Awakening & War
Reclaiming Our Power in a Time of Global Unrest
In this deeply honest and timely episode, Kate and Amanda respond to a growing sense of urgency in the collective: the escalation of global war. Speaking from their own countries—Japan and Mexico—they unpack the illusion of war, the emotional manipulation used to gain public consent, and the spiritual call to wake up, speak up, and opt out of cycles of violence.
From personal family experiences with war trauma to sobering reflections on nuclear devastation, they explore the hidden costs of militarism—from PTSD and addiction to societal destabilization. With compassion and clarity, they invite listeners to reclaim their voice, question the narratives we’re being fed, and consider what true peace and sovereignty really look like.
It’s an invitation to remember: no one is coming to save us. We must save ourselves.
And that begins by speaking truth, embodying compassion, and standing for peace.

Takeaways:
- War, politics, and spirituality are interconnected. This moment in history is a spiritual test—a chance to reclaim power and see through illusion.
- The narrative of war is manufactured to gain consent. Governments use fear, propaganda, and emotional manipulation (false flags, patriotism) to rally public support.
- Many soldiers are awakening to the truth. Voices like Sean Ryan’s show a shift: veterans are opting out of fighting wars they no longer believe in.
- The true costs of war ripple across generations. Trauma, PTSD, addiction, broken families, and societal destabilization are far-reaching consequences rarely acknowledged.
- The U.S. military-industrial complex profits from perpetual war. Conflicts are often waged for resources, power, and money—not peace or protection.
- Propaganda sedates the public and silences dissent. Through media control, consumerism, and busyness, people are kept too distracted or divided to resist.
- Choosing peace is an act of awakening. Opting out of violent narratives and refusing to participate in destruction is a courageous spiritual stance.
- Discernment is critical. Be aware of manipulation tactics—especially emotionally charged events used to justify future wars.
- Soldiers and civilians alike need support in saying “no.” Speaking out should be seen as honorable, not shameful. We must back those who opt out.
- Another way is possible—and it already exists. Japan and other countries model peaceful, safe societies rooted in collective care and integrity.
- No one is coming to save us—we must save ourselves. Change starts with reclaiming our voices, questioning authority, and standing up together.
