Can we just be real for a second?
The world feels like a hot mess right now (let’s be honest, it’s a dumpster fire). It’s chaotic. It’s divided. And just when you think it can’t possibly get any crazier, you turn on the news and it does. If you’ve been feeling a deep sense of powerlessness in the face of it all, I want you to take a deep breath and hear me when I say this: you are not alone, you are not broken, and you are not going crazy.
And let’s be clear: that feeling of powerlessness isn’t there by accident.
The truth is, there’s a deeply ingrained system at play here. A kind of standardized blueprint that our current society is run by, and it was never set up for all of us to thrive in. It thrives on keeping you small, busy, overwhelmed, and too tired to think for yourself or to do anything about it.
For generations, we’ve all been taught to trust this system as the best and only way. The result? We’ve learned to distrust our own inner knowing and abandon our own authentic power. And that’s exactly what the system needs from us to survive.
But here is the one secret that system never wanted you to remember: its only true power is the power we have been giving it.
And this is the most hopeful truth of all.
The secret is not in taking the power back, but in simply remembering it was never theirs to begin with. It is, and has always been, yours.
And remembering that truth is how you reclaim it.
This Isn’t a Collapse. It’s the System’s Last Ditch Attempt.
And I get it. The loving, no-BS skeptic in your head is probably screaming, “Okay, Kaylee, but have you looked around? It’s getting WORSE. What power do I have in the face of that?”
And to that, I say: What you are seeing is not a sign of your weakness. It is the first, undeniable proof of our collective power.
Because what I see in this chaos isn’t just destruction. I see people coming together. I see us recognizing that the old, broken system was never designed for us to thrive. And I see us, finally, choosing to no longer stand for it.
The reason it feels like things are getting crazier is twofold. First, the old powers are in their last-ditch attempt to hang on, throwing everything they have at us because they know we are waking up.
And second, awareness is a funny thing. Think about it: the moment you decide you want a new car, you suddenly start seeing it everywhere. It’s not because there are magically more of those cars on the road; it’s because you gave your brain a new marching order that this car now matters to you. This phenomenon happens through a powerful filtering system in your brain (it’s called the RAS) that sifts through the billions of bits of information flying at you every second and only allows the tiny fraction you’ve told it is important to you into your conscious awareness. And in the same way, now that we’ve become aware of the systems that were holding us down, our brains are dutifully scanning for more evidence of that. The result? We are finally seeing the truth of that system everywhere.
It can feel like we are moving backward, but it is actually the first, necessary sign of moving forward. This is what the clearing of an old, broken system looks like. It is messy. It is loud. And it is the most hopeful sign of all. Because before any new, beautiful creation can take root, the old must be cleared away. Think of it this way: you can’t fill your glass with champagne if it is already filled with Kool-Aid.
Your Power Isn’t in Fighting the Fire. It’s in Creating Your Reality.
So where is your true power in all of this? It’s in understanding the powerful partnership between the timeless rules of the universe and the incredible technology of your own brain.
It starts with the spiritual physics: The universe operates on a few simple, unshakable laws that work whether you believe in them or not, just like gravity. The foundation is that your consciousness is a creative force (The Law of Mentalism). Also at play here is that your inner state—your thoughts, emotions, and deepest beliefs—is a powerful energetic frequency that you are constantly broadcasting outside of yourself to the universe like a sound wave (The Law of Vibration). And finally, the universe is a perfect mirror. It has to reflect back a reality that perfectly matches the frequency you send out (The Law of Correspondence).
So what’s the point of all this?
It means that when you’re looking at the dumpster fire of the world, you’re filtering it through the lens of your own consciousness. If you choose the lens of fear and powerlessness—which the old, dying system wants you to use—then the universe and your own brain will dutifully work together to create a reality that gives you even more reasons to be afraid and feel powerless.
However…
If you consciously choose to filter all of this chaos through a lens of hope, love, and compassion, the universe and your brain will fully support you in that, too. They will help you create, see, notice, and recognize more reasons to believe that a new, more beautiful world is being born right in the middle of the destruction.
How to Starve the Fire and Water Your Seeds
I know this is easier said than done. So let’s make this incredibly practical.
This is not about pretending the fire doesn’t exist. It is about where you choose to direct your creative life-force energy.
When you run toward the fire—even with your buckets of water to fight it—your attention is still on the fire. You are broadcasting a frequency of “fire,” and you are telling your brain and the universe, “This is what’s real; the world is falling apart. I have reason to be in fear and feel powerless.” And they will just keep giving you more reasons to feel powerless and afraid.
However, you have a choice.
The moment you make the conscious choice to see the chaos as positive evidence for a collective evolution and proof that the old system that wasn’t working is finally breaking down, everything changes.
By simply shifting your attention away from the flames of the fire and towards what you want to see in the world, you are simultaneously starving the fire of its oxygen, allowing it to burn itself out, and watering the seeds of the new world that you want to build in its place.
That single, conscious choice is the tool. It is you, in real-time, remembering the power that was always within you and choosing to become the loving gardener of your own inner world. It is the understanding that it doesn’t matter what you choose to believe in or focus on; the universe and your brain will rearrange themselves and conspire in every way to support whatever it is you choose.
This understanding is where your true power lies. And now, the choice is completely within your control.
A Message of Hope
The old systems are burning themselves down. It’s a clearing, making way for us to create a world we would actually love to live in.
So if you take anything away from this, let it be this:
Just like a Lighthouse, your power isn’t in fighting the storm, but in standing tall in your own authentic power.
While the world might be broken, we are not broken. And you are not broken. You are not powerless, and you are not alone.
And most importantly, you are way more powerful than you have been conditioned to believe.
Together, with our focused attention, we can change everything.
With love and a deep belief in the power within you,
Kaylee
