⚠️ Spoiler alert: This episode discusses key moments from Book 1 of Phillip Aisling’s Waking Up in a Dream series.

Most of us dread nightmares. They leave us sweating, heart pounding, sometimes shaken all day. But what if nightmares aren’t punishments at all? What if they’re teachers — intense guides designed to shock us awake?

In this episode, we explore Phillip Aisling's early nightmares in Book 1 — the spiraling bus, the underwater monster, and Mrs. Bishop’s terrifying attack that bled into waking life. Each nightmare wasn’t random. They signaled danger, pushed Phillip toward lucidity, and trained him to face fear.

Along the way, we connect these lessons to our own lives — and even to the collective “nightmares” the world is facing right now. Nightmares, both personal and global, might be more than terrors. They might be invitations to awaken.
