How Bad do You Want This?

Angélique Letizia once again encourages us to align with our dreams, our purpose, rather than letting others tell us what we are meant to be:


Why not you?
So what if they don’t believe in you?
Who cares if they say your dream is delusional?

The real question is: Will you believe in yourself when no one else does?

Here’s what happens when you begin to align with your dream:

You set out on a path that feels less like a gentle walk and more like walking through a gauntlet of projections, doubts, mirrors, tests disguised as detours, and polarity in its rawest form.

It will ask you:
How bad do you want this?
Can you hold the vision through the dark?
Will you keep going when all seems lost?

Because fully aligning with a dream means confronting the polarity paradox, where expansion requires you to face both resistance and revelation.

You’ll encounter Champions, those rare souls who see your vision before the evidence shows up. They cheer you on because they genuinely wish you the best. Treasure these people — they’re rare.

Then there’s the shadow side of the Champion; what I like to call the Phantoms, because their overzealous show of support is a false light projection. Their smiles mask jealousy, and their energy carries a quiet hope you’ll fail. And if you don’t fail? They’ll still linger close enough to ride your coattails.

Then come the Naysayers.

The Positive Naysayers mean well. They may sincerely love you, but they prioritize your safety more than your evolution. They’ll say things like:

“Don’t get your hopes up.”
“Are you sure that’s realistic?”
“Can you make money doing that?”

They’re not trying to hurt you; they’re just speaking from fear.
But love offered through fear is still fear, and fear will always hold you back.

Then there are the Negative Naysayers. They mock, minimize, and criticize.
Often behind your back. Sometimes, to your face in the form of passive-aggressive jabs.

These experiences are initiations, invitations to strengthen your discernment and align with a bold, unapologetic narrative.

Because before the dream expands, you must expand. You must face your own shadow and your own light.

You must look yourself in the eye and ask:

Am I fully ready to claim the life I was born to live?

The dream doesn’t just require faith; it demands perseverance, fortitude, energy, and conviction.

Because to reach the gold, you have to walk through contrasts on both sides of the polarity spectrum.

Meaning, you don’t just meet your purpose, you also meet everything that stands in its way.

So, if you’re waiting for a sign to pursue your dream, start a business, form a partnership, launch a new brand, or make a bold new move.

This is your sign. DO IT.

Because that dream burning in your heart wasn’t given to the naysayers —
It was given to you, the one who holds enough light to carry it through the dark.

Is the Hero’s Journey Dead?

Angelique Letizia shows us not only is the Hero’s Journey still very much alive, but it is embedded in the human story:


The hero’s journey isn’t dead. Stories are how we make sense of the world, how we pass down wisdom, and how we see ourselves reflected across time.

So when a producer recently told me that the hero’s journey was dead, I almost spit out my tea.

“How is that?” I asked, curious to see his response.

“It’s just been done. We’re looking for something new, fresh. Ya know, out with the old.”

You could almost hear my eyes roll. “Do you understand the significance of the hero’s journey and the role it plays in human consciousness?”

The widening of his eyes led me to believe the answer was no, and so I leaned in, unable to stop myself.

Every great story, whether ancient or modern, taps into this universal rhythm. The call to adventure, the trials, the descent into darkness, and the return with a boon (newfound wisdom)—mirrors our evolution, and that is why we resonate with them.

The hero’s journey, specifically, is embedded in the human psyche. It’s the path of awakening.

Why do we resonate with myths? Why do we follow legends? Fairytales? And why do we seek meaning in struggle?

Perhaps it’s because, in those stories, we see a reflection of our own. A roadmap of where we’ve been and where we might go. They are us, and we are them. Through their journeys, we live the adventure, learn the lessons, endure the agony of defeat, the pain of heartbreak, the joy of new love, and the thrill of victory—all through the power of imagination.

Every single human creation bears a part of our origin story, and that is the significance of the journey.

I was surprised to see that rather than argue, he smiled and shared that he had never thought of it that way, that he’d seen it more as a storytelling device rather than universal wisdom.

The hero’s journey lives. It breathes life into every story that moves us, every lesson passed down, and every trial we face and overcome. It’s not just the arc of storytelling—it’s the arc of humanity itself.

And only through sharing our journey with those on the path and those yet to walk it will our collective story echo through time as a testament to where we have been and where we might be destined to go.
