"At a very young age (16) I left home while being showed the door. When I look back at it, I was and always have been searching. I was raised Catholic and knew it wasn’t my way. Both parents were addicted to pharmaceuticals and both were abusive. It is what it is and I chose this path for a reason, I have never been more sure of anything in my life for through all of the suffering I have gained great strength and love."
Cari-Lee Miller
MISSION POSSIBLE
Cari-lee may perhaps be one of the most passionate and driven women I've had the privilege of meeting. Not only is she the host of a show that tackles truth, rants, and topics that challenge us to find the answers to questions that are the core of our spiritual formation, she's also into the fabulous art of designing and making crystals, and a strong advocate of self-governance and devotion to the foundation of all tribes and nations -- the family.
She's a mom with a major mission, and she's out to change the world.
Tell me about your life and passions. How did your work on radio and the truth movement begin?
If I began by saying I have been awake all along I would be lying, but if I was to say I only awakened in the last 3 years, that would be a lie as well. I think it would be fair to say that it has been a process and that I have been drifting in and out of consciousness until about 2 years ago. I relate it to those first moments before you’re ready to wake in the morning, you know, before your juice or coffee? That groggy in and out stage of waking up... I think I lived there for long while.
I knew so much was backwards and upside down but never enough to really make a difference for myself. I shopped at Walmart and I ate McDonald’s, there I said it! I am daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend, companion and then some. I am inspiration while being inspired. I am relentlessly never going to give up. I am just me which is most humbly and gratefully a part of you.
At a very young age (16) I left home while being showed the door. When I look back at it, I was and always have been searching. I was raised Catholic and knew it wasn’t my way. Both parents were addicted to pharmaceuticals and both were abusive. It is what it is and I chose this path for a reason, I have never been more sure of anything in my life for through all of the suffering I have gained great strength and love.
I played with psychedelics, and lived as I felt I should, quitting high-school for a bar-tending job (that’s where I was introduced to Graham Hancock and his book Fingerprints of the Gods, best tip I ever received), later going to college, then dropping out and travelling alone to the other side of the world with my last year’s tuition are just some samples of the way I’ve lived. I never followed the rules, never did as I was told, unless I saw the logic in it, and never backed down from a challenge. The moment of my true awakening though-- that was something else.
Two years ago, after years of learning about energy work, elementals, the ways of the earth and my own personal power I became sick. I was bed-ridden for 5 days and in that time I went insane with research rather than cuddling up with a simple ‘good movie’ as I had so many times in the past. I don’t remember what I watched, what I read, where the sites were that I visited. I do however remember how it hit me and what effect it had. I can’t lie and say I handled it well because I didn’t. I collapsed, crying often and being so confused. I wanted to argue with myself that there was no way I had been living in this lie for so long. It couldn’t be, I was on the brink of knowing all of these truths since I was so very young. It wasn’t as if the information I had found was new to me...I was just finally able to see it without the rose-tinted glasses and without lying to myself or making excuses as to the conditions of things.
When I began in this whole movement or quest for truth I unwittingly got involved with a bit of a scam and along with several others and we exposed it for what it was. A few of us decided to begin to create our own webpage called Earth4ll.net for alternative news and interviews. My first interview with co-host Bruce Fenton was with the group Collective Evolution and I realized in that interview that I really enjoyed this vehicle of being the interviewer. Then sometime in March someone on Facebook asked me to come onto their internet radio show at www.freethinkradio.com to talk politics as the Canadian Elections were being held and I agreed. The next day I was invited to be a host and the rest is history. I now have my own show
Lifting the Veil with Cari-Lee where I have spoken about everything that I have been moved to speak about. It’s almost strange if you don’t understand how you create your own reality. Every show I did lead me to my next show for reason and with purpose. No one is a voice without reason and purpose if they respect what they are blessed with.
What's your biggest motivation for doing all this work?
When I began the show I noticed so many problems with little to know solutions, I wanted to help in that area. I wanted to be able to present positive solution. I am very passionate about the human race truly understanding who we are, why we are here and how we can attain our true nature and abilities. The only way I know to do this is to share what I am guided towards and go from there.
What advice will you be giving your children about the future, about life, survival, spirituality?
The advice I give to my children is to always look within for answers, to trust their instincts and to always ask questions if they have them. I want them to truly find happiness and to never think that money can buy anything more than an object, never an emotion. I stress to always think about another person’s reasoning behind their actions before they react and to know that love is and always will be the ultimate answer to any problem they have. To survive this world we must suffer but in our suffering we grow in ways we can only imagine until we experience it. I let them know we have choices in this life when confronted by obstacles or times of strain. We can either use these obstacles as a step to rise above or a continuous crutch to lean on. The most important is to walk beside people, not in front, or behind because we accomplish it all as a team whether as siblings, family, friends, community or the world as a whole. We’re in this together.
What's in the pipeline?
My next step, I am now working on connecting everyone to the reality of personal sovereignty and self-governance. My goal is to achieve this myself along with my husband and family and to take it a step farther. Our goal is to have land where we would have a retreat and/or community to share with who ever will be of like minds and wants to make a difference that will truly set an example. One step at a time though and for now, I’m happy just being me, and loving and living my life.
Your ONE MESSAGE to the world.
My message to the world is kind of the same as the one for my children. Love each other, trust each other and yourselves. Listen to that voice within and please TALK TO YOURSELVES!!! I have figured out some amazing things by voicing them to myself and then doubting over the validity or truth in my thoughts. I’ve never steered myself wrong until I have ignored the voice of my higher self.
