Demystifying the Spiritual Path

Awareness, Awakening, Consciousness, & Enlightenment

No longer on the fringes of everyday conversation, the spiritual path has evolved into both a journey and a destination for people seeking a deeper connection to themselves, others, and the world around them, regardless of culture or religion. 

Everybody’s path is uniquely their own. The concept of “trans-spiritual” – the integration of many beliefs, paths, and customs – continues to gain popularity. 

In this informative, entertaining, and “enlightening” keynote: 

  • Marissa shares her own personal spiritual evolution that has unfolded throughout her current lifetime and how it has shaped and informed her entrepreneurial journey.

  • She also demystifies the four foundational pillars of the spiritual path: Awareness, Awakening, Consciousness, and Enlightenment, and shares her most profound lessons from her most important teachers that have provided her guidance, wisdom, and comfort as she continues her own journey of Awakening and Enlightenment.

Stepping into Your POWER to Reach Your Highest Potential

We all temporarily forget the inner strength we possess, which is an unlimited, transformative resource we can access to create the life we want.

It’s time for you to discover your POWER:

  • Your life Purpose:  Why are you here? For many, the answer to this question is unclear, elusive, and ever-changing.

  • How you take Ownership for their outcomes:  Do you take full responsibility for where you are in your life, for how you feel, and for the path ahead? Or do you turn over your power to others around you?

  • How you define their self-Worth. What is your level of self-worthiness? No one will ever value us more than we value ourselves. 

  • The strength of your self-Efficacy.  What is your capacity for producing your desired result? Have you defined and evaluated all that you need to move from Point A to Point B? 

  • The strength of your Resilience. How strong is your ability to rise once you’ve fallen? Strengthening our Resilience muscle is essential for building our most joyful life.
