It's been ten days, and I'm writing this through tears
It's been such a journey that I don't even have the words. I can't believe pub day was only ten days ago.
Writing this book took everything I had. And I want to say something to you before I tell you about the celebration, because I think you need to hear it: you have something inside of you. To paraphrase Wayne Dyer, don't let your music die inside of you.
I'll be honest, this was harder than I expected, mostly because so much of life converged right when I signed my two-book deal with Hay House. I don't think that was a coincidence. I think it was the universe asking me how committed I was. During the writing of this book, my parents passed six weeks apart. There was the Palisades fire, and there were health struggles. And through all of it, one thing held: this book would not die inside of me. It was a fierce calling. A calling of love.
So I have to ask you: what is the calling of love in you? It could be something small. It could be something enormous. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going.
Because when we commit to something bigger than ourselves, the universe really does conspire to help us. I never would have imagined I could gather 250 people to an exquisite 150-year-old mansion in the heart of Los Angeles, with globally recognized poets and musicians, and tell the whole truth about your Angelic ancestry, to press, and to a room of friends and strangers who became friends instantly. To sell out of books. And that on pub day, Hay House would tell me the book was already going into reprint. That's all YOU. 💛
This portal has opened. The Angels are streaming in, and they are with you always.
Let me tell you about the night, so you receive all the energy and joy of it.
We celebrated the launch of Your Angelic Ancestry at a turn-of-the-century mansion, Peace Awareness Labyrinth & Gardens. We were standing room only, 250 of us. The room was filled with love, joy, and of course Angels, earthly and ethereal. 🕊️
The evening began with an organic dinner and a soulful interview with Alexandra Bellusci, a New York Post reporter, who sat down with Jaime King and me for her show A-List with Alexandra. Watch the interview →
And then, what a night. My soul sister, actress, director, and singer Jaime King, looking every bit the Earth Archangel she is, opened the evening.
The performances began with 2026 Grammy-nominated poet Marc Marcel, who set the whole room on fire with creativity. Five original songs written just for the evening followed, and every single act received a standing ovation.
We opened with the divine Evren Ozan, one of the world's most brilliant flutists, performing for the first time in fifteen years. My eyes welled up after his first few soaring notes. His beloved Elizabeth Naomi played haunting cello and sang in Celtic tones that left us all stunned, and they were joined by Joshua Hayes, whose soaring guitar riffs and beautiful vocals brought the house down.
Between the music, I shared readings and teachings from the book alongside a stunning slideshow.
Then the second band, Woahman, took the stage, Jaime King at the piano with Pammy Hilton, who has, if ever there were one, the voice of an angel. They gave us the most poignant, haunting song, and then Joshua joined them center stage for two more so catchy people were humming them at the end of the night. A music exec came up to me and said their third song is surely a hit. Thank goodness they're making an album together, it seems they were born to write and perform side by side. And the band was born out of this very night!
Jaime and I even performed a scene together, because the book is filled with true dialogue, word for word as it happened. Acting opposite an actress as gifted as Jaime was more than a little intimidating, but sometimes we have to stretch. 😊
We closed with a meditation to the Great Archangels, with Evren accompanying on his magical flute. The Angels and that flute left much of the room in tears.
We sold out of books, and I was so glad to support a wonderful local bookstore, Skylight Books. The signing went on for a joyful hour and a half.
A huge thank you to Peace Awareness Labyrinth & Gardens for hosting us in their exquisite spiritual oasis.
To everyone who was in that room, and to everyone who has supported this launch from wherever you are, you have my gratitude forever. I write this through tears. Thank you, with all my heart. This is so much bigger than me, my loves. This is all of us. This is you, who stood with me.
