Show Notes
This morning, we turn up the heat—literally and spiritually.
We’re grooving to “Fire,” the blazing 1974 hit by the legendary Ohio Players, a band that helped define the funk era
That iconic opening—sirens blaring, drums dropping like thunder—it’s not just a sonic signature. It’s a spiritual alarm clock. One that shouts: Wake up. Change is coming. And if you let it, it’ll burn away what no longer serves you.

PL Sweets guides us into the metaphor behind the music: Fire is not always destructive. Sometimes it’s divine. Sometimes it doesn’t come to break you—it comes to refine you.
The Ohio Players weren’t just playing funk. They were embodying a message: You can’t get to freedom without heat. The pain, the loss, the hard decisions—that’s the fire. But it’s also the bridge to your next version.
So what are you holding onto that’s keeping you from rising? - Is it fear of failure - Old stories? - Bitterness masked as protection? This morning’s groove is your reminder that you’re allowed to shed old skin. You’re allowed to start again. And you’re allowed to let go—so something greater can grow.
Let the rhythm cleanse. Let the bassline baptize.
Let the fire transform you.
Let the fire transform you.
