Episode Summary: Introduction to The Freedom Transmissions (Pages 1-20)
Let me ask you a question: If I told you there’s a pathway that could help you move into greater peace, balance, simplicity, freedom, forgiveness, authenticity, and wholeness, what would you say?
You’d probably say, “I’m in!” or at least, “Tell me more.”
So many of us long for ways to cultivate more of these feelings in our lives. However, this isn’t about a quick tip or solution—it requires discipline and devotion. It calls for fearless faith, non-resistance, and love. It invites us to have a curious mind and an open heart.
This pathway helps us remember that we are connected to something greater than ourselves, whether we call that the Divine, Spirit, Infinite Intelligence, God, or something else. It reminds us that we are not alone, that we are not separate from the Divine—it is within us.
This pathway is called The Freedom Transmissions.
Welcome to my new series on Hold the Light, where I will be moving through The Freedom Transmissions chapter by chapter. If you’re here, whether out of curiosity or because you feel pulled toward this work, you are likely on your own path of spiritual growth, transformation, and the evolution of consciousness.
So, welcome. You are meant to be here. This is the Introduction.
What Is The Freedom Transmissions?
Think of The Freedom Transmissions as a pathway to peace.
The book is divided into two parts:
Part One: The Sacred Heart Transmissions
Part Two: The Freedom Transmissions, which consists of nine separate transmissions under this broader teaching.
These transmissions are offerings, teachings, and wisdom from Yeshua, as channeled by Carissa Schumacher. Yes, that Yeshua. Some refer to Yeshua as Jesus—but this is not Jesus the man. Think of Yeshua as Christ Consciousness.
So, who is Carissa? She is a forensic psychic medium, spiritual guide, and full-body channel for Yeshua. In 2019, she began receiving transmissions that became this book.
If you’d like to hear more about the creation of this book, listen to my conversations with Carissa in Episodes 33 and 34. I also share crib notes to these episodes on my Substack, Hold the Light with Laurie Gunning Grossman. Links are in the show notes.
Why This Series?
I first read The Freedom Transmissions in December 2021, shortly after its publication. I didn’t know much about it, but I was drawn to it. As I read, the words Hold the Light jumped out at me, and I knew I would one day create something around those words.
As I continued reading, I noticed an internal shift—a deeper peace, a stronger connection to my values, my authenticity, and a deeper awareness of something greater than myself.
In March 2023, I attended my first Sacred Spirit Illumination Journey with Carissa in Sedona, Arizona. It became clear that I was meant to create this podcast, Hold the Light, and later, this series on The Freedom Transmissions. Even now, I am still learning, still discovering, and still deepening my understanding of this work.
Because so many others are curious about The Freedom Transmissions, I thought: Let’s go through this together.
How to Approach This Book
Before we begin, here are some important things to keep in mind:
This book moves fast. Stick with it. We won’t cover everything in one reading, and that’s okay.
The Freedom Transmissions is not linear—it’s more like a meditation. There are words, and then there is the energy beneath the words.
I first read the book linearly, front to back, but now I revisit chapters based on what I need at the moment. You can read it however you wish.
If the name Yeshua doesn’t sit right with you, replace it with a name that does—Spirit, Infinite Intelligence, Love, Dear One, Grace—whatever resonates with you.
This is not a religious book. It is not about ideology or dogma. Yeshua is not here to shift your beliefs—He is here to shift your consciousness and illuminate new possibilities.
Read and listen. The audiobook offers resonance, vibrations, and activations through sound.
Do the exercises. The writing prompts, meditations, and prayers ground and integrate this wisdom into your being.
Keep an open mind. This book is here to meet you where you are.
What to Expect From This Journey
Through this book, you may experience:
Greater peace, balance, and joy
A deeper connection to your inner light
A release of anxiety, fear, and old patterns
Strengthening of faith, balance, and trust
The surfacing of emotions—both light and shadow—as energy shifts within you
An internal transformation that unfolds in its own time
As you move through this book, Yeshua will introduce new energies both to you and to the collective. This is not just a me experience; it is a we experience. Your light is needed.
Through these transmissions, Yeshua shows us how to step into our true selves—our most natural selves—rather than the illusion self shaped by fear and ego. This process requires curiosity, humility, acceptance, and surrender. If you are willing to embrace it, transformation will happen.
As Carissa says, The Freedom Transmissions is a peace offering.
Key Takeaway
This book is not about seeking perfection, but about moving toward authenticity and peace. It is an invitation to remember who you truly are—a light-holder in this world.
Reflection:
How can you approach this journey with curiosity and openness? What resistance do you feel, and what would it take to release it?
Next Steps: Read & Listen
📖 Read: Carissa’s introduction, especially pages 16-19, where she shares final suggestions before you begin. And Chapter 1: I AM Yeshua (Pages 23-33)
🎧 Listen: Yeshua Meditation at the top of Chapter 1 (I AM Yeshua) from 00:18 through 33:55 in the audiobook.
Closing Thought:
“…Yeshua provides us a Pathway to remember the Truth of what and who we really are: Love. Love in all of its different facets, faces, and emanations, shadow and Light. Regardless of beliefs, Yeshua shows us how to look beyond and within ourselves to rediscover the incredible Grace and Light we all hold. And the Miracles we are capable of through kindness, courage, compassion, and Love.”
Thanks for listening. Keep holding the light.
