Awakening Aphrodite

If you’re interested in the heroine’s journey, the prevalence of the Goddess and matriarchal societies throughout human evolution or harmonizing your own internal masculine and feminine energies, this episode is for you!

In today’s introspective solocast, I draw on a major theme of this show: Reawakening the goddess in YOU to bring healing, spiritual connection and empowerment to all life on our endangered planet. This show exists to promote the ideal of holism as an alternative to the imbalanced and struggling system within which we live. It is a fact that our modern society emerged from a blueprint drawn up by the patriarchy that excludes the archetypal Feminine within us all– symbolized by the intuitive, the spiritual and the cyclical, regenerative nature of life. In valuing competition and exploitation above all else, humans have dissociated from the feminine half of the balanced duality of which all is born. Denying the Feminine within us has generated a cascade of worldwide issues: from the normalization of chronic stress (and the multitude of mental and physical health issues directly caused as a result) to the devastating effects of the undeniably anthropogenic seventh mass extinction.

I named this show Awakening Aphrodite because I, like many, was heavily inundated into living imbalanced in the masculine polarity of myself. I begin this episode by sharing my personal experience with burnout, trauma and shutting down my Feminine, referring to The Heroine's Journey: Woman's Quest For Wholeness by Maureen Murdock, As Above So Below by Ronald S. Miller and Dr. Jean Shinoda Bolen’s research for the mythology, anthropology and facts on the oppression and need for the Feminine in all aspects of life. I tell the ancient Greek tale of Persephone and relate her journey to the Jungian subconscious and the human need to acknowledge sacred rites of passage. I also discuss the rise and fall of egalitarian societies, the idea of “God” as a woman, and the symbolism of the feminine-masculine dynamic as it relates to ideas, career, creation and rediscovering the heart-connection that joins us all. Please enjoy, subscribe and I'd love to hear your thoughts in a review or comment!

Welcome to one of the most fun, comprehensive and honest discussions ever about calling in and KEEPING conscious relationships and how to navigate through the sometimes rocky, sometimes confusing, but otherwise super important waters of the masculine-feminine dynamic within them and ourselves! My guest today is Aleks Rybchinskiy and as soon as we met, he became a dear friend (you know when you "just know"!?) whose vibrant passion and curiosity for life comes across through his work, relationships and record-breaking achievements. In fact, Aleks is one of the youngest professionals to ever reach a Level 4 training in the prestigious CHEK institute and he has worked in holistic health for 12 years, providing top-level healing services as one of less than 1000 elite practitioners worldwide.

This episode is centered around relationships: the human relationship with death, how to communicate with your soul, why we need to connect with our authentic selves and, most significantly, how to call in and maintain a conscious soulmate relationship. Aleks shares some incredible relationship advice that I wish I’d heard when I was much younger. Trust me– whether you’re manifesting your soulmate, maintaining a relationship or questioning whether your current partner is THE ONE, you’ll learn something in this fascinating and intimate discussion. Aleks speaks from personal relationship experience with his amazing wife Sara Gustafson, who you can meet (twice!) in episodes 64 and 65 on Awakening Aphrodite.

In  this episode you’ll also hear Aleks and I talk about what it’s like to personally work with Paul Chek as students and clients. Aleks tells tales of chasing and nearly missing death as an adrenaline junkie and helps us to understand the dangers of confusing a lack of chaos in life with being bored. I share my thoughts on plant medicines in our conversation about the ego and the soul, and Aleks clears up misconceptions about “surrender” and what that word really means. I also ask Aleks to speak on what it means to be masculine in the modern world, and how a man can successfully balance the feminine within themselves and authentically relate to the women in their lives.

Lastly, Aleks advises us to practice “scaring” your dates away (haha!) with honesty! Meaning: get good at showing potential partners who you really are, and if they stick around you’ll have something to work with!

Nicole Devaney is a shining example of a woman who is truly living in her Goddess nature. She is a faculty instructor at the world-renowned CHEK Institute and considers herself to be a “retired healer and self-employed way-show-er,” as she believes we all intuitively crave to be our most vibrant and healthy selves.

In this empowering episode you may feel as though you are eavesdropping on Nicole & I chatting like two old friends about our lives, dreams and beliefs about who we are as women in this modern culture. I resonate with her as a dancer, entrepreneur and fellow Warrior-Empress living from the wisdom of her soul. Nicole shares the story of her adventurous career in exotic dance and how breaking her spine led her to healing, love and purpose through the holistic health of the CHEK Institute.

We discuss the term “sacred selfishness,” and Nicole explains why it is absolutely okay—and even necessary— to defy the culturally-approved “martyr” identity and care for ourselves with gifts, acceptance (and sometimes chocolate) in a way that may be perceived as selfish. We also take a deep dive into the subject of feminine sexuality and how we can awaken our sacred power as women: from awakening the power in our hips through dance to addressing the myths of peri-menopause and embracing our ever-changing bodies. What would the world be like if we celebrated and acknowledged women’s major life transitions between the phases of Maiden, Mother, Empress-Warrior and Wise Woman-Crone? Lastly, I ask Nicole to share some tips on MANifesting your dream partner, and she gives us the inside-scoop on the spiritual growth she experienced through her past and present romantic relationships. Whew… describing this meaningful & intimate episode barely does it justice, so go get cozy and press play!

Hello and welcome back to the Awakening Aphrodite Podcast! This week’s episode is critically important to the greater conversation on women’s health, female empowerment and awakening the divine feminine within. I am absolutely thrilled to introduce you to Dr. Nathan Riley, an allopathic MD who is also known as the holistic OBGYN. Dr. Riley’s patient-centered approach in medicine is informed by his reverence for the human body, mind and spirit– a perspective that is unfortunately lost on the impersonal, business-centered hospital institutions of our world today. As an OBGYN and provider of Hospice and Palliative Care medicine, Dr. Riley’s holistic practice is uniquely grounded in profound experiences of birth and death. Feeling safe, respected and heard in the healthcare space is absolutely critical, and Dr. Riley’s incredible results and raving testimonials demonstrate how being fully present with his patients allows for healing beyond the physical. 

So, what does “holistic” really mean in healthcare and medicine? This question is a core theme in our discussion of hospital-style care, labor and delivery, birth control, menopause and the hormones that make it all happen. Dr. Riley tells us why he places such high importance on getting to know his patients, and how the “7 minute maximum” allotted appointment time in conventional hospitals limits medical providers’ ability to cultivate a safe and trusting environment. We talk about why many women are traumatized by the birth and delivery process in hospitals and how, without adequate support, that trauma can influence future births. Dr. Riley shares his perspective on perinatal care, home births and…birth control! Are women being accurately informed on the pill, the patch, the ring and other methods, and are there consequences to spending years of our lives absorbing these synthetic hormones? We also discuss the relationship between stress and sexual hormones, and how the busy modern lifestyle can impact our health years into the future, increasing the risk of issues with PMS, endometriosis, fertility, birth and menopause. Like I always say, how you live NOW determines how you’ll live later!

Dr. Nathan Riley is truly a gift to this world and I could not be more excited to share this important episode with you. To collaborate with him as a provider, become his patient or learn more about his amazing practice, visit belovedholistics.com and be sure to check out his podcast! Please share this episode with the women in your life or anyone who may benefit from Dr. Riley’s information! And of course, if you feel called to leave a brief review I would be over the moon and very grateful :)

Looks are deceiving, and that saying goes for your water, too! You can invest in good food and exercise programs, surround yourself with supportive friends and family, and even learn to navigate the ups and downs of life with grace... but if you don’t consider your water to be of equal importance, you will never achieve your peak level of health and performance.

Though properly filtering your water is now absolutely necessary for preventing toxins, contaminants, pesticides, foreign additives and other dangerous pollutants from entering your body, filtration simply is not enough anymore (see my eStore for my favorite home filtration system). 

Water is one of the four key elements of this world, and as a symbol of feelings, emotions and the feminine lifeforce, it is quite more than the amalgamation of two hydrogen molecules and one oxygen. Water intelligently absorbs and transfers information and is highly responsive to electromagnetic sources (including the technical devices we use every day). If that water isn’t coherent, with the proper harmonious molecular structure, absorbing it will cause premature aging, hormone imbalances and disrupted sleeping patterns. NINETY-NINE percent of the molecules in your body are water! The consequences of not being attentive to the quality of water we use, or of even neglecting to understand this invaluable element, are extensive on a mass scale.

My guest today, Rudolf (Dolf) Zantinge, is a hero of mine and an expert in the fields of data mining, AI, IT and Traditional Chinese Medicine. His fascination with the relationship between light and water intensified when his independent research team observed water’s intelligence and sensitivity to electromagnetic forces. They noticed a declining coherence in our planet’s water and the effects of this phenomenon on the mental and physical wellbeing of all life forms. Dolph’s company created the Analemma Wand as a solution for this newly discovered problem… and since using it, I swear my body looks and feels better than before. Dolph’s independent research has shown that properly aligning your water molecules to ensure coherence can reduce your body’s age by between 2-12 YEARS. The Analemma Wand harmonizes the two hemispheres of the brain to enhance intuition and reduce anxiety while restoring our intuitive, instinctual and knowing senses.

And guess what? Listeners of Awakening Aphrodite have a discount on this amazing device! Just visit analemma-water.com and use the code “fitamyTV” at checkout. I promise you’ll love it!

I am thrilled to bring this episode to you and I hope you can share the vital information we discuss with friends and family for the healing of our planet! This show takes a lot of work and resources so I would greatly appreciate it if you would leave a review for me on itunes and share! Thank you so much and please enjoy the show :)

Do you have a favorite animal that carries a special meaning for you?

Have you had any unusual encounters with wildlife in your life?

Are you familiar with your power animals?

Are you looking for Divine Guidance and a stronger sense of intuition and Inner Knowing?

Welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite, my friends! This week’s episode is a sequel to my discussion from Episode 78: A Discussion On “Animal Speak: The Spiritual, Symbolic & Magical Powers Of Creatures Great And Small” By Ted Andrews. As promised, this solocast focuses on power animals and the medicine they offer to empower, support and heal. Whether we are aware of it or not, we humans each hold a special heartfelt connection with specific power animals that resonate with our being. These spiritual animal allies may shift to match our experiences, wounds and strengths as we travel through different chapters of life. Drawing on the wisdom and teachings from Ted Andrews’ popular book, “Animal-Speak: The Spiritual & Magical Powers of Creatures Great & Small,” I share details on the medicine and symbolism of five carefully selected power animals.

Reconnecting with the deeper part of myself that craves communion with nature has rekindled my passion for studying animals, plants and the indigenous cultures that live in harmony with Mother Earth. I believe, as those cultures do, that animals bridge the spiritual and physical realms and have much to teach us. Every creature has a spirit and soul and plays a significant role in the grand scheme of life. How do you discover your own power animals, and what do they represent in your life? I hope you find the answers you’re looking for in this special episode. Please share, subscribe and I would LOVE to hear your thoughts on my podcast in a comment or review!

Can plants "speak"?

Do they communicate?

Can they "learn", have "families", etc?

Dr. Gagliano is an exceptional evolutionary behavioral ecologist who pioneered the field of bio-acoustics and published research on plant cognition: scientifically proving plants' abilities to perceive, learn, remember and communicate with a consciousness not all too different from our own. In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Gaglano shares a story that is also told in her book, “Thus Spoke The Plant,” about how the plants actually instructed her design of the experiment that demonstrated their sentience. Humans are truly not the “superior” species! In fact, plants are our “elders” and have always collaborated and communicated with human societies for food and medicine, a relationship that has unfortunately crumbled in our noisy, consumer-based modern era. Dr. Gagliano emphasizes how becoming open to new forms of communication with the plant kingdom will ultimately lead us back to ourselves, providing the deep connection and groundedness that our society is so desperately seeking right now. She shares with us her experience in Australia’s COVID-19 lockdown and how her relationship with the land helped provide the answers that she intuitively needed to alleviate her perceived isolation. Dr. Gagliano’s approach to both conventional science and the intuitive discoveries beyond are enlightening, inspiring and hold great promise for the healing of our species. So...cozy up and get ready for this heartwarming and eye-opening conversation with the one and only Dr. Monica Gagliano! I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!

The best way to support the Awakening Aphrodite podcast is to share the show with your friends and loved ones! And your iTunes reviews allow me to know that my work is helping and inspiring others! Your feedback is much needed and appreciated! Thank you.

Welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite! I am so happy to have you here for this week’s heartfelt discussion on the essence of divine feminine power, sacred symbology and the beautiful soul-awakening therapy of art and painting! My guest for this episode is Fatima-Zahra Farahate who is a passionate holistic astrologer on a mission to help us all remember our divine nature. This personal and inspiring conversation with Fatima felt so natural and flowed so organically (like we where old friends!) that we didn’t cover nearly as many subjects as I had originally planned so we already scheduled to have her back on the show for a second episode!

As a modern mystic and spiritual mentor who has supported many individuals on their paths to self love and understanding, Fatima is a wealth of intuitive knowledge and wise life experience. Growing up as a young woman in Morocco granted Fatima with a unique perspective on the essence of the divine feminine, which she shares as we discuss the healing effects of balancing the sacred masculine and feminine energies within us. We discover our mutual identities as recovered people pleasers and reveal the healing, reviving and even beautifying effects of drawing healthy emotional boundaries and reclaiming our feminine power.

Fatima shares her knowledge of esoteric symbology and the meaning and everyday uses of commonly known symbols including the yin yang, the circle, the infinity symbol and the ankh. These symbols operate on the plane of the unconscious, so your higher self knows them even if you don’t yet! I tell my personal story of learning to connect to my soul through biogeometry and art therapy, and show Fatima some of the symbology art I was called to create (check out the full YouTube episode to see my art!). This free-flowing and personal conversation is sure to uplift and inspire you to create art, notice the symbols that surround you and connect with your soul.

Please like, share and leave a review to support this show– it means the world to me. I hope you enjoy!

Greetings and welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite! Today’s episode will transform your perspective on the U.S. food system and bring the relief of true hope grounded in rational problem solving for the future of our planet and people. Jim Gale, my guest, is a permaculture expert whose passion for revolutionizing our relationship with the land and our food is simply contagious. His mission is to inspire people all over the world to grow their own food...and here’s the secret: it’s NOT as hard as you think! Jim clears misconceptions about growing your own food by explaining how anyone with a countertop, two minutes and less than a dollar to spare can start cultivating their own organic fruits, roots and veggies with ease. 

Permaculture is a utopian-like food system that involves the designing of self-sustaining food forests and edible landscapes that are regenerative, biodynamic and poison-free in your own backyard. Jim explains how this comprehensible strategy has the potential to end world hunger, reverse mass extinction and end the manipulation and tyranny of our own government and disease-ridden healthcare system. And better yet– this plan costs less time and money than the demands of your current lawn! Permaculture is holistic, natural, sustainable and NECESSARY!

Jim Gale exudes vibrancy and happiness and engages me in this upbeat, educational conversation with integrity and joy. Having experienced a financial journey from net zero to $20 million in his thirties to negative $80 thousand and back, Jim is a master manifester and shares his tips on generating your personal ideas and dreams. He was recently contacted by both his favorite producer and favorite actor of all time to begin his own TV show, called NatureBoy.TV. So let's get cozy, dig into our integrity and truth and tune into this fascinating episode!

If you are ready to be more self-reliant, empowered and part of the solution not only for your own health but for the entire planet but don’t know where or how to start, you can fast-track the process by getting a certified permaculture expert to design a food forest system for your home with Food Forest Landscape Blueprint.

Greetings and welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite! I am beyond excited to share this week’s guest with you and our powerful discussion on goddess archetypes, self-knowledge, mythology’s relevance in the modern world and so much more. My amazing guest, Dr. Jean Shinoda Bolen, is a Jungian analyst, an M.D., a clinical professor of psychiatry, an activist, a diplomat of the American Board of Psychology and Neurology, an NGO permanent representative to the United Nations’ Commission on the status of women, and, among other wonderful things, a prolific author. You may recognize her for her most famous book, Goddesses In Everywoman, a world-famous classic on women’s psychology that uses seven goddess archetypes as a way of describing personalities, behaviors and the true self. I have all of her books and I am just so thrilled to have this wise and accomplished being on my show.

You can look forward to a wide range of topics in this special episode! Our conversation begins with the recent Chinese New Year of the Water Tiger and the optimism it symbolizes as we simultaneously transition from the patriarchal Piscean Age into the egalitarian Age of Aquarius. We dive into the history of humanity and the origin of the goddess and Dr. Jean Shinoda Bolen illuminates the unique artistic aspects of human societies and civilizations.

Together, we debunk myths about mythology and relate ancient Greek tales of gods and goddesses to the psyches of people like you and I in the modern day. In honor of the Aphrodite archetype in me (and for the title of my show!) I ask Dr. Jean Shinoda Bolen some deeper questions about the this alchemical goddess of love and how we can invite more Aphrodite energy into our lives. She illuminates the truth that the sacred feminine archetype is in all things: from the awe humanity experienced upon seeing the Earth from outer space for the first time to the liminal gray areas we each must navigate when making a major life decision or transition in life. We conclude with tips on balancing masculine and feminine energies to live our purpose in harmony. Enjoy!
