💫 What if peace doesn’t depend on liking your life? 💫
What if peace doesn’t require you to like your circumstances, your job, or even your partner’s habits? In this candid and luminous session, Hope invites you into a radically simple practice: accept your inner state—dislike, fear, longing—without flinching, and let that honesty transform perception from the inside out.
From the now-legendary “beans” story to relationship landmines, we uncover how presence turns resistance into clarity and how forgiveness isn’t moral bookkeeping—it’s a felt shift in interpretation that often ends in laughter.
We unpack the belief in scarcity: why it feels so real, how it scripts our days, and how to unwind it by meeting its bodily signature before chasing its stories. You’ll hear practical ways to approach aging and illness as cultural hypnosis rather than fate—and remember that while tiredness is surface weather, the witness never tires.
Topics include:
- Holy relationship and seeing sinlessness without tolerating harm
- Boundaries as expressions of love, not fear
- Manipulation, shame, and the healing power of transparency
- Looking at charged symbols like abortion through non-judgment and truth
Threaded through it all is a living reminder: longing points home.
You can be both desire and fulfillment right now—not by fixing the world, but by withdrawing belief from fearful thoughts and asking for a different interpretation. That’s where miracles happen, play returns, and even a “no” feels like kindness.
