What happens when we move from "asking" to "listening"? In this session, I reflect on the evolution of my relationship with prayer—from rote repetition as a child to the realisation that prayer is a centring practice. It is the internal technology we use to get quiet enough to hear what our Source within is telling us.

I also discuss the "spooky" alignment of waking up to 38 downloads on my 51st birthday, just as a new path for the Sovren Creator Network™ appeared. This is a look at how we find our "quiet" in a world designed to keep us in fear, and how I am using AI as the support system I lacked years ago.

In this episode, we explore:

• Prayer as Listening: Moving from rote tradition to becoming centred and on purpose.
• Birthday Revelation: The 38 downloads and the "Dark Social" movement of my content.
• Legacy Building: Addressing the patterns we carry and how to "pivot" through meltdowns.
• Mental Sovereignty: Using Ho'oponopono as a tool for centring in the "Now."
• Our Sovren Creator Network and Guild: How the network is evolving to offer a dedicated space for creators.

Sovren Creator Network™ is an ecosystem and Guild for the modern creator wanting to build a sovereign life. I am committed to data sovereignty and am registered with the ICO for Data Protection to cover all data capture across all brands I manage—including Empowerment Diaries®, Sovren Spotlight™, and Sovren Studios™.

If a system wasn’t designed for your freedom, why seek its permission?

In this Empowerment Diaries session, I, Lita (Goddess of Growth), deconstruct structures we’re taught to trust—from corporate 'perks' to extraction-based social media. Having left a major platform where I owned and managed my very own Creator Network in 'Partnership' with the major platform, just this year, August 2025, I share 'backstage' truths of the creator economy. Building a personal brand on 'sand' is no longer an option for the Upcoming Generation or Silver Generation.

This is a call to stop giving your greatest resource—time—to engines that suppress natural gifts. It is time to anchor in a new blueprint.

Key Discussion Points:

• Corporate Enslavement: Why 'perks' mask lack of upward mobility.
• Generation Bridge: Why we must link upcoming innovation with silver wisdom.
• Social media Exit: First-hand experience of platform extraction vs creative freedom.
• Motherhood Paradox: Systems demanding children for pensions while failing to support mothers.
• Creators Guild: Moving from 'Silos' to collective sovereignty.
