“Your potentiality is far greater than you understand.” — message through Carol Collins channeler for The Teachers and America’s Medium
Potentiality is a doorway, an invisible threshold that separates the now from the vast unknown of our future. It’s a space brimming with possibility, where the choices we make and the emotions we carry color the landscape of what’s to come.
On this episode of the Awakening Series with Carol and the Teachers, along with Lisa and Michael embark on a powerful conversation on “potentiality” – the idea that our future moments are influenced by the emotions and intentions we bring to the present. The awareness of potentiality empowers us to be active participants in shaping our own tomorrows.
Carol and the Teachers share the wisdom nugget that the seeds of tomorrow’s experiences are sown in the fertile ground of today’s feelings, thoughts, and actions. By nurturing positive emotions and clear, purposeful intentions in the present, we cultivate a trajectory toward a fulfilling and meaningful future. The messages, from the Teachers through Carol, offer valuable insights into the nature of the soul, the power of positive manifestation, and the joy of intuitive living. Potentiality invites us to recognize the immense power we hold in shaping our destiny through the conscious and deliberate choices we make empowering us to turn our dreams and aspirations into reality.

Passionate Passion - Episode 127
Wednesday May 29, 2024
Wednesday May 29, 2024
“Find your passion, whatever it may be. Become it, and let it become you, and you will find great things happen FOR you, TO you and BECAUSE of you.” – T. Alan Armstrong
There’s a subtle but important distinction between being passionate about something and being passionate about passion itself. Passion fuels curiosity. It can be a guiding light that helps us discover what truly matters to us and gives our life a sense of purpose.
On this week’s show, Lisa and Michael explore how being passionate about our passion can act as a driving force that infuses our lives with meaning and joy. When we passionately pursue what we are passionate about, we engage deeply and fully with the world around us. A quote from Oprah Winfrey beautifully captures the essence of pursuing passion, “Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.” Becoming actively engaged in things that excite us creates a positive energy that spills over into other areas of our lives. This engagement leads to a heightened state of awareness and enthusiasm, creating a sense of exuberance for life.
We will be sharing our thoughts on how embracing life with passionate passion helps us cultivate an intrinsic motivation and a deep curiosity about life and its possibilities. Being passionate about passion is about embracing the journey of exploration, self-discovery, and growth. It’s about nurturing that spark within ourselves that allows us to find joy, meaning, and a sense of purpose in the things that truly excite us.

Seeing Through the Eyes of Love - Episode 126
Thursday May 23, 2024
Thursday May 23, 2024
“Love opens our eyes and allows us to see the beauty of everything.” — Roy T. Bennett
Life presents us with a constant dance between two viewpoints: to peer through the clouded lens of fear, or to embrace the openhearted perspective of love. The eye of fear is a place shrouded in shadows, where possibilities shrink and anxieties loom large. It’s a vantage point where negativity can block our vision like storm clouds, and challenges appear to morph into insurmountable obstacles. However, within us lies another perspective – the eye of love. Love, bathes us in the warm glow of optimism, our hearts expand, and potential unfolds like a vibrant sunrise.
On this week’s show, Lisa and Michael explore embracing the transformative power of love over allowing fear to dictate our reality. We will be delving into how when we focus on love, fear loses its power. Just as entering the eye of a hurricane disrupts the storm’s destructive force, choosing love disarms negativity’s grip allowing us to let go of the illusions of doubt, limitation, and the paralyzing obstacles created by the “what-ifs.” Discover how choosing to see through the eyes of love as our guiding force empowers us to act with courage, to dream boldly, and to pursue our goals with passion and determination. Through love, we are encouraged to take positive risks, build meaningful relationships, and approach challenges with a mindset of growth and resilience.
he choice to view life through the eyes of love allows us to transcend the limitations imposed by fear and to step into a reality rich with potential and joy. By choosing love as our guiding principle, we align ourselves with the higher path of fulfillment and purpose, creating a life that reflects our highest ideals and deepest desires After all, as James Barrie wrote, “When the greatest dreamers wake up, and find that it was a dream, they go out and make it real.”

Practically Perfect - Episode 125
Wednesday May 15, 2024
Wednesday May 15, 2024
“The goal is to FEEL perfect,not be perfect. Feeling perfection brings perfection, so feel it until it arrives.” — Sirius Joy
Imagine looking at a painting that is considered a masterpiece, each brushstroke, while not perfect on its own, contributes to the overall beauty of the final artwork. Our lives are like those masterworks — a collection of moments, that when we take a step back from the canvas of our lives, enables us to see how each moment adds a unique contribution to the bigger picture.
Join Lisa and Michael for an exploration into the distinction between feeling perfect and striving to be perfect in our relentless pursuit of achievement and success. Feeling perfect is about accepting ourselves exactly as we are, recognizing our inherent worthiness and embracing our imperfections as part of what makes us uniquely human. On the other hand, the drive to be perfect is rooted in external validation, fueled by unrealistic standards and the fear of falling short.
We will be delving into prioritizing feeling perfect over striving to be perfect, as a means of unlocking a profound sense of freedom and self-compassion. By embracing imperfection and celebrating progress over perfection, we open ourselves up to a world of possibility and potential where every experience is an opportunity for growth and self-discovery. We learn to embrace the journey, with all its twists and turns, knowing that each step forward is a testament to our resilience and courage. As we cultivate a mindset of self-compassion and acceptance, we begin to realize that perfection is not the goal; rather, it is the journey of becoming our most authentic selves. Discover how recognizing the beauty in our imperfections allows us to paint a picture of a life that’s perfectly imperfect, beautifully unfolding with every step we take.

Triumph Through Transformation - Episode 124
Wednesday May 08, 2024
Wednesday May 08, 2024
Life can throw its fair share of curve balls. But those curve balls, can serve as the catalyst to help us develop the inner strength, resilience and confidence face any challenge with grace and strength.
Transformation is a continuous journey, not a destination Join Lisa and Michael for a powerful conversation about how any challenge, even those that may feel insurmountable, can be transformed into rich opportunities for growth. We will be delving into the how using obstacles as stepping stones for personal growth and learning, these perceived obstacles can provide us with a newfound sense of inner strength. External circumstances lose the power to disrupt our inner sense of calm and we are able to navigate life’s storms with a steadier hand. In the words of The Alchemist author, Paulo Coelho, “When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.” This belief underscores the ripple effect of personal transformation—by bettering ourselves, we inherently improve our surroundings.
In essence, the journey of transformation is about aligning our deepest values with our everyday actions, transforming the way we live and interact with the world. It’s a continuous process that enriches our lives, providing clarity and purpose in the complexities of daily life. This alignment not only sees us through challenges but turns them into avenues for triumph and self-discovery. It’s a transformation worth cherishing, one that empowers us to create a life that truly reflects our worth.
“It is what we make of our challenges that reveals the true measure of our intentions.” — Paulo Coelho

Expanding The Perimeter of Possibilities - Episode 122
Monday Apr 22, 2024
Monday Apr 22, 2024
Imagine gazing out at the ocean’s edge. The vastness before us represents the full potential of what we can achieve. Yet, the shoreline, the line between sand and water, can symbolize the limitations we often perceive – our current reality. But what if the key to unlocking a world of possibilities lies just beyond the horizon of what we believe is real?
Within each of us lies a vast ocean of possibilities, but society often bombards us with limiting beliefs about what we can or can’t achieve. These assumptions and limiting beliefs often keep us confined within a narrow strip of reality. Join Lisa and Michael as we explore how the key to reaching for and attaining what seems just beyond our reach, lies in believing in our potential just a little bit more than our current circumstances might suggest.
As Helen Keller said, “The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but not vision.” We can choose to not allow societal limitations to blind us to our true potential. Lisa and Michael will be delving into how believing in our potential to achieve anything we set our minds to, allows us to vibrate at a frequency that attracts the resources, knowledge, opportunities, and connections needed to make our dreams a reality. By choosing to see the world through a lens of possibility, not restriction, we are able to align with the abundant potential that already exists within each of us. When we shift our perception — we see possibilities where we once saw obstacles. If we believe a little bigger, match the frequency of success, and expand our perimeter of possibility, the universe will conspire to meet us there!

Imagine a Door Marked Dreams - Episode 121
Sunday Apr 14, 2024
Sunday Apr 14, 2024
Imagine a door marked “Dreams.” Behind it lies a universe of possibilities you haven’t even dared to dream of. Allowing is the key that unlocks that door. On this week’s show Lisa and Michael explore how often times life’s circumstances can feel like a cage, and other people’s beliefs can be the bars that hold us back. But what if the key to unlocking the door to our dreams lies not in forceful struggle, but in the art of allowing? What if it is as simple as creating space for possibilities beyond our perceptions of our current limitations.
Walt Disney once said, “All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.” When we open ourselves to the flow of life and to embracing the unknown, we allow for serendipitous encounters, unexpected opportunities, and a path that unfolds in magnificent and unexpected ways. We will be delving into why going beyond our present circumstances and allowing ourselves to dream wildly, opens the door to a life that defies limitations. So take a deep breath,open the door, allow the big dream to unfold, and let the adventure begin!

Breathe in Positivity - Episode 120
Monday Apr 08, 2024
Monday Apr 08, 2024
Take a moment to imagine life as a vast ocean. Sometimes, we get can caught in rough waters, feeling as if we have been tossed and turned by forces seemingly out of our control. But what if there was a hidden power within these waves, a way to transform them into a force that rather than dragging us under instead propels us forward? That power is positivity.
Join Lisa and Michael as we explore the power of consciously choosing positivity. Positivity isn’t about ignoring challenges or pretending everything is perfect. It’s about consciously shifting our perspective, choosing to see the blessings hidden within even the most difficult situations.
We all have the ability to radiate an energy that attracts positive experiences and people. On this week’s show, we will be sharing our thoughts on the power of taking a moment to breathe in positivity whenever we find ourselves caught up in our perception of a negative current. Our thoughts are truly powerful, we become a magnet for the things we focus on. By consciously breathing in positivity, we can transform our perspective, attract what we desire, and ultimately, manifest our dreams. When we focus on gratitude for the good things in our lives, big or small, we create space for more good things to flow in. We become a beacon of optimism, attracting others who share our positive vibration. It’s the Law of Attraction in action – you become a magnet for the things you focus on. The power to create a wave of positivity lies within each of us. Breathe it in, allow positivity to transform, and watch how easy it is to create smooth sailing towards a life filled with joy, peace and love.

Our Inner Definition of Love and How We Shape Our Reality - Episode 119
Thursday Apr 04, 2024
Thursday Apr 04, 2024
Our inner definitions about ourselves and our core beliefs are the lenses through which we perceive and interact with the world around us. They shape our reality in profound ways, influencing the opportunities we see, the choices we make, and the experiences we attract into our lives. When we hold beliefs of self-worth and self-compassion, we cultivate a reality that reflects those beliefs, filled with abundance, joy, and fulfillment. Conversely, if our inner definitions are rooted in self-doubt or self-criticism, our reality may be characterized by limitations, struggle, and dissatisfaction. Join Lisa and Michael as we explore how we create our reality through the definitions and beliefs we hold. As Bashar, the channeled entity known for his insights on reality creation, reminds us, “Definitions create limitations.” This succinct statement underscores the profound influence our definitions have on the world we perceive. The way we define ourselves sets the boundaries for how we experience life. Our beliefs about ourselves act as self-fulfilling prophecies, shaping our thoughts, emotions, and actions in ways that reinforce those beliefs. Our core beliefs shape our perception of the world. If we believe happiness is elusive, we might constantly chase fleeting moments of joy. Conversely, believing in our capacity for happiness allows us to cultivate lasting fulfillment. The power, however, lies in our ability to rewrite the script of how we define ourselves. By consciously examining our inner definitions of self-love and our core beliefs, we can begin to dismantle limitations. Through exploring what true self-love means to each of us, independent of societal pressures or past experiences we can cultivate a belief in our inherent worthiness and embrace our unique strengths. With this newfound awareness, we can begin to cultivate a deep sense of self-love, one that radiates outwards and shapes our reality. When we believe we are worthy of love and respect, we project a magnetic energy that attracts positive experiences and supportive relationships. Remember, as Bashar says, “You are the creative force of your reality.” As we align our inner world with love and positivity, we magnetize experiences that uplift and inspire us, creating a life that is truly worth living. We can choose our own definitions. By cultivating self-love and nurturing empowering beliefs about ourselves, we can create a reality that reflects the beauty, abundance, and infinite potential that reside within each of us.
