sort of took a lot of that as far as I could take it.
(00:14:41):
And then I, as I explained earlier, was turned on to channeling, avoided that for a while.
(00:14:47):
Then I really dove deep into the Abraham Hicks world.
(00:14:49):
That was very helpful for a while.
(00:14:51):
And then I sort of reached a plateau with that where,
(00:14:54):
okay,
(00:14:55):
coming to these Saturdays and listening to the tapes over and over again,
(00:14:59):
have taken me to this space, but I know there's more than this.
(00:15:06):
And that's why I started sharing the stream,
(00:15:08):
not to be the next Abraham and not to criticize Abraham.
(00:15:11):
I've always said that, that I referenced them a lot
(00:15:15):
Because it was such a transformative part of my journey.
(00:15:20):
And a lot of people in our world have been through that journey as well.
(00:15:24):
But I needed to know, okay, what's beyond this?
(00:15:27):
Because there's got to be something more than just this message.
(00:15:32):
This message is right for someone who is in this space.
(00:15:36):
But I needed a system.
(00:15:38):
I needed a system to actually make those ideas a way of life.
(00:15:43):
And so...
(00:15:45):
I went deeper into the value of low vibration because that's really what emerged
(00:15:49):
from my channeling was,
(00:15:51):
hey,
(00:15:51):
don't think that you just have to be high vibe all the time like so many people are
(00:15:55):
saying that are starting to explore conscious creation.
(00:15:59):
Low vibe has a lot of value.
(00:16:01):
And it's never going to completely go away.
(00:16:03):
You're never going to be completely finished with your low vibe experiences because
(00:16:07):
there's a lot of expansive value in low vibration.
(00:16:12):
So why don't we focus on all of that?
(00:16:13):
And then from that emerged from my creative mind and the other people that were
(00:16:19):
creating what we now call Taya With Me were the four pillars that we operate our
(00:16:23):
lives on.
(00:16:26):
And that has proven over these years to be everything that we really need to be on
(00:16:31):
this ever expanding journey.
(00:16:33):
Well,
(00:16:33):
now I've expanded to the point where the stream is so integrated that I can teach
(00:16:39):
and it can flow when I really let loose and allow it to.
(00:16:42):
But.
(00:16:45):
the trance aspect of it,
(00:16:48):
meaning when I sit and breathe and do the we are here and kind of start speaking
(00:16:56):
from that perspective,
(00:16:59):
I just don't feel like I need to do that anymore.
(00:17:01):
It just needs to happen naturally.
(00:17:04):
And we need to appreciate that it's natural.
(00:17:06):
And I think that the reason that I don't want to do it anymore the way that I've
(00:17:10):
done it,
(00:17:10):
well,
(00:17:10):
there's two things.
(00:17:11):
One,
(00:17:12):
thanks to technology, we have years of recordings of that already.
(00:17:16):
There's an entire book written from that perspective that will always be.
(00:17:20):
The Thai practice book is channeled material.
(00:17:22):
So you get that perspective in the book and you hear it in the audio book.
(00:17:26):
I am in channeling mode in that book.
(00:17:28):
And,
(00:17:30):
do we need me to keep doing that or can we move on and focus on okay now let's take
(00:17:35):
taya and let's continue practicing taya to the point where it's not just a practice
(00:17:42):
it's now an operating system that's new language as of this past year that we're
(00:17:47):
calling it an operating system it's more than just a mindset practice it's a
(00:17:52):
full-blown
(00:17:53):
foundational operating system that you can run your life with.
(00:17:56):
Let's run with that.
(00:17:57):
Nobody else is doing that.
(00:17:58):
Let's do that.
(00:17:59):
Let's focus on that.
(00:18:01):
And let's create these different levels inside our academy that allow people to
(00:18:07):
apply this from the book,
(00:18:09):
from this podcast,
(00:18:10):
from YouTube,
(00:18:11):
Be intrigued by it.
(00:18:12):
See that it works.
(00:18:13):
Decide to give it power because everything has the power that you choose to give to it.
(00:18:17):
And then if you really want to keep giving it power,
(00:18:19):
go deeper and deeper and deeper into training with it,
(00:18:22):
which is where the academy level comes in.
(00:18:24):
And that's where being able to go really deep with it,
(00:18:28):
own your own as you did,
(00:18:30):
have your own trials and errors with it.
(00:18:34):
And the errors and the trials are really where the magic is.
(00:18:36):
You learn that in boot camp.
(00:18:39):
And then come back around and talk to your community.
(00:18:41):
Talk to the friends that you're making that are also practicing this in your community.
(00:18:45):
Talk to the coaches that are talking about this stuff all the time.
(00:18:50):
Talk to me.
(00:18:51):
I live it all the time, every day.
(00:18:53):
It's my whole life and it's my life's work.
(00:18:55):
And then decide, okay, I've done the intensive program.
(00:18:59):
I've installed this as an operating system.
(00:19:02):
Now, where do I want to go in terms of
(00:19:04):
What do I want to do next?
(00:19:06):
Do I want to just take this and go live my life with it?
(00:19:08):
And we've had plenty of people that have done that and they report back years later
(00:19:12):
that they're still utilizing it and they will for the rest of their lives and
(00:19:15):
they're very happy at the level they're at.
(00:19:16):
Or do I want to go on for another year in some sort of a training program?
(00:19:20):
Or do I want to get in a mastermind and help create this at the kind of the highest
(00:19:25):
level of thought and really help create it for the rest of humanity that is aligned
(00:19:30):
with it?
(00:19:32):
Whenever I talk about creating community and expanding community and creating this
(00:19:38):
sort of mesh or this Taya matrix,
(00:19:42):
it's not about indoctrinating all of humanity into Taya.
(00:19:46):
It never will be that.
(00:19:47):
But it is about expanding our reach to appeal to more and more people that are
(00:19:55):
asking for something like this,
(00:19:57):
that are aligned with it.
(00:19:59):
Always understanding that anyone that comes into our world,
(00:20:02):
you're always choosing your next step.
(00:20:05):
It's always up to you what you choose,
(00:20:06):
how deep you want to go,
(00:20:08):
whether you want to invest money in your practice or not,
(00:20:11):
how deep you want to go in installing this.
(00:20:14):
And we're very, very, very clear about that.
(00:20:17):
So if we're doing that at that high level and I've got six plus years of podcasts
(00:20:24):
where I've off and on channeled,
(00:20:27):
I've got an entire book where the whole message is contained there.
(00:20:32):
if I continue to do this trance channeling and do workshops and seminars where
(00:20:37):
people are coming to hear from the stream,
(00:20:40):
do we really need that?
(00:20:41):
I'm not saying I'm never going to do it again.
(00:20:43):
I'm just throwing an idea out there that this is kind of where I am right now,
(00:20:47):
that I am moving on from the stream of David.
(00:20:49):
It's the foundational,
(00:20:50):
it's never going to go away,
(00:20:52):
but you know,
(00:20:53):
the stream of David is no longer the title of this podcast.
(00:20:58):
intentionally because the stream of David has delivered clarity for us.
(00:21:02):
We know what that source-driven message is, and it's not very complicated.
(00:21:08):
It's pretty damn simple.
(00:21:09):
Source is appreciation of all things, period.
(00:21:12):
And if you want creation to happen in your life,
(00:21:15):
creation is always going to happen in the space of appreciation,
(00:21:19):
not fear,
(00:21:19):
not judgment,
(00:21:20):
not worry,
(00:21:21):
not doubt,
(00:21:22):
not resistance,
(00:21:23):
period.
(00:21:25):
So then the hard part is,
(00:21:26):
okay,
(00:21:27):
we've been brought up in this matrix that operates in opposition to that,
(00:21:30):
really opposite of that.
(00:21:32):
How do we continually detune the matrix,
(00:21:35):
detune our ego,
(00:21:37):
shrinking those things to their proper perspective and allow ourselves to live more
(00:21:43):
source-driven lives for the rest of our lives?
(00:21:46):
I mean, I think you made a point earlier about not wanting to create dependency.
(00:21:51):
on the stream and i i feel like that's kind of the responsibility of the consumer
(00:21:55):
actually because you know i could become dependent on you know uh i could go back
(00:22:02):
and listen to all the podcasts and okay let me put this way if i'm going if i'm
(00:22:07):
listening to the stream or listening to the podcast with the mindset of
(00:22:11):
I don't know what I'm doing and I can't figure it out.
(00:22:15):
So I'm going to go somewhere else for help because I don't trust my own sort of guidance.
(00:22:20):
Well, that would be kind of misguided and I could see that backfire.
(00:22:24):
But if I'm looking for more clarity,
(00:22:26):
because there are things I don't understand,
(00:22:28):
there are still things that,
(00:22:30):
um,
(00:22:31):
you know uh there's there's more layers to find and i think that that's a very
(00:22:36):
valid useful tool i think there's some merit also to keeping the practice and the
(00:22:40):
whole approach very pure uh because and as as simple as possible because um
(00:22:49):
Sometimes when our egos get involved, we like to overcomplicate things.
(00:22:53):
We start to add stuff.
(00:22:55):
Well,
(00:22:55):
some people like something that sounds very mystical and complicated and use a lot
(00:22:59):
of scientific language.
(00:23:01):
And the stream has always said the universe is actually very simple.
(00:23:05):
Yeah.
(00:23:06):
All creation is a product of consciousness first and consciousness is impacted by polarity.
(00:23:12):
Yeah.
(00:23:13):
as a growth as an expansion tool really but we don't understand polarity here
(00:23:18):
because we're so busy judging the challenge oh life is so hard earth is so terrible
(00:23:24):
humans are so evil you know we have all these labels that the matrix throws out
(00:23:28):
there and it's so prevalent yeah the ones high up i think really in the mastermind
(00:23:34):
group like the coaches like me and you and like derek and matt like all of us carry
(00:23:39):
we're all really in this i don't think we're doing that we're like
(00:23:42):
Why do I still think that way?
(00:23:44):
Oh, well, yeah.
(00:23:47):
That's the goal here is to not blame external sources for anything.
(00:23:53):
Because when you're doing that, you're giving your power away.
(00:23:55):
And anybody that's interested in this practice or this operating system,
(00:23:59):
I should say,
(00:23:59):
because it's morphing from a practice to an operating system.
(00:24:02):
Anybody that's interested in this...
(00:24:04):
needs to understand that that should be where you want to go.
(00:24:08):
If you're into this, if you're not into it, it's so easy to step away from it.
(00:24:12):
I get critics all the time on social media.
(00:24:14):
Oh, this is a cult.
(00:24:15):
This sounds like X, Y, Z. You're ripping off somebody else.
(00:24:18):
I hear all of that stuff.
(00:24:20):
And they haven't even bothered to really learn what it's all about.
(00:24:23):
They're just being internet trolls and trolls do what they do.
(00:24:26):
But understanding that
(00:24:30):
We're not trying to recruit people into this saying that this is the only way and
(00:24:37):
that everybody should do this this way.
(00:24:40):
I'm very clear that this is creative for people like all of us who have explored
(00:24:47):
and been on a journey and now want a foundational system to operate their lives by
(00:24:51):
that allow you to function on that journey and continue to expand in your journey
(00:24:56):
for the rest of your life.
(00:24:58):
That's why we say fall in love with the work because you're never finished with it.
(00:25:01):
There's always going to be some other level,
(00:25:03):
but it's not always the external things as much as it's inward,
(00:25:07):
inward,
(00:25:07):
inward,
(00:25:08):
inward.
(00:25:08):
This practice starts taking you really deep inward and you start to activate your
(00:25:13):
own version of source and get your own clarity.
(00:25:15):
But it's okay to come back around and say, okay, I'm getting from...
(00:25:20):
my quiet contemplation time that this is the path to detune or get to this next
(00:25:26):
level what do you all think there's a lot of value in that group thought absolutely
(00:25:30):
there is yeah
(00:25:35):
Well,
(00:25:36):
when I first started listening to your podcast back in 2019,
(00:25:40):
the thing that actually convinced me that the stream was legit is because they said
(00:25:46):
very explicitly,
(00:25:48):
if this doesn't make sense to you,
(00:25:49):
you're right to walk away.
(00:25:51):
And that to me is kind of like the gold standard with any sort of teaching is this
(00:25:59):
idea that if this isn't a fit for you,
(00:26:02):
There's no mandates.
(00:26:04):
You don't have to do this.
(00:26:06):
Well, there's a lot of power in creating a mandate.
(00:26:09):
We see that in religion.
(00:26:10):
Believe this or you're going to burn in hell, that sort of thing.
(00:26:13):
But I just have not found that to be true.
(00:26:15):
So how in the world could I possibly utilize that in a spiritually-based,
(00:26:21):
which has now become a psychology-based slash scientific-based because we see
(00:26:26):
elements of all of those things
(00:26:28):
we see the value in all of those things coming into the practice or the system and
(00:26:35):
my meeting michael was certainly no accident and michael and i sort of coming at it
(00:26:41):
from different perspectives you know he's a psychologist but he is a
(00:26:46):
mindfulness-based psychologist for sure but he sees the value for someone who is
(00:26:53):
choosing to believe this and give this power
(00:26:57):
in going beyond radical acceptance to radical appreciation.
(00:27:02):
That's where psychology and therapy and all of those things have to stop because
(00:27:06):
they don't know what your belief system is.
(00:27:08):
They're not impeding on religious beliefs and things like that.
(00:27:11):
And so they're not going to tell somebody who has suffered PTSD to appreciate the
(00:27:16):
thing that's causing the PTSD.
(00:27:19):
And I understand why they stopped there.
(00:27:20):
And that's the psychology has its place.
(00:27:23):
Therapy has its place.
(00:27:24):
because we're not that we have the the the luxury is probably not the best word but
(00:27:32):
we have the advantage of going beyond that to hey why not full-blown appreciation
(00:27:38):
of that thing oh but it was so terrible it was so traumatic you don't understand
(00:27:42):
how horrible well you know i do understand even if i haven't personally experienced
(00:27:48):
exactly what someone else experienced
(00:27:51):
I absolutely have experienced things that people would say were traumatic experiences.
(00:27:57):
Yeah.
(00:28:00):
In my lifetime, I've had a knife pulled on me.
(00:28:02):
I've had a gun pulled on me.
(00:28:04):
I've had a mother tell me that she wishes I was never born and wishes I was dead
(00:28:08):
and didn't speak to me for the last part of her life.
(00:28:10):
I've had unsavory things happen in my life.
(00:28:13):
So I have been there.
(00:28:15):
I have been flat broke not knowing where my next meal was coming from.
(00:28:20):
I have experienced these things.
(00:28:22):
So...
(00:28:25):
I could very easily look at those things and choose the victim path and say those
(00:28:29):
were terrible,
(00:28:30):
awful,
(00:28:30):
horrible things.
(00:28:32):
I have had,
(00:28:33):
for lack of better terminology,
(00:28:35):
I've had sexual encounters with adults when I was a young child.
(00:28:37):
I've had those things happen.
(00:28:41):
I could choose to look at those things as something that I was a victim of,
(00:28:44):
but I've just really never chosen that.
(00:28:46):
And what it does is it's allowed me to reframe all of those things as just
(00:28:50):
experiences that I moved through.
(00:28:53):
And some of them were terrifying in the moment, painful, hard to move through.
(00:28:58):
But gosh,
(00:28:59):
every single thing that I endure and move through,
(00:29:03):
I understand now expands my consciousness,
(00:29:06):
makes me a wiser version of me because now I know what it's like.
(00:29:11):
And I've had the experience and I'm just choosing not to judge it as something that
(00:29:15):
shouldn't have happened or should not be or shouldn't exist.
(00:29:18):
If you have walked away from religion,
(00:29:21):
outgrown spirituality,
(00:29:23):
and realized that law of attraction was just more consumerism,
(00:29:27):
you're not lost,
(00:29:28):
you're actually awake.
(00:29:30):
You are promised peace and prosperity.
(00:29:34):
Religion took your power away and told you how to live.
(00:29:37):
Spirituality promised a new earth that never materialized.
(00:29:41):
And Law of Attraction turned creation into a shopping list in order to feel worthy.
(00:29:47):
But now you're standing out in the wilderness,
(00:29:49):
not knowing what to believe,
(00:29:51):
but knowing that there must be more truth out there than that.
(00:29:55):
And there is.
(00:29:56):
It's called emotional intelligence.
(00:29:59):
understanding how energy and polarity actually create your reality and how to live
(00:30:05):
in authentic peace no matter what's happening around you.
(00:30:09):
That's the foundation of TYA, T-Y-A, an advanced operating system for life.
(00:30:14):
If you're ready to get your power back and finally make sense of life, TYA is not a religion.
(00:30:20):
It's a proven mindset practice that is transforming lives globally.
(00:30:23):
And you can begin learning TYA today by getting our book on Amazon,
(00:30:27):
available in paperback, hardcover, Kindle, and audiobook formats.
(00:30:32):
Check it out.
(00:30:32):
It's a link below on Amazon.com.
(00:30:35):
There's part of me,
(00:30:36):
when you want to teach this to other people,
(00:30:39):
and when I left my corporate job to do this full time,
(00:30:43):
there was part of my ego that wanted to share this with the world from a very
(00:30:46):
ego-driven perspective of,
(00:30:47):
wow,
(00:30:48):
I really have the answers to everything.
(00:30:50):
I still feel like I do, but I understand now it's not my place to share that with the world.
(00:30:56):
I could very easily be a guru who is on social media with a million followers doing
(00:31:04):
what those folks do,
(00:31:05):
but they're also creating dependency on that message to get that level of
(00:31:09):
following,
(00:31:10):
and they're keeping it in a certain lane.
(00:31:12):
And that lane works.
(00:31:13):
And I'm not saying they're bad.
(00:31:16):
I'm saying that lane exists to serve people who are in that stage,
(00:31:20):
whether those people choose to be in that stage indefinitely or if it's just a
(00:31:24):
phase that serves them.
(00:31:26):
I think that they all exist for a reason.
(00:31:27):
They're all great.
(00:31:29):
Keep doing what you're doing.
(00:31:30):
What you're doing is wonderful.
(00:31:32):
Not everyone is going to continue to move through...
(00:31:38):
I'm sounding very arrogant again here,
(00:31:40):
but...
(00:31:41):
I can acknowledge that everyone that's in our world has sampled these things and
(00:31:46):
experienced them and moved through them.
(00:31:48):
And then they sort of get to this point where, okay, I want to know what's next, what's more.
(00:31:53):
And,
(00:31:56):
That's our people, right?
(00:31:58):
And everybody's not there and not everybody's going to get there.
(00:32:00):
But those are our folks.
(00:32:02):
And that's who we're here for.
(00:32:04):
And I can't be here for them and still be trying to save people from themselves or
(00:32:10):
teach Law of Attraction 101 or I heard a term the other day,
(00:32:15):
love bomb people.
(00:32:15):
Sometimes I'm on these podcasts and I'll hear it.
(00:32:18):
Hi, everyone.
(00:32:18):
We love you so much.
(00:32:20):
Hi, lovely, beautiful souls and all that stuff.
(00:32:22):
And I'm kind of like, okay, you know, if that's your thing, that's cool.
(00:32:25):
But that's, you know, I...
(00:32:29):
I understand the need for people to feel that loving warmth and that nurturing sometimes.
(00:32:36):
I have needed that at times,
(00:32:38):
not in a long time,
(00:32:39):
but I have been there where I needed that from something.
(00:32:41):
If you're not getting it from your family and you're not giving it to yourself,
(00:32:45):
it feels good to hear it from somebody else.
(00:32:47):
Our message is always,
(00:32:48):
let's teach you how to do that for yourself so that you don't need that from
(00:32:53):
anybody else.
(00:32:54):
And maybe that's just not where you are.
(00:32:56):
And I, again, 2019, I said it, I'm still saying it in 2026.
(00:33:00):
If that's not where you are and this isn't for you,
(00:33:02):
then you're right to turn it off and walk away from it.
(00:33:05):
You're just not at the space in your.
(00:33:07):
and wherever you are and maybe you're believing that you're beyond this and that's
(00:33:11):
okay too but this is this is our lane this is what we do and i would rather stay in
(00:33:16):
this lane and do this better than anybody that i'm aware of to the best of my
(00:33:20):
ability because i believe that's how we're serving the people that choose this as
(00:33:25):
their system yeah no that's all fair i think it makes sense i think the main i see
(00:33:33):
you know i'm thinking like what are the sort of two most
(00:33:37):
common struggles I see with the people and like in the,
(00:33:43):
in the clients I work with in the,
(00:33:44):
in the price exchange program,
(00:33:46):
and then conversations I had with other Thai folk is that I think the two areas
(00:33:50):
that seem to come up the most are,
(00:33:53):
um,
(00:33:55):
sustaining the practice as in doing the work.
(00:34:00):
Maybe Matt has said many times,
(00:34:01):
like when you feel like things are going well and you're really like,
(00:34:05):
you know, like you're on a roll, that's when you keep doing the practice.
(00:34:10):
Well, the problem is when life gets really good, then we think, oh, this is great.
(00:34:13):
I'm going to really relax around my practice.
(00:34:15):
And then it starts to fall apart and you suddenly need to get back in.
(00:34:20):
And the spin out, that's called a spin out and spin out's part of it.
(00:34:22):
Yeah.
(00:34:23):
You know,
(00:34:23):
there's always some area of my life where I am spun out and I will always tell all
(00:34:26):
of you where I'm spun out.
(00:34:28):
Right now, it is not in happiness.
(00:34:30):
It is not in relationships.
(00:34:31):
It is not financial at all.
(00:34:33):
Right now where I'm spun out is health.
(00:34:36):
I put a lot of weight back on during COVID and I was really getting back into shape
(00:34:40):
at the beginning of last year.
(00:34:41):
And then I got so hyper focused on creating this new technology that we're using
(00:34:48):
now that is wonderful.
(00:34:52):
I got so hyper focused on that, I started letting the health go again.
(00:34:56):
And now in 2026,
(00:34:57):
my intention for this year is,
(00:34:59):
okay,
(00:35:00):
we've created,
(00:35:01):
not I,
(00:35:01):
we,
(00:35:02):
we have created this incredible technology where anybody can go to tieacademy.com,
(00:35:07):
take that little three question survey,
(00:35:09):
and it starts you on a journey.
(00:35:12):
into our world and you can and if you get derailed,
(00:35:16):
if you spin out of our world,
(00:35:18):
you can go right back to tie academy dot com and start over again.
(00:35:21):
And then it's going to logically take you.
(00:35:24):
There's all this conditional logic that's built into it now that's logically going
(00:35:29):
to take you where you want to go next,
(00:35:31):
depending on how deep you want to go,
(00:35:34):
how committed you are to going there and how ready you are to invest money or not
(00:35:39):
in it.
(00:35:40):
And there is a path for everyone.
(00:35:43):
And so I love that we've built that because we're serving everybody in terms of
(00:35:49):
readiness,
(00:35:49):
financial ability,
(00:35:51):
and just willingness to really put time into this.
(00:35:56):
So our system is built now for that,
(00:35:58):
but it took a long time and a whole lot of work to get it all built.
(00:36:02):
And I got so excited and so hyper-focused on that, that I stopped going to the gym
(00:36:08):
And my eating, which was so clean, kind of unraveled a little bit.
(00:36:12):
And my body is giving me feedback of that now that,
(00:36:15):
hey,
(00:36:15):
you know,
(00:36:16):
you need to focus on your health a little more.
(00:36:18):
So that's my thing now where I'm spun out that I will start paying attention to.
(00:36:22):
And as soon as I get that plate spinning, something else will spin out.
(00:36:25):
But I love this because I know that that's how creation occurs.
(00:36:33):
That stress testing happens.
(00:36:36):
your system on a continual basis is why low vibration exists and why we always have
(00:36:42):
challenges no matter what.
(00:36:45):
I promise you,
(00:36:46):
the people that are placed on a pedestal as being the most successful humans we
(00:36:51):
know of,
(00:36:51):
the Elon Musks,
(00:36:53):
the Jeff Bezos,
(00:36:54):
the Beyonce's of the world,
(00:36:56):
all of those people have plenty of things stressing them out in their lives or at
(00:37:02):
least creating challenges in their lives right now.
(00:37:07):
Everybody does.
(00:37:08):
We're all here for that.
(00:37:10):
As soon as you check off all the boxes that the matrix tells you you're supposed to
(00:37:14):
check off,
(00:37:15):
you've got money,
(00:37:16):
you've got security,
(00:37:17):
you're educated,
(00:37:18):
you're intelligent,
(00:37:19):
you're meditating,
(00:37:20):
you're grounded,
(00:37:21):
your relationships.
(00:37:22):
As soon as you think everything is working,
(00:37:24):
something is going to happen that's going to challenge you yet again.
(00:37:28):
And it's very easy to slip back into the,
(00:37:30):
oh gosh,
(00:37:30):
I've done all this work and I've got all these things and I'm really signaling
(00:37:35):
everything the matrix says I'm supposed to be.
(00:37:37):
Why this?
(00:37:38):
Why now?
(00:37:38):
Why me?
(00:37:39):
Why a challenge?
(00:37:42):
And it's because the universe is designed to continually keep us in a state of
(00:37:45):
challenge,
(00:37:47):
not in a state of stress,
(00:37:49):
because the stress is chosen via the judgment of the challenge.
(00:37:53):
It is, yeah, yeah.
(00:37:54):
It doesn't have to be stress, but it is, yeah, challenges.
(00:37:58):
That's a good way to put it.
(00:37:59):
The other thing that I see a lot in my own personal practice and with my clients is
(00:38:05):
people who sometimes –
(00:38:08):
They know that there's something standing in the way in their thinking,
(00:38:16):
but they can't see their own operating system enough to really identify where it
(00:38:21):
is.
(00:38:21):
And I do have this with clients sometimes where that's why when I'm doing coaching,
(00:38:26):
I'm 100% focused on listening to like trying to
(00:38:31):
listen to the thinking behind whatever they're saying and try to see where the,
(00:38:34):
the thought process of how things are connecting.
(00:38:37):
And it's, what I'm talking about is our blind spots.
(00:38:40):
We all have blind spots.
(00:38:42):
Well,
(00:38:43):
it's helpful to have interaction with other people around your blind spots because
(00:38:46):
sometimes it's,
(00:38:47):
you're so in your own head in your own space that other people can detect things
(00:38:52):
and point things out because they're getting a more limited experience.
(00:38:55):
version of you, they can detect it and pinpoint it better than you can.
(00:38:59):
That's why coaching is so popular now because coaching is very valuable.
(00:39:03):
If you're working with a coach who is sincere and sincerely attempting to assist
(00:39:11):
you in some way rather than just,
(00:39:13):
you know,
(00:39:14):
and that's,
(00:39:16):
that was actually coming back to what we started this whole conversation about.
(00:39:19):
That was the benefit of the stream.
(00:39:21):
because the stream had no agenda for trying to like get me to do one thing to sign
(00:39:27):
up for another coaching or something.
(00:39:28):
Stream was like, I could just say, and that was like my kickoff call with bootcamp.
(00:39:33):
uh i remember like we were the idea was to identify your three root transgressors
(00:39:37):
you're going to work on a boot camp and the stream just said like so what were your
(00:39:40):
early childhood memories and i kind of just went in this like i saw the recording i
(00:39:44):
wouldn't like this 10 minute like sort of like talking of stuff and i i was just
(00:39:48):
sort of going and then they said well you you're right transgressors are blank
(00:39:52):
blank blank and they just like this your three roots and i was like oh
(00:39:56):
where'd she come up with that and they said something like well we just asked you a
(00:40:00):
simple question you talked for 10 minutes and we you know something like that you
(00:40:03):
know but i think that that's the that is the that's the one thing that i i still
(00:40:08):
feel that the channeling can deliver that a human can't because a human is always
(00:40:15):
going to have some subconscious opinion or agenda
(00:40:21):
As much as we have good intentions,
(00:40:23):
like I'm always like when I'm teaching or coaching or anything,
(00:40:25):
it's always to help the student first.
(00:40:29):
And that's my genuine intention.
(00:40:31):
But there's still every human is going to have some subliminal subconscious.
(00:40:38):
I mean, my goal in my channeling was always to get my ego out of there completely was the goal.
(00:40:44):
And I think by and large, my channel, there wasn't.
(00:40:47):
much david left at all there but i do see with other channels that and i and i
(00:40:55):
would be remiss to say that i have any ego there because i see that in other
(00:40:58):
channels where there's definitely a line they won't cross and that's the ego back
(00:41:05):
there not wanting to go into certain topics
(00:41:11):
Right.
(00:41:12):
Limiting the channel message.
(00:41:13):
And I believe in the purity of I can't speak about every channel.
(00:41:18):
I haven't listened to every channel.
(00:41:19):
You know,
(00:41:19):
the channels that I listen to,
(00:41:21):
I know that like Abraham Hicks,
(00:41:24):
for example,
(00:41:25):
still has some Christian.
(00:41:28):
There's some of Esther's maybe Christian,
(00:41:32):
I don't even know if it's upbringing,
(00:41:34):
but it's sort of a Christian,
(00:41:35):
at least adjacent belief system.
(00:41:37):
When I used to listen to it,
(00:41:38):
I haven't listened to it in a while,
(00:41:39):
that was still a little woven into that.
(00:41:41):
And I think it's because they were speaking to an audience
(00:41:44):
That was probably a post-Christian audience by and large.
(00:41:48):
And they were being,
(00:41:49):
and I'm not saying that this is,
(00:41:50):
you know,
(00:41:52):
malintent at all,
(00:41:53):
but they're understanding who their audience is and still projecting to that
(00:41:57):
audience in a way that they can receive it,
(00:41:59):
which is not bad.
(00:42:01):
Again,
(00:42:01):
that's probably why it worked for me at that time is that in the beginning,
(00:42:05):
I thought it was very Christian.
(00:42:06):
And I realized, okay, this isn't really that.
(00:42:07):
They just sort of market it that way.
(00:42:09):
Because that ask in his given book cover seemed very Christian.
(00:42:14):
He has the dove flying and all that stuff.
(00:42:16):
And so once I detuned my judgment of that, I got into it.
(00:42:21):
But I still heard that woven into Abraham's message.
(00:42:25):
And then I, again, seek to detune judgment when I discover judgment.
(00:42:30):
Okay, they're speaking to a certain type of audience here.
(00:42:34):
They're not trying to be a one-size-fits-all, nor should you be.
(00:42:38):
to everyone because they're just we're not in a one size fits all world.
(00:42:41):
So that makes sense.
(00:42:42):
So I understand what you're saying,
(00:42:43):
because the David mind is always going to say,
(00:42:47):
you know,
(00:42:47):
there's value in Thai Academy.
(00:42:50):
There's value in taking that because I do believe there is.
(00:42:53):
But I think for someone who's new to this,
(00:42:58):
you can't help in this day and age but think,
(00:43:01):
OK,
(00:43:02):
this guy's just trying to get me to take his expensive program.
(00:43:06):
Yeah, that's what I thought.
(00:43:12):
We have a very expensive program.
(00:43:14):
And that supports this work.
(00:43:17):
And I like to be very transparent about that.
(00:43:20):
That's okay.
(00:43:21):
I like to be transparent about it because it's okay for you to be skeptical because
(00:43:25):
there's certainly...
(00:43:25):
I have...
(00:43:28):
rubbed elbows with lots of people in the coaching industry.
(00:43:31):
And of course, that industry was already well on its growth pattern when I got into it.
(00:43:38):
I was skeptical of it.
(00:43:40):
When I got on the person that taught me how to do a coaching online coaching,
(00:43:45):
I was very like,
(00:43:46):
oh,
(00:43:46):
no,
(00:43:47):
no,
(00:43:47):
no,
(00:43:47):
I'm not going to be that.
(00:43:48):
I'm not going to be one of those cheesy coaches that's teaching people to get rich quick.
(00:43:52):
We can, you know, no, no, no, no.
(00:43:54):
I remember the videos I used to see of these folks and I'm not going to be in front
(00:43:56):
of the Lamborghini.
(00:43:58):
I'm going to teach you how to be a millionaire, you know, and she handled me so well.
(00:44:03):
I was so and I knew she was handling me, but I was so impressed in the moment.
(00:44:06):
She kind of said, actually, you need to go meditate about this.
(00:44:10):
And she really put me in my place.
(00:44:12):
And I got off the meeting and I went and meditated about it.
(00:44:15):
And I'm not kidding to this day.
(00:44:17):
I've told the story a million times.
(00:44:19):
The stream came through and the message was, hey, dumbass.
(00:44:23):
You want to teach people how to make this what we now call a system because you're
(00:44:28):
a systems guy.
(00:44:29):
You want to take all these lofty teachings and make it a daily system.
(00:44:33):
This is how you do that.
(00:44:35):
Stop being judgmental of this.
(00:44:37):
Stop being fearful around money.
(00:44:40):
I gave her $15,000.
(00:44:42):
I took her program and I never look back.
(00:44:45):
I don't regret it.
(00:44:47):
I would pay $100,000 for that now easily.
(00:44:50):
I do feel there's an honesty in the stream.
(00:44:52):
I don't talk about other channels.
(00:44:52):
I don't want the stream.
(00:44:54):
I feel there's an honesty in the stream that you're never going to get from a human.
(00:44:58):
And that was the other thing,
(00:45:00):
too,
(00:45:00):
is I never asked the stream anything that I wasn't prepared for a brutally honest
(00:45:07):
answer.
(00:45:08):
And I was prepared that they could tell me something I really don't like.
(00:45:12):
Yeah.
(00:45:13):
Yeah,
(00:45:14):
the deal I made with them,
(00:45:15):
because the first time I channeled ever was the very first episode of this podcast.
(00:45:22):
It used to be called the Stream of David,
(00:45:23):
but now you find it as the Taya podcast,
(00:45:26):
not the Taya practice podcast.
(00:45:28):
That's something we did for a minute and stopped.
(00:45:30):
There's only a handful of episodes of that.
(00:45:32):
the taya podcast is is the podcast that used to be the stream of david and so there
(00:45:36):
are people uh robin who just graduated uh high stakes change she went back and
(00:45:41):
listened from day one and is listening to the entire people do that yeah if you
(00:45:46):
want to hear the whole journey of the stream from the very first time i channeled
(00:45:51):
through all of the iterations of hey i'm doing a boot camp and hey it's called
(00:45:56):
In the beginning,
(00:45:56):
it was called abundance breakthroughs and then it was Taya and then it was this and
(00:45:59):
it was that.
(00:45:59):
And then my house burned down.
(00:46:00):
And,
(00:46:01):
you know,
(00:46:01):
all of these things that I went through in my journey to arriving here,
(00:46:06):
that's all archived.
(00:46:07):
If you're interested in all of that, it's there.
(00:46:09):
Yeah.
(00:46:10):
So it's you brought up a very interesting point.
(00:46:14):
I'm glad that you did it.
(00:46:15):
Maybe that's something that we need to think about.
(00:46:18):
If you feel like you are best served from hearing from trance channeling that is
(00:46:23):
brutally honest,
(00:46:24):
because my trance channeling could absolutely get me into a lot of trouble.
(00:46:29):
Yeah.
(00:46:30):
And I don't care, but you know, it's, it's, they'll be very honest about things.
(00:46:37):
That's always why I ask.
(00:46:38):
Cause I would rather the honest smack in the face.
(00:46:42):
Yeah.
(00:46:42):
than to not know.
(00:46:44):
Yeah.
(00:46:45):
And I believe I'm capable of doing that without trance,
(00:46:48):
just like I'm capable of sitting here talking about pricing and coaching programs
(00:46:52):
and what's real and what isn't and what you should do,
(00:46:54):
you know,
(00:46:55):
all of that,
(00:46:56):
that most people in my position don't ever talk about.
(00:46:58):
Right.
(00:46:59):
I still,
(00:47:00):
I do feel there's space for the channeling in going forward in the practice for
(00:47:08):
that reason,
(00:47:09):
like a sailor cat keeps the North star.
(00:47:13):
insight you know and there is value to that because that and i think i what i think
(00:47:19):
it sounds to me like what we want to steer away from is the gimmicky showmanship
(00:47:25):
aspect of it i have talked about internally recently about creating this sort of
(00:47:31):
taya network or mesh or matrix whatever you want to call it and it's about
(00:47:39):
exposing this to more and more people who will be aligned with it.
(00:47:44):
And we're doing more marketing and ads and things right now just to reach more people.
(00:47:49):
And the reason that we're doing that is not to convert people to Thaiism and say
(00:47:54):
that this is the only way you have to do it.
(00:47:56):
But I do see value and I've detuned my judgment of spending money on things like
(00:48:00):
that because I haven't in a long,
(00:48:01):
long time.
(00:48:02):
But now I see that we've built this fantastic technology and I want more people coming into it.
(00:48:08):
that are aligned with it, because I think there's value in this, not just for us individually.
(00:48:14):
And I know this is my ego.
(00:48:16):
I believe there is value in this for more and more and more of humanity to practice this.
(00:48:24):
The stream would not say that more and more of humans need to practice this.
(00:48:29):
The stream will say,
(00:48:30):
as you become wiser versions of yourselves,
(00:48:33):
more and more people are going to do something along these lines.
(00:48:36):
Understand that appreciation of all things is really where it's at.
(00:48:40):
But everyone is on their own journey and not everybody's on that path and not
(00:48:45):
everybody is,
(00:48:48):
people need to find their own way to it.
(00:48:50):
Yeah.
(00:48:51):
So the stream would say, just do your thing.
(00:48:55):
And I've done that for years.
(00:48:56):
Just do your thing and the right people will find their way to it.
(00:48:59):
And I did that.
(00:49:01):
And now I'm changing my tune a little bit by saying, but my ego still wants to do more of this.
(00:49:08):
I don't want to just be organic because when I go do a TikTok,
(00:49:12):
I know how to get a lot of views on TikTok and it's to sort of play the victim
(00:49:17):
thing.
(00:49:17):
You know, oh, they're out to get you.
(00:49:19):
Everyone's out to get you.
(00:49:20):
That does very well on TikTok.
(00:49:22):
You know,
(00:49:22):
I've done a couple of videos that kind of frame that a little bit and that's what
(00:49:26):
gets the most views.
(00:49:27):
I don't want to do that.
(00:49:28):
You know,
(00:49:28):
I would rather put a video out that gets a handful of views of people who really
(00:49:32):
get it than it gets a million views.
(00:49:35):
So how is this going to really mesh and grow and expand unless we get more creative
(00:49:43):
with how we share it?
(00:49:46):
Not in a you have to do this way,
(00:49:47):
but I like bringing my human ego and my creative mind back into this and not just
(00:49:53):
saying,
(00:49:53):
hey,
(00:49:53):
man,
(00:49:53):
I'm just going to sit on a mountaintop and I'm going to channel source and people
(00:49:57):
that want to come to the mountaintop can listen and gather around.
(00:50:00):
There's plenty of people doing that.
(00:50:01):
I think that's fine.
(00:50:02):
I don't want to do that.
(00:50:03):
I want to.
(00:50:04):
I have creative abilities.
(00:50:06):
I have knowledge now of technology.
(00:50:09):
I have the funding to be able to to invest in this and put it out there and then
(00:50:15):
exchange that investment with people that want to come and pay for training that's
(00:50:21):
going to benefit them.
(00:50:22):
And that's what the exchange is.
(00:50:24):
And I'm very transparent about that.
(00:50:27):
And the system that we built is designed to be very clear that you invest when you
(00:50:32):
want to invest.
(00:50:33):
You go deeper when you want to go deeper.
(00:50:35):
No one's going to tell you you have to go away from our world because you're not
(00:50:39):
yet ready for any of those things.
(00:50:41):
But we're also creating a path where the academy level work for anybody that really
(00:50:45):
wants to do this will be inevitable.
(00:50:47):
But it will also be something that pays for itself many times over.
(00:50:50):
And we'll demonstrate that over and over and over again.
(00:50:53):
So that's my transparency about coaching and about why things cost money.
(00:50:59):
A lot of people think anything spiritual should never cost money.
(00:51:03):
If I do anything that's sponsored right now on Meta,
(00:51:05):
oh,
(00:51:06):
this is just a sales pitch for your thing.
(00:51:09):
Well, yeah, I'm sharing my thing with you.
(00:51:11):
If you want to get in and get involved, then that's why I'm paying for an ad.
(00:51:15):
Of course, what pays for the ads?
(00:51:16):
People that choose to take the bigger programs.
(00:51:19):
What do they get from the bigger programs?
(00:51:20):
We always ensure that we're delivering
(00:51:23):
many times the investment in terms of what you get back.
(00:51:27):
And I have a trust pilot that keeps us honest with that.
(00:51:31):
You know,
(00:51:32):
the sentiment I would kind of,
(00:51:34):
I guess,
(00:51:35):
wrap up along that about the money thing is when people do say that,
(00:51:38):
you know,
(00:51:38):
as you said,
(00:51:39):
like they judge the fact that you
(00:51:41):
Yeah, it should all be free.
(00:51:42):
I should manifest my money.
(00:51:44):
And I've done that for years.
(00:51:45):
I have lived years where I shared this and never took a dime from it.
(00:51:48):
So I've lived that.
(00:51:49):
I know I can do that.
(00:51:51):
But do I want to keep doing that or do I want to turbocharge it?
(00:51:53):
What were you going to say?
(00:51:54):
I apologize.
(00:51:54):
Well,
(00:51:55):
the quote comes from Wallace Wattles,
(00:51:59):
one of his books,
(00:52:01):
I think it was Science of Being Great or something like that.
(00:52:07):
If you take the analogy of a book,
(00:52:09):
i have a book and i sell it at the store for 20 how much money did it cost for the
(00:52:15):
paper and the ink it's like pennies and i've made a huge profit is that fair but if
(00:52:21):
the ideas give the reader the ability to make millions of dollars and they only
(00:52:26):
spend 20 dollars in the book is that fair what's the
(00:52:30):
actually it doesn't matter if the if you get a profit from something but it
(00:52:34):
benefits the reviewer the the the consumer if they take it and they better
(00:52:39):
themselves for it it's fine um if i coerce someone to buy my book that's not of any
(00:52:45):
value then maybe i have wronged them but if i make you know then but but this is
(00:52:49):
not i i've been nothing i don't i don't believe anything survives for years that is
(00:52:55):
just a i just want to take people's money
(00:52:59):
I know a lot of coaches and a lot of people that are functioning,
(00:53:02):
making millions of dollars coaching.
(00:53:04):
It's a very lucrative thing to do.
(00:53:07):
And there's a lot of people in it.
(00:53:08):
Most people don't get there.
(00:53:10):
And a lot of people that get there thinking,
(00:53:12):
I'm just doing this because I know I can make a lot of money doing it.
(00:53:16):
Those folks don't stick around very long because if you don't have what we call
(00:53:20):
social proof that your thing works,
(00:53:23):
people are going to be very concerned about investing money in it.
(00:53:27):
And they should be.
(00:53:29):
And the last thing I would ever want to do is take somebody's money knowing that
(00:53:33):
I'm not going to give them 10 times that value or more back.
(00:53:39):
When I was in retail,
(00:53:40):
there were absolutely people sitting around that boardroom with me in retail that
(00:53:43):
only cared about the bottom line.
(00:53:46):
And I told everyone that worked for me that everything is an exchange.
(00:53:51):
And once we take somebody's money, it's our job to make them happy.
(00:53:57):
Some people you're never going to make happy.
(00:53:58):
That's just the way it is.
(00:53:59):
That's a small percentage.
(00:54:01):
Most people,
(00:54:01):
if we've taken their money,
(00:54:03):
it is our job now to make them happy,
(00:54:05):
to deliver on the promise.
(00:54:07):
And if you don't deliver on the promise in today's world, you're out of business pretty quickly.
(00:54:12):
That's just the way it is.
(00:54:14):
And that includes the coaching industry.
(00:54:16):
The coaching industry is maturing now.
(00:54:18):
It blew up.
(00:54:18):
It started before COVID.
(00:54:20):
It absolutely blew up during COVID.
(00:54:22):
And now we've seen the fallout from it.
(00:54:25):
The people that survived,
(00:54:27):
that blew up during COVID,
(00:54:29):
that survived post-COVID,
(00:54:31):
those people are offering something of real value,
(00:54:33):
in my opinion.
(00:54:35):
in my opinion,
(00:54:36):
because we've proven that we can ride out the peak and then we can ride out the
(00:54:42):
pit,
(00:54:43):
which post-COVID,
(00:54:44):
nobody was doing coaching anymore because everybody did it during COVID.
(00:54:48):
If they had the money and a lot of people had extra money in their pocket and
(00:54:51):
they're bored and they're at home and what do I want to do?
(00:54:53):
I want to work on me.
(00:54:54):
Well, now I've got a few thousand dollars to invest in a program
(00:54:59):
If those programs were worthy,
(00:55:01):
then you were still in business after COVID,
(00:55:04):
after 2022,
(00:55:06):
2023 and beyond.
(00:55:07):
That's my opinion as far as the industry goes.
(00:55:09):
We're way off topic from channeling now, but we brought the humanity back into it.
(00:55:13):
But don't think anybody that is putting anything out there,
(00:55:16):
whether they are doing paid advertising,
(00:55:19):
If they're spending their time doing it, there's an exchange going on of some sort.
(00:55:24):
Don't kid yourself that there's not.
(00:55:25):
They're getting something from it somehow or they simply wouldn't be doing it.
(00:55:29):
We do not live in a just goodness of your heart world because everyone has bills to pay.
(00:55:34):
And I don't know any billionaires that are out there teaching you how to be a billionaire.
(00:55:37):
They're out being bigger billionaires.
(00:55:40):
Yeah.
(00:55:42):
All right.
(00:55:43):
Well, this is a really good conversation as always.
(00:55:45):
We jumped all over the place, but hopefully we've provided some value for all of you listening.
