Just wanted to send a quick note to say I’m grateful for you and look forward to sharing more inspiration with you in 2025.
Do you celebrate the holidays? If so, how? I’ll be spending time at home with my family. I’m sending you good energy.
I just returned from Nigeria, West Africa. I’ve been to Nigeria four times, but my most recent trip was the one I enjoyed the most.
In 2025, I will be leading small groups to the sacred sites of Nigeria, and possibly Benin too. If this is something you are interested in, please let me know.
This pic was taken at Abeokuta, Nigeria, West Africa.
In the Yoruba language, Abeokuta means “under the rock.”
I’m standing near the bottom of an important historical site, sacred to the Yoruba people.
The sacred site, Olumo Rock, is a huge, boulder formation that protected our ancestors during ancient wars.
I hope to you get to experience it one day.
I travelled to Nigeria to help one of my clients. But I was also scouting locations for my documentary film project, Across the King’s River.
My trip to Nigeria changed me so much. I’m not the same person. The person who returned is not the person who went.
I believe another chapter of your life is awaits you, and that your ancestors have a plan to help you fulfill your purpose.
Don’t let past experiences stop you from opening your heart, taking risks, and living again.
I look forward to hearing from you. Happy Holidays once again.
Love James

A client reached out to me recently.
I was happy to hear from him. It was the first time we had spoken in many years.
There’s a new development in his life.
He’s a father again. His daughter is almost two.
2079823192
Here’s what amazed me about our conversation.
He reminded me I said he would have a daughter 12 years ago when I did a spiritual reading for him.
It blew me away. I had totally forgotten about it.
I’ve done more than one thousand spiritual readings so far and there’s no way I can remember all of them.
Here’s why I’m sharing this message.
What you want to achieve may take time.
And what I want to achieve will take time too. We’re all in this together.
And just because what you want might not happen now, it doesn’t mean it never will.
Stay focused. Keep planting seeds. Keep watering them.
Our society encourages us to think every goal we desire must happen right away.
If we start a business, we think money should start rolling in right away.
If we want to be in a relationship, we think we must find our soulmate right away.
We even rush when it comes to our spiritual journey.
I call it drive-through spirituality. And it’s complete nonsense.
Here’s the thing, we can order a drive-through burger and fries.
But we can’t expect drive-through wisdom, drive-through wealth, or drive-through relationships.
But your journey can be meaningful. Even when things don’t go our way.
2024 has been a challenging for so many. And life can bring one challenge after another. Or all at once.
I’m here to support you.
Respond to this message and I will write you back as soon as possible.
Blessings

On my way to New York to do a book signing and talk this Saturday, June 15th at the 256 Healing Center in Brooklyn.
If you happen to be in NYC, I would love to see you.
I’ll be sharing insights from my bestselling book, Meditations Across the King’s River.
And I’ll also be sharing tips for emotional, spiritual and financial wellness.
I didn’t just write a book.
I actively study and practice the things I wrote about. What I’ve learned is powerful.
It has changed my life…
Most people only know me as a spiritual advisor.
But I’m also a finance professional.
I’m a bookkeeper and I run my own accounting firm, and I’m also a forex trader and investor.
When I talk about finance, I’m not just talking. I know what I’m talking about.
You don’t have to struggle financially forever. But you must get educated, and you must take action.
You deserve a better life.
And you don’t have to struggle spiritually or emotionally forever. Your ancestors will help but get professional help too.
Hope to see you in NYC. I will be bringing some FIRE.

I heard from a client two days ago.
He’s been feeling overwhelmed even though he’s been praying and working on his spiritual practice.
“I feel unsure of what to do next with my life,” he said.
I feel his pain. What do you want the next step of your life to look like?” I asked.
“I would like my next step to be about deepening relationships and creating a sustainable family,” he said.
I hear this often from my clients. The search for deep relationships is universal.
But why is it so difficult to find and maintain relationships?
Would love to hear your thoughts.
Are you in a happy relationship?
I’ve been thinking about relationships a lot lately.
That’s why I added a section on soulmates and relationships in the 2nd edition of my book, Meditations Across the King’s River. Meditations Across the King’s River.
I don’t think relationships should be forced or rushed.
And let’s face it — everyone IS NOT a gem.
Gems are precious because they are rare and difficult to find. A gem will change your life.
If you haven’t experienced a relationship that you think is a gem, it doesn’t mean it will never happen for you. Sometimes it’s not the right season.
And sometimes we have to work on our own healing before we can enter a sustainable relationship.
I told my client to be patient, and to focus on other things in the meantime: like his spiritual and emotional health and whatever he feels passionate about.
This is all for now. Feel free to respond and I will write you back as soon as I can.

Bermuda was amazing…
And life changing. I went to Bermuda to promote my book, Meditations Across the King’s River and to do readings for clients.
I had so many sacred encounters. I’m still reflecting on the lessons I’ve learned, the love I felt, and the wisdom I shared.
Don’t get me wrong…
It wasn’t a vacation by any means.
In fact, I worked almost every day during my month-long stay on the island.
But I definitely left Bermuda feeling more inspired about my calling as a writer and healer.
I have more faith there’s is a Higher Power and a divine plan for our lives.
We can all tap into this Higher Power; We can all have more impact.
After Bermuda, I’m even more devoted to following inspiration and my calling.
I wish you could feel what I feel inside.
More joy! More gratitude! More clarity! I pray you experience these gifts too.
This photo with my friend, Alexa, was taken at John’s Smith Bay Beach, early one morning.
We didn’t swim. The water is too cold for swimming this time of year, she explained.
So we just walked and talked for a bit.
Alexa is a brilliant mind, a beautiful soul, and a great friend.
I love how she navigates through life. She’s not afraid to take chances. She speaks her mind.
She knows what she wants. She’s going after it.
Take a tip from Alexa.
You don’t have to be afraid to take chances either. This is your season. You deserve more!
Stop waiting for the perfect time. Stop waiting for another sign. You saw the sign already.
Go where you feel led. Just take the next step. Let the ancestors do the rest.
Another chapter is waiting for you. A universe beyond this universe.
It’s time for you to explore it.
If you don’t have the second edition of my book, Meditations Across the King’s River, we would love your support.
It’s a powerful collection of affirmations, insights and African-inspired wisdom.
MATKR was the number one new release on Amazon in two categories when it launched in January.
It has been featured in more than two hundred media outlets including Business Insider and Asia One, a leading media provider in Singapore.

Everything that happens to us or around us isn’t a sign.
Something might not be going your way right now, but is that a sign you’re on the wrong path?
Many spiritual advisors will say YES.
And that’s where I disagree. It might not be a sign at all.
If anything, maybe it’s a sign you shouldn’t give up and you need to keep going.
Maybe it’s a sign you need to dig deeper into your soul and remember why you got started in the first place.
This is how I see it.
Not too long ago I was invited to be a guest on a podcast. It never happened because I had problems twice when I tried to connect with the host for the live event.
He took it as a SIGN the interview isn’t meant to happen right now. He has not made plans to reschedule. Almost two months have passed.
REALLY?
I was disappointed. I was looking forward to sharing my insights with his audience.
So many of us give up too easily.
I often hear things like: “If I was meant to have a business, I wouldn’t be struggling so much.”
OR, “If I was really meant to be in a relationship, why am I not in relationship? OR, why do I find relationships so challenging, if I am meant to be in a relationship?”
OR, “If I’m really following my purpose, why is it so difficult?”
I don’t know what you’re going through right now.
But I do know now is not the time to abandon your dreams. I also know adversity can help us evolve spiritually even things are difficult.
I’m with you in Spirit. It’s not too late for you to find more success, or more love, or better health, or stronger finances in 2024.
Have faith things can improve, then do everything in your power to move your life forward.
Respond to this newsletter, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
Until then, may the Spirits of the ancestors, guide, bless, and protect you always.
All my love.
