0:00.0	Welcome back to Moon Beaming.
0:02.3	I'm so excited for today's show, because it's a little spicy, a little spicy vegan meatball
0:09.7	of a show. There's a little kick. There's a little bit of extra pepper, you know?
0:15.9	Maybe some paprika, my fave. Today we get into the nuances, the issues, the good, the bad,
0:24.1	and the ugly of the one and only, law of attraction, and some ideas about manifestation.
0:34.4	And I've got a special guest here to do this with me. Today I have the one and only Chelsea
0:43.0	Yorandaza, who is the owner of a cold bath and body brand, which baby soap, co-host of the Elder

2:27.9	A lot of people in the new age or spiritual worlds, they would say yes, period. And Chelsea and I
2:40.1	had surprisingly, or not surprisingly, if you're a listener of this show, we had a lot to say about
2:45.8	this. So tune in for our takes. After this episode, you'll know more clearly how you stand. You might
2:54.9	have some ideas on how to be able to tell when you're being gaslit, when you are gaslighting
3:03.2	yourself, or being fed some BS under the guise of love and light. What this conversation sparked
