I feared success and myself. If we haven't reached a level of success in our lives in whatever way we might measure that to be, it can only be because we have been afraid of becoming ourselves. That statement could be true for you even if you've achieved financial success in your life. I know because I've coached multi-millionaires.

We all are born with equal talent, ability, and potential. At least, that is what our parents or guardians tell us. And it is what most of us learn through our churches, religious or spiritual studies, and in school, college, and even when we later seek coaches or mentors to help us reach that place in our lives where we believe we are happy and prosperous. 

I will not make this article an autobiography, but I will make it relevant to where many of us might find ourselves now in a world that we see is ever-changing, and we are questioning what might be happening to us and the world. 

When I began vocal coaching in 1988, it seemed like the most unlikely thing I could do because I had thought I had so many vocal problems that I had experienced since age 12. I was terrified because I didn't know music or how to play the piano. But my coach insisted that I begin because he could see more in me than I could, so I agreed.

When he told me to learn piano, I lied to him and said I would, but I knew I wouldn't because my mother had attempted to get me to do that when I was young, but I couldn't stay with it. She tried to teach me, gave up in exasperation, and then sent me to one of her friends, thinking I would learn better from someone else. 

That didn't work either, and then twenty years later, I thought maybe I would try again, and I hired teachers and even took an online course, and none of them worked. I then gave up the fight and hired someone to play the piano tracks I needed to begin my coaching practice. 

What happened next is after a shaky start, I began receiving more clients, and they were receiving results that even startled me. Several people came for sessions, many of whom later became major stars. I was reminded of that the other day when I recently saw Brandy make a surprise appearance at the BET Awards. She was twelve when she first came to me and had a persistent condition where she would lose her voice after almost every performance. I changed that, and by 15, she signed her first record deal. 

The same thing happened with Nona Gaye, the daughter of Marvin Gaye, and she signed her first deal at the same age. At about the same time, a timid person came to me named Natalie McIntyre. She was terrified of singing and did everything to avoid our sessions, but I could see there was something she possessed. 

I didn't hear from her for years. But then, many years later, my clients started telling me of this new singer they loved, and she was going to appear on the Rosie O'Donnell show that day, so I decided to watch to see what was all the fuss. I sat on my sofa, turned on the television, and then fell off the couch when I saw it was Natalie, who was now Macy Gray. 

She contacted me later and told me of her adventure. I asked her how she kept her voice in shape. And what she had done in the years since I'd seen her. She said all she did was use a cassette tape she had of a previous lesson; that was all she needed. But now, she needed me to coach her backup singers as they all lost their voices while touring. I restored them all. 

I didn't know how I was doing this. I later met an ear, nose, and throat doctor, Dr. David Alessi. He graciously had me attend a seminar on vocal health where he told us about all the celebrities he treated and how many of them would return. They refused to change their singing habits because they feared losing fans if they changed their sound and sang more correctly. 

He then saw that I knew more than I even thought I did, so he began to refer his patients to me for rehabilitation. I found myself performing some mind-boggling things. I had a client who suffered from spasmodic dysphonia, which I had never heard of, but I went to the library to find out what it was as we didn't have the Internet then where I could research.

I figured it out and got this man to speak again, and his wife called to thank me and said she had not heard his voice in 6 months. I never questioned how all this was happening as I kept doing my work. 

Years later, after hundreds of clients, I felt there was more I was supposed to do because I could always feel and notice their inability to accept their talents and gifts. Some of them actively fought against it because they didn't believe they could be the next superstar or make a difference in the world, but they did. What invariably happened was they changed their mindset after they witnessed their progress through my coaching.

In 2016 I knew I was meant to do life coaching, but as I was with vocal coaching, I was fearful I wouldn't know what I was doing. And like the vocal coaching, I was wrong again. I began to see results in the clients I was working with, and most of them came to me initially through vocal coaching. Some began to tell me how much they changed because of that coaching. But I didn't know how that was happening. 

All of this brings me to today. I began practicing automatic writing in 1988 because I was terrified when I started coaching and needed the help of a spiritual nature. I had begun attending lectures on A Course in Miracles offered by Marianne Williamson. My boss was a friend of hers at the time and advised me to participate as he thought I would find value. 

I soon became friends with her assistant, and we would all hang out and talk about the direction of the lectures. I began to sing at some of them. Evan Klein was her assistant, and we started to write songs together. I recorded several of them on my last album, "Angel in Disguise." Unfortunately, Evan passed away years earlier, but I knew I wanted to honor him and had to record those songs. One of them I recently featured online as I knew it was meant for the time we all are living now, and it is called "Help the World to Mend."

I always continued my practice of automatic writing, but I didn't tell many. I knew it had helped me accomplish so much, move through many difficult times in my life, and recover from tragedies. Still, I didn't think anyone would believe me, and I feared the judgment I might receive as others would think I was nuts even though I had all the evidence of what I had accomplished. 

In 2007 someone found some of my writings and said they helped them and asked if I would send them, to which I agreed. Later someone created a website for me to publish the daily messages called "Any Advice For Today." I then wrote a book using some of the writings in 2018 called "Overcoming Fear - a Guide to Freedom." 

In 2020 I began receiving messages that seemed different and gave me the information I found difficult to process and accept. I was told we would be moving through what was called restructuring of our world. We would each experience that in our lives, and it might be uncomfortable and frightening to many as it could also be chaotic. 

Then in 2021, I was told I was given information and guidance to help us all move through this period more easily. Most of us fear change, but a change is necessary if we hope to evolve individually and our world collectively. I was told the name was "Your Life Operating Instructions." 

I then proceeded to turn into my clients. I doubted it all. I could not be someone given something of this import. I had to find out. The messages kept coming. I began witnessing some of that information I had received manifesting in the world. I was told we might have a war; we would see the most disruption in the United States, and we would experience division and fighting within many groups and possibly within our friends and families, all of which was happening. 

I decided to see if any of this was valid, so in December 2021, I put together a program using some of the messages from 2012 and called it "4 Weeks to Your Best Life." I opened the program with very low tuition as I thought it would allow people to try it out, and I even guaranteed they would receive results which would be they would feel better about themselves and the world. 

It worked. I was stunned at the end of the session as every person had that result. But I was also unprepared. I was told that for anyone of us to establish a fundamental change in our lives, it would take longer than a month, and we would have our best result if we stayed with this philosophy for a year. That was also the information I received about our world and that this work would allow us to become patient with ourselves and the world, for we all resist change, especially our world leaders. 

The thing that I feared was myself, as many of us do. We will have an intuitive feeling of what we think we are meant to do in our lives but then begin to talk ourselves out of that belief because we find it hard to believe it could be us. I had witnessed this behavior for over thirty years in my clients, but it was challenging to see it in myself, just like my clients. 

But now, I can no longer do that, and I don't want others to do that for them. We never heal our lives or the world. Each of us is born with a gift we are meant to bring to the world, which causes evolution. But we might judge that gift as I did, and then we wreck our lives and the world. 

The purpose of this restructuring and the program I was given was to allow more of us to become empowered, own our worth and value and change the misalignment of the world that would have so many of us believe we were insignificant. We move through changes in our civilizations and societies continually, but we are alive now during one that is major. 

If more of us do what is within us to do and move beyond our fear and doubt of doing so, we will no longer give way to dictators, oppressors, and those holding on to great wealth and power while many others in our world die of starvation and poverty. 

What I feaerd were my precognitive intuitive abilities. It allowed me to do and create everything in my life. I will no longer fear myself and the success awaiting me through the work I was given, and I will aid as many willing to take the same steps to stop fearing themselves and manifest the success they are meant to have. Imagine a world where every person stopped judging themselves or any aspect of who they are and began to give their discoveries back to others. No one would lack anything, and we would have a world we all want to see. 

That is the goal of my work and program, and I'm going to believe it now as I hope you begin to believe in yourself, for none of us were born without valuable worth and purpose. We only need a path to uncover it, and I was given one.
