BONUS EPISODE! MB gives background on what has been happening in 2023 and now. Season 2 will come this year. This episodes explores the journey of MB's spiritual gifts and how it has expanded more recently. For people like her who are comfortable being humble about their gifts and works, it's time to come out of the shadows and bring normalcy to "celebrating" good work and good spiritually energy. This episode is not for the ego driven person, it's for the spirit led person who doesn't express their gifts openly because of the "taboo". Be your own cheerleader, humble people!!! Pop your shit!
