Send us Fan Mail The scariest kind of “possession” is the one that feels true. A spirit in your room, a craving you can’t stop, a partner who seems to control your mood, a memory that still runs your life. We start by challenging the assumption underneath all of it: the idea that anything outside your mind can own you, enter you, or determine your inner state. Using A Course in Miracles language,…
Send us Fan Mail “If all is one, why would you need boundaries?” That question sounds holy until you test it against real life: your body gets tired, your time runs out, your nervous system flares, and someone’s “need” starts to feel like pressure. From Hawai‘i, we talk through the difference between love and access, and why A Course in Miracles doesn’t ask us to use metaphysical ideas to override…
Send us Fan Mail Concern is one of the most socially approved forms of anxiety, and that’s exactly why it can be so hard to see. We talk about the moment “I’m just worried about you” stops being love and starts becoming pressure, projection, and control. When concern turns into rumination, diagnosing, or mentally rehearsing what someone should do, it doesn’t deepen connection. It quietly wedges…
Send us Fan Mail Independence sounds noble until you notice what it quietly implies: separation, competition, and a world full of threats. Hope Johnson takes that assumption head-on, using Independence Day as a doorway into a deeper spiritual idea of interdependence rooted in nonduality and the “one mind” view. If you’ve ever felt like other people, your body, or your circumstances are the reason…
Send us Fan Mail The moment someone comes at you with blame, jealousy, or anger, your body wants to brace and your mind wants to build a case. We go straight into what happens when you do the opposite: stay open, drop the defense, and let compassion do the work. Laurie T. joins me to share what unfolded in her long-term marriage when her husband “lit out” at her and she simply held space,…
Send us Fan Mail Your body is not a problem to manage, and your mind is not here to run the show. We take on one of the most persistent spiritual myths: that if you just think “right” you can control habits, health, and outcomes. From an A Course in Miracles perspective, we explore why that control project quietly reinforces guilt and fear, and why the mind’s real purpose is healing that restores…
Send us Fan Mail What if the biggest source of stress isn’t the weather, your partner, or the latest text that hit your nervous system like a freight train, but the meaning your mind assigns to it? From the shores of Hawaii, I walk through a grounded A Course in Miracles approach to forgiveness that does not ask you to deny your perception. It asks you to stop making perception into the cause of…
Send us Fan Mail Trying to “accept everything” can sound holy, but it can also become a quiet form of self-attack. From Kehenna Beach Estates on Hawai‘i Island, I walk through a blunt, practical A Course in Miracles perspective: we are not asked to approve of war, sickness, aging, or death. The real invitation is self-acceptance, the kind that lets you admit “I hate this” without shame and without…
Send us Fan Mail Podcast Description What if the entire spiritual framework of guilt, payment, and sacrifice is based on a misunderstanding? In this ACIM Deep Dive, Hope Johnson explores one of the most radical teachings in A Course in Miracles : sacrifice is completely unknown to God. From there, the conversation unfolds into a profound examination of fear, guilt, mercy, self-victimization, and…
Send us Fan Mail Nothing real can be threatened. If you actually try to live that, it collides with everything the ego uses to scare us: job loss, rejection, politics, sickness, aging, and even death. From Hawaii, we sit with the central teaching of A Course in Miracles and ask a blunt question: what do we really want, relief from the world or the Peace of God right now? We talk through a recent…
