Straight from THE Source Vol 18 – The Angels say it’s all inside of you
Over the past week, I have received several channels, and two themes have consistently emerged from the angels and other beings of the angelic realm.
The first is to let go of our attachment to material things. Which for me is tough, I like nice things, I like quality!
The second is to stop playing small. When we focus on things that technically do not matter or take our eye off the ball, we end up limiting ourselves.
My own spirit guides have been especially persistent, encouraging me to step more fully into this work—to channel their messages, introduce people to the angelic realms, and help bring humanity back to the heart, where we reconnect with God, the Divine, and who the angels often call Source.
I am fully committed to this calling, (check out our Angels 101 tab for an intro to everything angels and the orders of the angels) and yet, like so many of us, I still have moments of doubt. It is easy to stay in what feels comfortable and familiar.
For me, that comfortable place has always been coaching executives, mentoring leaders—especially women—and helping people discover their soul's purpose. I love that work, and I know it has made a difference.
But my purpose is even broader than that.
I am here to help heal people—mind, body, and soul—to help them reconnect with their heart center and ultimately find their way to God, Source, our Creator.
The message from my guides has been unmistakable:
Think bigger. Trust more. Stop playing small.
That message is not solely intended for me, but for you as well. Over the past several weeks, I have spent a great deal of time in prayer and meditation with Jesus and Mary Magdalene. With the Feast of Saint Mary Magdalene falling on July 22, I have felt her presence more strongly than ever.
One of the teachings that has resonated most deeply with me comes from the Gospel of Mary, an early Christian text that is not part of the biblical canon that was found in Egypt in the late 1800’s, also referred to as the Berlin Gnostic Codex, for it was found by German scholar Dr. Carl Reinhard. The Gospel of Mary is known to be the writings from Mary Magdalene, one of Christ’s apostles and one of his closest companions. One of its central themes is that the Divine is not something we must endlessly search for outside ourselves. Rather, the presence of God is already within us. (He did create us after all.)
Love is within you.
The Kingdom is within you.
The Divine spark is already part of who you are.
When we truly understand that we are created by God and deeply loved by Him, we begin to realize that we already possess everything we need to live the life we were created to live.
So why do we still play small?
Why do we doubt ourselves?
Why do we hesitate to fully embrace who God created us to be? Why do we worry? There are countless bible passages that say not to worry, have no anxiety for tomorrow.
I believe much of it comes from living in lower states of vibrational energy—fear, doubt, insecurity, resentment, or anything else that keeps us disconnected from love. Sometimes those lower energies show up as unhealthy relationships, limiting beliefs, unfulfilling work, or simply a fear of stepping into something greater.
Finding fulfillment is a journey unique to each of us, but I believe it begins by remembering that we are never walking that journey alone.
Whether your faith is rooted in Christianity or another spiritual tradition, know that God has surrounded you with help. You have angels. You have your guardian angel. You have spirit guides. You have the wisdom of saints and ascended masters. You have spirits in heaven cheering you on every step of the way.
Most importantly, you have God. And you have him INSIDE of you!
You have an entire spiritual team whose purpose is to guide you, encourage you, and help you become the person you were created to be. They want you to prosper. They want you to fulfill your purpose. They want you to experience the extraordinary depth of God's unconditional love—a love so complete that words can scarcely describe it.
The question is not whether that support exists. The question is whether we are willing to ask for it and listen. Perhaps this is the invitation the angels are extending to all of us this week: Let go of what keeps you small. Dream bigger!
So how does materialism fit into this? In one of my early channels I was told by one of my archangels to let go of the material desires. That was a tough pill to swallow having been a financial executive for my entire adult life. I was surrounded by money, wealth, helping people save and attain wealth, and helping people run wealth businesses. To say I was around and had access to very nice things is an understatement.
“There is too much anger, resentment, materialistic notions, too much trying to keep up and do too much…. When people need to realize love is inside them. The love of their beloved Creator. They don’t need to chase the material for fulfillment. We’re not saying not to enjoy life and your money. Enjoy your life and what you love to do. But don’t chase materialistic things for the sake of keeping up with people.”
They’re not saying you can’t spend and bring joy to yourself. But it shouldn’t be what you are striving for. In the end, it can feel empty and not fulfilling. This is what lowers people’s energetic vibration. Remember, we are energetic beings, built on an energy grid of pure love from a universe that is built on energy powered by unconditional love. A low vibration is when we start to doubt, when we start to lose touch with our spirit, and eventually go to the ego. The angels often say there is a balance to everything, a give and take. I think their biggest worry is that we continue to lose ourselves and become unhappy, when they know they are around to help us. Help us with fulfillment, help us with our soul path and purpose, and have the support system we all need.
All About Money being Energy
I often talk about energy as the angels reference it in my channels often. The universe is an energetic grid powered by God’s unconditional love. On earth humans decided that money would be our currency. That currency helps us provide for ourselves and our loved ones; it is also a form of energy. Money is not to be despised, not to be loathed or jealous of, but we are to energetically have a relationship with money. In the news on any given day you have people striving to attain wealth, trying to get by, and then you have people attacking others because they have too much wealth. I believe that is not what God wants, nor what the angels preach. You are to have your heart’s desire, to be creative and create your own heaven on earth. For most people, that is having access to money to provide for themselves and live a comfortable life. (And that is okay!)
So why not show love to both sides? If you have money that means you have a strong energetic presence to it that is open and welcoming to abundance. Can people give back to people who don’t, of course. That doesn’t mean giving away all your money, it means thinking about what you can afford to simply help someone in need. If you don’t have money, don’t be upset at people who do. Love each other. When you are consciously thinking about the greater good, the best or highest intention, service to others; money will play a positive part. If you are only thinking about money to acquire and attain material things, the fulfillment in your soul won’t last long. This is a long-winded way of saying what the angels tell me often, money isn’t to be despised, and it is not to be coveted. It is the way we chose to enact in our world. Live in service and love and treat money as a positive energy. One where you are attracting it and helping and doing good with it. Can you still have nice things? Sure, but don’t let it control you and give you a sense of false fulfillment. What your soul needs is love and to know that love is all around you, within reach, and available to you at all times.
So how do we stop playing small? How do we step into our greatest potential?
We stop worrying about the little things. The material things. Things that don't bring us lasting joy. Those things are only temporary.
Instead, we give back. We serve others. We use our gifts in service to humanity. That is where true fulfillment is found. (See the Archangel Metatron post about service to others and how it changes you, link here. https://www.ahistoryofangels.com/straight-from-the-source/straight-from-the-source-week-twelve )
We remember that we are never walking this journey alone. We have an incredible team cheering us on every step of the way—our angels, our spirit guides, and our Creator. They are waiting to be invited into our lives, especially during the moments that matter most. Especially when you are doubting yourself and do not know how to move forward.
I often reflect on the Gospel of Mary Magdalene and what Christ taught her—that all the love we will ever need already exists within us. We spend so much of our lives searching outside ourselves for happiness, validation, and purpose, when the greatest gift has been with us all along.
You need nothing more than unconditional love. And that love already lives within you, because it comes from God.
When we remember who we are and whose we are, we stop playing small. We begin to live with courage, purpose, and faith, trusting that the path before us has already been prepared. When you realize what is inside of you, you know that you can accomplish anything. When you are doubting, know that you have a team waiting by your side to be called in. Call on your angels, your guardian angel, and your spirit guides for guidance on how to move forward, how to release what is holding you back, and to find that true fulfillment.
Everything else builds from there.
As I often say, these are the messages I have been blessed to receive and share...

“For I am certain that nothing can separate us from his love: neither death nor life, neither angels nor other heavenly rulers or powers, neither the present nor the future, neither the world above nor the world below - there is nothing in all creation that will ever be able to separate us from the love of God which is ours through Christ Jesus our Lord. “ Romans 8:38-39
