Speaker 1

Get your right right with me and get excited about faith can move mountains. All you have to have is faith the size of a mustard seed. And truly I tell you nothing will be impossible for you. Do you hear me? All you gotta have is a little bit of faith. Do you know how small a mustard seed is? Like you could almost barely pick it up with the pinch of your fingers. And it's just that one drop, that one drop that can innite us to live our

best lives because it's something that we believe in. It's something that gives us a drive, it's something that matters to us. And when you think about it, we're spiritual beings having a human experience right with this energy form coming down in this physical form, in this matter. So why not make this time matter? And it can matter by going after something that drives you, that forces you to have faith, that forces you to believe in something that only an inkling of it you can grab too.

But that's how all in you gotta be. That's how all in you gotta be with God. If you think about it, we have this idea that we've heard about him, and so many books have been written in references for eons and eons creating things that are beyond magical, and those that believe it's because they know, when they know why, experience right right, And we have it now in lives where people are going after their dreams and they tell you in these circumstances and we look at it as

as amazing. Oh they had was a little bit of faith. So if your faith can move mountains, do you understand that your doubt can create them? Come on, if we're here to live life on purpose and for a purpose, why would we create obstacles in our way? If we are designed to live our best lives in abundance, why would we want anything blocking our view? But here's the thing. Remember there's a blessing and every lesson because when you get on top of that mountain, oh my, the view.

But we're talking about moving them, right, not creating them. So why are you doubting yourself? You know, if this idea came to you and even thinking about it when we're children, and we heard in the scripture it says, um have that of a mind of a child. Right, if it was given to us as a child freely, well, we would have put on a blanket tied around our necks, been Superman or having a tea party with the Kings and Queens of Zamunda. That was the reality. With that dollhouse,

with that little up motorized car. With that what do I have play school? Remember that car with the yellow top and it had the red body and used your feet? I called you like the Flintstone car, but a car like that and it was automobile. So what happened to dreaming? All it takes is that little bit to do something that is impossible in making it possible. So why are you letting doubt get in the way. Remember faith can move the mountains, and you have to have faith and

the things that matter. Who're not gonna be here forever, and looking at everything that's happening with COVID nineteen, it's just charged to make you think a little bit more. Go after it. Stop the outing yourself. It's just another month, and if it came to you want to execute it, it'll find its way to get through because you're being obedient to what's true to you, and what's true to you it comes to you, whether it's something that you have to curate inform or just something that excites you.

It's your thing. Sometimes it can be either the key to open the door. It was a very pathway to get through the door. You understand what I'm saying. Like I think about myself, Um, my purpose has always been too inspired. Uh. When I was in eighth grade, my teacher Ms. Carmel rest in Peace, she introduced me to

this quote, I make myself what I am. And I've always taken pride and speech and speaking and talking, and I've always just been destined to say, I'm going to make myself but I am no matter what it is gonna be, I'm gonna have the faith that Dawn Day can make herself who she stands to be. Okay, Yeah, it wasn't until I got to uh high school. I think it was curated the way like, Okay, Dawn, you can get paid to speak, and we gotta do that because I love the art of performers. Been doing that

since I was going to half at door. Uh So the whole performing aspect that when you see me doing the improv and with Cosmic Forest comedy and studying at the Groundlings, all that was curated as a child. But I look at how I I'm sitting right now something to say said sit with you, because you know we had to gather gaging it, as I said, with you, and and and exposing my Vitamin D my light right my gift to shed light to others. I wouldn't have

gotten here. It hadn't taken something I was good, and that's getting information and making it juicy, uh, making it resonate, knowing what's trending, knowing how to produce, knowing how to get content. And it took me curating that digital content that got me an opportunity to have a platform such as this, to be on several podcast platforms with my Vitamin D podcast. Did you hear me? So when I talk about having faith, you gotta have something that you

believe in. Because when Vitamin D first started, I was in New York with my Samsung USB microphone is this little microphone and has like three lags. He plugged in the computer with my comforter um my mentor skip dealer gave me that. And I will be sweating because I couldn't cut the air on because we had the window air conditioners and as you know, um, New York can get hot. But I had to sound proof and there I am in Los Angeles, California. Still not just yet.

I have my own, you know, studio booth. But I got a rape from microphone. I got my road cast a pro. My podcasts are on several podcast platforms. Stop playing with me. So I say all that to say that either it can be the key or the door for my digital content. And that expertise, that was the key to walk to this door to have my podcast here, to put me in connection because I had to use I was good at that exercise, my gift to shine. Okay, So I just say for you, don't doubt yourself everything

that you're good at. Use it as a seed and plant them and water them and see where that grow. Be. Guess whether I'm on stage doing some empire or you hear my voice on the commercial, or I'm on my next film, my talk show. Hai, that made me take going. That's another thing. That's how you know when something is for you, when it makes you tingle inside. That literally just a jol to a man. I'll receive it. Oh a man, oh ebo ebo, shalah. Let me just feel it.

It's coming. It's coming. You're hearing me, it's coming. Oh my god, my show is coming and I can feel it. I know always end up crying. But what I tell you, when you can feel your dreams like that, it's just like having a love over yourself and God just holding on it. What the God? Ain't you your energy? Your vibe? Remember I said it was a feeling that stirred up. Ah, I'm not even on my yacht yet, in my my

booth in my yacht. I'm in my living room in my Los Angeles apartment, Okay, but I can feel it. That's strong. I can feel it. That's why you gotta have faith. Because if I did not have faith, probably I would have been discouraged long time ago. What I was sweating under my microphone, stuttering, having to reread it over and over again, criticizing myself because I didn't sound

how I thought I was supposed to sound. Or you know, perhaps when I would be so tired and getting up at three o'clock in the morning because I had to be able to get to work, I could have been discouraged not having a car, being embarrassed having to take this bus down town, uh to go to my program. When I was in high school, it was called scoop. The Public Benefit Corporation. That's what taught me about producing. Huh. That's when I noticed or knew that I had a

voice and people want to hear it. Crystal Stokes rest in Peace. She was a student there, two years older than me, and she wanted me to voice the project for her on mental health disorders. And I did, And the next thing I know, everybody else was asking me to, uh voice there's and I said, wait a minute, do I have something, So shout out to Leticia McCree, Ms McCree, excuse me, shout out to Ms mcrey, Shout out to Miss mac Mauree McCarthy, Um Ryan Randall, Mr Walter, and

everybody over there. So that's what I knew. But I'm saying I could have stopped a long time ago because just looking at the years of how you know, it wasn't perfect, it wasn't right. I didn't know where to go. I had to take a chance. You know, I could have stopped. When Vitamin D curated his name, I mean I was sitting in a circle with Glory and Dan Yale and we were determined every time that I would Uh. I was working in music choice, so we had these vhs cassette tapes that we had to used to the

video of the preview. I had to rate them, and I said, I always had this dream that I was gonna um inspire people, So how could I do where I was? And voiceovers were always part of the vision. So how is deprising into my life bank account? Which is one of the principles that we talked about with Vitamin D. Because I had to create a weekly newsletter, so I used to email it to just the people, uh, just Danielle and Glory. Then it became to my friends and then I was like, boom, I'm doing all the

music choice. Then I was like boom, I'm doing everybody I know. And then I was like, oh, let me add the voice component because people want to hear, so I started including the SoundCloud. Then it's a one person and my goodest shame on me. I'm a grabb her name when it comes to my head. But she saw me having the vision. You see faith without works as

dead because you gotta already operate in and see. You gotta already sew your seeds everything that you have right, because then you start to water them with your your sweat equity and then your tears of the triumph. And then also people start watering for you because they say, oh, something's growing here. M hm, oh wait a minute. Faith the size of a mustard seed. You gotta have faith because that's the seed and that's what you're gonna use

to water to make it grow. See. The seed are the dreams and the faith is the water wet And they say where the water, that's where life is. See, that's what people want to invest in you, and they want to water on you. See that's why you gotta already do the work, because you are the seed. And if you are willing to go deep, oh, if you aren't willing to tap in, oh my gosh, then what am I gonna water? You can't skip the ground. You can't.

And you'll learn on the way of the tips and tricks to get around and say I went everywhere because you know, like I told you, vitamin did. It's like I'm unraveling, it's how I'm thinking. So I'm hoping you check in with me. Well to the mind of dawn to hey, but they took that for people to want to water on me and say, hey, this email marketing service. And then because I was doing this I began to get exposed, and people like my mentor Skip Detherer got me the mic and and then I began to get

my home Mike. I began to figure it out. But it took that little Dawn that used to watch her my other reading in the library, reading the books looking at her. She would go through all these characters, and the little boy said, who did you want to go there? And I would be like, why is she so dramatic? Thank you, mommy, rest in peace. Here's another thing. I'm just realizing myself how many times I've had to say

rest in peace in this conversation, life is short. I did start off by saying, how we're here about a finite amount of time, but life is short. You better live and you can sit here all day having all this doubt, creating these mountains of why you can't do something mean while deep down inside you're yearning and you're burning to make something happen. All in takes is a little bit, a little seed, a mustard seed, just so that you can understand how small it is, just a

tiny inkling of belief. Think of it like a star in the sky in the galaxy, how far away it's just this little tiny light. The mustard seed is like the light inside of you. If you go deep, deep, deep down enough with your seed, you water it and do the work. Imagine how you're gonna shine, how you gonna grow? And guess what. That little bit of sea can move mountains. You hear what I'm saying. That little

bit of seed can move a mountain. Meanwhile, if you're forgetting who you are, how amazing you are, how complex? How the fact that you only use a peanuts size in your brain, and we talk about people being geniuses out here, dog, could you imagine and we were using our entire brain anywhere? Another episode? But the fact that that little seed could light up your life, that could light up so many people. We see it when people

go after their dreams. When we see the people like the Queen latif Us, she's gonna be on the podcast. Oh that's the whole of episode. I touched on it a little bit before when I talked about my dream and speaking things into existence with c J. Gross episode Um, the Greater Division. But I say all that to say, like the Oprah Wine Freeze, like the Steve Harvey's, like the Beyonce's, like the day zs like the Madam C. J. Walkers at the India Rres, like the you like me.

We have the ability to light of the world. And I think these messages they come in so many different ways. Whether we're saying this little light of mine, I've been singing that light, I'm gonna let it shine on the past few episodes for a reason, because it's just that

little bit. And you know, with that little bit of sea, just so that you can comprehend how the magnitude of that little bit of seeing inside of you that I can light up the world, right, it can move mountains, just so you can imagine how huge a mountain is. So whatever obstacle you think is in your way, that little bit of sea, that it's smaller than your fingertip can move what you think is ginormous, bigger than your home, some people's mansions, bigger than as far as I could see.

That faith can move that. That's what that means. So whatever it is that you're going after, you cannot lose your faith, you understand me, because your faith can move mountains. Your faith can move mountains. Truly, I tell you it's in Matthew seventeen twenty I'm telling you might believe in you, and I want you to believe in you too, especially while we're here. Let's make it matter. Hi, that was I enjoyed that. Um, that was dope, right, I'm enjoying this.

It's interesting, you know, we were playing things out of how we think our dreams are gonna manifest, what it looks like, how this perfect condition, how it's supposed to be, and when we just realized how present just being in the here and now, which again the groundings that taught me that. You're gonna hear me talk about it a lot because it's so transformational in my life and and as I see my dreams unfold, these are all the components that are helping my dreams come true. Do you

understand me? That's I can sit here and there now and talk to you as if you're right here sitting next to me, because look here you really are. But it taught me that, and I got a lot of long ways to go, but I'm excited about this at tourney. I'm just so excited because when I see little dot and i'd be at the field, I was always this kid that would put up this piece on and I would cross my eyes and duck my lips out, and I would I would go to all the Nickelodeon shows.

I try to get slide go into the booth reenacted Michael McDonald and Christ Site of Miss Swan oh Man Man. So we had to know that I'm walking in and it's helping me in so many ways. It's helping me remember like a child, to just play, to get out of my head, to stop judging myself. And like I said, I got a ways to go, but I gotta stay with that faith to stand true a doing daughter, making it do what it do. So remember your faith can move mountains. So whatever it is, so that seed you

deserve it. Can you imagine the fruit that you're gonna bear. Can you imagine what it's gonna be like living out your wildest dreams where life feels good. It doesn't necessarily mean that everything is always going to quote unquote feel good, but you know that it's all good because you're learning, you're grown, when you're shaping, you're learning how to value. You know you desire to enjoy this ride call live. You only get one shot at it, just one, and

that's a fact. Ah. Remember your faith can move mountains and your doubt can create them. I want that for you. I want them for me because you know we're all happy, like it's just abundance and it's just overflowed and it feels good to feel good. Mean while I also want UM made Martin on here just as a show called feel Good. It was good. UM reached time. They declined. I celebrated because hey, you gotta celebrate every victory. And the victory is that was my first rejection to be

on my podcast. So yes, I'm gonna fail my way towards success and I'm claiming I'm gonna get her. There's a lot to be learned. I saw the picture. I don't know what of the producers. I don't have my phone on me right now, but um, African American woman, I see Eve is doing something on this on the Netflix show. It's uh, it's a UK shows based on the UK, but it's phenomenal. They had to Detroit, Jersey on there and like that spoke to me. I'm from

Detroit and the year was born eight sex. What up though? May Marion come on, come on, I want to talk to you about this. It was beautiful. You see how I'm going everywhere, but in my faith, all of this is gonna happen. So I wanted to happen for you. I want you to see me. I want to come across your your article. I wanna um walk into your store. I want to use your product. I want to say because of you, I feel good because it's something that

you created. I feel good and you tell me about it because when you didn't have it, you had that faith. I don't want you to tell me what that faith there for you, because it's yours. For the asking, that's the Clark Sisters. I'm gonna get them as well. I'm here there from Detroit. Um, I know so many people. I'm excited. I'm so excited. I'm so excited. I'm excited for you. So what's your thing? Huh? What is it?

Write it down? Have ac to to write the vision and make it plain and something about knowing what's on the inside, that spiritual part right and making it madder putting in the physical form, because that's what we're doing right. We're making it matter where in essence we're matter right, and make it matter so you can see it and then look at it because it's inside of you and

you can see it as well. And I think that's also one of the things that's so important about the having the vision board is the spirit and the physical having the communication okay, and we gotta say it so we can hear it. That's part of the few physical form all of this. This is about some of the seat manifesting, affirmations, meditation. It is all about going in, digging deep. Whoa Andnandaluis we talked about that.
