get too much further, I want you to just kind of talk about your story real quick. 00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:57.120 Um, however much you want to share, but how you, I don't know, your spiritual awakening or what whatever you you're you were overcome something. 00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:20.159 Well, um, I've always been very spiritually inclined, but I always had to hide it because unlike many, many people, I grew up in a home where anything that could be even vaguely attached to religion was forbidden. 00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:24.159 Oh, just absolutely forbidden. 00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:39.200 My father had a rage against religion, okay, and my mother was disappointed in religion, but they didn't make a distinction between spirituality and religion, right? 00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:43.919 So I always had to hide it, huh? 00:13:44.799 --> 00:13:50.720 And then I married my husband, who was a damaged Catholic. 00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:52.559 Yeah, and he felt the same. 00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:55.440 It's like, don't bring that shit in this house, yeah. 00:13:55.759 --> 00:14:02.000 You know, so my husband and I were very close. 00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:11.120 He was also an empath, we were very tight, and when he died in 2008, my world collapsed. 00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:22.799 Yeah, but it was the beginning of a much more dedicated spiritual life, okay, because it's all I had to draw on, yeah. 00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:26.639 And it had been inside you, yeah, probably. 00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:32.320 So it blossomed, it yeah, it came out in the open. 00:14:32.559 --> 00:14:33.919 I see that, yeah. 00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:40.720 And I realized, okay, the rest of the world isn't telling me not to bring this into the house, you know. 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:45.279 And oh, by the way, it's my house now, right? 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:58.320 So that was when I had my biggest spiritual opening because I could not imagine life without my husband. 00:14:59.440 --> 00:15:04.799 I went to bed every night for a year and a half begging him to come and get me. 00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:18.639 And it was only very gradually that I came out of that and realized, well, I I'm not dead. 00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:19.519 Yeah. 00:15:21.279 --> 00:15:22.960 So I guess I better get up. 00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:24.080 Right. 00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:48.720 But then the biggest opening happened many years later when I had a series of really bad medical events, and I was in the hospital staring at the ceiling, thinking, what's the spiritual reason that my body is falling apart? 00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:53.440 And the answer that came was you asked for it. 00:15:56.320 --> 00:16:00.480 Because I went to bed every night asking to die for a year and a half. 00:16:00.960 --> 00:16:01.279 Yeah. 00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:03.360 Here was my opportunity. 00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:04.399 Right. 00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:14.000 And at that point I realized I wasn't really asking for death, I was asking for peace. 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:20.080 And death was the only thing, the only route I saw at that moment. 00:16:20.399 --> 00:16:20.960 Right. 00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:31.200 So, in terms of my spirituality, every trauma, and oh my god, there's been so many, every trauma opened it up another step. 00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:32.000 Okay. 00:16:34.159 --> 00:16:39.200 And I find this is true with clients too. 00:16:39.759 --> 00:16:43.200 You know that their spirituality is an asset. 00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:44.480 Yeah. 00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:46.639 It's a support system. 00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:50.879 It's information. 00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:53.279 Yeah. 00:16:54.480 --> 00:16:56.720 And I've just never looked back. 00:16:57.759 --> 00:16:58.399 Oh, good. 00:16:58.480 --> 00:17:02.879 And so that was Yeah, you've about 16 years. 00:17:03.600 --> 00:17:04.880 18 to be exact. 00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:08.480 18, since he'd passed, right?
