Wake Up to Your True Self

 

What if the biggest myth of self-improvement is that something about you is broken?

In this episode of Richer Soul, we reconnect with spiritual guide and author Don Joseph Goewey, who shares powerful insights from the timeless work of Anthony De Mello — a man whose teachings remain profoundly relevant in our chaotic modern world.

Don returns with an exciting update: a beautifully crafted awareness deck designed to distill De Mello’s wisdom into bite-sized, transformative prompts. This episode is a wake-up call — not to become someone else, but to awaken to the magnificence of who you already are.

 

Key Takeaways: 

  1. “You Are Not Broken” – De Mello’s radical message flips the script on self-help. There’s nothing wrong with you — only layers of illusion to peel away.
  2. Soundbites of Spirituality – Don shares how Anthony De Mello mastered impactful, tweet-sized wisdom decades before social media existed.
  3. Awareness Over Achievement – True transformation doesn’t come from fixing but from seeing — becoming conscious of your inner narratives and breaking free.
  4. Legacy of Light – Don discusses how the DeMello Spirituality Center is digitizing and revitalizing Anthony’s archives, bringing life-changing messages to a new generation.

 

Money Learnings:

While this episode is less focused on finance, it tackles one of the greatest blocks to wealth: internal misalignment. If you believe you’re broken, you’ll sabotage wealth, relationships, and joy. De Mello’s teachings can shift your mindset from scarcity to sufficiency — a necessary precursor to financial freedom.

 

About Don Joseph Goewey:

Don is the Executive Director of the Center for Spiritual Exchange, which manages Anthony De Mello’s archives. His work spans neuroscience, spiritual psychology, and leading psycho-spiritual approaches to trauma. Don has served in high-stress environments — from refugee camps to hospital wards — helping people reclaim inner peace. He’s the author of The End of Stress and continues to guide others in awakening through De Mello’s work.

 

Key Discussion Points:

  1. The origin and mission of the DeMello Spirituality Center.
  2. Anthony De Mello’s core message: awakening, not fixing.
  3. Why De Mello’s book Awareness remains a bestseller decades later.
  4. How the new Awareness Deck distills spiritual truths into daily prompts.
  5. The problem with most self-help: it reinforces the idea you’re broken.
  6. Using soundbites to elevate consciousness.
  7. The impact of post-COVID awareness shifts.
  8. Embracing spirituality as a practice of presence, not performance.

 

Conclusion: 

  • Pause the pursuit: Stop trying to fix yourself and start observing your internal stories.
  • Pick up the deck: Use the De Mello Awareness Deck for a daily dose of spiritual clarity.
  • Practice presence: Set aside 5 minutes a day to notice your thoughts without judgment.
  • Question your programming: Ask, “Who told me I’m not enough?” and gently let go.
