About this listen
Five years.
Was it even possible that it had already been five years since Royce Holloway spent those magical, transformative seven days in the magnificent gardens with the wise, exotic Indian mentor Maya in The Mystic’s Gift? Although he wasn’t sure how time could have gone by so quickly, he was sure of one thing: He was a new man after those days - in a mighty good way.
After that glorious week when Maya had shared six life-changing principles from an ancient, secret book of wisdom with Royce, not only was he able to finally recover his happiness after a devastating and unthinkable personal tragedy, but also his spiritual and personal powers had evolved to a level that surprised even him.
But now, Royce was ready for a new chapter - to push his skills and his life to a higher level and make an even greater impact on the world. In fact, he felt something was leading him to do that very thing, so much that when Royce’s journey took him to the spectacular, historical Jekyll Island Club Hotel on the Georgia coast, it didn’t surprise him one bit when he “coincidentally” met a mysterious, well-seasoned world traveler; a traveler whose life was destined to intersect with Royce Holloway’s - in an unforgettable way for them both.
Join Royce on this powerful, spellbinding trek full of mystics, miracles, and inspirational stories. You will find that your life will never be the same again.

Jack Valentine seemed to have it all. He made good money as an ad man and looked good doing it. He had a hot apartment, cool friends, even a slick car - at least until the hectic Monday morning a truck smashed into it, sending the critically injured Jack to the hospital. Everything happens for a reason, though, and Jack’s reason reveals itself in the silver-haired cancer patient who becomes his roommate one evening. The elderly man, Cal, shares his life story - one not dissimilar to Jack’s - of material wealth masking a gaping hole within.
