Abandoning Cycles Podcast
Abandoning Cycles is a transformative podcast dedicated to those ready to step out of patterns rooted in relationships that no longer serve their growth. Whether shaped by caregivers, friends, or partners, these cycles often run deep—impacting our self-worth, decisions, and identity. Through honest conversations, expert insights, and real-life stories, we explore how to recognize harmful dynamics, unlearn inherited behaviors, and cultivate healthier relationships with ourselves and others. This podcast is your guide to letting go, healing, and integrating new, empowering cycles through neural pathways in the brain that align with who you're becoming—not who you've been or were told to be.

Minisode: Preparing for the BreakFree
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you're here, it's not a coincidence. This minisode is for those who are ready to break emotional, mental, and spiritual cycles and step into a new phase of transformation.
We'll explore what it means to enter the darkness before the breakthrough, release burdens that were never yours to carry, and recognize when people or patterns are holding you back from your growth. As you reflect on your chrysalis journey, you'll be invited to envision what breaking free looks like for you.
Homework: Examine where your energy is going. If it isn't being invested in yourself, where is it being spent—and is it serving your highest good?
Protect your light, peace, and happiness. Your transformation is closer than you think.
Peace, light, and love.
Hi and welcome to the learning cycles. My name is Tom, and I am a holistic and spiritual life coach. If you're here, it is not a coincidence. A energy, a life force, something brought you here. Maybe you are a conduit, maybe you are a light healer, maybe you are a light traveler, maybe you are just searching for answers beyond the basic. Whatever the reason is, welcome. I hope this episode is able to resonate with you. This episode is a mini episode, because that's what I've been told to provide. And if you have been following my podcast episodes in the past, then you would know that a lot of the information that I receive is from the divines, the spirits, the universe, the higher power, whatever you refer, just life higher than just the basic, as that's where my information comes from. And it's brought to me in so many different ways, and so many different visions and things that um these the spirit, the divines, the higher powers want me to relay to people. So as we get started, this podcast um is related more so to what we have been discussing already, which is the chrysalis phase, but we're in and we have been discussing the dark phase of the chrysalis phase. This mini episode is for the next phase, the last phase of the Chrysalis, which is basically coming out of the chrysalis, right, and preparing for it. But this episode is so particular in a way where the divines wanted me to share things um or share that the vision in relation to quotes. I I don't I don't know why, or I don't question why either. I just provide the message. So everybody has experienced a time, or I mean, for the most part, you know, it's gonna look different for everybody, of course, and this this message is gonna reach everybody at a different time or different stage in their life, but for the most part, everybody has reached a time in their lives where they have felt like they have walked through life blindly, especially particularly when when making a decision and or making tough decision, right? You had to find the courage and be kind where there is you know moments where there is no kindness, right? Or there you felt like maybe there was no goodness, but you still had to be able to make wise decisions and have that courage and that kindness and that goodness to be able to know that you just gotta trust the path, the journey, right? So as we enter this phase, this new chapter in preparation for coming out of this cocoon, right, and thinking to yourself, when have I ever gone through a phase where it felt like I was lost and then it was dark, and then I had this breakthrough where I was able to see very clearly, and I was able to connect with life on such a higher level. And in the last episode, we talked about a lot of abilities, at least the last one or two episodes, abilities that you may possess, and if you're a light seeker, a light healer, a light traveler, then you most definitely possess something that a lot of people search for. So if you have made the conscious decision to cut people off who no longer benefit you, or taking a step back from individuals, because sometimes you just can't cut people off because they won't allow you to do so, or it may be difficult for you to do so, and then you have made the conscious decision to be able to tap into just a part of you that has always been there, but needs to grow, needs to be nurtured, and if no one is going to invest in you, then you have to do it yourself. I don't know if any of you have actually sat and thought about the seasons that we go through. When I say seasons, I don't I don't mean anything to make you think outside of you know this realm, this universe, yes and no. What I mean is just the basic four seasons in summer and fall, winter, and spring. Certain animals hibernate, right, and prepare for different seasons. We as humans do the same. On a mental level it may look different. So in the summertime, as we are as we prepare for summer, you know, it it you know, because sometimes it you know it may be hotter in the in the spring rather than just the summer, or hotter in the fall. When the sun grows bright, it's all about recharge, recharging your batteries, preparing for the fall, or is the end of fall, winter, so that you can be able to stabilize your mind through the cold months, the lonely months, the months where you may desperately want to reach out to somebody that hurt you, that wasn't there for you, and want to give them another chance, or maybe you've already gave them a second chance, but you want to give them many more chances. The summer, the hot seasons, or whenever the sun is out, typically around the summer, is a time for you to prepare your mind. Really tap into placing those boundaries with yourself and with others, really working on breaking those cycles and stepping back and knowing who you are, remembering who you are at the end of the day. Nothing is more important than the time that you were given to work on yourself, taking that responsibility for the energy that you bring and that you keep and that you hold on to, and that knowing that is not meant to be given to anyone else. So recharge your batteries, get ready for what's to come. Why? It's because there's people out there that will take from you all the time and leave you with depleted batteries and feeling fatigue. And when it comes to doing any work or thinking about any work, you just cannot because you have done so much for others that you can't even pour into yourself in that moment. And when you feel depressed, I want you to take a deep breath and remember who you are. That you were different, you are not the same as anybody else. And let's face it, no one is the same, right? We're all different in so many different ways, but there's some people that are very special, unique, very different. And even if you don't feel it fully, maybe you feel it slightly, and that's okay. As long as you know and you feel the energy that is given to you, you feel the light, you bring a spark to every single person you meet, every single area that you step into. Step outside and get some sun if you can. Not saying that everybody's able to do so. Okay, but at least see the sun if you can. If you can't, that's okay too. Maybe you're able to feel more than you're able to see, and maybe you're able to see more than you're able to feel. Recharge your batteries and get ready. Letting go of the anxiety that you hold on to. And maybe the anxiety comes from other people's inability to be able to control or manage their own emotions, but depend on you emotionally to support them, carry and share their weight of their concerns and their worries about life because they want you to help them all the time and neglect yourself. That time is over. This is the time that ye you not we you invest in yourself, give back to yourself, really examine the capa capacities, and your capability, and what you give your energy to. And if you haven't sat down and really looked at where your energy goes throughout the day, and if you're giving more energy to others than yourself, then it's time to sit and reflect on what do you want this outcome to be? If you've taken a step back from others to really work on yourself, or you cut others off to work on yourself and you're not doing the work, then why take a step back? Why put yourself in situations where you may further increase any kind of mental and emotional or physical health symptoms? That's a question for you, and when I say that, what I mean is some people cut other people's off other people off or a step back, and they sit in sorrow and sadness rather than really stepping outside the entire situation and looking at all of the factors at play, not just your part, but theirs too. There's other people that make excuses for the other person's actions to protect them because they really want to see the good in people, and that's fine. But if that person really caused a lot of emotional mental damage, step back into reality and acknowledge that. So as we close out, because this is a mini episode, just to prepare you for this next episode, this is what they're telling me. The next episode is going to is I get the messages as they come, and this message that I'm providing to you today, um, at this moment, came through today. But it's supposed to prepare you for the next phase of the breakthrough, whatever that's gonna look like. The messages will come to me accordingly, but you know, know that you are not alone, you are not alone, and that happiness is in front of you. You just gotta make it, and on top of everything, if you are coming out of this chrysalis to be whatever you aim to be, whether it's a butterfly, whether it's a moth, I mean some people like moths, there's nothing wrong with that, and some moths are really pretty, actually. But if you aim to come out, and let's say you do aim to be a butterfly or a dragonfly, dragonflies are very majestic as well. Know that when you come out on the other side, you are what you are, you are what you are based on the work that you have put in to recreate yourself, to break the cycles that no longer fit or suit you. So all of the the weight that you've been holding, the dead weight that you've been holding, all of everybody's weight that you've been carrying, leave it and know that you are moving on, you have moved on. Because at this point, how can you be able to talk butterfly language with caterpillar people? What I mean by that is that you allowed yourself to grow, you gave yourself the space to grow. And while people are not allowing themselves to grow and choose to remain caterpillars, they see you, what do they do? They grab onto your wings and they pull you down, taking your energy, taking your time, holding you back from what you could be in life, and the people that you could meet that are also flying and have wings because they allowed themselves to grow. But how do would you how do you or how would you ever meet those people that you were meant to be around? That you were meant to really thrive with if you continue to keep yourself around people who have no wings and are still in a state of mind where they have not gone through their metamorphosis phase, they have not taken the time to really reflect on themselves, and I'm not talking about the people that say, I'm gonna work on my self-care, I've been working on myself, but still show behaviors that don't reflect it at all. They don't, it doesn't reflect, their actions don't reflect what you know the words that are coming out of their mouths, not those people. The people that are more observant, the people that are willing to take their time, the people that are willing to have a conversation with you, not be dismissive, not shut you down when you try to speak with them or try to share something with them regarding, hey, I just want to tell you how I feel about this thing that you did the other day, and they go, I can't, I don't, I know you're not bringing this up right now. I don't want to talk to you about this right now. They shut you down, they're passive, they just want to avoid it 100%. Not those people. Or maybe they try to listen to you, but they put the spotlight back on them, right? And the negative spotlight back on you, while they hold the positive, and then you find yourself supporting them emotionally, physically, consoling them when you're the one that needed to be supported emotionally, mentally, physically. So then things become confusing. So guess what? Now, once again, we're caterpillars when we aim to be something different, something with wings, because we were working on our growth, and because they brought us back, now we're back to where they are, to stage one, to level one. So, with that being said, please protect your peace, and as we move into this next phase, if you're still in that chrysalis and you're still working on yourself, and you're almost ready for that break breakthrough, and breaking out of that chrysalis little by little, I want you to imagine what that will look like. If you were in a chrys in a chrysalis and you were forming your new self, your new image away from the cycles, creating new cycles for yourself that work better for you. What would that look like? What would that feel like? Just food for thought. And like always, I always wish everybody that I interact with the best. Many blessings to you all. Peace, light, and love.
