What's up,
Everybody?
Welcome back to another episode of the Free To Be Me podcast with your host,
Dana,
But I also go by my spiritual name,
Iswa.
And so that's what everybody calls me.
And so you can call me Iswa too.
So if you're new here,
Don't forget to go ahead and follow me.
And let's get right into it.
Today's topic is going to be about you will not go unrewarded.
OK,
And this is something that I picked up when I was doing my Queen Esther live not too long ago.
And I picked this message up and I've been sitting with it ever since.
And I just it kept coming to me.
And I'm like,
OK,
I need to do something with this.
So I decided to just go ahead and put it on here so you guys can listen to it as many times as you need to.
Because I just like you,
Sometimes we need those reminders.
Right.
We need to hear it more than once.
So it integrates.
Right.
So that's why I'm here.
So it's you will not go unrewarded.
The reward wasn't missing.
Your alignment was.
I don't know if I need to say that again for the people in the back.
The reward wasn't missing.
Your alignment was.
So I want to say this again.
You won't go unrewarded.
I know it feels like it,
But you won't.
And I've been there many times.
You won't be unrewarded for your tears,
For your obedience,
For those nights that you chose integrity when no one was watching,
Not for the seeds that you planted that look like bare dirt right now,
Like nothing is there bare.
Y'all know what I'm talking about.
I know y'all feel me.
I know some of you feel like you've been pouring and pouring and pouring and nothing is happening.
Giving and giving and giving and nothing is happening.
But what if something is happening?
Just not where you're looking.
Now,
I don't know if you know right now,
But if you're listening to this in the month of March or at the end of February,
If you're listening to this the following year,
We're in Pisces season right now.
And Pisces is represents the ocean,
Right?
The womb,
The unseen intuition,
The in-between.
Right.
And one thing about the ocean is the ocean does not rush.
And I would say that for the people in the back.
The ocean does not rush.
The womb doesn't scream while it builds life.
It surrenders to it.
The womb doesn't scream while it builds life,
It surrenders to it because it knows what its job is.
It knows what its purpose is.
Right,
The unseen,
It doesn't need an applause to be active.
And I know some of us,
We're not really aware of this as much,
Or maybe we don't really pay too much attention to it.
But we receive help every day,
Even when we don't notice it.
Your spirit tribe doesn't stop helping you based on your gratitude,
Your attitude or what you give back.
Because the unseen knows that you'll come around and it operates through one of the highest vibrations,
Which is love.
And I want you to really think about that,
Because imagine if your spirit tribe was like,
OK,
Listen,
I've been helping this person and they haven't been showing no gratitude.
They have been missing the signs.
And even when they get the signs and things work out for them,
Even the smallest thing,
It doesn't matter how big or small it is.
But they're not even in gratitude.
They don't even see it.
They don't even notice it because it's not exactly what they want.
And I'm not telling you this like I'm squeaky clean because this was me,
This was my life,
All the signs and different things coming up.
And for a time period in my life at that time,
I didn't notice it as much because it wasn't exactly what I wanted.
And then when I got what I wanted,
It wasn't enough.
Woo,
I don't know who that is for,
But I know it's not just me,
Right?
I know it's not just me,
At least I don't think it's just me.
But your spirit tribe,
It knows that even even if you don't get it right now,
That you're going to come around at some point.
And that's why it always operates through love.
That's why it just continues to do what it is.
That you guys agreed upon before you even got here.
Now,
I want you to know that even though we don't see what's happening,
A lot is always happening beneath the surface.
I talked about this last year in my life that I felt like things were happening underneath the surface.
And when you think about wintertime and you think about like you're looking outside and you're like,
OK,
Everything seems dead out there.
You don't even feel like going outside,
Not just because of the cold,
But it doesn't really feel motivating or inspiring to go outside when you see the trees with no leaves,
You don't really hear the birds as much.
Everything is shifted.
Right?
I feel that same energy even more now.
In fact,
I told my husband last night that I felt like the ground was shaking beneath me energetically.
And whether you call it the spirit realm,
Divine intelligence or the quantum field,
God,
Ancestors,
Angels,
Guys,
Star families,
Whatever the language resonates with you,
It's all the same.
This is the season where the unseen feels closer.
This is the time where people report having more dreams and they're starting to remember them and even starting to interpret,
Even if they couldn't before,
Because all the synchronicities are aligning and the signs are all there.
More repeating numbers,
More memories of loved ones who've passed.
Right.
That communication starts coming in.
So even psychology supports this way.
They say,
Well,
We slow down and we move in where the subconscious becomes louder.
And this is why I believe that meditation and rest are so important.
Studies also show that when it comes to intuition,
Our brains,
They process millions of bits of information below conscious awareness every second.
I want y'all to think about that.
I must say it again,
Studies on intuition,
They show that our brains process millions,
Millions of bits of information below conscious awareness every second.
So just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not active.
I want you to think about that.
Who knew?
The unseen realm is always moving,
But in seasons like this.
We feel it a lot more,
Especially because the Pisces season is here and that's what that represents.
So here's my question to you.
Are you communicating clearly?
And I'm not just talking about the I just want money,
But what do you actually want?
See,
I remember being in a season where all I asked for was money,
I was like money,
Money,
Money,
Money,
Money,
Money.
That's where I was.
I remember being in a season where I was asking for money,
Money,
Money,
Money,
Money,
Money,
Money,
Money,
And I'm probably going to have to play that song live on my life on one day,
I'm going to have to play that song.
But then I was hit with an even deeper question.
What do you want the money for?
And that changed everything.
I didn't really want money.
I know you think like,
Wait,
Hold on,
Well,
I don't want money.
But let me explain for a minute.
I wanted freedom.
I wanted security.
I wanted to dress beautifully without guilt.
I wanted to surprise my husband with random gifts.
I wanted to take care of my children without calculating every dollar.
I wanted to sit at a table and say,
Hey,
Y'all,
I'm paying tonight.
It's on me,
Right?
Not just for my family,
But I mean,
Like the whole restaurant.
And as a matter of fact,
You guys actually did get to do that before.
But I really want to ease.
And here's what humbled me.
There were times I received money and when it came,
I didn't even use it the way I said I would.
Y'all ever feel that way?
That ever happened to y'all where y'all asked for something,
For something else.
And then once that comes in,
You don't even use it for the very thing you said it was for.
Some of it went to eating out,
Some random purchases,
Some unexpected bills,
Even sometimes it went to car trouble,
And that happened quite often during that time in my life,
Forgotten expenses,
And I would get so frustrated by it.
But I had to realize this.
The reward wasn't missing.
My alignment was.
Oh,
Y'all,
Listen,
Listen,
Listen,
We've been talking about alignment.
Okay.
Let me just say I'm going to say that again for people in the back.
Okay.
I'm going to say it again.
The reward wasn't missing.
The alignment was.
Sometimes we delay our own rewards because we haven't become the version of ourselves who can hold them.
Oh,
My God,
Guys.
I feel like screaming,
But my voice.
Guys,
I'm still sharing my voice is still,
You know,
From that last live.
And sometimes sometimes we even try to control the reward so tightly that we block the flow of it.
Come on.
We try to hold so tightly onto something.
We block the flow of it.
Y'all,
Listen,
I have been that person.
I will not tell y'all I have been there.
And I know that some of you have been there,
Too.
So listen closely.
When we try to control the wind,
The where,
The how and the who,
It creates tension in the nervous system.
And the nervous system has been a topic that's been coming up more and more recently than it was years ago.
And manifestation,
It doesn't grow in a tense body.
Hmm.
I remember one day on my live,
I talked about release equals relief,
Relief.
It regulates the nervous system and a regulated nervous system creates safety and safety allows expansion.
So we don't feel expansive.
I went to the actions of whether you feel safe.
Have you released?
Do you feel a sense of relief right now?
You don't have to force what is meant for you.
And that's the thing I think a lot of us need to understand.
We don't have to force anything.
Whatever is meant to us is going to come.
You don't have to chase every blessing down.
Sometimes your job is to simply just exist.
It's to simply just be to get clear,
Communicate it,
Do your part and release the grip,
Release the grip.
Maybe your reward is going to show up as a stranger helping you on the side of the road.
It could be someone randomly paying for your meal or an unexpected donation,
A connection that changes your life,
Maybe even an idea that unlocks income,
A piece you didn't have before.
Not all rewards look like cash.
Some look like capacity.
Oh,
Wait,
And with Pisces as a water sign,
Meaning that water,
It cleanses and water softens and water carries this season is allowing the unseen to rearrange things.
It's allowing what is owed to you energetically to come back around and allow support.
Right.
So allow we must release for relief.
That means you must trust.
Now we're getting somewhere.
But first,
I want you to ask yourself,
Honestly,
Do I truly know what I want or am I just asking for symbols of it?
And I want to remind you that you will not go unrewarded,
Not by life,
Not by God or whatever name resonates with you,
Not by the unseen forces working on your behalf,
Not by your own effort.
Now,
Every neuroscience shows us that now even neuroscience shows us that consistent effort compounds.
So the brain literally rewires the repetition.
So that means that what you practice,
You become what you consistently build eventually grows.
And there is always movement beneath the surface before visible change.
The seed underground,
It breaks open underground right before it even reaches the sunlight.
That's where everything happens.
That's where some of the magic really happens is under the ground.
So I don't want you to be afraid of the underground moments.
Oh,
Hold on,
Wait a minute.
I just thought about the underground railroad,
Y'all.
Maybe,
Look,
I'm going to have to hold on.
Wait,
I did a whole live about trains.
I might have to bring that back.
I want you to realize that you need to stand in who you are.
Trust that something is shifting.
Let it marinate in your mind.
And then release the need to micromanage your miracles.
Y'all,
Y'all,
I know there's a reason why I need to do this.
I know it was.
I want you to think about this.
The ocean does not need to rush the tide.
The womb does not need an announcement for the miracle before it forms.
You are not unseen and your effort is not wasted.
You will not go unrewarded.
I love you all so much.
And if no one has ever told you this before,
I'm proud of you.
I'm proud of what you survived.
I'm proud of what you built quietly.
I'm proud of what you've given,
Even when you felt empty.
Because now we're not doing that no more.
Right.
But I'm proud that you got to see that you're not supposed to be given from an empty cup.
OK,
We don't get on that another day,
But I'm proud of what you share with others when you barely have words for yourself.
Because all of that has led you to this moment.
This moment right here,
Clarity.
And I'm proud to know you,
Even if we've never met in this in this timeline yet,
Because if you're reading this,
Our souls have crossed paths somewhere before.
So I'm going to say this again.
You are seen,
You are heard,
And your efforts are not in vain.
You will not go unrewarded.
Remember,
You guys,
That you are magic.
So today,
Be magical,
Spread love and share your freaking story because you deserve to be heard and someone out there is waiting to hear from you.
And they don't need a perfect version of you.
They just need the real you.
They just need the authentic you,
Just as you are,
As you're continuing to grow and evolve.
Right now,
If this resonates with you,
I want you to join me live on my upcoming live on Inside Timer,
You guys.
I'm going to leave a link hopefully below if I can,
If I can.
But if not,
Join me,
Join me,
Join me,
Join me.
And I can't wait,
You guys.
I love you so much.
I'm going to see you in the next one.
