Updates: cats & work

This was an impromptu episode. I just wanted to share some very good news with the audience. Good news about the cats and good news about the new application I created, Quick Link 5-star Direct. I am so very happy about it. Also, it relates to the good news about work. I am feeling relief finally. www.QL5D.com [http://www.QL5D.com] Garden of Eden | [https://shoplyndseysmith.io/products/garden-of-eden]lyndseysmith.io [http://lyndseysmith.io] www.lyndseysmith.io [http://www.lyndseysmith.io] www.devlyndseysmith.io [http://www.devlyndseysmith.io]

Animal Abuse, The Gays and The Ego

Today's episode cover image is a provocative one — a dog using a pride flag as a bathroom. I want to be upfront that this image is meant to illustrate a point I make in the episode, not an endorsement of what it depicts. In this episode I get into three topics I've been sitting with for a while: animal abuse, being gay, and the ego. I share my perspective on why I believe animals and humans choose certain experiences before coming into this life, including hard ones, and how that shapes the way I think about advocacy and causes. I also talk about a comment I left on a friend's Facebook post and the conversation that followed, sharing my personal experiences and how I think trauma shapes identity. Finally, I get into one of my favorite topics — the ego — including how I communicate with mine, how I believe it works differently for neurodivergent people, and why I think the "ego and soul becoming one" idea taught in a lot of spiritual circles doesn't resonate with me. This one's a lot to sit with. Take what serves you and leave the rest.

Cats

Welcome to Season 7. This is episode one and things are shifting. I open with an update on the tourmalines and share what they showed me about how they want to be stored and charged — and why I believe the sun not the moon is the right energy for that. I also share my long held belief that the feminine and the sun are connected in ways we've been deliberately misled about. From there I get into what's been going on with my cat Petunia, the ongoing house pissing situation, and how it's affecting my relationship with all of my cats. It's heavy and it's honest. On a more exciting note I share something that came out of a moment of pure frustration — I sat down with Claude's new Fable model and asked it to build me a website that could make me money, and what it created is genuinely clever and directly connected to my own experience with Google reviews. You can check it out at ql5d.com [http://ql5d.com]. I also give a work update including a situation with a coworker that tested my patience, and something that happened on the job that bothered me more than it probably should have — because if you know me, you know I don't lie. Links to all my websites are in the description below.

The Tourmaline's

Today I share something I've been sitting with after a really interesting experience with two pieces of tourmaline. I talk about how I asked the universe to give them consciousness, what happened when I held them, and how I used them on my cats with results I wasn't expecting. I also get into my belief that consciousness can inhabit anything — stones, water, natural materials — and what that means for how we interact with the world around us. I share some thoughts on a TikTok video I came across that validated something I've been talking about on this podcast for a while, and I have some feelings about that. I give an update on work at the restaurant, share some exciting news about a potential new web development client that came through a connection at my job, and talk through a very real and very specific dilemma I have about meeting him for the first time. I also share where I'm at with interviews going forward and get into my frustrations with TikTok and Apple and what I think is actually going on behind the scenes with both. A lot covered in a short episode today.

My Week

Just me tonight, sitting down with no real plan and a lot on my mind. I talk about the harassment situation that's been following me from TikTok into my real life, including some fake Google reviews that were left at my new job with my name in them. I read them out loud and share my thoughts on what's really going on energetically with people who do things like this. I also share a story from earlier this week involving a neighbor, a barking dog, and six cop cars that showed up at 7am — and why I have zero regrets about how I handled it. I get into what it's been like starting a new job and what I've observed about energy, wealth, and how people treat the people who serve them. I share some exciting news about a website I just finished building for a local business and why developing makes me genuinely happy. And then we go deep — my theory that Elon Musk and Nikola Tesla are the same soul frequency, what AI said when I brought it to the table, simulation theory, data centers, and what I think the next 25 years might look like. Unplanned, unfiltered, and exactly what it needed to be.
