FREEDOM – Sophomore Album Out Now!!!!

January 11th, 2021

It’s finally here!!!!

I never thought I’d be able to follow up IMAGINE + REALITY, especially not this soon. I’m excited to tell you that I have!! This album is different but it comes from the same place of love, light and freedom! I’m so excited I finally get to share this full album with you, I’ve been holding it for so long and to release it to you guys feels, ironically, freeing!! This second time around, the videos are longer, I’ve made them differently, and I played around with special effects which really bring the words to life! And just like IMAGINE + REALITY, I poured my heart, soul, intuition and every ounce of my being into the entirety of this album. FREEDOM doesn’t have a format, it’s just 11 videos that flow right into each other. This post might seem long and daunting but, I encourage you to at least just watch one! Trust me, it’ll be worth it. I hope these videos bring you as much joy, inspiration, love, light and freedom as they bring me. In the coming days, I’ll be doing a Q&A about this album and take you behind the scenes. The process of making FREEDOM was definitely different than IMAGINE + REALITY. But for now, you finally have the album! I encourage you to watch them in order, just watch one, or watch the videos that stand out to you personally – the Universe will always show you what you need to see. Dive in!! And comment with your thoughts and favorites, I’d so love to hear!!

1. Shine – 1:36

Funny thing about this video, Shine, I made it 3 days after IMAGINE + REALITY went out. I don’t know why, I just had this feeling that I should make a video. So, I did and it was the hardest video to make. Putting out 17 videos is no joke and I used so many slides, colors, backgrounds, words, sayings, topics, and fonts. When I sat down to make this video it was overwhelming and took me hours because I didn’t want any of the slides to have the same words and backgrounds as the videos in IMAGINE + REALITY. But, overall it came together really well and the overall message is listening to your heart and love, of course. Making videos normally is very relaxing and enjoyable to me and even though this one was harder, I’m so glad I pushed through and and stuck to it. It really came out so good and I love the slides about a smiling heart. It is the perfect way to start this album because you need to be in touch with the love in your heart to truly be free.

2. Unique – 1:33

I made Unique a week after I made Shine, again, I got that strange feeling in my gut that I should make a video. And that week, a few things happened which made me really grateful that after many lessons, I am fully myself no matter who or what comes my way. So this video came naturally. I learned from the trouble I had in making Shine, so this time I wrote the words first in my journal and then designed the video. I’ve done videos that way in the past so it wasn’t too weird, I actually enjoy doing it that way now. The theme of this video is obviously, to be yourself 100% percent and to celebrate your uniqueness. If we were all the same, we’d be robots. Our differences makes us strong and without those differences connection wouldn’t be as meaningful, conversations would lack depth and all our realities would be the same because perception shapes reality. I really love this video, sometimes we all need little reminder that being uniquely yourself is the truest form of strength.

3. Know In My Soul – 2:00

Know In My Soul is one of my favorite videos, I took some time after making Unique and really got clear on what I was doing. 🤪 I didn’t post Shine or Unique so, in my mind I was like, “Am I making another album?” The answer was obviously, “Yes.” I still hadn’t fully committed to that thought yet, I was just making videos. This video, I again, wrote in my journal and then designed. It has a pattern to it though, you’ll get a profound thought and then the reason why that thought is true. The pattern just repeats itself over and over again. I named this video, Know In My Soul, because every one of these slides I just know inside of me, I’ll know them forever. Not to say that I don’t know other slides from other videos in my soul, I do. But these slides, no matter how much I grow or change, will always be known to me.

4. In Sync – 1:49

In Sync was the first video I made for this album that came through me effortlessly, I was back in the zone. And I had fully committed to the thought that I was making an album. I love this video, the music is so perfect and I started to use special effects in here! I think the effects make it that much more entertaining and gives the words more life. I feel like this video represents how it feels to be in sync with the Universe, you. There are a few slides about feelings here because I feel like your emotions are the most direct way you can hear the Universe. Feelings are tricky because you need to face them to let them pass but you also don’t want to be trapped in them, it’s a balance like everything is in this life! But you always need to trust your feelings, always. I love this video, I knew as soon as I finished it, it would be my lead single. I think it brings everything together so nicely.

5. Passion – 1:42

Making Passion felt like old times. Even though I wrote it first and then designed it, it felt exactly like how I felt making all the videos for IMAGINE + REALITY. I got very good at the special effects here, so you’ll notice them a lot! This year is a year that I feel like not many dreams have got to come true, so I am so so so grateful that one of my dreams came true. I always dreamt of having a blog, a website so, to now have it feels kind of surreal. Through my blog, I’ve realized that my purpose for right now, is to help raise the vibrational frequency of this planet through love, light, words, and truth. So, this video came easily, maybe that’s why that video-making feeling came back to me here! I didn’t title this video purpose because passion is purpose. Sometimes the word purpose can feel daunting or I don’t know, like scary because you may not know your purpose yet and that is ok. We all have a passion, if you take the real reason of why you love your passion, then you’ll find your purpose. I love this video because the music is so funky and fun, it’s kind of different from the rest!

6. 20 Questions – 2:12

I was watching some of my older videos and I had this idea to do a riff off the game, 20 Questions and make a video about 20 spiritual questions. At this point, I’d made Passion earlier in the day and In Sync the day before so I was really really in the zone. I didn’t write this video down first, I made the video all at once. I had a clear vision for this video and I’m glad to say it came to reality exactly the way I wanted it to. I love how on the last slide, the question is, Are You Fearless And Free? It ties in my website so well because the image is my icon for the website. You know I had to build up the music for that slide too! 😁 The song though, it’s really good, I like how it goes slow, fast, slow, fast. Again, the effects really make the words pop. These questions have so much power and I think if you answer each of them honestly, it is a really good analysis of where you’re at. Of course, there is no right or wrong, wherever you are on your journey is meant to be. This is probably one of my favorite videos I’ve ever made.

7. Empower – 1:57

Empower is a video meant to empower and inspire you!! We are living in a world that is trying to lower you frequency, trying to bring fear into your being and trying to trying to make you small. This video is to remind you how much power you actually have, because sometimes even our own little mind’s will try to convince us otherwise. I wrote this video late at night and three lines down, I decided the whole video would be about all that we are each capable of. Could you imagine if we all always remembered all of our power and then harnessed it, came together and became united in fighting for true freedom? There are some really cool backgrounds in this video that really elevate this video. The song is so good, the title “Praying For Love” seems so applicable to this video.

8. Hello Future – 1:43

This video’s theme is ascension and truth. I wrote this video in my journal right after I wrote Empower. I think the future is very unknown but, what I do know is that if we start imagining the future we want, it will be reality. Ascension has so many different views and opinions and I didn’t want this video to just be my my beliefs on what ascension could be, because that would just be creating more division and uncertainty. This video is to assure you ascension is coming and soon we will rise, but for now, you’ve got to shine, raise your frequency, follow your heart and trust yourself. I think sometimes when we think of trust, we think of trust in others and forget how important it is to fully trust ourselves. Again, the song title “If I Change” is very applicable to this video because if you change, you’ll meet ascension. Change should be your really good friend by now, and if it isn’t that’s ok, we could all use a friend and let me tell you, change is a good one. 😁

9. Trust – 1:53

Trust flows so nicely from Hello Future. There’s a slide in Hello Future, “Trust You Through and Through” and I knew when I wrote that slide that I could jump off of it and make a whole video about it. Trust is a tough one, the circle of people I fully trust is very tight and after all the lessons I’ve learned with trust, I wouldn’t want it any other way. I remember very clearly, there was a day I was writing an article about trusting the Universe and that night I said out loud, “I trust you.” It felt so freeing and like a weight off my shoulders. In a way, it kind of changed my life. In any situation I’m in now, I always sit back and remember there is a reason for it and that I trust the Universe no matter what. The purpose of this video is to encourage you to trust yourself because one, you deserve it and two, you are the Universe.

10. Being – 1:53

I actually wrote Being before I wrote trust, I was thinking of writing a post about being. For some reason being was on my heart a lot so, I decided to make a video about it. I think when we are so comfortable with who we are and when we know every piece of our heart, soul and mind being comes naturally. There’s a certain feeling when it comes to being, the only way I can describe it is like divine peace. You just sit in this knowing that you love who you are and no one or nothing will change that. I remember in writing this video how excited I got when I realized the word BE was in believe. I don’t know why I hadn’t seen it before, but it became so clear to me. You can’t believe in yourself if you aren’t being yourself. I think this video is simple but also complex; a paradox. I think it is powerful to know that we have so much power that if we just change ourselves, the situation outside of you that you want to change will change, because our perception shapes our vision.

11. Alive – 1:58

When I was deciding on the name for this album it was between, Alive or Freedom. Obviously, I went with FREEDOM, but I knew that I would definitely make a video about being truly alive, because when you are really alive, you are free. Alive is the perfect ending to this album, I think it encompasses all the videos so well. There really is a difference in living vs. really living with each day with gratitude, love, light and freedom. My hope with this video is to inspire you to change your perception, to ignite that fire inside of you and to really Live! After I made this video, FREEDOM felt so complete. I wrote Trust, Being and Alive in one night and the next day I designed all of them. I was sad to be done with this album but I was also so ready to see the final project and it really does feel so complete, alive and free. FREEDOM, thank your for being my album #2. You really have inspired me and you’ll have a special place in my heart forever! I’m excited to see the impact you make in this world!!

Thank you so much for watching!!! Comment with your thoughts, favorites or any questions you might have for my Q&A about the album. I would so love to hear!! The Q&A will be released, January 13th. I can’t believe I have two albums now and I’m so glad you guys finally have it!! I hope this album inspires you to be truly Free!! Be fearless and free -Ace
don’t let me down

January 10th, 2021

The future is a mystery
I hope it’s not history
Somedays I look forward to you
Other days I want to tell you, shoo
But you always stay there
I don’t know if you care
Or if you’re always fair
My feelings I wear
You and me are bound
I’ll always be seeing you around
You won’t make me drown
Definitely not asking for a crown
Just don’t let me down
Ace

Micro-poems are new to me, but I wanted to give it a shot! When words come, they come in heaps, so containing it into a few short lines is tricky. But, I love this piece. It describes my relationship with the future so well. I hope this helps you on your journey! Be fearless and free -Ace
The Answer

January 9th, 2021

Life is such a funny ride, the Universe is a one of kind creature. I wish I could tell you I’ve figured it out, but each day I learn something new and realize the journey is the joy. I know my soul has lived many lives, I feel it in my gut. But, the Universe is still such a vast galaxy that I’m just starting to navigate. There’s somedays where I know manifestation is a real thing, other days I realize wanting something so bad or thinking about it too much isn’t the answer, the moment I let go the Universe gives it to me. On my tough days, the journey is the nightmare. I run to the edges of mind looking for an answer, a clue, as to what I’m really doing. Then there’s the days where I smile ear to ear, thanking myself for choosing this crazy journey.

But no matter what day I’m having, I always trust. I’ve learned that to worry and to choose anxiety only creates more of it. Overthinking is a curse that comes to haunt me at times, it tricks me into believing that thinking will give me an answer. What gives me an answer is feeling and trusting, I ultimately know why I’m here because I chose it. That voice I listen to is the real me, the powerful and knowing one that travels to my heart, my mind and my intuition but truly has a home in my soul. That voice knows the answer, it shows me the way and gives me a glimpse of my compass in my dreams. Somedays, I beg that voice to just show me it all, because it knows the journey all the way from the beginning and all the way to the end. But on days like today, I say thank you, because I realize what I’m truly doing.

Through the journey, I find little answers creating the big answer. The answer to every question, every wonder, is right here in me. I keep dreaming, writing, waking up, searching, diving, laughing, loving, trusting, listening, acting, choosing, believing, smiling, imagining, feeling and living because through all of it, I get the answer. I think I’m trapped in this reality my eyes are supposed to see, but the reality I choose to live in, is in my mind. I know, on the toughest days my mind resembles a cage, but most days it’s my escape. There I grow, I see and I hear, because this outside world is not meant for me. In my mind, I put together the voices of my heart, soul and intuition and those voices create the answer.

The Answer is the Journey

back to you

January 7th, 2021

Oh connection
So many days I craved you
Felt you near but so far too
Look at us now
Holy cow!
You’ve engulfed my days
In so many ways
Thank you isn’t enough
Been through some stuff
Never thought I’d feel so close to you
On those days I felt so blue
I sent my wishes and they flew
You got my message
And delivered a presage
First came him
Super unexpected
But something connected
Here we are still
Lots of moments have been a thrill
I think right now we’re missing you
But it’ll be back
We’re on the right track
Then came her
Started slow
Then came talks for days in a row
Fun for a certain time
Just recently I said goodbye
I’m not mad at you
I actually want to say thank you
For keeping my circle real
And the truth near
Next you brought me this community
Providing me with so much unity
I feel so blessed
I would’ve never guessed
How many beautiful souls
Came knocking on my door
I opened it and asked for more
So many amazing conversations
Turning into lots of real relations
Through it came her
A definite spark
The Universe aligned us
Feel like we can talk about anything
Even though many miles keep us apart
Many smiles come to my heart
Then came him
Perfect timing
Starting to hit our stride
Enjoying this fun ride
I think this is just the beginning
And there’s much ahead
It’s just what the Universe said
Through it all
Has been my rock, my family
Been with me since I was born
And will be with me till the end of time
It’s harder to make these words rhyme
It just means my heart is so alive
My family, I thank you
I know it’s not nearly enough
I could write endless poems about each of you
That is definitely true
I always love you, my forever glue
To Ace, it’s all inside
Love yourself, and they come
Felt like a while to be able to say
I love you
But now that you’re there
It’s all about continuing to care
Whenever there is a tare
Come back to honesty, communication and love
Connection is always floating above
This poem is too long
But the words are flowing like a song
Connection, I see, hear and thank you
Making my life complete
And my vibe most often upbeat
Even in the tough phases
My soul raises
I will always find my way through
Back to you
Ace
My Dive

January 6th, 2021

A journal entry felt right for today! Have the freedom and bravery to dive into your waves of emotion, only through the dive can you find the shore again. Be fearless and free -Ace
we all write stories

January 4th, 2021

My story is writing itself
The words being my fire’s soul
I can never erase
Perfectionism I don’t chase
Because what makes the story gold
Are the ups and downs in my world
Loving the character comes easy
When you see the growth
Not all the happy moments because then it’s just cheesy
The outside I can’t control
But I can live from my soul
Life’s path is what I make it
I will keep my true grit
Improve my wit
And always keep my fire lit
Ace
i hear you

January 3rd, 2021

Trigger after trigger
Makes my ears ring
Taking a deep breath
I stay grounded
My heart well rounded
Understanding different opinions
But rooted to my own
Sitting in my energy zone
Feeling my mind and my soul alone
Words come and go
Feelings bring me joy and woe
Heart continues to pound
But I’m always listening
To what he says
Or she says
But mainly to what I say
It’s all that matters
Triggers can try their best
But I will conquer and let them rest
All will work out
I shall not pout
Right now, it might hurt
But I’ll get up
Cause that’s all I can do
Always knew
There’d be these days
Where I’d feel tossed around in many ways
But that spirit inside is alive
It never dies
Pain doesn’t scare me
One + One, Two
Pain + Love, I grew
The point of the Universe’s test
Is to not fall into stress
Remember I’m blessed
This is all part of the quest
I’m not mad at him
Or her
It will all be fine
I’m just listening to the voice that’s mine
This much is true
Because I hear you
Ace

Saying Goodbye To 2020

December 31st, 2020

Dear 2020:

On this last day with you, all the memories I’ve made this year come crashing in, the tremendous amount I’ve grown this year makes me smile and the dreams that have come true sends a rush through my being. I honestly can’t believe this is it with you, this year has seemed long at times and very fast at other times. To some, you may have been an annoying and tough year but, to me you have been an eye opening and truth-filled year that I will forever be grateful for.

You’ve changed my life in so many ways. To start, you woke me up out of the dream of lies this world is full of. You gave the truth a new meaning this year and with that truth came true freedom. In the beginning, I’ll admit, it wasn’t easy. I felt like my whole world had been rocked and my dreams too, but then came the gratitude, freedom and drive to make a difference. The truth has truly become my best friend and I wouldn’t want it any other away, I am so grateful to be really alive. I will never sleep again, being alive gives me purpose and makes my fire inside light up the world. So, thank you for all the truth you’ve brought to me, that’s just one way you changed my life and me.

Another way you’ve changed my life and I, is by making my dream of having a website/blog come true. There was no better time than with you to make my dream a reality and I am so so grateful to you. This website has brought me so much comfort, connection and freedom. The people I’ve gotten to connect with through my blog has been truly amazing, I never thought I’d get to have the pleasure of connecting with such beautiful souls from across the world. Writing is my best friend, I’ve spent so so many hours typing/creating away. My debut album, my story, my future sophomore album and all the posts in between will be a part of my heart and soul forever, thank you for that. I can’t believe it has only been four months of blogging, I feel like this website has been inside of me forever. I’ve grown so much mentally and emotionally and I think that credit goes to you, for both bringing this website and the truth into my life.

Yet another way you’ve change my life and I, is by bringing a much needed balance to my life. Tennis and being an athlete is my passion, but so is writing and helping raise the frequency of this planet. Combining both, plus spending time in nature, being with my family, connecting with my friends and just the everyday things in life I got to enjoy more this year, really has brought me true balance. I know in my soul that all the writing and creating really has helped the athlete side of me grow and get better and the athlete side of me has helped my words have so much depth and meaning to them. Without the athlete, I wouldn’t be fearless and free and without the writer, I wouldn’t be as joyous or alive. I truly thank you for the harmony you’ve created in my life through the balance of both sides of me, I truly feel that in each day I thrive.

I have to be honest and say that this year with you hasn’t been all sunny and bright, there have been some rough and dark days. But I know in my gut that without those tough days, the bright days wouldn’t mean as much and I definitely wouldn’t have grown. It is in the dark I have truly chosen to evolve and to come out stronger. Another way you have changed my life and I, is by showing me what it really means to love myself and to believe in myself. With that newfound love and belief in myself, I can truly see that those tough days shaped me into the unique light that I am. Those days taught me how to shine my light and how to be strong in the weirdest of times. I think vibration and energy also have a new meaning to me this year, thanks to you. I feel so much more in touch with my energy, much more control over my energy partly due to cutting out sugar from life completely and I definitely can read other’s energy much much better. I even got the experience of seeing other’s auras which was fascinating. I am authentically myself, no matter how much that person changes, I am my true self every single day. I am so hard on myself and giving myself credit isn’t the easiest thing in the world, but, I can say with full truth that I am really proud of the fearless and free soul I am.

2020, I hate to say goodbye, you really have brought me so much. I know you’ve been treated poorly at times but, I get your message and I see you. I know the truth is your purpose and I will always remember you for that. Thank you for the joy, love, truth, comfort, connection and growth you have brought me. Thank you for strengthening my relationships with my family and friends and thank you for showing me that dreams and thoughts do become reality; I’ve always believed that and I always will. 2020, the Universe, thank you. -Ace
2020’s reality

December 30th, 2020

When 2020 began
2019 ran
I thought I knew my year
With my dream so near
But then the truth hit me
And I could no longer just be
I had to dig
And dive for answers
Because I realized lies
Were all this world presented
I don’t resent it
I just needed an alarm clock
To wake me up
As my world changed
And my dreams too
I kept fighting for you
That soul inside
Whose drive cried
To take place in my reality
Then this blog was born
Never thought I’d be here
Feeling the Universe so near
Blessed beyond words
To have connected with you
And to have a made a dream
Reality
Changing my mentality
And practicing my dimensionality
2020 has shaped me into a better version
Giving the truth my total immersion
I thank you
For helping me awaken
For being the friend I needed
For making dreams come true
For letting me grow
And teaching me how to glow
Every single day in a row
Ace
