ConsciousSHIFT with Julie Ann Turner

Jonathan Fields, Julie Ann's guest on ConsciousSHIFT and author of "Uncertainty: Turning Fear and Doubt into Fuel for Brilliance," shares:
[Uncertainty is] about the nutty things we do, the gremlins we battle, the decisions we make and actions we take in the pursuit of long-term, large-scale creative, artistic, entrepreneurial, and organizational greatness."

Credited with founding a new human potential movement that has enabled millions to realize their creative dreams with her book "The Artist's Way," Julia Cameron - author of the new book "THE PROSPEROUS HEART" - eschews the title creativity expert, preferring instead to describe herself simply as an ARTIST - deeply in alignment with the philosopy of ConsciousSHIFT.
“Artists have always mentored, I just do it on a wider scale,” Julia says - and she has.
Julia has had a remarkable career, which in turn has given remarkable help to others.

Our patience with fear has run out.

James Olson, author of "The Whole-Brain Path to Peace: The Role of Left- and Right-Brain Dominance in the Polarization and Reunification of America,"
will share how brain dominance affects issues from personal relationships to governmental policy, religion, and even war and peace - highlighting the often tragic distortions that can result from the simple lack of balance of our hemispheres - and reveals how
a better understanding of the whole brain can faciliate
personal transformation, as well as peace on a larger scale.

Bestselling creativity expert Michael Michalko, author of Thinkertoys - and of the new book, Creative Thinkering - agrees with Julie Ann (as she shares in her 3-book series, "A Creator's Guide") and our ConsciousSHIFT audience that, in every field of endeavor — from business and science to government, the arts, and even day-to-day life — natural creativity is often limited by the prejudices of logic and the structures of accepted categories and concepts.

David performs this poem - which was inspired by the new book, "Start Something that Matters", by TOMS Founder & Chief Shoe Giver Blake Mycoskie - with such great heart and deep passion, it is impossible not to be moved to draw from your own deep passion and shift into action, by the energy and message expressed.

As Leela says, "The world needs evolutionary entrepreneurs who have evolved themselves to the point that they're capable of serving and guiding the process of conscious business emergence."
There is a sense we are at a critical junction in the unfolding of our human story, and so many feel called to participate and make a huge contribution by creating an evolutionary business that will shift humanity in a better direction.
