Hello, everyone! This is Tonya Dawn Recla, your Super Power Expert. You all are in for a very yummy treat. Our guest today is so delightful. She has this really loving energy, the grandmother’s energy that you want to curl up on her lap,  embrace and loving a little fire under there, she don’t fool you. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know her and her story which is fascinating.  I know you all are going to appreciate it. But among other things, we’re going to be talking today, about the walk of the spiritual woman and she absolutely embodies that piece. She’s a speaker, a spiritual  mentor, and author of many books which that in and of itself is fascinating about this kind of joy and unshakable aspect of love and abundance and just living your life. And without further ado, join me in welcoming McCartney Green to the show. Welcome, McCartney.
Hello, Thank you! I’m so grateful to be here.
Very cool. We’re so glad that you’re here with us. What are your Super Powers?
Unshakeable Joy
My superpower is to teach people how to be so aligned fiercely I help them to connect spiritually so that they can find their unshakable joy and to live completely.
I love that concept of unshakable joy and it is powerful. But when you add that word unshakable on top of a powerful concept. How did that come about?
I realized sometimes we depend on outside circumstances for our joy. Unshakable joy means, not joy because you just find the sweet new job, your boyfriend just proposed to you or you won the lottery but joy that doesn’t depend on any outside circumstances because true joy doesn’t. If you depended on outside circumstances for your jewelry then you’d be the winner whenever life flows your way. True joy is unshakeable and that’s what I want people to have. No matter what happens to them, no matter what trauma they face or have faced they can still live an absolute joy.
It’s so fascinating to me because my whole tick started off when the personal power went with my book about 10 years ago. The Ultimate Guide to personal power and safety. And it evolved since then mastering your personal power and managing your individual residence then moving into autonomy. I love the fact that the parallels are so obvious because one of the concepts that I’ve played with a few years back was this idea of not allowing anything outside of myself to dictate anything about myself, and making sure it is very clear on who was governing the situation and I love that you did the same thing. But from the perspective of joy and that wasn’t my emphasis mine was I was a soldier to gather intelligence so was around power and that was really the only construct I was comfortable working with until I reached my higher degree of autonomy and was able to go away. I think this is about love, joy, and all these things but I couldn’t make that leap from where I was.
I think what you’ve been through and who you are and what you’ve done is amazing and I want to write my next book about you.
I love it. Absolutely, let’s do that beautiful thing here.
Powerful Woman. What great novel that would.
I’m looking at you. As powerful as well as from the perspective of real courage to step into the state. We’ll get into your story, step in the spaces you’ve stepped into that level, check the time you had a number of conversations with God around that.
Exactly! I didn’t really sort of shunned away from it because I thought people are going to think I’m out of my mind or were that crazy, crazy lady.
Absolutely, and that’s what keeps most people from following their guidance, we talked a little bit before the show, about the difference between hearing the whispers versus getting that knocked upside the head with a two by four. But it’s we have too many stories in our collective consciousness of people being burned at the stake and being drowned and crucified and all the other stuff we’re doing a lot of the work that you and I do in the world. I think I will I would imagine I can only assume that you had a kind of face a lot of that yourself in the sense of I’ve had my crucifixion kind of moments. Do I really want to do that like not sacked religiously like oh my gosh I think I’m Jesus but we just have too many of those stories that it’s not safe it’s very scary to be the embodiment of divine wisdom here? How did you manage that?
I’m not sure that I can say that idea and I had seven when I first started down this path. I have seven young children who are all grown now but I still even now you I get things from people about her being out there and that kind of thing ridicule and I don’t mind that at all because the reason I’m able to handle it is because when I learned these keys and I have that super-spiritual alignment they lift you up to a higher perspective and you can look at the people who are ridiculing you. And I’m not trying to degrade them I just mean I see them kind of like children who just don’t know yet. It’s like you wouldn’t get angry or mad at the baby who doesn’t quite know how to walk yet. These are the children. And eventually, they’ll learn. I think from the perspective I love the synchronicity.
Spiritual Woman
One of the concepts that I’ve been talking to people about is that they don’t know if this is the same for you but it’s like people come to me in waves clients. The common theme right now of course because I just recently last year to come out of that space is the idea of going into your own depth in darkness and finding those pieces and explain to people like we have all these pieces and parts that are in kind of these arrested development States. And I love your analogy because that’s what I tell people is like would you like if you had a child who didn’t know how to ride a bike would you chastise them for not knowing how to ride a bike because you already learned how to ride a bike or would you take the time to teach them and people resist the kind of teaching their undeveloped or arrested development pieces and charge the elementary steps that they feel like they already know. And it’s like of course and like you the highest aspect of who you in all things. But we have aspects of us that don’t and if you imagine like we have these pieces of us that we kind of socked away during trunked traumatic experiences or even just life experiences that we equate it to being traumatic which can be someone looking at you funny as a kid and it gets socked away and it gets solidity kind of builds over and it just kind of gets pushed further and further back into these old closets that we have. And when you go and get those pieces like they know how to exist in this space that you existed in they weren’t part of that journey. And bringing them up to speed it feels elementary but it’s really approaching it from like benevolence, love, and joy. It’s not burdensome it’s guiding aspects of you into that wholeness and I knew that a lot in terms of how God or Jesus to bring me the children or what it’s kind of that concept and can you do that within yourself. It’s easy to look at the outside world think you’re going to fix it but when we talk about self-worth that is why I love kind of the focus of the show is the walk of the spiritual woman. I know what that takes. I know the journeys you’ve been through in the depths of yourself that you had a look at just to step into that. And I applaud you and honor you for that.
Self-worth can be harder because the one thing that we have our time with and I don’t even think about the traumas and things I’m talking about just forgiving ourselves for mistakes we’ve made that’s been probably one of the hardest things for me just being kind to myself and forgiving myself and not treating myself like I have been treated by others. Treating myself well and love myself because choose to come here and do this work and I can’t-do it and have everyone else be full of joy and happy if I have anything about me that I don’t feel loving about. I have, I do it.
I love that, it’s such a beautiful testament. Well, we’ve been talking with McCartney Green about the walk of the spiritual woman. Stay with us. We’re going to take a short break. When we come back we’re going to talk about some ways that you too can step into that space whether you’re a woman or man, how you identify in this lifetime, what it takes to kind of step into that. And I’m going to start with McCartney’s fascinating story so stay tuned you’re not going to want to miss this.
Awesome, we’re back we are talking with McCartney Green on the Super Power podcast about the walk of the spiritual woman. McCartney, please share the story with our listeners. How all of this came about. how it started for you I love your story. I’m so fascinated by it.
Thank you, for the opportunity to tell him. I don’t tell the story because I don’t want anybody to feel sorry for me. But, I tell people so that they know where I came from and how far I can come. I was born into poverty, alcoholism, neglect, and abuse and then I grew up and got married and things didn’t get any better because that’s all I knew. So that’s all I really brought to the table. When I got married, my husband and I Â had seven children and they were my joy. I’m not complaining about my children at all but at one point in my marriage in 1994, my husband had lost his job and I was working three part-time jobs just trying to keep a roof over our heads. Forget anything extra. The financial burden was horrible and then I knew that my marriage was crumbling and coming to an end. I felt alone, unloved and confused about life and then I was sexually assaulted in a Wendy’s parking lot and I was filled with guilt and shame over that because I was an athlete. And I thought of anyone they were trying to mess with me I will kick their butts. But, it didn’t go down like that. I froze in fear and I felt so filled with guilt and shame and all this turmoil of emotions somehow. I talked myself into the thought that my children would be better off than me. And I tried to end my own life and within a few weeks of that time I woke up one morning and there was a man standing at the foot of my bed. Now I was not afraid at all. In fact, I was very calm. I had no fear and I had a knowing which was a miracle in itself because I was not very religious. I had a knowing though that this was some sort of heavenly messenger and how I like to some people, of course, the light that was all around him was a dead giveaway that. He had a light all around him and he counseled and advised me and one of the last things he said to me before the light gathered in around him and sort of just disappear. One of the last thing he said to me was to write and I reverently said write because I’ve never been in my life. I said Write What? And he said Write love. Write your story and begin reading. And I did. I did two things I did begin to write and I based the character on his character in a fiction novel on him. But I also did another thing and I pushed this amazing miraculous happening into the corner of my brain somewhere to ponder another day. I didn’t tell anyone except my own family. I was almost afraid. I lived in fear that I should tell anyone either. I just pushed it aside as if it was inconsequential and I didn’t hear from him again for almost 22 years. And he came back to me one day. It was July 31st, 2015 and I were in the middle of a meditation prayer type thing where I was complaining to the universe why would some heavenly messenger appear to me and tell me to write. When only a few thousand people would ever read my books and nothing is ever going to come of them I don’t know anything about marketing and why should I even do this. And suddenly he came back to me. And he told me he would stay with me from here on out that I elected to come to this world with a mission and that mission was to help people to connect and we were going to announce to the world that He existed and that I have seen him and that mostly the main thing was to let everybody know in this world that we are not alone. Not one of us is alone. And it’s such a beautiful thing to know that it almost helps you connect immediately to know they really are.
They are so beautiful and I love the synchronicities we were talking earlier and my book that I wrote about decade ago or so it was about my experiences being raped at 16 but then also as an agent. And I had a similar experience that you had not my response, but in the moment feeling like I was a government agent like I was armed and trained to kill people and all kinds of other stuff and like how in the world for all of you listening out there is so easy for us to go into that space and not see the moment for what it is and not see the everything that it entails. If any of you are really struggling with that I encourage you to take a step back and say well what could this be about or get some assistance from that perspective. I think it’s easy to wallow in that. But kudos to you. I find it fascinating that you did tell your family a lot of folks I talked to have had similar experiences. The family is the last people that they would tell, they felt like it’s safer to tell perfect strangers or people outside of their family.
I think it’s fascinating that we share that with what we were our family was very close. Even though I and my husband were divorced which we did, of course, we became best friends because we married very young who had seven children together. It just seemed like we were just best friends. And we were always very close and my family is on my mission with me which was disclosed to me that we come in with an agreement to be together and work on things together. It makes sense and I felt very comfortable telling them we’re very close
I love that. That’s so awesome. What advice do you have for people who have ever received visitations or are hearing voices? At all, I guess of our podcast attracts a lot of folks that operating in those fears. What can you offer them? After having gone through that experience and now being on the other side of it where you’ve really kind of stepped into that space.
You’re not crazy – Embrace it
Well, first of all, it’s not just in your head you’re not crazy and you’re not just acting a little weird or a little out there. Embrace it because that the signs and the things that we’ve given the visions the little whisperings in our heart, our head and in our mind. These are they’re trying to connect with us. At one point I was walking along doing a meditation and I was doing a walking meditation idea that when I walked my dogs and I said I was feeling kind of disconnected, one day and I said are you there because I don’t find you today. Well, you give me a sign or something. And then I said oh wait a minute didn’t I read something in the Bible somewhere but you’re not supposed to ask for a sign. And immediately he came to me and he said that is a fallacy. There are many other places in the Bible where it’s written to give a sign we give you signs everywhere. We want you to see them. We want you to acknowledge them. And if you will be led down the path you’re supposed to go and so that’s what I do I just let them lead me and little signs. I mean they can be anything. I just decided to become a public speaker. I had so many signs and one of them once did a story I like and one of them once I was looking at websites for public speakers and I came across a guy who said he was toastmaster and at the time I had no idea where Toastmaster was and I said I wonder what that is. I don’t have time to look around to check my email right now so I check my email and I had an e-mail from Mike Dooley touch notes from the universe. And he had a video in there and in that video, he talked about how he started in Toastmasters and I said that’s to Toastmasters. And then I had an appointment with the lady about changing my website and she was going to consult me on my website. On that day and I spoke with her and she just out of the blue told me that she got her start at Toastmasters. And then my sister works at a copy a print place in the very next day she comes home and she goes I ran into a lady who was getting something printed for a Toastmasters. And I told her that you had talked something about that and she gave me this material for you, so again that kind of knocked me upside the head. But I think I’m supposed to go to Toastmasters.
I love it. That’s perfect.
