Jerimy Des grew up in Joliet, IL, with big dreams and a desire to make a meaningful impact. While attending night school during his Active Duty service, he carefully planned to retire as a Military Officer. However, injuries changed his path, leaving him uncertain about the future. Despite holding a stable job, he felt a deep emptiness, which he believed wouldn't have eased even if he had become an officer. After being fired from his job and living out of his car, he faced a tough choice: risk homelessness and addiction or find a new purpose and start a fresh venture. In 2016, he moved to California, wrote a movie, and aimed to sell it. As he charted his new path, he faced intense internal and external struggles, leading him to realize that a greater force was at work-something only the Universe could reveal through his awareness and subconscious actions. His questions included: Why do humans often thrive on conflict? Why can't we break the hold that racism, hate, and other negative emotions have on us? And if he had been born into a different life-perhaps as a sheltered kid who later becomes an Ivy League lawyer or engineer-why would these same negative emotions be at play? His insightful answers came while writing his first book, "Universe Within You," which helped him understand the interplay of Light and Dark Energy.
