Guest Bio: Temple Hayes
Temple-HayesRaised in South Carolina, Temple Hayes was born to question everything, including her sexual identity. She turned to a new understanding of Spirit to pull her from the car wrecks of alcohol addiction and through a hundred different fears.

Firm in her conviction that the Creator loves you as you are and wants to have a conversation, Temple offers practical tools and pithy realizations to jumpstart all who die a little bit every day and fast forward to impassioned and energized living. A practicing shaman, Temple is a catalyst for turning lingering sorrows into brighter tomorrows and restoring all parts of our soul.

Spiritual Leader at Unity Campus in St. Petersburg, Florida, Temple is an internationally recognized leader and serves on the Leadership Council of the Association of Global New Thought. She is featured each week on the popular radio show, The Intentional Spirit. She is the author of How to Speak Unity (DeVorss & Company) and The Right to Be You (Temple Hayes Ministries), and founder of Life Rights, a nonprofit dedicated to the right of all to live the life of their intention in freedom and peace.

The SOFI Project is a non-profit organization founded by Temple that rescues and rehabilitates dogs and cats globally and is headquartered in Tampa Bay, Florida.

Stop Dying & Start Living
Do people around you ever tell you you're not good enough?

Do you bury who you really are in fear of disapproval?

Are you constantly making excuses for not living your true potential?

According to special guest Temple Hayes, these are all markers of someone who is dying, on a day-to-day basis, and not living.

Temple had to overcome years of addictive behaviors before she realized this, but now having been sober for 28 years, she is helping others realize their full potential in life.

For Temple, it was never a struggle being sober. The struggle comes when you're not doing what you KNOW to do. You can be successful in your career and still not be happy, or in a relationship yet feel alone.

Being in alignment with who you really are still presents challenges, but at least you are not constantly bringing yourself down. 

In Temple's eyes, there's nothing more fearful than living your entire life without having tapped in to who you were really meant to be. Dying day after day kills your dreams, hopes, possibilities, and self-esteem.

And, by living in that negative space, you're reflecting unhappiness and impacting others around you.

So, it's time to stop the negative talk and give up some control. The next time you find yourself going down that rabbit hole, stop and say: "I am open, and I'm willing to put my whole self IN." Be immersed in anything possible. If you're open in your heart and your mind, the possibilities are endless. 

Tune in as Temple joins host Andrea Donsky to share what it means to "stop dying and start living," as well as the path she had to take to get to that realization.
