The world feels louder, more polarized, and more volatile than ever.
Fear, outrage, and judgment are no longer side effects of modern life. They are the fuel.
In this episode, David Strickel explores why chaos isn’t new, why polarization is profitable, and how attention has quietly become the most valuable currency in the world.
Rather than taking sides, collapsing into cynicism, or pretending nothing is happening, this conversation points to a different option: understanding without reaction.
This is not about fixing the world.
It’s not about optimism or denial.
And it’s not about withdrawing from reality.
It’s about seeing clearly how the Matrix operates, why it feeds on emotional reactivity, and how sovereignty begins the moment you stop supplying energy to what you don’t want more of.
Tya is not a belief system.
It’s an operating system for clarity, emotional mastery, and internal stability inside an increasingly reactive world.

(00:00:02):
Welcome to the Tya Podcast.
(00:00:04):
Tya is an advanced operating system for life,
(00:00:07):
delivering personal sovereignty through elite emotional mastery.
(00:00:22):
The world crumbling is not new.
(00:00:24):
It's always being stress tested.
(00:00:26):
I talk a lot about the universal process of creation where high and low vibrations
(00:00:31):
serve a purpose.
(00:00:33):
There is no such thing as escaping a vibrational flow that includes both low and
(00:00:39):
high vibration as long as we're in physical.
(00:00:46):
What we see going on around us currently in the United States
(00:00:50):
is absolutely more chaotic than anything that I've seen in my lifetime.
(00:00:57):
Far more chaotic, in my opinion, than COVID.
(00:01:00):
COVID created some chaos,
(00:01:02):
absolutely,
(00:01:02):
and that was prolonged for far longer than most of us thought it was ever going to
(00:01:06):
be.
(00:01:07):
But we're seeing this unraveling of our government.
(00:01:11):
And I'm not talking about one side or the other.
(00:01:13):
I'm talking about all of it.
(00:01:16):
And in my opinion,
(00:01:17):
we're seeing this because as we collectively gather more information,
(00:01:24):
we gather more intelligence with our ability to communicate via technology.
(00:01:29):
We are questioning our institutions of control like never before.
(00:01:33):
So the reverence that people once had for government has eroded.
(00:01:39):
And there's a lot of elements of the government that we have come to understand in
(00:01:45):
the past 30,
(00:01:46):
40 years that are not what they are presented to be and not how they're presented
(00:01:51):
to be.
(00:01:51):
And certainly people that present themselves in a way that is not authentic to how
(00:01:55):
they're really operating behind the scenes.
(00:01:57):
So we know this.
(00:01:59):
So it's very easy to start just questioning government in general,
(00:02:04):
saying that it's all bullshit,
(00:02:06):
it's all fake,
(00:02:07):
it's all performative,
(00:02:09):
and it's all for-profit for the players that are involved,
(00:02:12):
especially at the highest levels.
(00:02:14):
That doesn't mean that there aren't people with good intentions entering politics
(00:02:19):
or working in government.
(00:02:20):
Certainly there are.
(00:02:22):
But it seems the higher you get,
(00:02:23):
the more corrupt it has the potential of being because the more money there is at
(00:02:29):
stake.
(00:02:29):
So without plunging into complete cynicism, I always say that anything is possible.
(00:02:38):
Most things are not probable.
(00:02:40):
It's important to be able to look at anything with great clarity and in the moment that
(00:02:48):
reframe away from fear and judgment to deeper understanding.
(00:02:53):
That is a cornerstone of the Tya practice.
(00:02:56):
So I can see something that looks like chaos,
(00:02:59):
that looks like bullshit,
(00:03:02):
that looks like corruption.
(00:03:04):
And instead of saying that's wrong and that should not be,
(00:03:08):
I don't bother with that because I do have a clear understanding of the universal
(00:03:12):
process of creation.
(00:03:13):
I see it show up in my life every day.
(00:03:15):
I see it show up in the lives of people that I work with every day, so I know it works.
(00:03:21):
If this process of creation,
(00:03:23):
and I call it universal because it works without fail,
(00:03:26):
if this is always at play and I know how creation operates,
(00:03:31):
and I know that we all operate in our own unique bubbles of reality,
(00:03:38):
And these bubbles of reality absolutely are influenced by what we're consuming.
(00:03:44):
I know all of these things.
(00:03:45):
So if I'm looking at something that looks chaotic,
(00:03:52):
that looks fear-inducing,
(00:03:54):
judgment-inducing,
(00:03:55):
it's all the same low vibration experience,
(00:03:58):
I know first and foremost that I am being fed that to get a reaction,
(00:04:03):
to cause me to have an opinion and take a side.
(00:04:08):
In fact,
(00:04:09):
how often are we told in our society that we have to have an opinion and we have to
(00:04:13):
take a side.
(00:04:14):
And if we don't,
(00:04:14):
there's something wrong with us and we're actually part of the quote unquote
(00:04:17):
problem.
(00:04:18):
We hear that a lot.
(00:04:19):
But what I have come to understand in my practice is that we don't have to take a side.
(00:04:25):
We don't have to have an opinion as far as demonization of something.
(00:04:31):
And the reason that for anyone who's choosing to practice Tya,
(00:04:35):
I would guide you away from demonization is because when you are demonizing
(00:04:39):
something,
(00:04:40):
you are giving it power.
(00:04:42):
You are energizing it.
(00:04:45):
This is true for something that's going on in your life,
(00:04:47):
and this is true for anything going on in the collective consciousness of any group
(00:04:52):
all the way out to all of humanity.
(00:04:55):
And as always with Tya, I always say, test this yourself.
(00:05:01):
Think about your life.
(00:05:03):
This is an evidential practice.
(00:05:05):
So what is the evidence of that?
(00:05:07):
Well,
(00:05:08):
notice that the things that we focus on in our lives,
(00:05:11):
especially things that we give a lot of power to,
(00:05:14):
something that we're really wanting and believing that is already ours or something
(00:05:18):
that we are really demonizing,
(00:05:19):
those things tend to show up and tend to linger in our lives.
(00:05:24):
These things
(00:05:26):
long-held limiting beliefs,
(00:05:29):
these things that we believe are wrong and shouldn't have happened in our past or
(00:05:34):
that are happening to us now,
(00:05:35):
the more we focus on them,
(00:05:37):
the more power we give to them,
(00:05:38):
the more they keep showing up for us.
(00:05:41):
This is true for the collective also because notice the things that we collectively
(00:05:47):
fear and judge intensify.
(00:05:51):
And there are certainly people who are in charge that understand that polarity has
(00:05:59):
a lot of power.
(00:06:00):
that being polarizing actually empowers them.
(00:06:04):
That's why they have no problem speaking directly to one group,
(00:06:09):
telling them exactly what they want to hear,
(00:06:11):
and continually doubling down on pleasing them no matter what,
(00:06:14):
while another group hates them,
(00:06:17):
demonizes them,
(00:06:18):
thinks that they're the worst thing ever,
(00:06:20):
and they just keep doing it.
(00:06:22):
They're not trying to bring everybody together and be liked.
(00:06:25):
Of course not.
(00:06:26):
There's far more power in polarization.
(00:06:30):
Because when you start settling things and bringing people together and things
(00:06:36):
start going really,
(00:06:36):
really well,
(00:06:39):
what happens?
(00:06:40):
People start doing well.
(00:06:42):
They start thriving.
(00:06:43):
They're no longer controlled by fear.
(00:06:46):
And fear is a significant control agent in our current age.
(00:06:53):
We are still highly controlled by fear.
(00:06:56):
Marketing is very fear-driven very often.
(00:06:59):
Certainly, politics is very fear-driven.
(00:07:01):
Very rarely do you hear what a politician really plans to do,
(00:07:05):
nearly as much as you hear about how horrible it is if the other person wins,
(00:07:09):
how bad life is going to be,
(00:07:11):
how awful things are going to get if they don't win the election.
(00:07:14):
That's what we hear.
(00:07:15):
That's what we've moved into.
(00:07:17):
That's the era that we're in now, a highly polarized era.
(00:07:21):
I believe that we are in this highly polarized era because we are becoming wiser beings.
(00:07:27):
We're becoming wiser versions of ourselves.
(00:07:30):
We are sharing information.
(00:07:32):
We are questioning authority.
(00:07:34):
We're questioning government.
(00:07:35):
We're questioning religion.
(00:07:37):
We're questioning all of these things,
(00:07:38):
and in our questioning,
(00:07:40):
we are somewhat exiting the matrix.
(00:07:42):
We're becoming more sovereign.
(00:07:44):
We are understanding that our well-being is not necessarily delivered by anything
(00:07:49):
external from us,
(00:07:50):
that our well-being is of mind first,
(00:07:53):
energy first,
(00:07:54):
and when we apply well-being
(00:07:57):
as our dominant vibration, we live in a heightened state of well-being.
(00:08:04):
That's what Tya has always been about.
(00:08:06):
That's the ultimate goal of the Taya practice,
(00:08:09):
is to ensure that we are moving through ever-increasing states of well-being,
(00:08:16):
of personal sovereignty,
(00:08:17):
and
(00:08:18):
from internal sources, meaning we do not need anything external from us.
(00:08:23):
The practice is all about going inward, becoming more sovereign versions of ourselves.
(00:08:28):
We use terms like clarity.
(00:08:30):
We use terms like emotional intelligence or emotional sovereignty, emotional mastery.
(00:08:36):
We're using those terms a lot lately because the four pillars of Tya are the practice.
(00:08:43):
the deliverable of the four pillars is ever increasing emotional mastery.
(00:08:49):
And when you have ever increasing emotional mastery going on,
(00:08:53):
then you are solving and healing all of your triggers.
(00:08:56):
And when you solve and heal all of your triggers,
(00:08:58):
you are not as susceptible to fear-based messages.
(00:09:04):
And fear-based messages are all about lowering your vibration,
(00:09:07):
making you dependent on something external from you so that you behave.
(00:09:10):
Okay.
(00:09:12):
Well,
(00:09:13):
I'm not guiding you not to quote unquote behave,
(00:09:15):
but you certainly don't have to behave in a way that is benefiting and pleasing
(00:09:20):
someone other than yourself to your detriment.
(00:09:25):
So as we collectively do this work to raise our vibration,
(00:09:29):
the matrix is doubling down on things that polarize.
(00:09:35):
Notice how we are becoming more polarized now than ever it seems.
(00:09:39):
Come take this side.
(00:09:42):
Have this identity.
(00:09:44):
Adopt this identity.
(00:09:45):
Be this thing.
(00:09:46):
And anything that is not this thing is wrong.
(00:09:49):
And it's a threat to you.
(00:09:51):
And it's such a threat to you that perhaps it must be destroyed.
(00:09:56):
That's what we're seeing right now.
(00:09:58):
And as much as Tya is a metaphysical practice,
(00:10:02):
I always say that Tya is metaphysics first with science and psychology peppered in
(00:10:08):
where it makes sense and where it has proven itself over time.
(00:10:12):
through application.
(00:10:14):
So from a metaphysical first perspective,
(00:10:18):
yes,
(00:10:19):
all creation is a product of consciousness,
(00:10:22):
conscious creation.
(00:10:23):
That's how we create our lives.
(00:10:25):
It's how the entire experience that we're in right now is created.
(00:10:29):
More importantly,
(00:10:31):
it's how you continue to create and allow well-being for yourself,
(00:10:35):
no matter what is going on around you.
(00:10:38):
no matter what your newsfeed or TikTok or social media is delivering to you.
(00:10:44):
And anytime you are doom scrolling through something that you know is lowering your
(00:10:49):
vibration,
(00:10:52):
I would always say,
(00:10:53):
first of all,
(00:10:54):
if you want to have that experience,
(00:10:55):
you're free to have it.
(00:10:55):
There's no rules and tie-in.
(00:10:57):
There's certainly no judgment.
(00:10:58):
But if you don't want to have that experience, you've got two choices.
(00:11:02):
You can either turn it all off, walk away from it,
(00:11:07):
Take all of those social media apps off your device and just stop paying attention
(00:11:12):
the way I stopped watching the news decades ago.
(00:11:16):
Or if you have done enough work to where you now are deep enough in a practice,
(00:11:23):
if not the Taya practice,
(00:11:24):
to be able to observe your surroundings,
(00:11:28):
even things that are being fed to you through media,
(00:11:33):
without being triggered,
(00:11:35):
without dipping into fear and judgment.
(00:11:38):
then you are able to really know and be aware of what's going on in the world
(00:11:44):
without it impacting you.
(00:11:45):
And as long as it's not impacting you, then...
(00:11:50):
you are able to just move through life and be in the matrix as much as you want,
(00:11:54):
which is,
(00:11:54):
to me,
(00:11:55):
a superior way or a more preferred way to operate than having to pretend like
(00:12:01):
certain things don't exist.
(00:12:03):
There are certainly podcasts out there that would consider themselves spiritual
(00:12:07):
where no one would ever talk about any of this.
(00:12:10):
Let's keep our vibe high.
(00:12:12):
Let's only focus on the positive.
(00:12:15):
If you can accomplish that, I think it's wonderful.
(00:12:19):
But what I find is that every time I interact with someone,
(00:12:23):
and I've been doing this work now publicly for over 10 years,
(00:12:28):
and in doing this work,
(00:12:31):
I have met so many people that talk about gratitude for everything all the time.
(00:12:37):
I say that Taya is the practice of appreciation of all things.
(00:12:40):
It's a little different than gratitude, however.
(00:12:42):
So these gratitude folks very often are...
(00:12:47):
still glossing over what exists in their lower vibrational field.
(00:12:53):
Because when you start getting to know them a little bit,
(00:12:55):
you start hearing things from them that are counter to this concept of gratitude
(00:13:00):
for all things.
(00:13:03):
You hear the shakiness in their voice.
(00:13:06):
You feel it in their vibe that there are some unsolved things that they're glossing over.
(00:13:10):
A lot of people call that spiritual bypassing.
(00:13:13):
I'm not a big fan of that because I think when you bypass that way,
(00:13:16):
there's always going to be a crash waiting for you.
(00:13:19):
With this amping up of chaos and uncertainty around the world,
(00:13:28):
you are going to be exposed to things,
(00:13:30):
or it's highly likely that you will be exposed to things,
(00:13:33):
at least in concept and idea through media,
(00:13:36):
that you might not be ready to see and experience.
(00:13:40):
It might trigger you.
(00:13:42):
If you are wanting to be a more sovereign version of yourself as the world seems to
(00:13:48):
collapse into further chaos,
(00:13:50):
then having a foundational system or practice like Tya or something like it is
(00:13:57):
extremely,
(00:13:58):
extremely useful.
(00:14:00):
And I'm not just here to sell you on the concept of Tya.
(00:14:03):
Of course, that's the theme of the podcast.
(00:14:05):
But really,
(00:14:06):
this is about understanding what is going on right now and what is likely to
(00:14:12):
continue to go on for a while.
(00:14:16):
And I have an opinion about this.
(00:14:20):
My opinion is that the tech leaders of our world who have become the leaders of our
(00:14:28):
world,
(00:14:28):
they are the wealthiest,
(00:14:31):
very often the most paid attention to people of our time.
(00:14:34):
You know who they are.
(00:14:34):
I don't have to name them.
(00:14:37):
They are all seemingly supporting this.
(00:14:43):
Why is that?
(00:14:45):
Well,
(00:14:46):
I believe and I've noticed that all of these folks,
(00:14:50):
if they didn't start there with technology,
(00:14:53):
they have certainly pivoted to being in the media business.
(00:15:00):
As we move forward,
(00:15:01):
and I'm not talking about necessarily in a year or two years,
(00:15:04):
this is how it's going to progress and it's going to happen so slowly we don't
(00:15:08):
really notice until we're fully there.
(00:15:12):
AI is absolutely going to unemploy most humans.
(00:15:18):
I believe the version of AI that most of us have access to right now is going to
(00:15:22):
seem like a black and white television from the past very,
(00:15:25):
very soon.
(00:15:26):
I believe it is far more capable than what is being offered to consumers right now
(00:15:31):
and will become far more capable very quickly.
(00:15:35):
So I can't think of too many things that AI is not going to be able to begin to do.
(00:15:42):
So what you're going to see is this mass shift in how we generate commerce in our
(00:15:49):
world,
(00:15:50):
how we exchange for the things that we want and need.
(00:15:54):
Now I've heard some people really melting down on TikTok saying that these
(00:15:57):
oligarchs want to end humanity as it's known and have a world that is just AI and a
(00:16:04):
few rich people and that's it.
(00:16:06):
I don't necessarily think that that's true at all.
(00:16:08):
I think having human emotionally based reactive beings is still good for commerce
(00:16:17):
and will continue to be good for commerce.
(00:16:20):
Because when you are selling something,
(00:16:23):
the last thing that you really want is logic in a lot of cases.
(00:16:28):
You want people to buy products based on emotion.
(00:16:32):
So emotion is just such a powerful tool,
(00:16:38):
especially the emotion of perceived potential joy or pleasure and fear.
(00:16:48):
All the same thing.
(00:16:49):
These are all hot button emotions for us.
(00:16:51):
We want joy.
(00:16:52):
We want pleasure.
(00:16:53):
We want freedom.
(00:16:54):
We want fun.
(00:16:55):
We don't want pain.
(00:16:57):
We don't want destruction.
(00:16:59):
We don't want poverty.
(00:17:00):
We don't want illness.
(00:17:01):
We don't want sadness.
(00:17:02):
We don't want suffering.
(00:17:03):
So we have all of these things that are categorized, but they are all hot button issues.
(00:17:08):
They are all key motivators for any physical being.
(00:17:11):
So we are certainly still more susceptible to marketing and persuasion than any
(00:17:18):
AI-driven being is ever going to be.
(00:17:20):
So I believe that humanity still serves a purpose for these folks.
(00:17:26):
And I absolutely believe that humanity serves a purpose for the earth environment.
(00:17:30):
We are continually regenerating this environment by stress testing it,
(00:17:35):
by stress testing everything.
(00:17:37):
In fact, that's the way creation occurs.
(00:17:39):
That's why low vibration exists.
(00:17:41):
So that every single creation will begin as something that we're very excited about.
(00:17:47):
We're giving a lot of positive energy to.
(00:17:49):
We're absolutely creating in that high vibrational state.
(00:17:52):
Anything is possible up there.
(00:17:54):
And then inevitably,
(00:17:55):
the vibration is going to shift on any topic because we're living in a polarized
(00:17:59):
environment.
(00:18:00):
We're not static.
(00:18:01):
Nothing is.
(00:18:02):
And the vibration around that creation is going to drop.
(00:18:07):
And when that vibration drops, it's going to be stress tested.
(00:18:11):
Some sort of storm is going to come through and challenge it.
(00:18:15):
The only way that we ever fail at anything,
(00:18:17):
as we all know,
(00:18:18):
is we just decide to stop because it seems to be falling apart or not working or
(00:18:22):
unraveling in some way,
(00:18:24):
demanifestation,
(00:18:25):
if you will.
(00:18:26):
And we decide just to give up and stop.
(00:18:28):
Well,
(00:18:28):
we have halted the process of creation when we choose to do this,
(00:18:31):
but it's always a choice.
(00:18:33):
We always have the option to keep moving through the stress test,
(00:18:37):
the challenge,
(00:18:38):
and allow that challenge to motivate us,
(00:18:42):
inspire us to create a better version of whatever it is.
(00:18:46):
This is true for a business.
(00:18:47):
This is true for a relationship.
(00:18:49):
This is true for a fortune, a health regime.
(00:18:51):
Whatever it is that we're creating, it's all the same.
(00:18:54):
Universally, it's all the same.
(00:18:55):
So everything is going to be stress tested.
(00:18:58):
Well,
(00:18:58):
what's happening right now is the United States government,
(00:19:02):
the Constitution,
(00:19:03):
is absolutely being stress tested.
(00:19:05):
So we don't know what it looks like from here.
(00:19:08):
But with all of this AI coming online,
(00:19:11):
what we're seeing is some very well-known,
(00:19:14):
extremely wealthy people all are pivoting to owning a piece of media.
(00:19:22):
And my theory around this is
(00:19:25):
is that they're all doing that because in the future,
(00:19:30):
we're probably going to be pushed to a point,
(00:19:33):
and I believe chaos is a wonderful change agent to get us there,
(00:19:37):
where we have a collapse of currency.
(00:19:41):
And I know that this is what crypto is supposed to be all about,
(00:19:44):
and I think that this is already in motion for sure.
(00:19:47):
But I do believe that we will see some sort of a currency,
(00:19:50):
global currency collapse,
(00:19:52):
where our current exchange system is moving through a stress test,
(00:19:56):
and it's breaking down because humans are becoming more and more unemployed because
(00:20:01):
of AI.
(00:20:02):
Stay with me here.
(00:20:03):
This is going to make logical sense,
(00:20:05):
and then you decide whether you want to adopt this as a theory or not.
(00:20:09):
So as this is going on,
(00:20:12):
And these folks know what's coming in terms of AI and they know how it's going to
(00:20:16):
impact humanity.
(00:20:18):
They have to have a change agent to allow this collapse of currency.
(00:20:23):
And then someone has to swoop in as the savior saying, guess what?
(00:20:28):
We've unemployed a lot of you.
(00:20:30):
We're going to continue to unemploy you, but we're very benevolent beings.
(00:20:34):
And we are going to issue basic human income, perhaps by nation or something of that nature.
(00:20:41):
But we will see folks moving to some sort of a guaranteed basic income that does
(00:20:48):
not necessarily require labor.
(00:20:51):
But the reason that doesn't work and will never work is because there is another law.
(00:20:58):
I do not call it a universal law.
(00:21:01):
I know it to be more of a physical law, the law of exchange.
(00:21:06):
Meaning, think about how we move through life.
(00:21:13):
We are always exchanging something.
(00:21:18):
Every relationship has a transactional element to it.
(00:21:22):
Every business, every job, everything that you buy, everything has this exchange cooked into it.
(00:21:31):
And I understand that it's more obvious in some areas than others.
(00:21:35):
Going to work and putting in labor and producing something,
(00:21:38):
you earn dollars,
(00:21:39):
you take those dollars,
(00:21:40):
and you go buy the things that you want and need.
(00:21:44):
Very clear commerce system of exchange.
(00:21:47):
Very, very clear.
(00:21:48):
But I remember when Facebook first came around.
(00:21:52):
This is a great example of exchange always being at play.
(00:21:56):
And everybody jumped on Facebook at the time.
(00:22:01):
Gosh, I'm going to reconnect with all my high school friends.
(00:22:03):
This is showing my age a bit here.
(00:22:07):
I'm going to connect with people that are of like mind, no matter where they are on the planet.
(00:22:12):
If they have access to Facebook, we can find each other.
(00:22:14):
We can get into a group and we can start exchanging ideas.
(00:22:17):
How wonderful that this great guy, Mark Zuckerberg, has created this platform and it's free.
(00:22:23):
How nice.
(00:22:25):
I remember the early days of Facebook.
(00:22:26):
It was literally just a feed of people that I knew what they were doing,
(00:22:30):
what was going on in their lives.
(00:22:32):
I'm catching up with people.
(00:22:33):
I'm kind of figuring out how people turned out or what's going on with people I
(00:22:36):
haven't seen in a long time,
(00:22:37):
friends,
(00:22:37):
family,
(00:22:38):
all of that.
(00:22:39):
It was just this charming little experience.
(00:22:44):
Then it turned into something different.
(00:22:47):
Because so many people liked it and so many people joined the platform,
(00:22:51):
it turned into inevitably an advertising platform.
(00:22:55):
Well, guess what?
(00:22:57):
That was the goal all along.
(00:23:00):
To get lots of people on the platform and monetize it,
(00:23:03):
not by charging them to use the platform,
(00:23:06):
but by making the users of the platform the product itself.
(00:23:09):
Now, the cat's been out of that bag for a long time now.
(00:23:12):
So we've seen the evolution of Facebook go from this charming little platform that
(00:23:19):
was growing rapidly and became monetized through ads,
(00:23:23):
which makes sense.
(00:23:24):
It's a business.
(00:23:25):
It costs money to run something like that.
(00:23:26):
So, of course, needing to monetize it is part of it.
(00:23:30):
And now it's morphed into this information platform where you are being fed
(00:23:37):
certainly certain types of information all the time.
(00:23:39):
It's a very different platform than it used to be.
(00:23:42):
And the way I look at Facebook today is I feel about Facebook kind of the way I
(00:23:47):
feel about walking into a shopping mall.
(00:23:49):
I walk into a shopping mall today and I'm a kid.
(00:23:52):
I was a teenager in the 80s and that was kind of a cool place to go hang out,
(00:23:55):
believe it or not,
(00:23:56):
when I was a teenager.
(00:23:57):
And you went and shopped there and it was sort of a town square, if you will.
(00:24:00):
It was kind of a cool place to be when I was a kid.
(00:24:03):
Now, I don't want to be in one for any reason.
(00:24:05):
If there's a store that only exists in the mall, I'm probably just going to shop online.
(00:24:09):
I don't want to be in that environment.
(00:24:10):
It's depressing.
(00:24:11):
It's weird.
(00:24:12):
It just seems very out of date now and I just don't want any part of it.
(00:24:16):
So,
(00:24:18):
I feel the same way about Facebook because it's just morphed into something very
(00:24:22):
different and there's a lot of information and there's a lot of things on there
(00:24:25):
that are obviously trying to grab our attention,
(00:24:28):
pull us or draw us into a polarized opinion and move us into a specific narrative.
(00:24:36):
And we see it, we know that.
(00:24:40):
That's a good example of how everything really is exchange at its root.
(00:24:45):
Everything is.
(00:24:46):
You can think of certain scenarios where you just can't see it.
(00:24:49):
If you go a little deeper,
(00:24:50):
realize,
(00:24:51):
yeah,
(00:24:51):
there is a transactional nature to that relationship as well.
(00:24:54):
Absolutely there is.
(00:24:56):
So if exchange is automatically cooked into everything in our environment,
(00:25:02):
then if we create this system of universal income,
(00:25:07):
And there's no jobs left.
(00:25:09):
Nobody can work a job anymore.
(00:25:11):
And everybody is earning the same amount of money.
(00:25:14):
And so essentially in that scenario,
(00:25:16):
we would end up living in the same type of home,
(00:25:18):
I would imagine,
(00:25:18):
eating the same kind of food,
(00:25:21):
taking on the same types of activities.
(00:25:23):
And what's going to happen is that if we level the playing field that way,
(00:25:28):
and sort of break down this pyramid that we live in now,
(00:25:31):
well,
(00:25:32):
inevitably,
(00:25:33):
ego is going to kick back in if it stops at all.
(00:25:36):
Well, what's going to happen with ego?
(00:25:39):
This person in this space is going to look to their left and right and think, oh, this is nice.
(00:25:46):
I want a little more.
(00:25:48):
I want to have just a little more than my neighbor.
(00:25:50):
My ego says that I deserve it.
(00:25:52):
I'm a little smarter than they are.
(00:25:54):
I'm a little more clever.
(00:25:55):
How can I get a little more out of life than they do?
(00:26:01):
And then the system would just start all over again,
(00:26:03):
but how do you do that when there's no jobs left?
(00:26:06):
Well, you have to become more clever and
(00:26:10):
A way that that ego can be captured and exploited by the folks at the top that are
(00:26:20):
already planning all of this is to understand that the product now is not going to
(00:26:29):
be paid for by labor.
(00:26:32):
It's going to be paid for through attention.
(00:26:36):
We're already moving in this direction.
(00:26:38):
It's already happening.
(00:26:40):
that what you pay attention to.
(00:26:42):
So what's going to happen is all of these oligarchs,
(00:26:46):
and we believe that it's a conspiracy,
(00:26:47):
and on some level maybe it is,
(00:26:49):
I believe that these high-level conspiracies are more of a vibration.
(00:26:53):
They're an unspoken conspiracy.
(00:26:54):
If you're telling me that the biggest egos in the world,
(00:26:59):
people that are multi-billionaires and trillionaires that wanna run everything and
(00:27:04):
are buying elections and owning politicians and really controlling things,
(00:27:08):
If they're deciding to split that pot evenly, that would be the biggest shock of my life.
(00:27:15):
Of course not.
(00:27:17):
They may be singing the same song and they may all be sitting together on
(00:27:21):
inauguration day celebrating the guy they got elected,
(00:27:23):
but...
(00:27:25):
certainly their mind is I'm smart and the guy next to me is really smart.
(00:27:28):
I'm a little smarter.
(00:27:30):
I'm going to be more clever than him.
(00:27:31):
This is human nature.
(00:27:33):
This is ego at play.
(00:27:34):
There's a reason that we have an ego.
(00:27:35):
There's a reason that we have that drive.
(00:27:37):
It keeps us moving through the experience.
(00:27:40):
We can detune ego while we want,
(00:27:42):
but if we're waking up another day,
(00:27:44):
something is driving us to do that.
(00:27:46):
And that is ego.
(00:27:48):
So yeah,
(00:27:50):
This ego comes into play,
(00:27:54):
and one of the oligarchs decides,
(00:27:57):
well,
(00:27:58):
to get more people on my platform,
(00:28:01):
I'm going to issue a reward for watching my platform and paying attention to my
(00:28:05):
thing.
(00:28:06):
And buying stuff through me.
(00:28:08):
I mean, that makes sense.
(00:28:09):
We already see that happening right now.
(00:28:11):
So they're going to say, I'm going to be a little more clever about how I go about doing this.
(00:28:14):
And I'm going to market this in a certain way so that these people out there that
(00:28:18):
want a little more are paying attention to me and not them.
(00:28:21):
So the system of commerce, the system of exchange just starts turning all over again.
(00:28:26):
Now,
(00:28:26):
the only reason I'm sharing this theory,
(00:28:28):
and it's just a theory,
(00:28:29):
is to detune everything that's going on now.
(00:28:37):
So if you're listening this deep into the episode and you're curious about what I'm
(00:28:43):
sharing,
(00:28:43):
I'm not sharing this to instill fear and judgment.
(00:28:46):
I will never do that.
(00:28:47):
If it sounds like I'm doing that, I'm always going to come back around to something different.
(00:28:51):
I promise you that.
(00:28:53):
Because that's how I operate.
(00:28:55):
That's what Taya is.
(00:28:57):
Yes, there's chaos going on.
(00:28:59):
Yes, there are things going on that are not my preference and never will be.
(00:29:03):
But instead of rushing to fear and judgment,
(00:29:06):
which is energy,
(00:29:08):
which I believe is contributing to more of the same,
(00:29:12):
whether it's for me or into the collective consciousness of humanity,
(00:29:16):
into any group,
(00:29:18):
I'm going to stop short of fear and judgment.
(00:29:22):
I'm going to look, and my catch there, I'm all about the catch.
(00:29:25):
I catch myself before these old habits break in.
(00:29:30):
Instead of fearing and judging this, I want to understand it more deeply.
(00:29:35):
And if you're just seeing a video clip of something,
(00:29:38):
even if in the clip you know it's not your preference,
(00:29:40):
you still don't know the full story.
(00:29:44):
So if I'm going to give it any time at all,
(00:29:47):
any energy at all,
(00:29:49):
if I'm not going to decide just to move on from it,
(00:29:51):
and it's always your choice whether you do or not,
(00:29:54):
I am then going to gather more information without allowing myself to dip into fear
(00:29:58):
and judgment.
(00:29:59):
Let me find out more about this.
(00:30:01):
Let me have some understanding of why this is happening this way.
(00:30:05):
What is the amped up energy at play that becomes so amped up that it becomes volatile?
(00:30:11):
It becomes combustible.
(00:30:13):
And then something major happens.
(00:30:15):
Somebody gets shot.
(00:30:17):
Somebody gets killed.
(00:30:18):
Something gets blown up.
(00:30:20):
A whole group of people perish.
(00:30:22):
A war starts.
(00:30:24):
There's always momentum that leads to these things.
(00:30:27):
And if you're a sovereign being,
(00:30:30):
then what you're doing is you are observing these things without feeding them.
(00:30:36):
And if you hear me say that and these words are not your preference,
(00:30:42):
you are right to turn this off and move away from it because I'm not speaking to
(00:30:46):
you.
(00:30:49):
Because if you were here to challenge this idea, it's okay to challenge it.
(00:30:53):
I have no problem with anybody challenging.
(00:30:55):
I'm never going to argue for it.
(00:30:57):
I'm just going to say,
(00:30:59):
I understand that most people are not in a place of readiness to detune on that
(00:31:04):
level.
(00:31:05):
And that's okay.
(00:31:06):
It doesn't mean that I'm better than or smarter than.
(00:31:09):
I have traveled very far down a path of conscious creation.
(00:31:12):
I have doubled down on it for many, many decades now.
(00:31:16):
It has always worked for me,
(00:31:17):
and the people that choose to give it power and adopt this mindset,
(00:31:21):
I see it working for them.
(00:31:22):
That's the only thing that I can promise to anyone is real evidence of how this works.
(00:31:29):
It's not delivering perfection, but my favorite thing in life is clarity.
(00:31:35):
Clarity.
(00:31:36):
I love understanding what makes something work, how something is actually transpiring.
(00:31:43):
What is the energy behind it?
(00:31:45):
How are we consciously creating these things unwanted and wanted?
(00:31:50):
It's my life's work.
(00:31:53):
So in thinking this way,
(00:31:56):
anytime I choose to pick up my device and see news or see something being shared,
(00:32:04):
usually it's on a platform like TikTok or something like that.
(00:32:06):
I'm certainly not going to a news platform.
(00:32:09):
I am stopping short of fear and judgment.
(00:32:14):
I'm observing fear.
(00:32:16):
If it does trigger something,
(00:32:17):
the first thing I'm going to do is set that down and go explore through meditation
(00:32:21):
what that trigger is.
(00:32:22):
What belief is still rooted in me somewhere that's allowing a trigger of any sort?
(00:32:27):
My intention is to be a sovereign being.
(00:32:29):
As a sovereign being,
(00:32:31):
I believe collectively we will have more solving power because I already have more
(00:32:37):
solving power in my life.
(00:32:38):
For the things that I really want to solve, I solve them.
(00:32:44):
As a sovereign being,
(00:32:46):
and as we become wiser versions of ourselves,
(00:32:50):
I believe more and more humans are going to move toward more emotional sovereignty,
(00:32:58):
more emotional mastery,
(00:33:01):
meaning that we don't pretend like the emotion doesn't happen or exist.
(00:33:05):
We use it as an exploratory tool.
(00:33:09):
to gather more information,
(00:33:10):
to detune fear and judgment,
(00:33:12):
have a deeper understanding,
(00:33:14):
and gain a level of appreciation for anything and everything that we observe,
(00:33:21):
witness,
(00:33:22):
or experience.
(00:33:23):
By appreciation, I always mean just that, deeper understanding.
(00:33:27):
Such deep understanding that there's no point in fearing and judging because we get
(00:33:31):
it,
(00:33:31):
even if we don't agree with it.
(00:33:34):
Even if we don't agree with it,
(00:33:35):
I will never agree with shooting and killing an innocent person.
(00:33:39):
I will never agree with that.
(00:33:40):
But instead of demonizing it,
(00:33:43):
because we have been demonizing murder for as long as history has been recorded,
(00:33:49):
and we've never solved it.
(00:33:51):
We've never solved it.
(00:33:53):
Mass murder,
(00:33:54):
senseless murder,
(00:33:55):
tragic murder,
(00:33:57):
all of these things we greatly fear,
(00:33:59):
and they don't stop.
(00:34:02):
And they won't stop until we stop fearing and judging and start taking on deeper
(00:34:08):
understanding of the energy of the drivers behind that type of creation,
(00:34:13):
behind that event.
(00:34:14):
Can we solve it?
(00:34:15):
Absolutely.
(00:34:16):
Can we solve anything and everything that's important to us?
(00:34:21):
Absolutely.
(00:34:23):
But thinking in terms of I'm going to solve unjust murder just with my mind,
(00:34:30):
of course I'm not saying that.
(00:34:33):
I'm saying collectively we can, but it starts independently.
(00:34:40):
It starts with us being more sovereign versions of ourselves and not allowing fear
(00:34:45):
to rule us,
(00:34:47):
to control us.
(00:34:49):
Understanding what's going on.
(00:34:52):
I shared that scenario about currency and oligarchs earlier,
(00:34:56):
not to instill fear and judgment,
(00:34:58):
but to simply allow all of us that care to listen to me to zoom out and understand
(00:35:04):
what's happening so that we don't have to fear and judge it.
(00:35:07):
We don't have to say, why?
(00:35:08):
I don't understand.
(00:35:09):
This is so senseless.
(00:35:10):
Why chaos?
(00:35:11):
Why are we allowing all this?
(00:35:12):
Why are both sides, both political parties allowing all this?
(00:35:16):
Because they are.
(00:35:19):
We're seeing more and more clearly that both parties are really just the same thing.
(00:35:24):
They co-opt different groups to instill fear,
(00:35:26):
to stay in power,
(00:35:27):
and their power is more about their own personal enrichment more times than not.
(00:35:31):
Period.
(00:35:34):
That's current day politics.
(00:35:35):
It's always been there.
(00:35:36):
It's just become, we're becoming more aware of it.
(00:35:39):
And because we're becoming more aware of it, it's becoming more pronounced.
(00:35:43):
That's why it seems more ridiculous now.
(00:35:45):
Because to get attention now, you've got to be ridiculous.
(00:35:49):
You've got to do something really outlandish and outside the box to get somebody's attention.
(00:35:54):
I understand that.
(00:35:56):
That's not necessarily wrong.
(00:35:57):
It's just where we are.
(00:35:59):
There's so much information all the time being offered that the one that is the
(00:36:04):
noisiest or the most disruptive or the most polarizing is the one that wins
(00:36:08):
attention.
(00:36:11):
We are clearly in an attention economy,
(00:36:13):
and we're going to move deeper and deeper and deeper into that.
(00:36:16):
That's not a prediction of the future.
(00:36:18):
That's just clear evidence of everything that we're seeing now being stated out loud.
(00:36:22):
So if we know that, we don't have to fear it.
(00:36:25):
We don't have to judge it.
(00:36:26):
We can gain a deeper understanding of it.
(00:36:28):
We can start discerning the difference or start really understanding the difference
(00:36:33):
between discernment of preference and judgment,
(00:36:37):
which is when we label something as this shouldn't be,
(00:36:40):
it shouldn't exist,
(00:36:41):
that shouldn't be happening.
(00:36:43):
There's far more emotional energy offered in the should not be version of preference.
(00:36:50):
Far more.
(00:36:52):
And so that's when we get into bringing back these unwanted aspects of our lives
(00:36:58):
again and again and again and again.
(00:37:01):
Because even if our conscious mind is trying to move on to something that is more desirable,
(00:37:08):
For example,
(00:37:09):
if we're always finding ourselves broke and we start making more money and things
(00:37:14):
start working and we're saying affirmations and we're really paying attention to
(00:37:17):
conscious creation and we're thinking positively and maybe we're working harder or
(00:37:21):
smarter and we're doing all the things that we're supposed to do.
(00:37:24):
If the subconscious mind doesn't fully support that, there's always going to be this correction.
(00:37:30):
There's always going to be this sort of crash or correction to that because you are
(00:37:35):
stress testing your subconscious belief system.
(00:37:38):
So that's why we work with the subconscious so much,
(00:37:41):
especially at the academy level with Taya,
(00:37:44):
because that's where real change comes from.
(00:37:47):
That's why our first course is called High Stakes Change.
(00:37:50):
If it's really important to you and you want to do work at this level,
(00:37:54):
then the stakes are higher.
(00:37:55):
Come here when the stakes are high and you really want to change because it's all
(00:37:59):
about going from the concept of what Taya is,
(00:38:03):
those four pillars that we talk about on here all the time,
(00:38:06):
Operating your life from that concept of polarity and vibration,
(00:38:11):
emotional mastery,
(00:38:13):
all these things that we're always talking about,
(00:38:15):
to study,
(00:38:16):
which is reading the book,
(00:38:18):
to academy level,
(00:38:20):
where you are going to come and work with the coaches and myself to start rewiring
(00:38:24):
the subconscious level so that you don't have the crashes anymore,
(00:38:28):
so that you can move through the stress test,
(00:38:31):
utilizing that period for information.
(00:38:35):
So all of this discussion about government collapse and currency collapse and all
(00:38:42):
of the amped up chaos,
(00:38:44):
it really is just about how we choose to frame it for ourselves and collectively.
(00:38:53):
And what will happen with this practice,
(00:38:55):
as more and more people practice it,
(00:38:57):
yes,
(00:38:57):
we're all plugged into a collective consciousness.
(00:38:59):
Yes,
(00:39:00):
we can start humanity moving in a direction where more and more people are
(00:39:05):
operating this way with these solving,
(00:39:07):
healing practices.
(00:39:09):
creative power that we call source, which in my opinion is not a deity.
(00:39:14):
It's not human-like.
(00:39:16):
It's not anything looking to be worshipped or obeyed or anything like that.
(00:39:19):
It's simple creative energy, and we see it around us all the time.
(00:39:24):
The example that I like to give for that is that notice that a forest can have a
(00:39:27):
storm come through,
(00:39:29):
create destruction,
(00:39:31):
and then the forest,
(00:39:32):
because of that destruction,
(00:39:33):
will actually eventually grow back even more lush and stronger than it was before.
(00:39:39):
That's source.
(00:39:41):
The storm that came through was a polarized separation from source that caused a
(00:39:46):
combustible event.
(00:39:47):
That's what low vibration is for.
(00:39:49):
That's the purpose of it.
(00:39:51):
But the storm ultimately makes everything there stronger.
(00:39:58):
So if we are weathering a storm right now in the United States, perhaps globally,
(00:40:05):
with governments sinking into more chaos,
(00:40:09):
with more unrest,
(00:40:11):
perhaps more war looming,
(00:40:14):
collapse of currencies,
(00:40:15):
recessions,
(00:40:16):
global recessions.
(00:40:18):
If all of that is coming and we're fearing it, we're creating it.
(00:40:24):
We're promoting it.
(00:40:27):
And I know people that operate more in the matrix are going to say things like,
(00:40:33):
well,
(00:40:33):
I need to be aware and I need to have an opinion and I need to take a side.
(00:40:37):
I need to fight this.
(00:40:40):
That's just a matrix tactic.
(00:40:43):
to draw all of us into it.
(00:40:46):
As more and more of us are exiting the matrix with ideas such as what I share here,
(00:40:51):
yeah,
(00:40:51):
the matrix is going to double down.
(00:40:52):
It's going to come on stronger.
(00:40:54):
It's an energy.
(00:40:56):
It's a vibration.
(00:40:56):
It wants to draw us back in.
(00:40:59):
Oh,
(00:40:59):
you're going to say that politics and religion and borders and government and all
(00:41:04):
of these things are really just human constructs?
(00:41:08):
that you really don't have to be bound by those things.
(00:41:12):
And we've had a lot more people move toward ideas such as that in recent years.
(00:41:16):
Well, here's something scarier.
(00:41:19):
You need to get back into the matrix to feel safe.
(00:41:22):
All of these polarized identities,
(00:41:26):
I know you already know this if you're listening to me,
(00:41:28):
they just exist to make people feel safe.
(00:41:31):
I'm a this,
(00:41:32):
and my being of this makes me right,
(00:41:35):
and everyone that isn't the same as me is wrong.
(00:41:38):
Well,
(00:41:41):
the challenge to that is,
(00:41:43):
if you feel so steadfast in your identity,
(00:41:49):
why do you need anyone else to agree with you?
(00:41:54):
Why do you need anyone else to believe the same as you to validate your beliefs?
(00:42:02):
You don't.
(00:42:03):
You just don't.
(00:42:05):
If you're a sovereign being, you are of sovereign mind first.
(00:42:09):
And whatever's going on around you is just a stress test for your own sovereignty.
(00:42:17):
What could possibly go on that I am going to fear so much that it modifies my behavior?
(00:42:26):
In the moment, things going on, a reaction to something that's actually already happening.
(00:42:31):
Yeah, that's what fear is for.
(00:42:33):
If a bus is racing toward me, the fear mechanism is going to kick in.
(00:42:36):
I'm going to get the hell out of the way.
(00:42:37):
Of course I am.
(00:42:39):
That's what fear is really for.
(00:42:40):
But it's been co-opted for millennia now.
(00:42:44):
Throughout recorded history, fear has been co-opted.
(00:42:47):
Oh, it's not just the bus coming at you.
(00:42:49):
It's your credit report.
(00:42:51):
It's the grades that you got in school.
(00:42:54):
It's your level of education.
(00:42:55):
It's what your boss thinks of you.
(00:42:58):
It's the next recession.
(00:42:59):
It's the stock market.
(00:43:01):
It's what your children think of you.
(00:43:02):
It's all these things that you're supposed to fear and you're supposed to judge
(00:43:06):
because you fear them.
(00:43:09):
And what happens?
(00:43:11):
We pay attention to it.
(00:43:12):
We focus it.
(00:43:12):
We get more of it.
(00:43:15):
The antidote to that is sovereignty.
(00:43:18):
The antidote to that is detuning any and every fear that you've got,
(00:43:22):
all the way up to and including death,
(00:43:26):
up to and including war,
(00:43:29):
up to and including something bad happening to someone that you care about.
(00:43:35):
I'm not saying that you don't have a preference and don't get to have an opinion.
(00:43:39):
Certainly, the people that I care about, I want them to do well.
(00:43:42):
I want them to be healthy and happy.
(00:43:44):
I want everyone to be healthy and happy, certainly.
(00:43:47):
But am I going to waste energy fearing something happening to one of them?
(00:43:55):
Am I going to utilize my focus on paying attention to exactly what I don't want
(00:44:01):
from me or anyone else?
(00:44:05):
Not for very long, if at all.
(00:44:07):
That's sovereignty.
(00:44:10):
And that's what this practice delivers.
(00:44:13):
So anytime you listen to us,
(00:44:15):
that's what you're going to hear,
(00:44:17):
how we become more sovereign versions of ourselves.
(00:44:21):
I am happy to talk about current events.
(00:44:24):
There's no reason to hide from them.
(00:44:26):
There's no reason to fear them.
(00:44:27):
There's no reason to judge them as something that shouldn't be.
(00:44:30):
We can stop at preference.
(00:44:32):
And then anytime we see something that we don't agree with or fully understand,
(00:44:38):
the first reaction by default can become,
(00:44:42):
I want to know more about this.
(00:44:43):
I want to understand it deeper.
(00:44:45):
I want to gain at least a modicum of appreciation,
(00:44:49):
even for the one that's doing the thing that's not my preference,
(00:44:52):
even for the one pulling the trigger.
(00:44:56):
It's not easy.
(00:44:56):
It takes work.
(00:44:58):
It takes time.
(00:45:00):
But that's what the practice is.
(00:45:02):
