  • Turning problems into spiritual assignments

    What if we turned the problems that continue to show up for us into spiritual assignments? Spiritual assignments help you look at problems as an opportunity to heal-it redefines them. When the same type of problem, person, or situation keeps appearing in your life, it's one of your spiritual assignments reminding you there's something that needs to be healed. In this episode, we go over Gabby Bernstein's 7 step process that helps you show up for your spiritual assignments, to heal and to care for yourself in a different way. Let us know what you think!

  • The Law of Least Effort- Doing Less and accomplishing more.

    In this episode, Jayla and Shaye dive into the Law of Least Effort detailed in Deepak Chopra's book the 7 Spiritual Laws of Success. This ancient Ayurvedic spiritual teaching is all about being motivated by love and moving at the speed of nature. It's about protecting your energy not draining it by forcing things into existence or resisting what is. We talk about ways to apply this to your life by 1.) Accepting the present moment (not resisting it because that drains your energy); 2.) Taking responsibility and acting with love on what you want (act with love and that builds energy and do not blaming anyone else because that drains your energy), and 3.) Being defenseless- (you don't need to defend your point of view because it's your point of view). Fighting against what others believe about you is an energy drain. If you're a control freak or feel frantic at times trying to make things happen because you're resisting what is, than this episode is for you.

  • The art of throwing something back with Kidney Transplant Recipient Meghan Cunningham

    In this episode we speak with Shaye's college friend and kidney transplant recipient/thriver Meghan Cunningham. We talk about her journey from finding out she was in kidney failure while pregnant with her second child to receiving a kidney due to a co-workers kindness to living life as a kidney recipient (pandemic and all). She helps us understand the importance of organ donation (both living and diseased), and breaks down some common misconceptions that create a lot of fear. And she shines a light on immunocompromised people and how we can be more aware of our behavior through the pandemic to help immunocompromised people like her. She shares with us her mindset that got her through this extraordinarily difficult time and the quote she lives her life by. It's a remarkable story you'll definitely be inspired by. If you'd like more information on organ donation, please reach out to Meghan @mcunningham on instagram or visit the UPMC Living Donor Transplant Services.
