What a bio, what, where would you like to start?
Kaci Myers:
I mean, it's, it's really up to you. My story is very full, so we probably won't be able to address everything, however, I'll get as much in as possible. No
Magic Barclay:
problem. So a war veteran, let's start there. What got you into the armed
Kaci Myers:
service? Well, I joined the Army a couple of months, um, after my mom tried to kill me. She literally attacked me. And it was a very strange time period of my life. I was, um, 16, turning 17 when my mother attacked me. And, uh, from there I literally was homeless. I stayed with a. Who had someone at her house who introduced the idea of the military to me. And, um, within the nine months, following the incident with my mom until I joined, I just experienced enough life to tell me, Hey, I needed to redirect myself. So I played on the Army's phone for a few weeks and eventually I got the courage to speak to somebody and they convinced me that it was a good idea and it.
Magic Barclay:
and I'm guessing you've seen a lot, experienced a lot, and we might delve into that in another episode, but it's kind of led you to where you are today. And so tell us about how what you do helps people accelerate their health.
Kaci Myers:
Well, currently, and for the last seven or eight years, what I've done is provide community-based information. Right now it is on an online platform where you can actually go listen to videos and podcasts of me talking about various subjects. but, so I. Really using social media to reach out to people. I would see people in need, whether they were suffering from grief of a loss or um, of a loved one or from divorce or any other life experience. And I would always want to add encouraging words. In addition to that, I was developing, at the time, I didn't know that I was developing a book, but it just sounded like it was something that would impact the world. So every time I came up with a. while healing myself, I would throw it out there to other people and say, Hey, so I was thinking about this theory and I think that this might be able to help you tell me if it applies, and all the time that I would. Give people the information. It would work. It would help them to unlock and uncover and discover things about themselves and their purpose. Um, it has helped people to stay married, get married, or reconnect, um, old relationships. Um, the work that I do is geared towards community-wise. About providing general information that helps people to grow beyond their current circumstance no matter where they are. My goal is to take millionaires to billionaires, billionaires to trillionaires. If you're a hundred there, I want you to be a thousandaire. If you live in an apartment, I want you to own a house. If you desire to do those things, is to take you to the next level. So my whole purpose and goal is giving people the information that can help them. I'm a resource so that other people can get plugged into God as the original source. So I see myself really as a vessel of God because if I feel something intuitively, I share it with other people and hope that they are in tune with God in a way to where whatever it is that I feel it will make sense to them.
Magic Barclay:
And so why do you think people are not in tune with themselves? What's the key finding? That you have stumbled across working with people?
Kaci Myers:
The biggest dilemma that I believe in working with people is the fact that people are generally Dismissive and in denial about their issues. They are used to being told to either act like it never happened. So like when you talk about most religious, um, settings tell you to deny the bad parts of you instead of learning to love and grow and really. um, get to understand why you have whatever bad qualities you might have to get you to understand, um, what makes you operate and move the way that you do. Because everything is based in behavior patterns. So if you can understand how you begin to, um, project certain behaviors, you can grow yourself and grow the world around you. Tremend.
Magic Barclay:
Now we talk about wealth here. We're not just talking financial, but also emotional and spiritual wealth. So what would be your top three tips to creating any type of
Kaci Myers:
wealth? The first thing, um, and the reason why I am so stuck on soul growth and healing, um, at the core level is because it doesn't matter how much money you obtain. If your soul is in disarray, then you will find yourself. In a sunken place. Now, that can be a spiritual sunken place. It can be a mental sunken place. It can be a physical sunken place. But the first and key core thing with any type of wealth is to, um, begin to heal and address your soul so that you can sit with yourself so that you can trust your own ideals so that you can underst. The path that you are on and why you're on it, so you won't continue to make the same mistakes. So once you lock into your purpose, the next thing, um, which ties into locking into your purpose, is really, truly loving and accepting yourself because it is hard to obtain wealth if you're always balancing what's important to you based on somebody else. So if you are always. Looking to please others. If you are always looking to compete, if you are always feeling insecure within yourself, so you feel like you gotta con, um, be better than the next person, then in that situation you will end up. Really hurting yourself because you'll spend unnecessary money trying to impress people that really don't care or really may not even be paying you attention. The last thing is diligence. Um, in order to really obtain wealth, spiritual wealth, um, health, wealth, um, financial wealth, you have to be diligent. You have to really decide within yourself and then follow through with. Taking the risks, having faith and walking out what you believe your purpose is, no matter what comes your way.
Magic Barclay:
Now we talk about weight loss here, Dr. Casey and mm-hmm Many people needlessly battle with their weight, maybe their perception of self. It may be not loving themselves, and I know that you talk about sex and. in a lot in your work. How can you tie what people see on their outer shell with what's inside them and, and how can you help people go through that process?
Kaci Myers:
So one of the best books that I read was a book by, Doreen, she works with, well, she used to, I think she caught up hold of religion and now she has kind of denounced all of her angelic work. But she had a, a book about angels and in that book it talked about how when we are. Using our spiritual gifts, it can manifest within ourself. So a person that may have a strong intuition and if they're not helping people, then it can cause them to carry more weight. It can cause them to be more depressed. It can cause them to seek. the gratification that they need from fulfilling their purpose within food. Sometimes it's not just food, though, sometimes your weight issues could be thyroid disorder. And, um, a lot of times, uh, because your thyroid and your metabolism is something that people don't put two and two together. A lot of people don't realize that they have thyroid issues. Personally, I deal with Graves disease, which means my metabolism is extremely fast. Um, I had to get radiation treatment for them to slow my metabolism down and kind of try to shrink my thy. But then it left me to where my metabolism goes too slow normally with a person with a low functioning thyroid. and I am not trying to diagnose anyone, but this is me just giving you information about some things that can play a effect on your way. When you have a low functioning thyroid, you gain weight. It means your metabolism isn't going or keeping up with the amount of food that you take in. So some weight issues can be from a lack of, exercise or too much food, but some are medical issues that really have to go and be addressed. And sometimes when you're dealing with your thyroid, Or an autoimmune disorder. They may not really be able to understand what it is at first, but you have to be persistent. So a part of health being wealth and managing weight, you have to go and be seen so that you can know what is going on with your body. That doesn't mean take on everything that they say. It doesn't mean believe whatever reports that they give. It's the if they're a negative, but you need to know what's going on so that you know how to. Um, another thing is, uh, blood type. Your diet should be somewhat based on your blood type. Again, I am not a clinical physician, so I'm not telling you what to do. I am just giving you some tips that you can take back to your physician that may be able to help you. the other thing is mental. Some of it is just, Discouragement People sometimes, again, have suffocated their gifts so much to where they don't even know how to be themselves. They have been led. I don't wanna say it straight, but they've been led by the voices of the people around them to where they don't even know who they are. So even if they wanted to get in better shape, it would take a lot of self love and really redirection of their own mentality about themselves. Because if you look around, there are people that are overweight that have amazing amount of confidence, and then there are people that are extremely. And don't have confidence, but. Does not equate to healthy. And I think that it's the best. And the biggest thing that I can say is skinny does not equate to healthy. Just because you're skinny does not mean that you are healthy. So don't allow the numbers on the scale to make you feel some type of way. Really take a minute. Ask yourself, do you feel healthy? Do you have energy? And how can you go about increasing those things? It could be a slight change in diet. Maybe you don't need as much fast food if you can cook at home, and then cooking at home will save you some money too. So it is a way to get around everything. But the first thing is learning yourself. Go get a physical, understand what's going on with your body so that you know what you need to work. The last and the most simplest thing that you could do. Walk 30 minutes a day, and you will begin to see changes in your body.
Magic Barclay:
Very, very well said. Now we've kind of covered the basic three questions. I wanna go back to your bio. something that you said was that you're an ordained minister, but non-religious people are probably wondering, how does that work?
Kaci Myers:
So here in the United States, um, becoming an ordained minister gives you the ability to marry people. Um, it also gives you the ability to be a pastor, of a congregation. But church is not necessarily, It's religious, but it doesn't have to be. There are different variances of, religious services. Now, when I say I'm not religious, this is just to clarify that I am not Christian. although I believe in Jesus and there are some aspects of the Bible that I definitely support. I also believe in the. That can be proven from documentation that the Bible can't support, doesn't support, or oftentimes leads back to an Egyptian story that has been distorted so that the Bible seems more, legitimate than other things. So as a spiritual leader, Who develops books and coaches, people on spirituality as a human. This is where I fit into the realm of an ordained minister. I also have dreams, and I'm very intuitive. So in that realm of life and light, it fits perfectly. My goal is a hundred percent soul. Completeness. That means sexuality. That means spirituality. That means, um, understanding your quote unquote demons. That means getting acquainted with your weaknesses instead of denying things that most religions tell you to deny or act like doesn't exist, or, you know, the magic wand of the blood or a name or something else. It's opposed to mentally make things go right, um, isn't realistic. It isn't really sound as far as healing because avoiding things doesn't make them go away. So my goal is to help people to address every aspect of being human so that you can really live a full and fruitful life.
Magic Barclay:
