this is a hot coals moment
taking your dreams seriously when no one else does
Life is asking me to show up to my visions in a way it never has before. I have a feeling many of you are right here with me.
The best way I can describe how I feel is the way Pam feels right before she runs across the hot coals.
If you’re a fan of The Office like me, you know exactly the scene I’m talking about.
No one is paying attention to her. It’s the end of “Beach Day” and the office crew is gathered around the fire, completely oblivious to Pam in the background.
The coals are long forgotten—no one had seriously attempted them.
To most of them, the whole thing was a "typical Michael" joke. No one was really going to run across them just as they never take any of Michael’s antics seriously.
But none of this is a joke to Pam.
And no one sees Pam in the background about to GO FOR IT.
Pam, who is tired of sleeping on her dreams. Pam, who wants to be an artist but feels stuck in her boring receptionist job. Pam, who can't find the courage to tell Jim how she really feels. Pam, who isn't even asked to participate in the beach games that day because no one—not even Michael—takes her seriously.
Pam, who knows her whole life has come down to this one moment.
What is she really made of?
They’re not just hot coals.
They’re an external symbol of the point of no return she’s reached within herself.
Will she do the thing no one else is seriously considering doing?
The thing no one else is brave enough to do?
The thing no one is holding her accountable to?
The thing no one really believes SHE will do?
(They're not even watching her. To them, this is not serious.)
But to Pam, it's everything.
So she takes a deep breath, and…she does it. She runs across the hot coals.
She holds herself accountable. She shows up to the one thing she can do right now to show herself that she takes herself seriously, even when no one else does.
It's a small thing. But the act of showing up for herself in this seemingly small, seemingly insignificant way opens up everything else to her.
That single moment of choosing herself sets the rest of her life into motion.
"I did the coal walk!" She exclaims to the group. "Michael, you couldn’t even do that. Maybe I should be your boss."
Then everything pours out of her.
How much it hurt her feelings that no one came to her art show. How she feels about Jim. Everything on her heart that she's been stuffing down and keeping to herself for everyone’s comfort but her own.
That seemingly small moment creates so much movement in her life.
She applies to art school. She starts dating Jim.
No, her problems are not all solved and the pieces don’t magically fall into place: but her life begins to move forward.
All because she showed up for herself when no one was looking, when no one believed in her, when no one thought she could (or would) do it.
She disrupted her own patterns and got out of her own way.
I, too, have reached a point of no return.
And I think many of you have, too.
You know what it feels like to be invalidated and dismissed.
You know what it feels like to have your dreams diminished to the realm of fantasy.
You have craved validation and permission:
Please, someone tell me it's okay to TRY. Someone tell me if I take this risk, it will all work out.
Only to find no one’s even paying attention.
You already know: no one is going to take your dreams seriously for you.
In fact, as things intensify on Earth there will be—and already is—a cacophony of voices telling you that you must stop "wasting time" on your frivolous and selfish dreams so you can “be a good person.”
"Do something to help humanity."
But have you ever noticed that none of these people who are telling you what you must do to “be good” have actually walked across the hot coals of pursuing their dreams for themselves?
None of these people are seriously considering it. And so they're not taking you seriously.
The point is: you don’t need them to.
No one is going to make you run across the hot coals.
No one is going to hold you accountable to your own dreams.
You either cultivate the confidence and self trust required—or you don't.
No one will hold you to your vision.
And you and I already know: you’re going to do it.
Liberation has been blooming in you—your whole life.
The little voice—sometimes so quiet—relentlessly urging you forward on the path of your heart. Often even during the unlikeliest of circumstances, the times when you were the most far away.
Maybe it was the first time you left home with no true plan.
Maybe it was the time you spent skipping parties to write a book.
Maybe it was when you launched a product or a service…to crickets.
You walked across those coals each time, taking deep breaths and whispering, “I’m doing this.”
Even if you don’t always know exactly what this is.
You have come so far already.
You already know that when the opportunity arises, you're going to walk across the hot coals.
Because you’ve already done it—again and again and again.
Even if you didn’t exactly know that’s what you were doing.
The “hot coals moments” are not a “one-and-done” thing.
You are here to lead by example.
⫸ You will not be swayed by the fickle nature of other people’s opinions.
⫸ You will not be deterred by your parents’ invalidation.
⫸ You will not be moved by mean comments on Instagram.
⫸ You will not answer to who is or is not President.
Because what you’re here for is so much bigger than any of that.
When the external winds inevitably shift and change, you cannot be shaken.
Because you're not relying on anything in the external world to prove to you that it's okay for you to be here, to be who you came here to be.
You already know that you'll keep moving toward what calls you—whether or not anyone is watching.
Whether or not anyone is cheering you on.
Whether or not anyone believes in you or “gets” what you’re doing.
And that's why you're here. On this page.
Reading these words. Because you've already been living this way.
It's what has gotten you this far.
And now you're ready to root down even deeper, to anchor into the full scope of what you’re here to do
—and why.
You're ready to show up to your dreams and channel them down into the physical world like you were made for this moment...
Because you were.
And because you already have faith and confidence without seeing…
You're ready to be entrusted with more.
You want to know where you've come from. Who you've been. Who's with you.
To receive a broader scope of the picture.
STAR WALKER is a workshop for mystics, artists, visionaries, and Future Earth leaders who want to be resourced by more of the story.

You’re already in this for the long haul—and now you want to see the broader scope that will help them remember WHO YOU ARE and WHY YOU CAME TO EARTH.
You’re ready to be nudged forward by more than just quiet whispers and quiet intuition and subtle knowings.
You’re ready to become UNSHAKEABLE in your foundation.
In this experiential workshop we’ll cover:
⫸ How understanding the context of your soul's journey through the galaxy can help fortify you with the confidence you'll need for the journey ahead
⫸ Why activating your soul gifts and relentlessly pursuing the impulses of your heart is one of the most valuable things you can do at this chaotic time on the Earth plane
⫸ Why Earth needs more of her artists and visionaries to unapologetically activate their power—and LEAD
⫸ How your Galactic Guides are offering interdimensional support and guidance at this time—and how to connect with them
⫸ The importance of direct experience vs just endlessly consuming more information
This workshop is both transmission-based and experiential.
We’ll begin with about an hour of transmission-style teaching.
After a short break, we’ll reconvene for a guided quantum journey to connect with your galactic guides.
Additionally, inside the class portal, you’ll find BONUS quantum journeys so that you can continue to have a direct experience of your own Galactic Remembrance…long after the workshop ends.
Your conscious contact guide,
Lisa👽
