Clairannoyance

Ryan is flying solo on this episode...MISS YOU MEGAN! She'll be back on the next one, promise! 

Continuing our monthly astrology series, we're looking at the astrology of June 2023 and filling you in on the planetary movements taking place in the month ahead. Sorry this is coming a few days into June, but you'll still have most of the month to prepare for!

June is packed with planetary movements, but less chaotic overall than the past few months. We're talking about it with some high-level themes and going all-in on the concept of creativity and artistry this month, rather than going super in-depth by referencing every little move the planets are making. That said, there are some key transits we discuss as well including Jupiter and the North Node conjunct in Taurus, Venus entering Leo, the Sun and Mercury entering Cancer, Saturn and Neptune turning retrograde, plus information about the New Moon and Full Moons this month. 

How do you think the cosmic energies will play out for you this June? What's your sunset looking like these days? 

P.S. Here's the book I referenced & read quotes from in this episode: The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron

We’re living in strange times. Seemingly overnight, it became “cool” to be on a journey of self-discovery. This led to the rise of many spiritual modalities in recent years, but one modality continues to be an enigma for many people: Human Design. Drawing from a fusion of ancient wisdom and cutting edge insights, Human Design is a relatively new practice that blends astrology, the I Ching, the Kabbalah, and quantum physics. It offers a profound understanding of our individuality and the interconnectedness of all beings. It’s a powerful tool when used correctly, but a difficult one to wrap your head around.

Clairannoyance co-hosts Megan Lund and Ryan Marquardt are joined by special guest Maile Jackson, a human potential expert who uses Human Design to help businesses and entrepreneurs live out their highest potential and build businesses of their dreams. She brilliantly demystifies Human Design as a modality while educating us on its complexities. From distinguishing between the 5 personality types, to shedding light on the differences between astrology and Human Design, Maile comes well-prepared with her down-to-earth approach, infectious humor, and unbeatable experience in the field. Listen in as we traverse numerous topics including the challenges of understanding Human Design in an oversaturated spiritual influencer culture, to the strange origin story of the modality. Are all of our pets really going to walk away from us in 2027?! Did the founder of Human Design really have sex with an alien?! We cover it all.

Ultimately, Maile shows us that by understanding each other’s Human Design, we can meaningfully improve our self-understanding and our relationships with each other, empowering us to work, live and love together in more natural and fulfilling ways.

Maile Jackson is a seasoned professional with over 13 years of experience in sales and sales leadership roles. With a remarkable track record of success, she has presented to numerous C-Suite executives and facilitated over $20 million in closes throughout her career. Maile's journey of self-evolution led her to discover Human Design, which she seamlessly combined with her sales expertise to assist purpose-driven and spiritual business owners. Her distinct approach, rooted in understanding each individual's unique design, has enabled her to help hundreds of entrepreneurs create sustainable businesses while staying aligned with their purpose.

Part 3 of 3 — Go back to Parts 1 & 2 if you missed them!

In the conclusion of our Toxic Positivity series, co-hosts Megan Lund and Ryan Marquardt dismantle the myth of forced positivity and reveal the extraordinary truth behind its efficacy. Armed with scientific research and endless personal experiences, you'll discover practical strategies to help retrain your brain for positivity, including how to identify and transform negative thinking patterns. We also discuss the novel concept of pronoia — the opposite of paranoia, and probably one of our new favorite words ever created. We share the benefits of positive affirmations, which we'll be creating on a monthly basis for listeners to focus on each month moving forward, and we discuss how to flip negative phrases into empowering ones so you can nurture a more positive outlook on a consistent basis. Your mind is mysterious, but the science around positive thinking is not a mystery at all. It can lead to a life filled with more authenticity, more resilience, better relationships, improved health, and help you find more meaning in life.

From reducing stress and depression, to fostering better relationships, to reducing the chance of death from cancer and even contributing to a longer lifespan of 7.5 years, positivity has been thoroughly studied and affirmed to hold life-changing power. We explore the intricacies of gratitude, manifestation, and the fascinating placebo/nocebo effect, challenging common misconceptions along the way. Unlocking the potential of a positive mindset can help you discover and embrace ways of viewing life that profoundly reshape your habits, your health, your relationships, and your world.

In the realm of psychology (and in the realm of everyone's Instagram), the concept of toxic positivity has provoked intense debate and polarizing opinions. However, a deeper exploration into scientific literature reveals a thought-provoking paradox: the potential benefits of what some are quick to deem as toxic. In Part 1 of this series, co-hosts Megan Lund and Ryan Marquardt explore the intricacies of relentless positivity, highlighting research and sharing personal stories that challenge popular assumptions. Brace yourself for an intellectual journey that unravels the complex relationship between positivity and well-being, leaving you with a fresh perspective on the emotional, mental, social and physical power of "toxic positivity" (which is a term that probably needs to be rebranded at this point).

Generally defined as an overemphasis on positivity to the point of suppressing negative emotions, this episode highlights the subjective nature of the term. While also recognizing the "negative" effects associated with toxic positivity, Megan and Ryan present thought-provoking counter-arguments and propose new dialogue around the issue. Navigating  various aspects of toxic positivity, Megan and Ryan dish on everything from emotional suppression, spiritual bypassing and spiritual narcissism to the cult of positivity, the impact of toxic positivity on marginalized communities, and the correlation between toxic positivity and capitalism. While acknowledging the concerns and criticisms surrounding this new age buzzword, Megan and Ryan offer compelling insights, drawing from their own experiences and research, to present a more nuanced perspective.

Amidst the discussion, they also highlight the positive effects of what some may label as toxic positivity, such as a longer life expectancy, improved physical health, increased resilience, enhanced creativity and productivity, greater happiness and life satisfaction, improved mental health, more satisfying relationships and beyond. They draw a connection between spirituality and toxic positivity, exploring how new age concepts like The Law of Attraction and The Law of Assumption can be both beneficial and misguided.

Part 1 sets the stage, asking listeners to consider if it's possible to uphold a persistently positive outlook on life without sacrificing authenticity or refusing to engage in the prismatic emotional experiences that come with being human. Approaching the topic with an open-minded passion and a knack for playing devil's advocate, Megan and Ryan seek to create a space where diverse perspectives can be shared and understood. Stay tuned for Part 2, where they will further explore intricate themes related to toxic positivity, reveal eye-opening research that represents all sides of this debate, and offer credible action steps that will help you be more nimble with negative and positive mindsets.

Our obsession with keeping up appearances is nothing new, but we're officially in a "compare and despair" era now. Humanity's fixation on the beauty industry, which is estimated to be worth $800 billion by 2025, has brought us to a point where aesthetic standards have the power to completely shape our inner worth. If our emotional, mental and spiritual well-being suffocates for the sake of maintaining a glamorous facade, what's the real cost? It's time to go beneath the surface — and we don't mean botox (but we're pro-botox, too). We're transcending the shallow definition of beauty and exploring the interconnectedness of inner and outer radiance.

Co-hosts Megan Lund and Ryan Marquardt embark on a captivating conversation with Mikaela MacLean, an Auric Aesthetician and  founder of Energetic Aesthetics & Beauty Sleep Reiki. Mikaela focused on physical healing for 20+ years as a medical aesthetician, and now she's working with spiritual healing modalities, bringing her energetic gifts and wisdom the material world. She's become a powerful voice in the realm of holistic beauty and opens up in this episode about the delicate balance between materiality and spirituality. This episode aims to help you redefine beauty as an energetic expression of the soul, one that goes beyond our conditioning, capitalistic pressures, and social media expectations. 

The liberating truth is that beauty isn't merely a superficial concept. It isn't found in the aisles of a department store, or sitting in a salon chair, or hiding under a surgeon's scalpel. It resides within you, ready to be expressed so you can project yourself out into the world as the purest, most badass version of yourself. 

Mikaela MacLean is the founder and creator of Energetic Aesthetics & Beauty Sleep Reiki, as well as the host of the podcast, BEAUTY BY DESIGN. Following her extensive background as a medical aesthetician, Mikaela now artfully blends an unconventional mélange of healing modalities including Aesthetics, Human Design, Astrology, Yoga Nidra, meditation, Reiki and more. As an educator, she brings her unique synthesis of these methods to the Aesthetics community, helping them elevate their careers by moving beyond the status quo for the greatest benefit of their patients & clients. 

Key Takeaways in this Episode

• Meet Mikaela and see how she weaves the material and spiritual worlds together to craft a more authentic experience with beauty
• Learn how products, procedures, and other people can hinder your personal relationship with beauty
• Gain insight about the ways social media and aging have altered our perceptions of beauty and inflated the industry

Mental health is not just more accepted in mainstream circles, it's practically trendy to have a therapist now. Same goes with spirituality - I mean, you have your tarot reader on speed dial, right? While spiritual work has existed long before mental health came into being, it was always - and continues to be - an unregulated field. On the other hand, mental health has grown rapidly in the past 100 years and is now recognized as a highly organized system embedded in science and culture with steep requirements for accreditation and a serious level of oversight.

Co-hosts Megan Lund and Ryan Marquardt sit with guest Ryan Hagan to compare and contrast our understandings of mental health and spirituality. Ryan takes us from the past to the present and peels back where we're heading in the future. From a young age, it was apparent Ryan had incredible psychic sensibilities, but he suppressed them early on. As life progressed, Ryan came into both mental health and spirituality as valid disciplines for his own healing, and for tools he can leverage to help heal other people. Looking forward, Ryan reveals where he thinks all this "stuff" is heading. 

Ultimately, it's clear that the divide between mental health and spirituality is artificial and limiting. Not only can they intersect -- they can co-exist. 

Ryan Hagan is a Nashville-based singer-songwriter, energy medicine practitioner, psychic-medium, and life coach. With gifts emerging since childhood, Ryan went off to college and became fascinated by the human mind. He studied Social Psychology and Communications and continued his journey advocating for mental health and wellness in the early days of his music career. Ryan’s globally-acclaimed music has topped the radio charts in the U.K. alongside Beyoncé, Ariana Grande, and The Weeknd. Ryan is a multidisciplinary energy healer, Reiki Master, tarot reader, psychic medium and more, leveraging modalities including quantum touch, hypnotic meditative healing, past life regression. 

Key Takeaways in this Episode

• Meet Ryan and see how he connects in the spiritual really while staying grounded in the real world
• Explore the divide between these two practices, and learn why they should unite
• Gain a fascinating look at the future of healing, where science and spirituality continue to grow together
