## Resource

In this solo episode, I open up about a one-star Google review left about me by someone who had never actually met me or been served by me at my new job, tracing it back to a disagreement on TikTok over bike lanes in my city. I then reflect on turning 40, describing it as one of the hardest days of my life financially, while also feeling the most mentally free, I've ever been. I get into my thoughts on soul frequencies, the idea that people closest to you will mirror you in unexpected ways, using my dad, myself, and my cat as an example, all three of us sharing issues with our left foot. I also share my theory on how negative people can physically drain and sicken positive, high-frequency individuals, and why I believe this is rarely talked about publicly. I wrap things up with my thoughts on time as a resource, wealth, consciousness, the movie Tomorrowland, and a mention of podcast listeners I suspect may include government officials and possibly Elon Musk.
