I'm peeling back the layers of resistance and shedding the skin of old paradigms. Join this audio diary of an overgrown kid, stumbling through self-discovery and unconventional truths with Eckhart Tolle's whispers as my compass. There will be contradictions, inward and outward epic adventures, and maybe some absurd laughter. Dancing in the shadows of unmet expectations, with breakthroughs illuminating the path - let's evolve together, one stumble and epiphany at a time. ✨ Epiphany San Carlos Epiphany SC Media Weekly sermons from the Church of the Epiphany in San Carlos, CA
