author of NEW breakthrough book entitled, "Fear is a Choice: Unraveling the Illusion of Our Separation from Love". Coming out this summer!

This podcast was birthed by the desire to explore, expand, share and hopefully better understand Truth in all its forms. Each week we strive to dive as deeply as possible into the core concepts, beliefs, ideas, consciousness and understandings we have about our experience being human in this time and space reality. We want to stimulate YOU to grow, evolve and transform through a deeper understanding and clarity about who you are and why you are here.I handle idea development, website development, content, episode editing and marketing.

Using a process that activates and stimulated the prefrontal cortex of the brain to create powerful change by shifting from a fear based experience to an opportunity based experience.

I help people turn on their brains in a new way that expands potential and creates sustainable positive change in every dimension of life! I work with people who have decided that life is too short to live an unhappy life and who are ready to expand their potential!

From my Center in Mission Valley I Facilitate all Tiers of the HIGHER BRAIN LIVING® process. This gentle touch technique stimulates energy, blood flow and metabolism to the pre-frontal cortex of the brain. Through the program that energy is applied to all areas of ones life to create lasting, powerful transformation.

I have been involved in Break Through development for over 25 years. I conduct one-on-one coaching sessions and group classes. I have a weekly meetup that focuses on the practical application of self awareness and development. http://www.meetup.com/GOT-JOY-The-Art-of-Breaking-Through/members/24944582/
