Ooh, today's episode is so important to me. And it's something that I have been talking about

wanting to share since I quit, which is 2021. And it's funny because I've beat myself up a little bit

in the past for not sharing earlier because I know that this is something

you guys really want to hear and that would benefit people to hear. But I just wasn't ready.

And we just trip ourselves up so much thinking that we're not doing something because we're

bad or lazy. And in reality, often we're not doing something because we have a really deep and beautiful inner wisdom telling us it's just not the right time yet.

You don't have the insights yet.

You don't have the perspective just yet.

Hold out a bit longer.

Wait until it feels right.

And not only does that apply to me filming this episode, but I want you guys to know that if you are someone who's currently having

a relationship with cannabis, that it may very well apply to your relationship with this plant

as well. I believe that you will be able to step away from this plant when you are ready to

and not a moment sooner. And you are not bad or wrong or shameful. If you're still using it,

if it's still something that is a coping tool that you feel like you really need to rely on right now,

there is a time for everything and there's an inner wisdom within us that we simply can't see

until we see it. And so I just want to open this episode by saying that A, if you're listening,

thank your higher self because there's a reason that you're here. There's some kind of message that you may be

ready to face and to hear and to work through. And B, just remember that your higher self

brought this to your attention, not a minute too late and a minute too soon. You're exactly on time.

So there is no use looking at time lost or I should

have done this sooner. Why didn't I see this sooner? There's a reason that you're here right now.
