What do you do when life hits hard, and everything seems to be going against you? I'd really like to hear how other people handle those seasons. The last two weeks have been some of the toughest I've had in a while. This weekend, my mind has been stuck in overdrive with stress and overthinking. It's been hard to focus, hard to work, and hard to feel free. Right now, it honestly feels like I've been on a two-week losing streak without a single win. I'm not looking for sympathy—I'm looking for perspective. What helps you get through the tough times? Is it getting outside, staying busy, talking to someone, faith, exercise, or something else? I'd genuinely appreciate hearing what has helped you.

In the last few weeks and months, I have been feeling really disconnected from the people in my life (especially when it comes to friendships). In some friendships, I realised that I might be putting in more effort than they are. I have decided to pull back and allow them to reach out, but I also know that they might not ever reach out. This is quite sad because I have had a few occasions where friendships have come to an end without any real reason. Situations like this can trigger a sense of abandonment and make me feel like I am doing something wrong (which is something that I know I need to work through) Recently I have had a disagreement with another friend who I have been friends with for 10 years. Although the disagreement was not big, it made me feel like she no longer understands me and I feel like I can't be myself around her. I notice myself constantly filtering thoughts so that she doesn't get triggered or upset. I also notice that I am the friend that she offloads to. It seems like her other friendships are filled with fun, excitement, planning holidays and making memories, whereas, with me it seems like we always talk about what is going wrong in her life. Although I believe part of a friendship should be about helping each other through hard times, I would love to also be apart of the happy/fun moments too. Recently I have been doing a lot of nervous system work to find balance through somatic practices. I am learning so much and I feel like I am becoming a new person. I know this would be a huge reason why I feel so disconnected from my current friendships. I am currently 26 and thought that I would have my core group of friends now. Although I have family that I am close to and I am very grateful for them I feel like I have not met my tribe. I know that everyone says that your Saturn Return starts at 27, It is an age that I have been warned about so many times and I would really like to go through this phase of life with as much ease as possible.

Is using AI spiritual? Is it giving my power away? What does AI do to my vibration? And my connection to the divine? In today’s email I want to share with you a balanced perspective and place I’ve come to within myself and how I show up in the world Saying AI is bad or “is not spiritual” is like saying the internet is bad.. Or not spiritual Yet there are spiritual messages, texts, and videos sharing positive messages all around the world that would NOT exist if it weren’t for the internet You wouldn’t know who I was if it wasn’t for a video you’ve seen of mine from the internet So personally I think that the way we relate to AI depends on the consciousness we use it with In a recent 21 day challenge I did, I integrated an AI worksheet tool that people could use for becoming aware of their core patterns underneath the surface It is an AI tool that people used that would reflect back language patterns in their stories about love, friends, purpose etc And it reveled so much information about the subconscious side of people that people were blown away by it People in the beginning had resistance to using the tool however once people in the community started posting their breakthroughs people caught on and would experience it too I use some AI in my coaching process in the Shift Academy to help people with pattern recognition and belief work I do NOT use it for nervous system regulation and healing I also had reservations when I first integrated something called Aaron AI into my coaching programs too.. It's basically an AI version of me programed with every youtube video I have ever made AND every coaching call I have ever done AND every live event I have ever done Once again it doesn’t replace me… as I still do a ton of live coaching (its my passion!) BUT it does allow my work to help more people in a personal way

right now so much is shifting online and with AI taking over the online space people are doing a lot of inner reflection right now You may feel uncertain about what the future holds due to things changing very quickly People are wondering if they will have their job in the next few years… What used to work may not be working like it used to… I believe that over the next few years many people will being going through a spiritual awakening When things feel uncertain in the world, it creates tension and that leads to awakening for many people If you are seeing this that means YOU have been through an awakening and know what it’s like For the first time in over a year my best friend Victor Oddo and I are running a FREE 2 week beta program to help you create or grow your conscious business I am calling all healers, coaches and practitioners OR aspiring to be one who want to make an impact in the world and create a life of freedom and impact Live coaching workshops, meditations and a step by step process you can apply of what is working right now It starts June 22nd! If you want to be a part of it apply here https://www.ftpurpose.com/optin-aaron Imagine millions of people going through an awakening… getting tired of AI slop online… Tired of the same language patterns… its not THIS, its THAT.. not this. Not that. This. etc lol People will crave spiritual connection and authenticity This is why NOW is a great time to own your spiritual gifts, voice and energy to make an impact and put yourself out there in a powerful way Anyways I just got done running an EPIC event here in Sedona with Victor That’s what inspired us to run this again! Hope you have a great day! Much love, Aaron

1. Wake up earlier than your excuses The quiet morning hours can change your entire mindset, focus, and discipline. 2. Exercise even when you don’t feel like it Your body and mind become stronger every time you choose discipline over comfort. 3. Stop consuming negative content daily What you watch, read, and listen to silently shapes your mental state and emotional energy. 4. Read more than you scroll A few pages daily can transform the way you think, communicate, and understand life. 5. Protect your peace from toxic people Some people drain your energy faster than hard work ever will. 6. Learn to sit alone without distraction Silence reveals who you are beneath all the noise, validation, and stimulation. 7. Keep promises you make to yourself Self-trust is built every time you follow through on your own commitments. 8. Stop waiting for motivation Motivation comes and goes. Discipline changes lives permanently. 9. Eat food that gives energy instead of stealing it Your body affects your mood, focus, confidence, sleep, and emotional stability more than you realize. 10. Spend less time proving yourself to others Most people are too focused on themselves to think about you as much as you fear. 11. Replace complaining with action Small actions solve more problems than endless overthinking ever will. 12. Learn one valuable skill consistently Six months of focused improvement can completely change your opportunities and confidence. 13. Set boundaries without guilt Protecting your mental health is maturity, not selfishness. 14. Stop chasing people who do not choose you Your energy deserves reciprocity, not constant emotional exhaustion. 15. Heal instead of pretending nothing hurts Unhealed pain quietly controls decisions, relationships, reactions, and self-worth. 16. Practice gratitude daily A grateful mind suffers less because it learns to notice what is still beautiful in life. 17. Sleep properly and protect your mind Rest is not laziness. Exhaustion destroys clarity, patience, and emotional balance.
