Those who have confusion regarding the people in their lives or why they keep attracting a
certain type of person. Those who believe they are on a Twin Flame journey. Those who have a
hard time with spirituality because they need “proof.” Those who have been floundering with
what their purpose is, or what the bigger picture is, or why they’re here. Those who have gone
through an Ego Degradation and have no idea what happened or is currently happening to them.

How much research did you need to do for your book?

A lot! I spent months upon months researching scientific principles such as Quantum Physics,
Quantum Entanglement, String Theory, the Holographic Principal, etc. I didn’t want this book to
be “unprovable” or too New Age. I wanted skeptical readers to broaden their minds and I wanted
those who are already spiritual to feel like there is something concrete to their beliefs. I also
spent months talking to people about their own journeys with the people in their lives. With
regards to the spiritual philosophy woven into the book, that is a culmination of fifteen years of
my teachings and research along the way.

How long did it take you to write this book?

A year and a half.

What inspired you to write this book?

My own Twin Flame journey. When I started my YouTube channel and people were saying to me
“You’re the only person who talks about these specific aspects of the journey,” I realized that
what I thought was common knowledge regarding lessons and Soul Family were in actuality not
being spoken about at all. I wanted to give people a comprehensive guide to the entirety of the
Soul Family, and not just focus on one member. It’s the Soul Family as a whole that provides the
answers to all of the questions.

What are Karmic lessons?

There are two types of Karmic lessons. There are the Core Karmic lessons, which are Self-Love,
Self-Worth, and Non-Attachment. They are the basis of what I call “Symptom Karmic Lessons,”
which are the things we get triggered on, on a more daily basis: fear of abandonment, lying,
safety, pride, materialism, self-criticism, etc. All Symptom Karmic Lessons stem from your Core
Karmic Lesson.

How do you define the concept of Soul Family, and what significance does it hold in our lives?

The Soul Family is just a title given to certain types of people that our Ego can categorize:
Karmic relationships, Soulmates, Soul Tribes, and Twin Flames. In all honesty, it doesn’t matter
what we categorize these members as, or what label they hold. That desire to categorize and
“understand” is the Ego doing what it does best: looking for control. Ultimately, all of thesepeople are created by us for us, in order to remember that we are the universe manifested in physical form, and to experience ourselves through Ego and all of its creations.

Can you explain the role of the Ego in shaping our perceptions of reality and our
relationships?

Ego is pretty much your “reality.” It’s what you perceive, believe, think, feel, see, know, judge,
etc. Ego is our best tool but worst enemy. It has allowed us to evolve as a species, but it is also
what creates trauma responses, triggers, Symptom Karmic Lessons, and the Core Karmic Lesson.
It’s what makes us perceive everything as separate from “I,” even though the Ego is not “I.” And
when we feel separate from everything else, we can feel attacked, or judged, or different, or
alone. The Ego creates dualities: up/down, right/wrong, light/dark. And when you have dualities,
you have the recipe for a lot of pain when things don’t go the way of your Ego’s expectations.

What do you hope readers will gain from your book in terms of navigating their
connections with others?

I hope that the book will simply give a blueprint to the people manifested in our lives in this
Ego’s incarnation, and their reason for being there. When you go through an Ego Degradation
(which you most likely will at some point), hopefully this book can hold your hand and help
explain what you’re feeling, why you’re feeling it, and who in your life helped you get there (and
why).

How do you recommend readers approach healing past traumas within the context of their relationships?

I recommend looking at each relationship under a magnifying glass. Journal about the people in
your life who have affected you in some way (whether egoically negatively or positively). What
do they have in common? What did they each make you feel? Is there a correlating pattern?
When was the first time in your life that you felt this way? What is it triggering for you? And
when you find the trigger and the base of the trigger, that’s where you begin the healing work by
reframing the Ego’s perspective.

What are some common misconceptions people have about Soul Family relationships, and how do you address them in your book?

The first one is that the Soul Family members are stand-alone “characters” that have nothing to
do with each other. I encourage readers to look at the macro of the situation and not the
microcosm of Ego. Each Soul Family member is intertwined and interconnected, and you can’t
have one without the other. The second misconception is that Union with a Twin Flame is with
an actual person. Union is never with a 3D manifested tangible “other” person. Union is with the
self. Always.

What advice do you have for readers who may be struggling to find their Soul Family or feel disconnected from their current relationships?

No one is struggling to find their Soul Family. Look around you; all of the people in your life are
your Soul Family. They’re there for a reason. Your parents, your siblings, your immediate family.
Your friends, your partner, your past partners and your future ones. Your boss, your pets, your
coworkers and that person who said something to you randomly at a party and it changed your
thought process moving forward. All of these people are there to teach you lessons. It’s up to you
to figure out what those lessons are. If you’re disconnected from your current relationships, is it
all relationships or just a certain one? If it’s a certain one, it’s probably time to let that person go,
as they have taught you the lesson you were meant to learn from them, OR, you haven’t learned
your lesson no matter how much it’s been shown to you, and the Higher Self says “enough.” If
it’s all relationships, do you have any other signs of Ego Degradation?

What fundamental shift in perspective or understanding about the nature of relationships and interconnectedness do you believe humanity needs to undergo in order to truly embrace the concept of the Soul Family and its implications for personal growth and collective evolution?

I will say this, and my clients will back me up: if everyone truly understood that we are all the
same, there would be less war, less judgment, less power dynamics, less dichotomy, less
hypocrisy, less resistance, less Symptom Karmic Lessons, less everything that the Ego views as
“negative.”

In what ways do our deepest wounds and traumas shape the dynamics of our Soul Family connections, and how can we transform these experiences into opportunities for healing and growth for ourselves and our interconnected relationships?

For example, if you have fear of abandonment as a Symptom Karmic Lesson, you will most
likely bring in a lot of Karmic relationships who continuously abandon you. Soul Family
members will hit you on the levels where the lesson is, so you will continuously be reminded that
the fear of abandonment is something you need to work on. If the Ego gets so bombarded by it
but isn’t learning, a Soulmate may come in to gently guide you through the lesson. But a
Soulmate’s purpose is to push you into Ego Degradation. So maybe in that Ego Degradation, you
remember that you are the universe and can never actually be abandoned because you’ve created
everything. Finally, the lesson has been learned. You will then bring in Soul Family members
afterwards to teach you a new lesson.

Can the concept of Soul Family extend beyond human relationships to encompass
connections with the natural world and the universe at large, and if so, what implications does this have for our stewardship of the planet and our cosmic role?

The Soul Family is simply a tool in this incarnation, created by your current Ego in order to
remind you that you are the universe manifested in physical form. You are the creator. You are all
and the Only. You have created everything in existence. So whether you remember that in this
Ego or another, you are always connected with the natural world and the universe because you
are the natural world and the universe.

How do our individual journeys of self-discovery and enlightenment intersect and
intertwine within the broader tapestry of our collective Soul Family evolution, and what responsibilities do we hold in facilitating each other’s awakening?

We hold zero “responsibility.” Responsibility is an Egoic concept, but working within that
framework, it is each Ego’s “responsibility” to learn its own lessons, grow, and expand. There is
no “individual” except what Ego creates through perception. You are me and I am you, and we
are only differentiated by our own Egos perceiving the other Ego as separate.

Thank you so much for agreeing to do this. I really appreciate it.
