In this heartfelt episode of The Circle of Hope, I sit down with the incredibly insightful Chuck Roundtree—sound facilitator, coach, and founder of The Love Affect. Our conversation dives straight into the magic of referrals, but not just as business transactions; Chuck reframes them as acts of love, gratitude, and energetic connection. We unpack stories of how meaningful introductions, like the one made by Reverend Veronica Valles, can catalyze powerful shifts in individuals and communities alike. Through personal anecdotes, Chuck reveals how his career evolved from a high-powered corporate executive in luxury beauty and fashion to a soulful guide facilitating sound baths and holistic healing.

We also unravel the challenges of bridging the spiritual and corporate worlds, the “seesaw” of identity shifts, and the art of knowing when your unique medicine is the right fit—or when it’s time to refer someone lovingly onward. If you’ve ever wondered how to truly differentiate your work, create community that nurtures, or how sound healing can help us reconnect to ourselves and each other, this episode is packed with wisdom, warmth, and practical inspiration.

Watch This If:

• You’re building a business or community based on authentic, heart-centered referrals.
• You’re curious about sound healing, coaching, or alternative healing modalities.
• You find yourself straddling the line between “corporate” and “spiritual” in your work.
• You want to learn how to nurture, grow, and sustain soulful professional relationships.
• You’re seeking new ways to support others (or yourself) through life’s transitions.

Quotes to Remember:

• “There is nothing more precious than somebody you’ve done work with who thinks so highly to engage people they know and love into that work.” — Chuck Roundtree
• “Referrals as an act of love—it makes perfect sense. That’s an exchange, a gift I get to give.” — Valerie Hope
• “We are exclusive, limited-edition beings… you are not going to resonate with all things. The universe is always purpose-driven.” — Chuck Roundtree
• “What brings me joy and what I do? It’s not about being all things to all people—it’s about sharing what worked for me, with love at the center.” — Chuck Roundtree

What You’ll Learn:

• The profound impact of referrals rooted in gratitude, trust, and authentic experience.
• How to identify when your unique talent is the right “medicine”—and when to gracefully refer someone elsewhere.
• What a sound bath is and how sound and energy healing modalities support personal transformation.
• Strategies for building community and collaborations anchored in heart-centered, unconditional love.
• How to navigate shifts in professional identity, and what it means to “live your medicine.”
• Why deep listening, intuition, and safety are essential in coaching and healing work.
