A DECADE+ OF STORYTELLING POWERED BY THE BEST WRITERS ON THE PLANET

BE PART OF THE LEGACY

TAMPA BAY • FEBRUARY 23-24 2026

This FINAL encore experience will be unlike any other. Because like everything we do, it's been "reimagined" from beginning to end. It's not a virtual or hybrid event. It's not a conference. It's not a seminar, a workshop, a meeting, or a symposium. And it's not your typical run-of-the-mill everyday event crammed with stages, keynote speeches, team-building exercises, PowerPoint presentations, and all the other conventional humdrum. Because it's up close & personal by design. Where conversation trumps presentation. And where authentic connection runs deep.

Love is the Bridge Between You and Everything

Love is the bridge between you and everything.

—Rumi

Many people today in America are sitting in front of their phones, TVs, and computers in mere despair. Many are feeling surprised our Capital experienced such violence and ignorance, and that adversity is being expressed in a country that quickly defines itself as the land of the free and by our democracy.

The truth of the matter is we have not been free for a very long time.

We are enslaved to greed, enterprise, pharmaceuticals, false prophets, and so much more. The Declaration of Independence had possibilities yet required each individual of such creeds to grow into them. Most never have and sadly many never will.

Our country is one of the most desired in the world for the illusion that we have it made, dreams come true, you can be a celebrity or better yet — you can be rich. Yet the deeper truth behind the illusion is that we are still working from a place of darkness into the light. We are still rewriting false stories and untruths even as simple as how we were discovered.

We are still retrieving our souls, for we have lived behind so many false lies told by the white man and retold over and over again. There is one thing in our society and our nation that is self-evident today. We are craving leadership that stands for all of us, one that sees beyond our shadows and brings us to the new hope of glory which is US. Not me and only me but WE.

As a Spiritual Leader, what I know to be true is this is a necessary space as individuals for everyone to get to. Spirituality achieved through darkness is a deep-rooted space where we go to when we finally see the light for the necessity to be a contributor to more than ourselves. I know in my own life, I had to surrender to something much greater than myself in order to experience alignment and my connection to the Universe.

Never in my lifetime have I served my country under leadership which exemplifies extreme division. And people who were not grounded in their own strong beliefs have allowed themselves these past four years to get caught up in divisive language. Our office of the United States elects officials who stand for all parties, not one.

I know many of you are already arguing and stating all the great things which have occurred, yet I assure you karma is not measured by what you have but by who you are.

The inherent principles of this country were built upon values, character, and integrity. We have allowed ourselves to lower our standards and allowed this division to make us ill. We have a severe virus of not understanding we catch everything from one another — for it is consciousness that leads the energy of this society. We have created a mass division within our culture.

SO what is the answer?  

If you are a true leader — step up, not down. We don’t need any more qualified and dynamic leaders of the city, state, church, institution, or any other self-acclaimed leaders posting everywhere on social networks how discouraged they are or dismayed. Step up — not down.

Do not feed the division. Division is the obvious success of breaking news, it’s the success of weakening the human spirit, it is designed to make us followers instead of true leaders and people who use our own minds.

Lead with inspiration and excitement. As we are entering into the Age of Aquarius, take time to observe your language and the very words which leave your mouth or enter your hearts. Eliminate and heal the divide. Include and allow the space of realizing the power of the U.S. It’s us. It’s US.

We have so much to do in our country focused on the basic rights of life. Children are hungry and dying, suicide, homelessness, and basic survival instability abounds. We have been so mesmerized these past few years on a tele-vision that we have lost our way with our own vision.

In everyday life, my stand is not with a particular party. It is a beloved community that includes all people and all sentient beings. It is not to separate but to bridge differences, so true difference makers may be realized.

If you are in another country, we need your faith, not your mockery. If you benefit from our country in any way, eliminate the mediocrity that you feed when you speak of us. I have always found it interesting when people live here for six months and talk about our beauty until the darkness comes and then they are dismissive.

Einstein said, “Great minds always face violent opposition from mediocre minds.” Well, there you have it as we have witnessed these past days.

It’s time to step up — not down. We can only start where we are in the decisions we make and live with right now. Heal the divide within yourself, and over time the divide will heal within each of us. We are not broken and our world is not broken.

Until we mend this deep misunderstanding within our psyche, we will always allow the lesser to guide us.

To the Difference Makers with gratitude …
