  • 11. YOU Are The Answer: Busting Out of the Box & Embodying Your Full Self with Meditation Guide Solé Romero

    Immerse in a gentle yet cataclysmic explosion of illuminating awareness as soul sister and fellow 

    spiritual teacher, Solé Romero, and I discuss how we create ceremonial space and connect to Source through our energetic gifts and how to come home to yourself using meditation as ceremony. 

    Solé reveals how she weaves Reiki energy healing, shamanic practices, and meditation into her rituals in reverence and remembrance of her highest self. Through connecting with her elevated self, she was able to make peace with darker aspects of the human 3-D experience, from repressed trauma to the overwhelming grief of losing her mother, her best friend, and spiritual guide, who still protects her “from the other room.”  

    As she rigorously explored her inner-landscape during her meditation journey, Solé realized that heart space and that shared connection to all things was missing from the world. Her mantra, heal yourself, heal the world, is an invitation for all to reach inward to come into our full power and live a life embodied in kindness, compassion, and love. 

    The Ceremonial Offering

    Let everything you’re currently carrying fall away and allow your breath to guide you to a place of self-awareness and remembrance of who you are. This gentle, grounded meditation is a mighty call to Source energy and will help you tune into the higher intelligence of the universe. 

    The mantra & essence for today’s episode is: “I AM AN EXPANDED BEING WHO IS KIND.”

  • 10. Healing Your Inner Terrain Through Sacred Land & Wild Animal Stories with Lion Tracker & Author, Boyd Varty

    Boyd Varty generously brings ancient wisdom from the South African wilderness to my Austin, Texas studio in an episode that connects the human heart to the wild and tunes us into the animal kingdom's divine messages.

    As a child, Boyd Varty was raised amongst animals. Lions, leopards, snakes, and elephants co-existed with his family on the Londolozi Game Reserve, who resurrected the arid, unfertile lands into a sanctuary for wild animals to live in peace without fear of being human prey. 

    As Boyd went through his spiritual metamorphoses, he gained a unique appreciation for nature's majestic intelligence and teachings. Even in life-threatening encounters, he returned to the power of presence, whether that was keeping his cool during a crocodile attack, while the world’s deadliest snake, the sacred black mamba, slithered along his body for three minutes, or alone in a treehouse for 40 days in deep contemplation. 

    He wasn't the only one who could feel the energetic current sweep through the reserve. After 27 years in prison, Nelson Mandela visited to recover and re-connect to his surroundings. People worldwide make the pilgrimage every year to track wild animals, attend his retreats, and move through their personal blockages on his reserve. 

    Boyd graciously shares his animal stories, spiritual gifts, and experience as a lion tracker with us today in an adventurous conversation about land connection, conservation, and the collective awakening that transpires through intentional encounters with Mother Earth and her wondrous creatures. 

    The Ceremonial Offering

    This ceremonial offering will take you on a sacred voyage to the wild terrains of Africa. Where you’ll visualize a Marula fruit tree, absorb the energy from her trunk and share a moment with a wild elephant who has traveled to your consciousness to share a special message with you.

  • 9. Working with Spirit Guides & Sharpening Your Intuition with Head Witch of The Moon Deck Aarona Lea

    Today I’m opening the gateway to serious soul sister energy with Aarona Lea, who has devoted the past 25 years of her life to carving and curating a spiritual practice deeply rooted in sacred ritual, intuition and self-love.

    Our conversation sparked flashbacks of the different spiritual chapters in our lives. We’ve experienced enlightening transformations and major spiritual awakenings in cramped studios in Brooklyn and driving through LA traffic and earth-quake realizations moments in Latin America and India. Sometimes a pause, where you honor a quiet moment for yourself, with an altar in your room, is all you need to connect to your highest self. Her potent and powerful The Moon Deck (which she gifted me years ago and I draw from daily), has helped thousands of people tap into their inner-knowing. 

    While walking through the darkness of death and divorce, Aarona was anchored by her spirit guides, animals, and intuition, which helped her find her way back into the light. Today, her story and insights allow you to explore your own shadow spaces, triggers, and traumas. Through which you can examine if your “gut” reactions come from a place of trigger or truth. 

    The Ceremonial Offering

    This three-part ceremony begins with a card reading from The Moon Deck, where we meditate on the significance of the butterfly. Next, Aarona invites us to communicate with our spirit guides in a visualization meditation that roots you to the heart of the earth. Finally, we close the ceremony with a sacred drum and singing circle.

  • 8. Shedding Shame & Secrets Thru Shadow Work & Radical Honesty with Psychedelic Educators Tahkole

    Often in our healing journey, we are called to examine the depths of our darkness. As today's guests, Tah and Kole Whitty, highlight, our shadow can cause anguish and pain beyond measure if we allow it to remain unfaced. 

    The pain from sexual abuse, childhood trauma, or destructive familial relationships can manifest in various addictive lifestyle patterns. As one pursues a short-term connection through sex, drugs, perfectionism, and people-pleasing, a complex web of shame and dis-ease displaces the physical and mental body.

    Ceremony Circle is a sacred container for every story, and Tah and Kole's episode comes with a trigger warning. No topic is off the table as we delve into their individual experiences with addiction and profound childhood and sexual trauma.  

    This is a rich and rewarding roundtable chat with two powerful individuals who found personal freedom by shedding their secrets to the world, taking back their sovereignty, and curating a life based on uninhibited self-expression, play, and psychedelic and plant-medicine ceremonies. 

    The Ceremonial Offering

    Music and song are magical tools that Tahkole use to express themselves. Tah treats us to a freestyle rap celebrating his conscious partnership with Kole and gratitude for life.

  • 7. Dropping Judgments & Connecting Up to the Akashic Records with Daniela Gil

    Today we are swimming in the ethers of the Akashic Records: the universe’s energetic imprint of everything that has happened, is happening, and could happen. 

    Daniela Gil is a gifted reader and soul sister, who’s life’s path changed forever during a heart-opening Akashic Reading with her mother. It altered her perspective on their relationship and plunged her headfirst into this life-long mission as a spiritual facilitator, devoted to the elevation of consciousness and pursuit of greater love. 

    To rise into these ethereal realms, Daniela overcame a series of profound challenges in the material plane. She reveals how she flushed out toxicity in her life, with voyages through her darkness and shadow before she finally stepped into her Dharma. 

    In this interactive episode, Daniela will also open my records, shedding light on my life shifts and she also generously answers a number of listener questions as well! 

    Want to read your own Akashic Records? Daniela offers beautiful tools, guidance, and downloads for you to do just that, should you feel called to receive its wisdom. 

    The Ceremonial Offering

    Today’s multi-faceted ceremony begins with a prayer to ground the collective energy before opening my records. We delve into my spiritual and professional journey, where I’ll also reveal my other spiritual name and purpose here on Mother Earth. Afterward, Daniela answers questions from our incredible listeners and transmits a powerful intuitive message & invitation to live as your highest self for all.

  • 6. Dissolving Illusion & Denial to Embody the Divine Masculine with Aubert Bastiat

    I’m so excited to invite you to share space today with a very dear brother of mine and such a beautiful soul, Aubert Bastiat. To arrive at a place of harmony and authentic connection to Source, Aubert reveals how he got himself back up from a cycle of low-vibrational living by experiencing a true live or die moment that connected him to God and literally shook him to his core. 

    So began his healing journey of shadow-work, self-discovery, and a life dedicated to God and spiritual service. He co-founded and birthed Sacred Sons: a healing space created for men to break through – and free from – the oppressive shackles of toxic masculinity, unhealed shadows, wounds and more. This conscious collective carves a unique space for healthy masculine alchemy to emerge and rise into the ethers through transformational workshops and retreats. 

    We discuss how feminine/masculine energies reveal themselves, the shedding of past selves, releasing from illusions, wounds, separation and denial, his #1 tip for getting into a place of readiness for sacred romantic partnerships, and the ways you can step into your power by integrating the experiences from the beautiful, wild ride we call life. 

    The Ceremonial Offering

    Today’s medicine drumming journey is an incredibly powerful and potent one. It invites you to connect to a space where you can receive on a soul level. Close your eyes and allow the drumbeat to dissolve the walls between matter and spirit and reveal its unique message to you.

  • 5. Honoring Ancient Ways & Medicine Names with Eaglewoman: Doctor of the Soul

    Get ready because this is one of the most epic and powerful interviews I’ve ever done. As a former radio & tv talk show host, I’ve literally done thousands of interviews and this one is right at the top. For those of you who have already begun to support and sit with us for Ceremony Circle Podcast, you know that I always highly recommend creating a sacred, honoring space when listening to the episodes and I especially recommend doing this for your time with myself and honored guest, Shaman and spiritual master, Eaglewoman. If you feel called, you can even wear a shawl or scarf to cover your shoulders while listening, to honor her Native tradition.

    I felt chills, zaps, mega potent energy, deep soul liberation and even tears during my time with her. Her embodied spiritual gifts and wisdoms pierced through my being during this recording and our private session and I definitely came to fully understand why she was bestowed the named Eaglewoman and also why many call her a Doctor of the Soul and Spiritual Electrician. 

    I am still charged from the experience, and it's my honor to transmit her transcendental eagle medicine to this sacred community.

    This all-encompassing episode details her awakening, service, and role as a medicine woman. She unveils her spirit name's roots with a detailed recollection of the life-changing ceremony with the Blackfoot Native American Tribe, the ancient principles she follows to honor her Native American lineage, and her gifts as a seer of human soul grids. We bond over the immense responsibility of answering the Shamanic call and the absolute vital importance of doing it with honor, integrity and respect. Eaglewoman also answers the very beautiful and mindful questions that my audience on Instagram submitted.

    Lastly, she gifts us all a dose of her Eagle Breath Medicine, a life-enriching ritual in sacred reciprocity with Mother Earth, that is infinite in the benefits it can provide you.

    If you resonate with Eaglewoman’s message and feel called to donate to vulnerable Native American women and children, you can do so by visiting uaii.org.


    The Ceremonial Offering

    Sit up nice and tall and connect with your life source, which resides three fingers below your belly button. This is the space you will breathe from to connect to the infinite circle of light, the “Creator/Creation Connect,” and be fed with “creators juice.” Do this every day to enrich your day with light, love, and intuitive guidance. 

    You can take the practice deeper using Eagle Breath Medicine, a four-breath count which helps purify and expand your wings to cleanse your immune system, bring immense clarity and calm your body.

  • 4. Trippy Visions & Lightbulb Moments with Lucia Light Guide Allison Pelissier

    As a multi-dimensional traveler and Shaman, I have had profound visions and reflections with the Lucia N°03, a neurostimulator that emits flickering lights at different frequencies to expand consciousness. One of the most beautiful aspects of this light, however, is that it does not take experience working in other dimensions to have potent and powerful journeys that can involve sacred geometry, spirit visitations, shamanic visions, kaleidoscopes of technicolor shows and much more.

    Speaking to Lucia Light Expert Allison Pelissier in Sedona was an illuminating and electrifying experience. She’s a pure and embodied being and our time together provided what I call the “Divine tingles” throughout my body as she so generously shared her profound journeys with the Lucia light and her calling to bring the light to the world. We discuss the importance of creating sacred ceremony even when working with consciousness technology, being visited by loved ones who have crossed over, reading the messages behind the sacred geometry and kaleidoscope visions, and how to unpack and integrate each experience, big and small, into your everyday life.

    The Ceremonial Offering:

    Bathe in the soothing sounds of a guided voyage with an instrument called the Monalini. This life-affirming journey will re-connect you to your full, bright, and whole self. As you return to your core essence, Allison invites you to call upon your spirit guides and spiritual support system to celebrate everything you’ve done and will do on your journey here on earth.

  • 3. Limitless Living & Lucid Dreaming with Drew Canole

    I reached out to renowned entrepreneur and author Drew Canole telepathically and just a day later  “randomly” ran into him in a juice bar in Sedona, AZ. I felt such a serendipitous connection to his mysterious medicine, which is hard to define but impossible to not feel in every one of our blessed encounters that ensued since coming back together as soul fam this lifetime. 

    Drew shares very powerfully how he became the phoenix rising and broke free from past torture, trauma and imprinted patterning to create an embodied and successful personal and professional life. Drew vividly explains of exploring the unseen depths of his existence through lucid dreaming and conscious action, a robust spiritual medicine mix that has liberated him (and thousands of loyal followers) to take their power back and live a rich life of unbridled sovereignty in glorious technicolor. 

    Drew’s life journey highlights a sacred truth: we are not owned by our past. What was done to us can work for us if we explore the depths of ourselves and existence.

    The Ceremonial Offering

    Drew’s morning ritual extracts alchemy from Mother Earth and sets the stage for the day ahead. He shares how to give reverence for mind, body, and spirit through nutrition, affirmations, exercise,  prayer, and conscious interaction. Commit to the practice and watch your life unfold in ways you’ve never imagined possible!

  • 2. Visiting Past Lives & Healing Self-Sabotage with Hypnotist Uri Lee

    A kismet encounter with hypnotist Uri Lee in Sedona, AZ led to a truly life-altering hypnotic journey where I connected to my past life as a ruler in Egypt 5000 years ago. Unbeknownst to me, precisely the painful relics from that era were playing out in my present life, creating debilitating fears that were holding me back from sharing my full mission with the world.

    Uri’s natural-born ability to open the curtain to the subconscious, uproot memories (many of them ancient), and holistically heal self-sabotaging behaviors is truly inspiring. I’m so excited to introduce her to this sacred community and share with you the intricacies of her practice, and give you all a taste of her wonderful gifts as a hypnotic healer. 

    Uri’s Ceremonial Offering 

    You’ll be treated to an abbreviated sample of Uri’s hypnotic gifts. This meditative voyage will transport you to a self-created garden, where you’ll step into your subconscious to study your life challenges, like scenes from a movie. With Uri’s beautiful guidance and powerfully held safe space, you’ll find the key to unlock the root cause, confront the past energy you’re carrying, and walk away feeling liberated and aligned with the universe. We encourage you to find a comfortable place, disconnected from external distractions, to fully reap the benefits of this session.
